EXPLANATORY
In the statistical tables cents have been omitted, though they were
counted in the additions. The figures in all of the tables were put through^
an adding machine and ought to be correct.
The pictiire of the Conference group was too pale for a good half-tone
plate, so the engraver said.
The price of the Annual remains at 25 cents. Let each preacher sell
the copies sent him and order more. Eemittances should be promptly sent
to the Chattanooga Savings Bank, with plain directions as to what it isj
for, name of charge, etc,

The Woman's Work of the Home Department has every reason to rejoice
in the progress of the past four years. There has been gratifying gain in
membership, and when we recall that the union of the two bodies with such
different methods of work was effected in the quadrennium, which entailed
some confusion, we are indeed grateful to be able to report even financial
gain.
This department is now represented by:
Number. Members.
Adult Auxiliaries 3,678 89,082
Young People's Auxiliaries 888 14,949
Junior Auxiliaries 1,461 35,067
Tolal 6,027 139,098
This makes a gain of 2,078 auxiliaries and 44,076 members. The gain
has been among young people and children, though there are 17,013 more
adults than were listed in 1910.
COLLECTIONS.
The total collections in this department for eonnectional work were as
follows :

CONFERENCE REPORTS.
A
HOLSTON HISTORY.
I have been as busy during the past year as my health would
permit. I have been collecting material for a continuance of the
history by the Historical Society, whenever it shall see cause to
resume it. I have material enough, some assorted and some un-
assorted, for a sixth volume, which would literally bring the history
to the present date. By correspondence I have been manipulating
the sale of the volumes already published and collecting accounts.
During the year I have paid Smith & Lamar $500, leaving a
balance in their favor of $1,399.60. Part of this balance is for
503 copies of Vol. V. of Holston Methodism, a second edition issued
during the year. To pay this balance we have accounts against
preachers and others amounting to $616.67; also books in stock,
1,331, which, if sold at jobbers' rates and paid for, would be worth
$1,131.35. Our assets may, therefore, be put down at $1,748.02;
balance in our favor, $349.42. But the figures against us are certain
figures, and those in our favor are more or less uncertain. After
frequent and urgent statements, I have collected on accounts dur-
ing the year $202.45, leaving the balance due as stated above.
I thought it best not to attempt to attend the District Confer-
ences during the year, but I was represented at them by Dr. Perry
and others, who procured a number of small orders only. The small-
ness of these orders grew partly out of the fact that considerable
shipments of both Vols. IV. and V. were made to the preachers last
year, and they claimed that those had not all been disposed of.
Yet the smallness of these orders is a discouraging omen. Does
it mean that the preachers are tired of selling the books, and are
determined to drop the enterprise? Since we have at considerable
cost electrotyped the work, and since our people are by no means
generally supplied, it is to be hoped that the question is to be an-
swered in the negative.
Of the five volumes there have been published 10,000 copies
(in round numbers), or an average of 2,000 copies to the volume.
In a membership of nearly 80,000, as reported at the last Confer-
ence, 10,000 copies is only one copy to every eight members, or a
full set to every forty members. This ratio is distressingly great.
I am sure that this state of affairs ought to be remedied. It seems
to me that measures should be taken to place a full set of the his-
tories in every Methodist family as well as in many nonnMethodist
families. This, I believe, would conduce to the popularity of Meth-
odism and to the increase of the piety of its membership, not because
of any skill, ability or piety in the author, but because of the rich-
ness in incident of the material and the brilliance in talents and
accomplishments together with the profound spirituality and joy-
ful experience of many of the men and women sketched in the
volumes. If a plan for the accomplishment of this desirable result
can be suggested and adopted, I am willing to do my part in work-
ing it.
HOLSTON ANNUAL 67
There has been less complaining of my work as an author than
I had expected or deserved; but many may have thought that the
story of Holston should have been condensed into one or two vol-
umes. But this could not have been done without the mere categor-
ical mention of many excellent men and women, and the total ex-
clusion of many important incidents. Descending in many cases to
particulars has rendered the page more lifelike than would have
been done by a dry schedule of names and events. Drs. McFerrin
and Redford wrote the histories of the Tennessee and Kentucky
Conferences, respectively. These histories embraced about the same
period as the Holston history as far as they went, and each author
wrote three volumes of about the same size as the Holston volumes.
McFerrin's work came down to 1840, and Redford's to 1832. My
work, comprehending five volumes, comes to 1897. Reckoning each
history really to begin in 1783, McFerrin covers fifty-seven years
and Redford forty-nine — nineteen years to the volume for Mc-
Ferrin and sixteen and one-third to the volume for Redford. Reck-
oning the Holston history to begin at the same time, it covers a
period of 114 years, or nearly twenty-three years to the volume.
So it will be seen that the Holston volumes have been decidedly
more terse and economical of space than the Tennessee or Kentucky
volumes. Besides, no such interest and importance attach to the
introduction and perpetuation of Methodism in any other section
of the Union as attach to its beginning and progress in Holston,
Here it contended with impassable mountains and pathless wilds,
grappled with savage beasts and more savage Indians to a degree
experienced in no other section. Here it was more torn and rent
by political divisions and animosities, lawless bushwhacking, robbing
and killing, family and neighborhood feuds and estrangements,
church disruptions and ecclesiastical plunderings during and after
the Civil War than in any other section.
If our history, because of its local and personal interest, has
inspired or shall inspire the reading spirit where it was or is de-
ficient, or if it has excluded to any extent the cheap and sensational
trash of the popular novel, it will have accomplished enough good
to justify all the outlay of literary work, mechanical labor, can-
vassing activity and financial cost, that have been involved in its
publication.
John Wesley, that mighty seer, whose mental grasp took in the
past with its lessons and the future with its possibilities, was fully
alive to the power of the press. Hence he said "spread the books."
He was himself a writer of books and tracts on a variety of topics;
and during his life he took in as the result of the sale of his writ-
ings $2 00,000. The press is more and more becoming the chief
factor in molding the opinions and directing the actions of man-
kind. If you will tell me what people read, I will tell you what
they believe and what they are. If I had the power to put Roman
Catholic literature exclusively into the hands of the American peo-
ple for a hundred years, I would show you a nation solidly Catholic.
If I could put infidel literature into the hands of the same people
for a hundred years, or less time, I would show you a people solidly
infidel with Christian churches converted into theaters, the Ten
Commandments repealed, and the Christian Sabbath only a holiday.
The Methodist Church in all its branches is perhaps the richest,
most influential and most spiritual church in the nation; but it can
only hold its lofty position by the diligent circulation of religious
literature in the form of Methodist books and tracts, reviews, mag-
azines and newspapers. Stop the Methodist press for a century
and Methodism would be "numbered among the things that were
before the flood" — a mere memory buried with the dead past.
68 H0L8T0TSI ANNUAL
And what more powerfully influences the opinions of men than
history, which is only "philosophy teaching by examples"?
In circulating the modest volumes of Holston Methodism,
brethren, you are not simply putting a few shekels into the pockets
of the author and the agents who manufacture and sell it, but you
are aiding in perpetuating the primacy already attained by South-
ern Methodism amid the lofty heights, beautiful hills and pic-
turesque vales of this "Switzerland of America" from New River
to Chattanooga and from the Kentucky line to the Blue Ridge, and
in helping to preserve this primacy you are helping to promote the
cause to which you were called by the head of the Church, namely,
the rescue of the perishing and the edification of believers. No
man can read a true and faithful Methodist history without be-
coming a better and more useful man, more thoroughly rooted and
grounded in the love of God and more sure of a crown and a harp
at the right hand of God.
The preachers who have bought and sold the volumes of Holston
Methodism have not served God for naught. I have allowed them
32 per cent, of the retail price, which, if they had handled the
10,000 volumes, would amount to $4,000; but this compensation
to agents is not worthy to be compared with the intellectual and
spiritual good that the history is intended to do. But even finan-
cially the work of selling the books will pay liberally; the reading
of Methodist history will engender loyalty to the Church, increased
attendance upon its ordinances, greater liberality in support of its
Institutions and in the end more liberal pastoral salaries.
I beg leave again to remind the brethren that this is a Confer-
ence, not an individual, enterprise. As an individual enterprise it
could not have been otherwise than a disastrous failure. Our field
is too circumscribed, and even in the bounds of the Conference
our constituency is too partial to allow of a large sale of the vol-
umes of the history, whatever may be its merits, without great
and general effort. If we had published it and depended upon sim-
ply advertising it, it would have been stillborn. Everything de-
pends on drumming. Indeed ministers of the gospel are nothing
but drummers sent forth to drum men into the Kingdom. The
preachers in their pastoral rounds must carry the books to the
families and personally press them upon their consideration. You
would do well so far as the written history is concerned to make the
most of it; for it is not likely that it will be rewritten in the next
hundred years.
I have been gratified with the favor with which the preachers
and people of the Holston Conference and elsewhere have received
the volumes as they came from the press; all the comments which
