Book Description
Excerpt from A History of the Methodist Church, South, in the United States IN a history confined to brief limits, only a general out line-oi leading events can be given. The leading events in the history Of the Methodist Episcopal Church, South, took place, for the most part, in connection with the General Conferences. This fact has largely determined the plan and order Of treatment in the present instance. It is true, also, that in the case Of the Southern Methodist Church the action Of the various General Conferences has been, throughout, representative, in a singular degree, Of the thoughts, views, and status Of the membership at large. But for these considerations the scheme Of treatment ac cording to General Conferences might seem arbitrary and artificial.

Book Description
Excerpt from The Methodist Episcopal Church in the South Is the Methodist Episcopal Church, by its efforts to establish and extend itself in the States which were once known as Slave States, violating any right of any other Church; and this, of course, means any right of the Methodist Episcopal Church, South? In trying to answer this question, I have in mind, at the present moment, not so much what may have been said at any time by ministers of our own Church in the North, as what ministers and members of our Church, in the prosecution of their work in the South, are not unfrequently compelled to hear from ministers and members of the Methodist Episcopal Church, South, in regard to our presence in their midst. It is affirmed by them that we are out of our place in being in the South; that, agreeably to the Plan of Separation adopted by the General Conference of 1844, the South was set apart as the field of operation for the Methodist Episcopal Church, South, while the Methodist Episcopal Church was expected to limit its labors to the North.
