Book Description
Excerpt from Border Methodism and Border Slavery: Being a Statement and Review of the Action of the Philadelphia Annual Conference Concerning Slavery, at Its Late Session at Easton, Pa;, Including the Case of Rev. J. D. Long: The Slaveholding Among Members of the Body: The Extent and Character of Slaveho Eighteen years of itinerant labor in the Philadelphia Conference, expended on each of the districts within our geographical limits, seven of which were spent in slaveholding portions of our territory, together with as careful observation as we were capable of bestow ing, have given us impressions such as we would humbly contribute to the joint stock of suggestion and fact which create the popular Opinion of the church. Between the representations made at the last General Conference in regard to the church's administration of her Discipline on the question of slavery, and the convictions of the writer, there is, he confesses, the widest possible variance. That our laws are faithfully administered on this subject, and that little or no mercenary slave holding obtains ia our church, we are very far from regarding as cor rect statements of fact. In relation to the Philadelphia Conference especially, we speak with the certainty which local knowledge of facts is always supposed to give. With regard also to the number of slaveholders in the church, as announced at the last session of the General Conference, and given upon the authority of an honored name in the church, it will be seen we have arrived at a greatly larger estimate even for our Conference.

Not illustrated. 1858 edition. Excerpt: ... the itinerancy for many years, generally in the slaveholding portions of her territory. He was taken ill and died while preacher in charge of Zion Circuit, Cecil Co., Md. The date of his death, as may be learned from our Annual Conference minutes, was August 6, 1852. He resided, as we learn, at the time of his death, about one and a half miles from the Pennsylvania line, and from the village known as the Brick Meeting House, part of which little village is in Chester Co., Pa., and part in Cecil Co., Md. After his death a will, supposed to have been written in his sickness, and which was in his own handwriting, was found. In this will, after directing the disposal of his other effects, he speaks of seven slaves, slaves for life, who, by that last will and testament, are given their liberty. These slaves were midway down the Peninsula in Maryland, and were there hired out to various persons. The will was not signed by the deceased, and was not attested by witnesses. To establish its validity it was necessary to prove the handwriting of the deceased minister. Fortunately, Rev. Dr. Boone, a member of the Conference, now in Philadelphia, and who acted as his executor, succeeded in doing this through the agency of Rev. A. Manship, agent of the Tract Society of our Conference, and another individual. It appears that the deceased had given Brother Manship his first license to exhort some ten or twelve years before his death, and Brother Manship had retained that license, and besides that scrap of writing, had seen and was familiar with the handwriting of the deceased. Upon thus establishing the will, the intention of the deceased was thus carried out, and the slaves, after about one year from the time of his death, were permitted for the first...