I have heard or heard of, and all the written or published notices
which I have read have been eulogistic, except one discordant
from a distance, which pronounces the fifth volume "a disap-
pointment," averring that "the edge of my splendid genius is dulled
by age and infirmity," and that I have not dealt justly with those
with whom I came in collision in early life. I am glad to say that
the universal verdict, with this single exception, is the contrary of
this opinion. I plead guilty to the soft impeachment of writing
kindly of those whom I have loved as intimated in the unfavorable
criticism to which I refer; but my conscience is clear of having set
down aught in malice toward those with whom I have come in col-
lision in the past, or of treating them with intentional neglect.
Bishop Waterhouse, in his introduction to the fifth volume, speaks
of my "spirit of fairness;" Dr. Schuler, editor of the Midland Meth-
odist, says that I have written "without giving my views, feelings
HOLSTON ANNUAL 69
and prejudices;" referring to tlie unfavorable comment mentioned
above, Dr. John H. Brunner, now in heaven, wrote me: "I have
not detected any unfairness or injustice in your treatment of the
brethren." Bislaop Hoss, referring to the same unfavorable criti-
cism, wrote me: "As far as the particular Vol. V. is concerned, I
think I told you that I thought it to be the best and most inter-
esting of the five. If it showed any slightest diminution of intellect-
ual vigor on your part, I am utterly unable to see it." These are
only a few notices among a considerable number of the same kind.
There were some important omissions in Vol. V. that no one
regrets more than I. A number of our best men were cut off from
the Holston Conference in the setting off of the Western North
Carolina Conference in 189 0, and most of these failed on that
account to receive biographical mention in Vol. V. — men such as
W. W. Bays, G. C. Rankin and James H. Weaver. When I dis-
covered the omissions I would have made the amende honorable,
but enough had been written to make a large volume and they
were laid over for a future volume.
A regret has been expressed that Vol. V. docs not contain a
biographical notice of Bishop Hoss; but my plan, which I have
departed from only occasionally, has been to reserve biographical
notices till the location, the transfer to foreign missions or to other
Conferences, or death of the men. My story of Holson ends in 1897,
and Bishop Hoss was not promoted to the episcopacy till 1902. I
have been collecting material relating to him, and would rejoice in
the privilege of writing up this many-sided man, this Admirable
Crichton of Southern Methodism — scholar, teacher, preacher, editor,
bishop and loving, affable Christian gentleman.
Pardon me for adding that through life I have courted poverty
and won it; sought pardon and peace and found them. Amid
much unfaithfulness and many backslidings, I have enjoyed many
refreshings from the presence of the Lord, yea, many deep, joyful
experiences, which the world knows not of; and through the aton-
ing blood of the Lord Jesus Christ I hope by and by to join my
brethren and friends that have gone before in a world of happi-
ness, activity and progress. "Ye see how large a letter I have
written unto you with mine own hand."
R. N. PRICE.
SUNDAY SCHOOL BOARD.
The Church at large has had faithful warning against the dan-
ger of secularized institutions of learning and a godless education.
The vital necessity of counter activity on the part of loyal church-
men has been strenuously emphasized. Southern Methodism has
just emerged from a mighty struggle for possession of Vanderbilt
University; millions of dollars are in demand for Atlanta and Dal-
las; the rights of the Church in our various colleges are the subject
of rigorous investigation. In the sphere of "higher education"
there is no lack of interest or of the activity of financial agencies
in that behalf.
But what of the elementary instruction in which all higher edu-
cation is rooted? Plainly, the Protestant Church has surrendered
that vast realm to state control. The Roman Catholic Church is
still stubbornly contesting the claims of the state to the care of her
children. The reason is clear and, from her viewpoint, entirely valid.
70 HOLSTON A]^NUAL
The activity of the state in perfecting its educational system and
methods is in evidence from Maine to Texas and from Hatteras to
the Golden Gate. Under this system the state assumes control of
our children thirty hours of each week, and in many common-
wealths attendance is compulsory, while the teaching of religion is
strictly forbidden — even the reading of the Bible in the hearing
of pupils being prohibited.
Now here is a most significant fact strangely ignored; namely,
that the only specific agency remaining under control of the Church
for the systematic education of children and youth in morals and
religion is the Sunday School. Granting all that may be legiti-
mately claimed for the Epworth League — thwarted of its noble
objective solely through lack of efficient local leadership and of
the pulpit — which often disqualifies itself by its choice of obscure
themes and university methods in the presentation of them, the
fact remains that the vast majority of the young people of our day
are dependent on the Sunday School for a religious education.
When we consider the isolation of its units, the deficiency of its
equipment, its unpaid, untrained officers and teachers, its voluntary
and ofttimes desultory attendance, and then remember that its mar-
velous achievements are the result of a weekly gathering of one
hour — only half of this, or less, being devoted to instruction — we
cannot escape the conviction that God is its founder and patron;
that its title and trusteeship is clearly in the Church, and that with
teachers by the hundreds of thousands and with many millions of
students, the Sunday School as a power which makes for righteous-
ness, is more indispensably necessary to the Church than its col-
leges and universities. Let those who doubt or deny this state-
ment put it to this extreme test: if the Church were forced to
choose between closing its Sunday School or its colleges and uni-
versities, which could it better afford to surrender?
That the Kingdom of God cometh without observation, the
growth of the Sunday School conclusively proves. For long it was
accorded scant courtesy in ecclesiastical sanhedrims. An epoch was
recorded in the acts of the General Conference of the Methodist
Episcopal Church, South, in the year of our Lord 1914, when, for
the first time, its Sunday School received recognition in anything
like approximately adequate legislation. Up to that time its con-
stituency of over a million and a half of souls masqueraded in
our discipline under a little hotch-potch section of thirteen para-
graphs. Contrast, in passing, the voluminous laws of the state
in support of a school system, often characterized as "secular and
godless."
At last this greatest of all our Church schools is accorded a
whole chapter in five sections and thirty orderly paragraphs —
which, by the way, must be regarded as only a hopeful sign of bet-
ter things to come. As an incitement to a careful study of this
advanced legislation a brief resume is presented.
In Section 1 we find the General Board increased from six to
twenty-six members — its chairman a bishop — with provision for fur-
ther additions. Thus the board becomes fairlj' representative of
a great Church with powers enlarged and clearly defined.
In Section 2 the Conference Board emerges from the primor-
dial formless fog clothed with powers which suffice to cover its
previous condition of extreme nakedness. Its orbit is assigned and
erraticism of movement from centrifugal force carefully counter-
balanced by centripetal checks.
Section 3 provides for organization and management of the local
school after a more thorough fashion than heretofore prevailing.
Pastors who have been depending on the school to tide them over
H0L8T0N ANNUAL 71
the assessment shoals will find some mighty interesting reading
in this section.
Section 6 contains six paragraphs, each opening v/ith these
words, "It shall be the duty of the preacher in charge," and is of
special significance for any who have generously conceded to the
superintendent all of the responsibilities and part of the revenues.
Reporting one, or more, school, or schools, "well attended and
doing good work" will not hereafter be recognized as either ortho-
dox in principle or safe in practice.
Section 5 consists of three paragraphs, each beginning with this
ominous language, "It shall be the duty of the presiding elder."
This is something new under the sun.
Enlargement of vision, of hope and of purpose is certified in the
Report of the General Board to the Annual Conferences in which
(1) a better adjustment of lesson helps, the issue of books treat-
ing of religious education, the enlargement of existing periodicals
and the launching of new ones is promised; (2) the progress and
outlook of teacher training classes — 130,000 members — are indi-
cated; (3) employment of field secretaries is provided for; (4) a
ten-point revised standard of efficiency is announced.
Our Conference statistics for 1913 gave our Sunday School en-
rollment as 6,251 in excess of Church members. In this compar-
ison only one Conference in all Southern Methodism — the West
Virginia — excelled Holston. With a reported decrease of 2,123 in
the school and an increase of 2,742 in the Church for 1914, the
school membership is over 1,000 less than that of the Church.
While rejoicing in this large addition to the Church — made possible
by the unheralded service of its Sunday School workers — we must
repudiate the idea that it is easier to get members into the Church
than the school. By reasonable diligence we may soon regain the
prominence to which our opportunities invitingly point.
Since the functions of this board, as now constituted, cease by
statute of limitation with the reading of this report, we do not pre-
sume to anticipate, even by suggestion, the policy of our successors.
But we venture to urge, as heretofore in various ways, the impor-
tance of district organization which the General Board indorses
"as furnishing the most effective means for reaching the rank and
file of the Church."
In conclusion, we express our heartfelt gratitude to all our
brethren who have concurred with us in our sincere efforts for the
advancement of the Kingdom of God through Sunday School
agencies and our profound regret that much of our labor was lost
because of the indifference of some to our most earnest and per-
sistent appeals for help. We congratulate the incoming board on
the greatly increased facilities afforded it through progressive leg-
islation for the provision of its work, and bespeak for it such gen-
erous co-operation as will assure to its labors the most abundant
success.

