The First Wesleyan General Conference--Elected President --The Secret-society Question--On the Verge of an Explosion--Elected Editor--Homeward Bound--A Terrible Storm. WHEN the General Conference assembled, Orange Scott was elected president on the first ballot, but declined. On a second ballot I was elected. I expected a stormy time, yet I accepted and took the chair, and the Conference proceeded to business. While appointing the standing committees a motion was made to appoint a committee on secret societies. This waked up the disturbing element which came so near breaking us up in the Utica convention. I dreaded it as much as I would a tornado, and I soon found I had one on hand. It was not yet known where I stood, which, I believe, was fortunate, otherwise I do not believe I could have held the Conference in the struggle. The committee was ordered . amid much excitement, and the vote indicated that the anti-secret society men had a small majority. The committee in due time reported a rule excluding the members of all secret societies from the Church. It was urged by Smith, Walker, and others, and opposed by Scott, Horton, and others. Scott and Horton were cool debaters, but Smith was all fire and flame on this subject. Had the question been on the admission of the devil into the Church he could not have been more furious. He could not wait to reply to Scott's arguments; he denounced them and the man that advanced them, and I had to call him to order. This only roused the lion in him still more, and, looking terribly at me, he declared he would not come to order; and I do not know but some of the timid ones expected to see me swallowed whole, as he was a very large and powerful man. I faced him sternly and said, "You...

Book Synopsis North Star Country by : Milton C. Sernett
Download or read book North Star Country written by Milton C. Sernett and published by Syracuse University Press. This book was released on 2001-12-01 with total page 396 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: North Star Country is the story of the remarkable transformation of Upstate New York's famous 'Burned over District;' where the flames of religious revival sparked an abolitionist movement that eventually burst into the conflagration of the Civil War. Milton C. Sernett details the regional presence of African Americans from the pre-Revolutionary War era through the Civil War, both as champions of liberty and as beneficiaries of a humanitarian spirit generated from evangelical impulses. He includes in his narrative the struggles of great abolitionists—among them Harriet Tubman, Frederick Douglass, Gerrit Smith, Beriah Green, Jermain Loguen, and Samuel May—and of many lesser-known characters who rescued fugitives from slave hunters, maintained safe houses along the Underground Railroad, and otherwise furthered the cause of freedom both regionally and in the nation as a whole. Sernett concludes with a compelling examination of the moral choices made during the Civil War by upstate New Yorkers—both black and white—and of the post-Appomattox campaign to secure freedom for the newly emancipated.

Book Synopsis Methodism in the American Forest by : Russell E. Richey
Download or read book Methodism in the American Forest written by Russell E. Richey and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2015-03-31 with total page 239 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Winner of the 2015 Saddleback Selection Award from the Historical Society of The United Methodist Church During the nineteenth century, camp meetings became a signature program of American Methodists and an extraordinary engine for their remarkable evangelistic outreach. Methodism in the American Forest explores the ways in which Methodist preachers interacted with and utilized the American woodland, and the role camp meetings played in the denomination's spread across the country. Half a century before they made themselves such a home in the woods, the people and preachers learned the hard way that only a fool would adhere to John Wesley's mandate for preaching in fields of the New World. Under the blazing American sun, Methodist preachers sought and found a better outdoor sanctuary for large gatherings: under the shade of great oaks, a natural cathedral where they held forth with fervid sermons. The American forests, argues Russell E. Richey, served the preachers in several important ways. Like a kind of Gethesemane, the remote, garden-like solitude provided them with a place to seek counsel from the Holy Spirit. They also saw the forest as a desolate wilderness, and a means for them to connect with Israel's years after the Exodus and Jesus's forty days in the desert after his baptism by John. The dauntless preachers slashed their way through, following America's expanding settlement, and gradually sacralizing American woodlands as cathedral, confessional, and spiritual challenge-as shady grove, as garden, and as wilderness. The threefold forest experience became a Methodist standard. The meeting of Methodism's basic governing body, the quarterly conference, brought together leadership of all levels. The event stretched to two days in length and soon great crowds were drawn by the preaching and eventually the sacraments that were on offer. Camp meetings, if not a Methodist invention, became the movement's signature, a development that Richey tracks throughout the years that Methodism matured, to become a central denomination in America's religious landscape.
Book Synopsis Secret Lives of the Underground Railroad in New York City by : Don Papson
Download or read book Secret Lives of the Underground Railroad in New York City written by Don Papson and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2015-01-28 with total page 311 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the fourteen years Sydney Howard Gay edited the American Anti-Slavery Society's National Anti-Slavery Standard in New York City, he worked with some of the most important Underground agents in the eastern United States, including Thomas Garrett, William Still and James Miller McKim. Gay's closest associate was Louis Napoleon, a free black man who played a major role in the James Kirk and Lemmon cases. For more than two years, Gay kept a record of the fugitives he and Napoleon aided. These never before published records are annotated in this book. Revealing how Gay was drawn into the bitter division between Frederick Douglass and William Lloyd Garrison, the work exposes the private opinions that divided abolitionists. It describes the network of black and white men and women who were vital links in the extensive Underground Railroad, conclusively confirming a daily reality.
Book Synopsis Compelling Lives by : Christopher P. Momany
Download or read book Compelling Lives written by Christopher P. Momany and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2023-07-14 with total page 141 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What motivates people to work for justice? Recent studies have moved away from an emphasis on specific principles and toward an understanding of social and cultural forces. But what about times in history when distinct ideas were critical for positive change? The pre-Civil War abolitionist movement represents one such time. During an era when race-based slavery was buttressed by the machinery of civil law, many people developed arguments for freedom and equity that were grounded in divine law. There were Methodist witnesses for justice who lived by this distinction between civil and godly authority. While Methodism, as an institution, betrayed its founding opposition to slavery, many within the movement expressed a prophetic vision. A vibrant counterculture borrowed from Scripture and modern philosophy to argue for a “higher law” of justice. The world-changing ideas that overcame slavery in America were not disembodied and ethereal. They were mediated through the lives of multidimensional individuals. Sojourner Truth, Luther Lee, Laura Haviland, Henry Bibb, and Gilbert Haven were very different from one another. Yet they were animated by similar ideas, grounded in faith, and shaped by a common commitment to human rights.
Download or read book The Liberty Line written by Larry Gara and published by University Press of Kentucky. This book was released on 2013-07-24 with total page 155 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: " The underground railroad—with its mysterious signals, secret depots, abolitionist heroes, and slave-hunting villains—has become part of American mythology. But legend has distorted much of this history. Larry Gara shows how pre-Civil War partisan propanda, postwar remininscences by fame-hungry abolitionists, and oral tradition helped foster the popular belief that a powerful secret organization spirited floods of slaves away from the South. In contrast to much popular belief, however, the slaves themselves had active roles in their own escape. They carried out their runs, receiving aid only after they had reached territory where they still faced return. The Liberty Line puts slaves in their rightful position: the center of their struggle for freedom.
Book Synopsis "Logical" Luther Lee and the Methodist War Against Slavery by : Paul Leslie Kaufman
Download or read book "Logical" Luther Lee and the Methodist War Against Slavery written by Paul Leslie Kaufman and published by Studies in Evangelicalism. This book was released on 2000 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lee (1800-89) was an ordained minister in the Methodist Episcopal Church when he broke away to become one of the founders of Wesleyan Methodism. Eventually he walked away from that as well. Kaufman (history, Allegheny Wesleyan College, Salem, Ohio) explores his life, politics, and theology, focusing especially on the extent to which he impacted the antislavery movement. As both founder and betrayer, Lee remains an ambiguous figure in the church's history. Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
