Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Century of Service: The History of Central Methodist Episcopal Church, Written in Commemoration of the One Hundredth Anniversary of the Incorporation of the First Methodist Episcopal Society of the City of Detroit, Michigan For a hundred and twelve years Central Church has had a continuous existence as a religious body. For one hundred years it has had a legal corporate existence. And it is just about to celebrate the one hundredth anniversary of its incorporation. It has been a church of great voices. The present structure was erected as a result of the pastorate of that amazing genius of a man, Dr. James I. Buckley, the most distinguished Methodist of his generation. For many later years he wielded such power as the editor of a great paper as rarely comes to the lot of the men of the pen. And decade after decade he was the supreme master of debate in great and far-gathered councils of Christian statesmen. The gracious and urbane Ninde; Leete, the brilliant and effective organizer; and Smith, the dynamo of kindlingenergy and hearty human activity, went out from its pulpit and were called to the exercise of the functions of the episcopate. Dr. George Elliott, versatile and erudite, with 1 range of reading and a variety of mental interest at which men marvelled, made the pulpit of Central Church his throne and later came to the editorship of the Methodist Review, which is the oldest magazine of sacred learning in America.