CARE OP CONFERENCE FUNDS.
Your committee appointed to submit a plan for handling the
finances of the Holston Annual Conference, Methodist Episcopal
Church, South, recommends that the American Trust and Banking
Company, of Chattanooga, Tennessee, be designated as the deposi-
tory of all the benevolent and trust funds of the various boards of
the Conference. All the money coming to the Conference, regardless
of the board to whom it finally goes, shall be paid direct to the
American Trust and Banking Company, of Chattanooga, Tennessee,
as general treasurer. The present rule of the Conference is that
all receipts should be paid to the teller. Now the said trust com-
pany will act as teller in receiving the funds and be responsible
for same.
We recommend that in establishing the office of general treas-
urer, all present treasurers of the several Conference boards and
trustees of Conference funds are instructed to immediately turn
over to the American Trust and Banking Company, Chattanooga,
Tennessee, all moneys and securities in their hands, as soon as they
have been thoroughly audited by a committee of three to be ap-
pointed by the presiding bishop, which committee is authorized to
secure such aid as may be needed in making the audits. Tlais
committee is authorized to act as agents of the Holston Annual
Conference in effecting the transfer of said funds and securities,
and to make a report to the chairman of each board and the trustees
of Conference funds. Any necessary expense incurred by said com-
mittee in having an audit made shall be borne by the particular
board involved.
The American Trust and Banking Company will recommend in-
vestments for any surplus or trust funds under the control of any
of the several boards or trustees, such investments to be made by
them only upon the written approval of the executive officers of
the board or trustees to whom the fund belongs. Statements in
detail of all investments made and securities held will be submitted
to each session of the Holston Annual Conference or oftener If
desired.
When all collections are in at the close of the Conference year,
and the general treasurer's books are closed at the Annual Confer-
ence, each treasurer of the several hoards will be notified of the
amount of funds to the credit of such board, which amount shall
be subject to check, according to the rules prescribed by each board.
H0L8T0N ANNUAL 73
The treasurer of each board will be provided with a check book,
the check itself being in such form that it will show plainly what
it is issued for.
A statement of each fund will be prepared for the Conference
for its Mid-year and Annual Meetings. These statements shall show
in a complete, comprehensive and detailed manner the financial
affairs of the Conference and each district and charge and fund.
The statement for the Annual Conference will be in such form
that it may be printed in the "Annual," relieving the financial sec-
retary of such work.
Statements at frequent and regular intervals will be made to
the Presiding Elder of each District, and, when requested, a state-
ment will be sent to any pastor.
Statements of any particular fund or board will be submitted
to proper authorities at any time upon request.
The trust company will have at the Annual Conference sufficient
responsible clerical force to handle all necessary work.
All the funds required to be remitted to anyone will be remitted
promptly, as required by the Conference.
The American Trust and Banking Company will perform all
services noted above and any other reasonable services connected
with same for the sum of $600 per year, payable quarterly, plus
the cost of necessary stationery and postage.
The expense to be divided as follows:
Board of Church extension 12 i/^ per cent.
Board of education 12% per cent.
Joint board of finance 25 percent.
Board of missions 50 per cent.

Committee.
The following amendment was adopted:
Resolved, That a commission consisting of F. A. Carter, J. A.
Burrow, W. G. M. Thomas, G. L. Hardwick and R. P. Purse be
and are hereby appointed to complete all contracts and arrange-
ments with the American Trust and Banking Company, provided
they find after investigation that a satisfactory contract can be
made, and are satisfied with the institution; but should they find
that more satisfactory arrangements can be made with some other
bank they are hereby given full power to make such arrangement
and contract for the Holston Conference.
ADVANTAGES OF A TRUST COMPANY.
1. Its thorough responsibility. Undertaking the work for pay,
it asks no indulgence. Every detail of the work must be punc-
tually, thoroughly and systematically discharged. It expects to be
held to strict account.
2. Its thorough and prudent accounting. The church funds
pass through bonded hands, under careful eyes. No looseness or
carelessness. No delay in making payments and accounting.
3. Its perpetuity. It does not die or fall sick in the middle of
its work. When one of its officials is ill or dies, another trained
74 H0L8T0N ANNUAL
man is in liis place. There are no misplaced accounts or account
books to be sought for at any time. All are safely kept in the
company's Are and burglar-proof vaults. There is no trouble or
annoyance in selecting some deceased officer's successor. The suc-
cessor to every officer of a trust company is already selected and in
training, waiting for advancement. Individual treasurers are often
sick at Conference time. No one is familiar with their affairs. No
one can properly report for them. The trust company will always
have an experienced, capable man at Conference to report, suggest
and advise concerning every detail of the finances.
4. Its safety. Trust companies have ample capital and surplus
to protect patrons from loss. They are frequently and rigidly
audited by the state bank examiners. Their officers and employes
are under heavy bonds.
5. Its frequent and comprehensive reports. It expects to be
asked about the church affairs often — figures the extra work this
entails into its compensation and keeps its accounts so methodically
that reports can be quickly made.
6. Its co-ordination of Church accounts. You vv^ould not have
to collect fragments of information from various treasurers. You
could write to one office for all the information you want, and get
it promptly — compiled so you would comprehend it at a glance.
7. Its capacity to invest. Its loans of surplus funds, made upon
a strictly business basis, safeguarded by its wide experience and
knowledge of financial affairs, will be safe and sure. It will pro-
duce money when it is needed again for Church purposes.
8. Its conformity to rules. It does not expect rules bent or
broken to suit its personal or private convenience. It will do what
it is told to do and do it promptly.
9. The fact that it is a business institution working for pay.
Nobody will hesitate to ask for statements. Nobody will hesitate
to ask for prompt, efficient work. Nobody will hesitate to criticise
or ask for explanations.
D
BOARD OF EDUCATION.
Report No. 1.
Your Board of Education begs leave to submit the following
special report:
Upon careful investigation of the title of Centenary College, lo-
cated at Cleveland, Tennessee, we find that this institution is duly
chartered under the general laws of the State of Tennessee and is
secured to the Methodist Episcopal Church, South, by a deed of
transfer which, in our judgment, fully meets the disciplinary require-
ments of the General Conference.
This deed has been recorded in the register's office of Bradley
county, Tennessee, in Deed Book "B," pp. 193, 194, 195.
In view of the title and ownership of the Church in this prop-
erty, we commend the institution to the patronage of our people
and to their liberal support in the campaign now in progress to free
it from a burden of debt.
R. K. SUTHERLAND, Vice-President.
E. E. WILEY, Secretary.
H0L8T0N ANNUAL 75
Report No. 2.
The work of education within the bounds of the Holston Con-
ference has been carefully looked into by your board, and v/e find
it to be in a healthy, progressive state. All of our schools have
opened under favorable conditions, giving promise of a prosperous
and successful year.
Hiwassee College, now under the management of Rev. J. E.
Lowry, has the largest enrollment in many years. We recommend
it to the General Board of Education for classification as a Junior
College.
Sullins College, under the management of President W. S. Neigh-
bors, has a large enrollment and is enjoying an era of financial pros-
perity and growth.
Martha Washington College is now classified as an "A" grade
college, and was never, perhaps, in a more prosperous and healthy
condition than under the management of President S. D. Long.
Emory and Henry College, standing at the head of our educa-
tional work in Holston, is, we feel sure, about to enter upon an
era of enlarged usefulness. The new administration building, val-
ued at $65,000, has just been completed, and marks a great advance
in material progress and equipment. Another building for use as
an astronomical observatory and physical laboratory is in process
of construction, and will be ready for use by January 1, 1915.
This building will stand as a memorial to Creed Fulton, whose
daughters, Mrs. M. P. Preston and Miss Sallie Fulton, have con-
tributed largely to its erection. A central heating and electric light
plant is being erected and will be ready for use in a few weeks.
The future for Emory and Henry College is bright with hope.
But in order to secure in full the promised contribution of $50,000
from the General Educational Board of New York and the $25,000
from Mr. Carnegie, it is vitally important that all notes and prom-
ises now due, or maturing, should be paid in cash at the earliest
date possible, certainly not later than the thirtieth day of June,
1915. We urge all our preachers and laymen to note this fact and
help the college to make these collections in full.
The student body at Emory and Henry College at this time is
large and full of enthusiasm. A goodly company of young men are
there preparing for the ministry. It has been, and will be for many
years to come, the place to which Holston must look for trained men
for the ministry. In this connection we call attention to the fact
that the General Board of Education has recommended the estab-
lishment of a chair of religious education at Emory and Henry Col-
lege, by the Board of Education, the Board of Missions and the
Sunday School Board of this Conference. Your Board of Educa-
tion recommends that, if possible, such a chair be established at
the beginning of the session of 1915, or as soon thereafter as pos-
sible.
Complying with the requirements of the new discipline, E. E.
Wiley was elected Conference Secretary of Education for the ensuing
quadrennium.
We recommend the confirmation of R. K. Sutherland as a
trustee of Emory and Henry College.
We recommend the confirmation of F. A. Carter as a trustee
of Centenary College.
We recommend the appointment of Rev. Luther S. Reynolds
as a student in our new Theological School at Atlanta.
We recommend the appointment of O. C. Wright, S. H. Austin
and Z. V. Randall as students at Emory and Henry College; A. S.
Thorn, principal of Montgomery State Normal; F. R. Suavely as
76
H0L8T0N ANNUAL
a student in Hiwassee College; R. P. Carroll, principal of Konna-
rock High School, and J. H. Montgomery, principal of Damascus
High School.
We call attention to the new education standard for admission
on trial as set forth in paragraph 731 of the discipline. We recom-
mend that all candidates for admission on trial, and all members
of the various Conference classes, be required to meet the various
examining committees on the day preceding the opening of the
Annual Conference, prepared to stand a written examination.
A committee consisting of Rev. J. W. Moore, Rev. E. E. Wiley,
Mr. George L. Hardwick was appointed to confer with other like
committees of the Carolina Conferences in regard to a theological
institute at Lake Junaluska or elsewhere.
The educational assessment for the year is $9,717, divided as
follows: Bluefield District, $753; Tazewell District, $848; Radford
District, $956; Wytheville District, $1,185; Abingdon District,
$1,045; Big Stone Gap District, $765; Morristown District, $1,000;
Knoxville District, $1,176; Chattanooga District, $1,326; Cleveland
District, $663. Total, $9,717.

