Book Description
Excerpt from History of the Presbyterian Church in South Carolina, Vol. 2 In the vear 1849, the Synod of South Carolina adopted a scheme for securing a History of the Church covered by their jurisdiction. The scheme was elaborate, embracing many particulars: and it was the pleasure of Svnod to appoint the present writer their Historio grapher. The ofiice involved an amount of labor and consumption of time, in the preparation of the first volume, of whlch he did not have the least conception, although the scheme, as marked out, was not fully aecom plished. The History was to be brought down to 1850, the middle of this Century. In 1870 the first volume was issued, bringing the work down to the year 1800. The volume which is now issued, has been prepared at such intervals as could be secured in vacation, when the author was relieved from his ordinary official duties. As the whole of an ordinary generation has passed away-since the year 1850, the year tn which his appointment extended, it has been the desire of the author to bring the History down more nearly to the present time, and he had, to some extent, received the materials for doing so. But dur ing the past Summer his health began seriously to fail him, and his most judicious friends advised him to stop at the original limit of saying that it was the proper place to stop: that the History of the Church through our-late civil war, and the efforts it put forth in those days of supreme trial and since, deserve a fuller treatment than he could now give it. To this advice he has yielded, and although this did not occur until the work showed manifest allusions in several instances to a later period, he removed from the remainder of his manu script all such references, except those which could not well be erased. Some of the materials furnished from the Churches are brief. Others far more extended, which, in some instances, have been greatlv abbre viated, and in others more amply given. The author is fully conscious of the many defects of his work, and submits the result of his labors to that indulgence of his brethren which it so greatly needs.

Vol. 2, p. 4, and had part of its ministerial labors of the licentiates, Wm. Carlisle and Wm. H. Harris, up to the time of their union with Providence Church at Lowndesville, where a good frame church was erected, and they chose that it should bear the name of Providence. Ibid. The following occurs on p. 179 of the second Vol. of the Minutes of the Presbytery of South Carolina: " William H. Caldwell, elder, petitioned in behalf of a neighborhood lying between Rocky River and Good Hope Churches, that they should be recognized as a church and taken under the care of Presbytery, and that they be known by the name of Providence Church. Whereupon it was resolved that the prayer of the petition be granted, and that the elders, Josiah Patterson, Andrew Giles and Hugh McLinn, be representatives in behalf of Rocky River congregation, to meet the elders, Wm.