MORAL AND SOCIAL MOVEMENTS.
The first and paramount vi^ork of the Church of God is un-
doubtedly the calling of sinners to repentance; but second to this,
and of extreme importance, is the creation and conservation of the
moral, social and economic conditions under which, and in which,
converts may live and grow, and all the fruits of the gospel may
be conserved. Next of importance to the birth of a lamb in a fold
is its preservation from destructive agents and elements, and the
furnishing of food and environment necessary to its growth and
development.
We put first in our list our most destructive and dangerous foe.
Judged by the fruits, the manufacture, sale and use of alcoholic
drinks furnish to the Church its greatest enemy. Alcoholic drink
is the greatest enemy to the Church itself, in that it produces dis-
sipation, fosters every variety of crime and immorality and paralyzes
efforts to save mankind. It is the greatest enemy of the home, in
that it creates the largest percentage of divorces, produces widow-
hood and orphanage, strips the home of every comfort, robs it of
every joy, and, worse than all, thrusts out into posterity an idiotic,
feeble-minded, epileptic, blind and generally deficient offspring. It
is the greatest enemy of the state, in that it corrupts the ballot,
subsidizes the makers and executors of law, and creates a debauched
and immoral citizenship, who are enemies to good government. It
is the greatest enemy to business, in that it diverts money from
legitimate businesses, destroys the man, who is the unit of labor,
and is the mother of accident, disorder and general lack of efficiency
in working classes wherever it touches. The calamitous crime of
our civilization has been that this gigantic enemy has been legalized
and for many long years actually aided by the government in its
nefarious and destructive work.
As past victories are stimulants to future battles, we call your
attention, first, to the progress made. We bring you the good tid-
ings that the nations of the world are awaking and are beginning
to realize the power of this enemy. The actions of the commanders-
in-chief of the great and horrible European war in prohibiting alco-
holic drinks, on the ground of efficiency; the action of the generals
in Mexico, making it a penalty of death for any man to furnish to
a soldier drink, or for any soldier to be found intoxicated, on account
of the demoralization and destruction of efficiency in the army; the
recent action of Russia, Germany and other nations in the prohibi-
tion and limitation of this great evil; the movement in almost every
nation of the globe in the past decade, by which in official conduct
and statement of governmental leaders, in discussions and decla-
rations from conventions of bodies of highest medical, social and
economic authority, and in the enactment of civil laws, by which
alcoholic drink has been put under the ban as a common evil — all
78 HOLSTON ANNUAL
furnish unmistakable evidence of this awakening. The action in
recent years of our own government, first, in the passage of the
Webb-Kenyon bill over the president's veto; second, in the passage
of the Jones-Works bill, reducing the saloons in the District of
Columbia one-half, entirely prohibiting saloons in all residence dis-
tricts, and prohibiting a saloon within 400 feet of any school or
church; third, the measure insuring the continuance of prohibition
of the canteen in national and state soldiers' homes; fourth, an
appropriation for the enforcement of the anti-liquor laws in Alaska;
fifth, a bill defeating the effort to reinstate the beer canteen in
the army; sixth, an appropriation to pay the expenses of the dele-
gates to represent the United States in the International Congress
against alcoholism, appointed to be held in Milan, Italy, in Sep-
tember, 1913; seventh, the elimination of wine from all official
banquets by the Secretary of State; eighth, the recognition of the
committee of one thousand citizens, recently gathered at the cap-
ital for the purpose of requesting national legislation, and the set-
ting apart in both houses hours for the consideration of the great
question they represented. All these, and many other things, com-
ing from the world and our own national capital, are significant
of the fact that the traffic is reaching its final doom.
To bring our victories nearer home, we call your attention,
first, to recent elections in Virginia and West Virginia, by which
these states gave such overwhelming and, to the enemy, unex-
pected majorities — Virginia giving a majority of 30,000 and West
Virginia 92,000; second, the recent local option elections in Ken-
tucky, by which nine out of twelve counties in which elections were
held were carried dry, leaving only fourteen counties in the state
of 120 counties in which alcoholic liquors can be legally sold; third,
to the splendid character of officials and official conduct, by which
the prohibition laws in West Virginia have been so enforced as to
create such marvelous changes in morals, prison life and industrial
conditions as to make that state an actual demonstration by ex-
ample to every state in the Union of the beneficial effects of state-
wide prohibition; fourth, to the improved conditions in Tennessee,
under which laws have been more efficiently enforced against the
illegal sale of liquor in the hitherto rebellious cities of Memphis,
Nashville, Chattanooga and Knoxville; fifth, the immense figures
sent up from police stations, prisons and court records, showing
throughout all the dry states of the South the wonderfully improved
conditions in crime and its costs and results, making the whole
South a shining example to the nation of the good influences of
prohibition; sixth, to the planks in the platforms of both parties
in the state, pledging to maintain our present state-wide law and
to favor the enactment of such laws as are necessary to make
them efficient; seventh, to victories in every state in the Union, by
which prohibition territory has been enlarged and saloons elim-
inated. All these things point with no uncertain finger to the
speedy overthrow of this gigantic evil as a legalized enemy in our
nation.
We offer another message of good cheer in the recent enactment
of laws prohibiting the sale of hurtful drugs, such as opium,
absynthe, cocaine and morphine; the state law against cigarettes,
and the advanced step of our own Church in its legislation on the
general use of tobacco among its ministry; the laws of pure foods
and pure medicines; the laws regulating labor, preserving our boys
and girls from commercialism and opening up better facilities and
opportunities for their education; the laws against the white slave
trade and other specific vices, together with the general improved
HOLSTON ANNUAL 79
conditions of factories, work .shops, tenement houses and city
slums, in which better conditions of life are offered to the laboring
poor. All these things tell of the success of the Gospel of Jesus
Christ and of the fruits of the labors of all those who are apostles
of the doctrine, whose fundamental tenet is, "Love the Lord thy
God with all thy mind, soul and strength, and thy neighbor as
thyself." We urge that our preachers study the social and economic
questions so that they may render intelligent and efficient aid, not
only in proper legislation, but in general enlightenment of the
people.
With this message of cheer, we beg to call your attention further
to future work and future dangers. First, to make efficient and
successful the excellent laws now upon our statute books, it will be
necessary for every Christian minister to advocate from his pulpit
and every Christian citizen to urge the necessity of electing such
men to our legislative and executive offices as will guarantee to us
the maintenance and proper execution of our laws, and if neces-
sary the enactment of such additional laws as will render our
present laws efficient.
We recommend most heartily that we continue our support to
the Anti-Saloon League, as the non-sectarian and non-partisan agent
which has so greatly aided us by organized effort in the work
hitherto done, and we recommend that our preachers and laiety,
especially in Virginia, give their financial support in aiding to reduce
the debt recently incurred in the great moral fight in Virginia.
We recommend that we continue our co-operation, as heretofore,
with the Woman's Christian Temperance Union, and such other or-
ganizations for benevolent and temperance work as have by their
fruits shown themselves worthy.
¥/e recommend most highly the work of our brother, J. D.
McAlister, as superintendent of the Anti-Saloon League of Virginia.
We commend most heartily the work of the ministry of our
Church, who fearlessly and unreservedly threw themselves into the
fore front of the great battle in Virginia for state-wide prohibition.
As alcoholic liquors have been prohibited in all our territory,
we may expect other hurtful drugs, by sinful commercialism, to be
offered as a substitute, and the many hurtful drinks and drugs now
offered for sale to be offered more abundantly; we urge careful
watchfulness and fearless denunciation of all these subterfuges.
We call attention to the exciting to debauchery from music
halls, realistic plays, certain kinds of moving picture shows, dance
halls and the modern novel — which have recently taken on new
and suggestive features. We urge that a strict censorship be de-
manded of this new and marvelously powerful agent, the "picture
show."
As the Methodist Church has from its origin emphasized mod-
esty of apparel, we call attention to the fact that the attire of our
women has not, in the memory of men now living, been more
immodest and suggestive than now. We call upon our preachers
to sound a note of warning to parents. The morality of our race
rests upon our women; no nation ever rises higher than its mothers
in morality; the morality of woman rests upon the preservation of
her modesty.
Last, we beg to sound this note of v/arning. This is a period
in America especially of reform movements and reform propa-
gandists. Reform societies on all subjects are organized and being
organized. Reformers, male and female, are peopling the rostrums
of our country and seeking our pulpits for every species of propa-
ganda; books, pamphlets and periodicals are being scattered. We
80 HOLSTON Al^fNUAL
urge that the liberality and enthusiasm peculiar to Methodists be
not used to draw us into extreme positions and connect us with
unwise and fanatical movements, which will impair our usefulness
in wise and essential reform movements. We urge upon our
preachers the necessity of careful study and intelligent investiga-
tion before adopting and endorsing new reform movements.

Six of the above members are present at this Conference.
I am pleased to report that the District Lay Leaders desire to
work in harmony with the Presiding Elders, giving assistance
wherever they can to the best interests of the Conference. There
appears to be about 124 churches in the Conference which have
active Missionary Committees; from this number thirty-odd have
made an every-member canvass, and about 22 are using the duplex
envelope, or that form of envelope, for raising benevolences.
It is very gratifying to report that wherever the Church Lay
Committees have been properly organized and the "Every-member
canvass" taken, and the duplex envelope system used, it has proved
successful. In many cases the success was beyond the expectation
of those who put it into effect. This plan not only looks after
the financial end of the Church, but also brings the officers in
direct contact with the entire church membership, getting a true
report of the spiritual welfare and condition of each member,
which enables the pastor to more effectively do his pastoral work,
know his congregation, and where his attention is needed most.
Where the financial plans for Methodists have been put into
effect, in a majority of cases we have only praise for its successful
working. First, it nearly always raises the needed funds; second,
it giv^es the laymen of the church something to do, bringing them
in contact with the church, and develops them as church workers;
but the greatest benefit received therefrom is the spiritual uplift,

giving them a new vision and new knowledge of the work of our
Lord. Therefore, we earnestly request that every minister in the
Holston Conference take into his confidence the laymen of his
charge, encourage them to assist him in the upbuilding of the
church. It is the desire of this Board of Lay Activities during the
coming year to thoroughly organize the laymen in church work
throughout the entire Conference.

DISTRICT CONFERENCE RECORDS.
Your Committee on District Conference Records submits the
following report:
Nine of the ten district Conference records were presented to
the committee for examination.
The Tazewell District record is incomplete in that the supple-
ments are missing, and that the date does not appear at the top
of each page. The recorded minutes, while good, show some errors
in spelling, and carelessness in punctuation.
The Bluefield record is in good form, but is deficient in arrange-
ment and punctuation. The signatures of the president and
secretary do not appear on the record.
The Radford record is splendid in arrangement and good in
composition and penmanship.
The Wytheville record is exceptional for its legible and artistic
penmanship, and its correct and attractive form.
The Abingdon record is original, but ideal, in its system. How-
ever, it shows minor errors in spelling, and a number of typo-
graphical errors. The committee commends this excellent type-
written, loose-leaf system, and suggests that other districts con-
sider it with reference to its adoption.
The neatness and correctness of the Big Stone Gap record is
marred only by the slight omission of the date from the blank
at the top of each page.
With the exception of a few blots, the Morristown record is
commendable for neatness and form.
Typographical corrections greatly mar the appearance of the
Knoxville record. The system used, the thin, typewritten page,
pasted in scrapbook fashion, is far from ideal. It is preferable to
have the minutes recorded upon the pages of the book, which can
be done by the use of a book machine.
The Harriman record is very good, but abbreviations are used
in many places where it would have been better to have written
in full. Some blots also detract from its appearance.
Through an oversight, the Chattanooga record was not brought
to the seat of the Conference, but upon the statement of Dr.
Burrow, the Presiding Elder, it is in excellent condition.

H
SABBATH OBSERVANCE.
The legal world boasts of Roman law; but back of the Roman
law is the iMosaic law, and in the very heart of the Mosaic law
is the law of the Sabbath; and the law of the Sabbath is given
almost as much space and emphasis as is devoted to all the other of
the Ten Commandments.
In these latter materialistic and entertainment days we fre-
quently hear the Sabbath day referred to as ancient and out of
date. If it is, the other nine are out of date; it is no longer wrong
to steal and lie and kill; if one of the ten is obsolete, so are the
other nine.
We frequently hear people speak of our Lord's words, "The
Sabbath was made for man, and not man for the Sabbath," as if
such words were meant to annul the law of the Sabbath. The
Master was striking at the Pharisaic idolatry of the Sabbath — that
observance that was taking the very heart out of it; but the Master
never meant that the Sabbath had no longer a place among the
fundamental laws of life and morals. Water was made for man,
and not man for water; but he had better be careful how he deals
with it, or he will get drowned. Fire was made for man, and not
man for fire; but he had better be careful in its use, or he will
get burnt.
As the Holy Sabbath is fundamental to all of our institutions,
as attested by revelation and history, therefore your committee
would urge:
1. That the preachers preach Sabbath observance to all their
congregations.
2. That the Sunday schools teach it to all their classes.
3. That parents bring it before their children.
4. That while we are glad to welcome and encourage every
organization looking to the preservation of the Sabbath, let us
not forget that the Church of God is its best friend.
A. B. HUNTER, Secretary.
W. S. NEIGHBORS, Chairman.
SPIRITUAL STATE OP THE CHURCH.
From the reports made by the Presiding Elders of the several
districts of the Conference we feel that there is cause for profound
gratitude to God for His manifest presence in the Church during
the year that has passed. Almost all of the charges in the Con-
ference have been blessed with gracious revivals, some of which
have been accompanied with great power, resulting in deep con-
viction and salvation for many sinners. The backsliders have been
reclaimed, the Church encouraged and strengthened. We are glad
to note that many of these revivals have been conducted by the
pastors. These reports show that there have been more than 12,500
HOLSTON ANNUAL 83
conversions, and about 8,000 accessions to the Church, Surely
the Lord has been with His people.
We believe these glorious results have come in answer to much
prayer. But while we rejoice in the success of the past we should
remember that there remains much to be done. The success of the
past should give us clearer visions of the opportunities before us,
and produce in us a spirit of deeper consecration, more earnest
prayer, and a stronger faith in the Gospel of Christ as the power
of God unto salvation. We should not forget the fact that, with
these gracious results, there comes to us tremendous responsibilities.
These new converts are only babes in Christ. They must be fed
and cared for, and to whom can they look for instruction and help
but to the Church?
We are glad also to note that there are many homes in which
there are family altars, but we believe that there should be in
every Methodist home a daily religious service. God alone can
tell what we have lost by by the neglect of this Christian privilege.
We are not forgetful of the fact that there are strong tendencies
to worldiness, and that the ways of vice and wickedness are open
on every hand, so the preachers of the gospel of Christ should
give no uncertain sound as to the dangers that confront us. We
believe that one of the most effective powers to combat and stay
the tide of worldliness is the home.
Therefore, be it resolved. That we will go to our several fields
of labor and do what we can to encourage and establish family
altars in the homes of our people.
W. H. TROY, Chairman.

CHURCH EXTENSION.
We have completed thirty-two years of organized Church Ex-
tension. The year closing with the session of the General
Conference last May was the best in our history, and the last
quadrennium was by far the best. Receipts for the past quadren-
nium exceeded those of the previous quadrennium by $228,051.52
on assessment, $54,317.33 on specials, and $78,602.59 on contri-
butions to the Loan Fund. The outlook for the future usefulness
of the Board of Church Extension was never brighter.
The total Loan Fund capital of the General Board is now
more than $560,000.00, and the goal has been set at $1,000,000.00.
May this goal soon be attained! There are, in addition to this,
42 Conference Loan Funds, with a capital of more than $60,000.00.
Our own fund, the Sullins-Price-Richardson Loan Fund, has a
capital of $2,776.35. It is our earnest desire to increase this fund
as rapidly as possible.
We would again call the attention of presiding elders and pastors
to the fact that the General Office provides free literature, and
would urge them to take advantage of this opportunity of inform-
ing themselves concerning the workings of Church Extension.
Receipts on assessment amount to more than $600.00 in excess
of receipts for the previous year.
The assessment levied by the General Board for the ensuing
M H0L8T0N ANNUAL
year amounts to $10,260.00. This amount is apportioned to the
various districts as follows:
Bluefield $ 920.00 Big Stone Gap $ 950.00
Tazewell 950.00 Morristown 975.00
Radford 950.00 Knoxville 1,470.00

The board recommends the following assesments: Gonference
Historian, R. N. Price, $1,200.00; Superannuate endowment fund,
$1,000.00; Gonference claimants, $14,000.00; Superintendent of the
Greeneville Industrial Home and School, $900.00.
With reference to the paper referred to us, recommending that
the Joint Board of Finance double the assessment on the Gonfer-
ence for our Gonference claimants, we beg to submit that, while
in hearty sympathy with any movement set on foot to alleviate the
needs of the claimants on this board, we feel that it will be wiser,
and perhaps productive of better results, to take a middle course,
and have made an increase in assessment of $4,500.00, making our
present assessment $14,000.00, instead of $9,500.00, which was the
assesment last year; and in view of this conclusion, therefore,
be it
Resolved, That, as a Gonference, we require the preachers to
make exactly the same earnest effort to secure the amounts appor-
tioned to their charges that they use to secure any other benevolent
collection ordered by the Annual Gonference, and that they do not
discriminate against this fund by giving any collection precedence
over it, and we earnestly urge all pastors to give the people in
the public congregations a chance to contribute to this cause.

BOARD OF MISSIONS.
No. 1 — Evangelism.
The work of the Committee on Evangelism has not been greatly
different this year from other years. As in the past, we have sought
in every possible way to stress the importance of saving men, and
to emphasize the Scriptural means — prayer, the preached Word,
dependence upon the Holy Spirit. Through the Presiding Elders
and the Secretary of Missions this work was stressed in all the
District Institutes. We have strongly urged the reading of Pas-
toral and Personal Evangelism, by Goodell, Finney's Autobiography,
and Wesley's Journal. Quite a number of the preachers have
bought and read these books, and in almost every case these men
have shown great zeal and usefulness during the year. Many re-
markable meetings have been held. The Conference Evangelists
have been active and successful, but the larger number of meetings
have of necessity been held by the pastors themselves. The results
throughout the Conference are indicated below:

These results fill our hearts with joy. To God be all the praise!
The revival in Holston is not a mere temporary spasm of zeal,
but a steady growth in evangelical fervor and New Testament evan-
gelism.
Your committee would strike one single note, that note. Evan-
gelism the one work of the Church. The Church like Martha is
sometimes in danger of being cumbered with much serving, whereas
but one thing is needful. If with holy singleness of purpose she
pursues this, all else will follow. Evangelism, and Pastoral Evan-
gelism especially. Why do we say this? To discriminate against
the evangelist, or to disparage his work? Nay, God knoweth. But
because there are so many more pastors than evangelists, because
the evangelist can never do what the great army of pastors ought
to do, and because we would In every possible way combat the
H0L8T0N ANNUAL 89
idea that there can be any true ministry of Jesus Christ that is
not intensely and whole-heartedly evangelistic. Our motto from
the beginning has been, "Every pastor an Evangelist."
If we make any great progress in swinging our Methodism back
into line as a great evangelistic force, it is our earnest conviction
that a new standard of efficiency needs to be set up in the Church.
No man should be hailed as a successful preacher who does not
succeed in securing the salvation of souls. This is the end of all
preaching, and the only indisputable evidence of a Divine call. It
should be the business of church editors, bishops, connectional
boards and church leaders, generally, to keep this standard in
sight, and let all Methodist preachers understand that by it they
are going to be measured.
And this standard of efficiency ought to apply to the Church
as well as the ministry. There is such a thing as an efficient
Church, and if the New Testament is taken as our guide, thero
can be no doubt as to what constitutes an efficient Church. It
must be a church that loves men, and in which souls are saved.
Is this unreasonable? Think of a factory running full time, blow-
ing its whistle morning, noon and night, meeting a full pay-roll
every week, and yet turning out no products. But think of a
great Church, running full time the year round with officers and
members and an expense budget running up into thousands of
dollars, and yet adding no souls to the Lord's Kingdom. The
whole organization of the Church should be with this high end in
view, and all other things subordinated to it. The evangelistic
motive should enter into all of our work and dominate it. Paul
said, "The love of Christ constraineth us." No less motive should
lead us in all we do. Securing the collections is a very important
thing. We believe in securing the collections, and much larger
than we have ever secured, but it should be from genuine love of
souls and not to get an honor mark at Conference. It should be
in the spirit of Christ and not in the spirit of a contest. It should
be love of Christ, and not fear of the bishop or the board. Souls,
instead of success, should be the goal.
If this sufficient emphasis is to be placed upon evangelism,
administrators and leaders in the Church must consistently and
constantly put it forward. It must be clearly seen that winning
souls is the highest success possible. It deserves highest commenda-
tion, and should have it. No other success should be allowed to
excuse or cover up failure here. Annual Conference sessions should
be so planned and conducted that the salvation of souls will be kept
in the forefront; the salvation of souls should occasion the highest
joy there; and every preacher should go away deeply impressed that
If he would please the Church, the bishop and his Divine Lord, he
must save souls.
Deeply impressed with the necessity for stirring the revival fires
in the Church everywhere, we call attention to the recommendations
and legislation bearing upon this subject by the last General Con-
ference, and offer the following for adoption as the sense of this
Conference.
Resolved, That we as a Conference heartily accept and endorse
the recommendations of the General Conference calling us as a
Church to a more intense evangelism, and that we urge upon the
Department of Home Missions of the General Board of Missions
an early announcement of plans for carrying out the will of the
General Conference for promoting revival work throughout the
Church.
J. A. BAYLOR, Secretary.
90 HOLSTON ANNUAL
No. 2.
After prayerful consideration of the matter we present for your
approval the following recommendations:
1. That we conduct an every-member canvass for contributions
to all our benevolent causes in every church within our Confer-
ence during the week of January 9-15, 1915. Provided that any
Church may conduct such a canvass earlier, and we trust that
very many will do so, all such joining in during this week by
making a supplementary canvass and reporting the results of both
in the totals.
2. That each pastor and lay leader report immediately at the
close of the week to the Presiding Elder and District Lay Leader
for his District, giving the total number of subscribers, and the to-
tal amount pledged in each Church. The work will be most suc-
cessful in that charge which secures subscribers equal in number, or
most nearly so, to the membership, and that District will be the
banner District which secures the largest number of subscribers
or contributors in proportion to the number of members. The
Presiding Elders and District Leaders will in turn report to the
Conference Missionary Secretary and Conference Leader, who shall
publish the results.
3. That a preliminary campaign of preparation be made. The
Conference Missionary Secretary shall prepare a special edition of
the Conference Organ, giving emphasis to the importance of the
work and publicity to the plans and aims. The Secretary and
Conference Leader are further requested to prepare a short ad-
dress to all Charge and Church Leaders, giving some detail of
plans to be distributed by the District Leader in each District.
4. That an institute be held in each District in the Conference
for Pastors and Lay Leaders, and that the District Lay Leaders
are urged to co-operate with the Presiding Elders in making ar-
rangements for these meetings and in securing the attendance of
the laymen. If agreeable to the Presiding Elders, we suggest the
following dates for these Institutes:
Bluefield, Nov. 16, 17. Tazewell, Nov. 19, 29.
Radford, Nov. 23, 24. Wytheville, Nov. 26, 27.
Abingdon, Nov. 30, Dec. 1. Big Stone Gap, Dec. 3, 4.
Morristown, Dec. 7, 8. Knoxville, Dec. 10, 11.
Chattanooga, Dec. 14, 15. Cleveland, Dec. 17, 18.
5. That all our people be urged to consider the advantages of
using the duplex envelope, the simplest and most convenient device
yet invented to aid our people in making their offerings.
6. That every pastor preach at least one sermon on missions
or Christian stewardship before the canvass begins, and that the
whole church be urged to pray for the work and workers.
7. That in the District Institutes emphasis be given to the work
of Laymen in Evangelism and in Social Service.
8. That at some season during the year, preferably the season
closing with Easter, a period be observed as a time of special self-
denial and prayer, and that the people be given opportunity to
make a self-denial offering to be forwarded as a free will offering
from the charge sending it to be used for Home and Conference
and Foreign Missions.
9. That in fixing our goal, wherever it is possible we leave
HOLSTON ANNUAL 91
the offering of the Sunday School to be a surplus, an offering of
love for the King.
J, M. CARTER, Chairman.
P. L. COBB, Secretary.
No. 3.
Another quadrennium closes with this Conference. It has
marked the beginning of a new day in our efforts to evangelize
the world. A notable advance has been made, the most marked,
possibly, in the history of the board. Two facts are conspicuous:
First, the work of our Conference Missionary Secretary; second,
the enlistment of the laymen, through the lay leaders, in an organ-
ized campaign that promises at last to enlist the entire membership
of the Church. A new day has dawned with the recent legislation
of the General Conference for the Layman's Missionary Movement.
The General Board reports an advance in special contributions
and lays emphasis on what our Conference has always urged, the
payment in full of all assessments for missions. At this point we
want to give credit to the splendid leadership of our presiding
elders and their hearty and efficient co-operation in all the efforts
of the board. Following this leadership, the preachers and laymen
have, in the face of a great financial stringency, increased the total
payments to missions nearly four thousand dollars.
Untiring efforts at evangelism, which have placed us among the
leading Conferences in our yearly increase of membership, has
shown marked results in every department of our Church life.
The employment of Ward and York in a former quadrennium fol-
lowed by the Conference-wide campaign, launched four years ago
with our efficient secretary of evangelism, Brother Baylor, aided by
our Conference evangelists and the pastor evangelists, has made
our Conference known as a leader in the Church-wide revival inau-
gurated by the Church fathers four years ago, and emphasized at
our recent General Conference.
We are grateful to God for the best report made in any year
since the Italian Mission was enterprised. Brother Cameron, in
co-operation with the Nurse and Deaconess, placed in the coal
field by the Woman's Missionary Society of the Conference, has
the hearty indorsement of the District Conference in which he
labors, and the enthusiastic support of his Presiding Elder. Forty
professions of conversion among a foreign people in one year give
us great comfort as to the future of the Mission.
During the year we have lost by resignation the services of
that untiring promoter of Christian education. Rev. Eugene Blake,
who for so many years has wrought successfully as the president of
Hiwasse College. In his stead we elected Rev. J. E. Lowry, who
reports the largest enrollment in the history of the college.
We call attention here to the simultaneous canvass already pre-
sented to the Conference and urge every charge to take advantage
of it.
The first Sunday in each month is recommended for Missionary
Day in the Sunday School, on which a suitable program should be
carried out.
The following apportionments have been made to the districts
of the Conference:

mittee, which shall be charged with the duty of enforcing all
rules and regulations of the Board and of acting for the Board
in all matters of administration in the interim of the Board meet-
ings. They shall make a full report of their acts to the Board
for its approval.
3. A committee on estimates shall be elected by the Board, to
whom shall be referred all requests for aid. They shall make a
careful estimate of the amounts to be appropriated, of the sum
needed by the Board for its work, and of the apportionments to
be made of the same, together with the assessments of the General
Board of Missions to the several Districts of the Conference, and
report to the Board for final action; provided that, the Board may,
at its pleasure, consider the estimates in committee of the whole.
4. An auditing committee of three members of the Board of
Missions, appointed for the quadrennium, shall employ an expert
accountant to examine annually the books and accounts of the
Treasurer.
5. The Board shall hold its annual meeting during the session
of the Annual Conference, at which all appropriations for aid to
pastoral charges shall be made. These appropriations shall not
in any year exceed 90 per cent, of the income for the year ended,
until the reserve shall reach $8,000, after which the appropria-
tions shall not exceed 95 per cent.
6. A Mid-year Meeting with the Presiding Elders and District
Lay Leaders shall be held annually in the month of February, the
time and place to be fixed by the Executive Committee, who shall,
in co-operation with a Presiding Elder appointed by the Presiding

meeting shall be to make any necessary readjustments in the appro-
priations, provided the amount appropriated at the Annual Meet-
ing is not exceeded; to discuss work, and advise ways and means
for making it effective. All new enterprises to be projected and
new missions to be established should be presented for considera-
tion at this meeting.
7. The policy of the Board shall be to reduce appropriations to
the different missions each year when at all practicable. The
Board will continue the policy of making appropriations condi-
tioned on the amount paid for pastor's salary by the charge re-
ceiving aid.
8. The Board will not grant appropriations when it is evident,
after careful investigation, that an adjustment of the work could
be made so as to avoid the necessity for an appropriation.
9. The Board will decline to make appropriations in the absence
of satisfactory information, and in order to obtain this information
will insist that the blanks furnished by the Board be filled and
returned by the Presiding Elder for new missions, and by the
94 EOLSTON ANNUAL

aries of the missionaries in its employ, quarterly, payable Jan-
uary 15, April 15, July 15 and on the first day of the session of

made on blanks furnished by the Board.
13. All Conference Evangelists shall report quarterly on blanks
to be furnished by the Board.
14. The Treasurer of the Board will pay funds only on drafts
signed by the Secretary and endorsed by the payee.
15. Whenever one pastor shall be appointed to serve two
charges to which appropriations have been made, the Secretary
shall issue to him drafts for the amount appropriated to the charge
receiving the larger sum only. Whenever a pastor appointed to a
mission charge has already received aid from one of the Confer-
ence Boards, the Secretary shall issue no drafts, except for such
amount as the appropriation to the mission may exceed the amount
he has already received.
16. The Board shall appropriate out of its funds to pay the
expenses of the Mid-year Meeting of the Executive Committee and
of the officers of the Board in discharge of their duties as officers.

BOOKS AND PERIODICALS.
Your committee beg to magnify the function of the press. As
of old, God speaks not only through the lips of the prophet or
preacher, but through the pen of the writer. Evangelism calls as
truly from the press as for the pulpit.
Our publishing house, in its branches at home and abroad, still
prospers in every way — sale of books has been unprecedented and
progress enjoyed in every way. We give praise to God. We ex-
press appreciation of the service done the Church in keeping open
the best and safest market for good books, the classics of the past
generations of authors, and the best of the new publications. We
rejoice in the growing popularity of the books, Holston History.
The volumes written grow upon our appreciation, both because of
the wonderful story they tell and the happy art with which the story
is told. We hope the next volumes will be soon forthcoming.
We rejoice in the efficiency of all the editors of our organs —
The Christian Advocate, Midland Methodist, Epworth Era, Mis-
sionary Voice, Sunday School Literature and Review. We ear-
nestly request our preachers and people to help our editors by
sending proper locals from their charges.
98 HOLSTON ANNUAL
The Midland Methodist, our Conference organ, has a larger
circulation now than ever before in the Conference. We commend
the editorial work of Rev. T. C. Schuler during the past year, and
heartily indorse the election of Dr. J. A. Burrow as editor for the
ensuing year. We urge the brethren to redouble their efforts to
Increase still further the circulation of the Conference organ and
place a copy of the paper in every Methodist home in our territory
wherever possible.
FRANK JACKSON, Secretary.
T. C. SCHULER, Chairman.
N
EPWORTH LEAGUE BOARD.
Oar boys and girls today are the leaders of the church tomorrow.
Their power and efficiency as leaders will depend upon their early
training. The Epworth League was organized to conserve the young
life of our churches — to train our boys and girls for strong and
efficient leadership. That the purpose of its organization has been
abundantly realized there is no longer any doubt. The Epworth
League is here to stay. Hosts of strong men and women all over
our connection without hesitation attribute their power and useful-
ness in the church to their early connection with the Epworth
League. And yet this great agency for the training of our young
life is only partially utilized by our churches. Many of our pastors
do not seem to realize the vital usefulness of the organization.
While they are absorbed in their concern for the adult membership
of their churches, the young people are allowed to drift. It ought
to be the foremost concern of every pastor in the Holston Con-
ference to organize Junior and Senior Chapters whenever possible;
when no leaders are immediately available, to train leaders; to
give close and sympathetic attention to all the operations of these
chapters, and to emphasize the development of the League mem-
bership along all the four departments, not only devotional, but
social, literary and missionary. Especially does the department
of missionary work offer to the church her supreme opportunity
to make a future membership tremendously valuable to our mis-
sionary duty and opportunity. Be it resolved:
First, That our pastors, wherever possible, organize both Junior
and Senior Chapters of the Epworth League.
Second, That our pastors give more of their personal attention
to the maintenance of all departments of the League Chapters in
their charges.
Third, That we commend the General Epworth Board for the

AMERICAN BIBLE SOCIETY.
The American Bible Society is in the ninety-eighth year of its
existence, and the annual report shows a healthy growth in the
translation and distribution of the Bible. The Bible will soon be
printed in all the languages of the world. The translation and
distribution of the word of God has kept pace with and in many
instances has gone before the missionaries, and prepared the soil
for the planting of the gospel. Wherever the Bible has been given
to individuals or nations it has broken the shackles of slavery and
superstition and given liberty and freedom. It is the eternal truth
of God, that maketh free.
The American Bible Society is the commissary department that
furnishes the supplies for the equipment of our missionaries who
are engaged in the conquest of the nations of the world, that they
may become kingdoms of our Lord. If our missionaries are to be
supplied with the Bible in the languages of the people to whom
they are preaching, if agencies are to be established throughout
the mission fields of the world, the American Bible Society must
keep pace with the rapid increase of the missionary forces at home
and abroad.
There is an imperative demand for a constant enlargement of
the necessary equipment and agencies for Bible translation and
distribution. The gifts of the churches to the Bible Society must
keep pace with the ever increasing gifts and assessments made for
the increase of our missionary forces. Our last General Conference
recommends that an assessment of 2 cents per capita of our entire
membership b© made for the Bible cause. This would, in our
Conference, mean an increase in our assessment from $800.00 to
$1,450.00. Owing to the present business depression and un-
certainty on account of the war it would be unwise to make such
a large increase at one time. Therefore your Board recommends
that our assessment for the Bible cause for the coming year be
$1,000; that we make this the minimum. And we recommend
that every pastor make an effort to raise his contribution to 2 cents
per member. We rejoice to find that on an assessment of $800.00,
$894.61 has been paid, giving us a surplus of $94.61. The Board
decided to appropriate only one-fourth, rather than one-half, as
per our report of last year, for use in our own Conference.
The assessment for the American Bible Society is proportioned
as follows:

MEMOIRS
WILMAM C. FABIS.
Fifty-eight years ago, the 13th of this month, there was born
into the home of Samuel Faris, near St. Clair, Hawkins County,
Tennessee, the subject of this sketch. From boyhood he was in-
tensely religious. "He was born," some one said, "with his face
in the right direction, and never stopped going." At an early age
he came into a conscious experience of communion with God,
through the influence of the country Sunday school which he
attended. Soon after this he joined the church. When he was
eighteen years of age, under the powerful and soul-searching preach-
ing of Rev. H. P. Waugh, he was deeply convicted. While in this
state God unexpectedly to him revealed the fact that he must
preach. As he says, "I wanted religion, but God said, 'Be a
preacher;' I wanted pardon for my sins, but God said, 'Preach.'
The very moment I was willing to preach all was well with my
soul."
He was given license as a local preacher July 7, 1877, at St.
Clair, Rev. W. R. Barnett being the preacher in charge, and Rev.
Grinsfield Taylor conducting the Quarterly Conference in place of
Rev. Carroll Long, who could not be present. His first efforts were
not, from a sermonic standpoint, notable successes, but his neigh-
bors believed in him, and loved him, and came to hear him preach.
Even in those early days he averaged about fifty sermons each
year.
In the short sketch of his life which he wrote he gives the
following interesting account of one of his first revival efforts:
"Our pastor, W. R. Barnett, asked me to preach on Friday night
of his meeting. After having been released from study by Prof.
Broyles, I spent the afternoon with God in prayer so as to be
ready for the night service to be held in the St. Clair Academy. My
text was, 'What shall I do to be saved,' and the answer, 'Believe
in the Lord Jesus Christ and thou shalt be saved, and thy house.'
At the conclusion of the sermon about thrirty-three persons came
to the altar and were saved in a few moments. This success
stimulated my vanity as well as drove me to my knees. Oh, for
such soul-winning power now."
He joined the Annual Conference at Morristown, Tennessee,
in October, 1880, and served the following charges: Grassy Cove,
two years; Hixson, two years; Dunlap, three years; Scarboro, one
year; Andersonville, two years; Louisville, three years; Fineastle,
three years; Greeneville Circuit, three years; Whiteside Circuit,
two years; Trenton, three years; Jasper, one year; Ooltewah, three
years, and Hixson, one year. 'These were, from the standpoint of
salary, among the poorest in the Conference, but who shall say
from the standpoint of opportunity they were not among the best?
We rate our preachers and their work often by artificial standards,
but God's standard is far different from ours.
He was somewhat slow in his movements and very deliberate
in speech. His power of expression was not equal to the character
and movement of his thought. However, there were times when,
under Divine influence, he seemed to leap over all these barriers
H0L8T0N ANNUAL 101
and sweep his congregation with him. His early education was
limited, but he overcame this largely by the constant companionship
of good books. For his opportunities, I counted him a man well
educated and of good general information. His favorite study was
astronomy. He told me one night, as we stood under the shining
stars, that he knew his way among the constellations as well as
he knew the country about his boyhood home, and demonstrated
his statement by pointing out numerous stars, giving their names
and the groups to which they belonged.
As a Christian he belonged to that pure, ethical and deeply
spiritual type which impresses and influences men by kindness
and love. In the Highland Park Church, which he attended with
his family, his name was like ointment poured forth. His loss
was felt as a sore bereavement.
The final test of a man's power for good is measured by his
impress on his own family. Judged by this standard, Bro. Faris
was a success. With his faithful, loyal and consecrated wife, Hattie,
the daughter of a Methodist preacher. Rev. Wm. R. Rush, of Grassy
Cove, Tenn., he reared a family of five children: two daughters —
Bell and Mrs. Mamie Neighbors; and three sons — Fred, Robert and
Dean, of splendid character, devoted to God and the Church. How
they gave the daughters a collegiate education, put the oldest boy
in the University, kept the younger ones in high school and paid
for a comfortable home is beyond the ken of any but the good God
who filled the widow's barrel with meal, and who still lives and
reigns in the world.
When the time came for his superannuation it was a trying
ordeal. But he adjusted himself to the changed conditions, taking
advantage of every opportunity to preach and to witness for his
Lord. For two years before his death he went regularly every
Sunday afternoon to the county work house at Orchard Knob,
preaching to the negro men in chains, many of whom, under his
loving ministry, were released from the capitivity of the great
enemy of our souls. Could any ministry be more acceptable than
this to our Lord, whose claim as the One to come was based on
the fact that the poor had the gospel preached unto them?
The end came December 19, 1913, so suddenly that few of
us were aware of the serious and insidiously fatal malady that
years before had laid hold on him. His testimony was clear and
ringing, with no uncertain sound. We laid him to rest in Forest
Hills to wait the coming of his Lord.

JOHN H. BRUNNER.
John Hamilton Brunner, son of Joseph and Elizabeth Brunner,
of Greene County, Tenn., was born March 12, 1825. December 10,
1850, he was united in marriage to Miss Elizabeth Key, of Monroe
County, Tennessee, Rev. Jesse Cunnyngham officiating. He died
of heart failure at his home near Hiwassee College February 18,
1914, aged eighty-eight years, eleven months and six days, his
wife having preceded him one year and fifteen days, at the ripe
age of eighty-seven years. The children numbered seven, all of
whom are dead save Mr. A. T. Brunner, of Hiwassee College, Mrs.
Ralph Hunt, of Philadelphia, Miss., and Mrs. R. C. Humphreys,
of Whiting, Ind.
Dr. Brunner was president of Hiwassee College about thirty-
three years, though not continuously. He devoted the greater part
102 HOLSTON ANNUAL
of his life, energies and means to helping indigent young men secure
an education. His mind and faculties were clear and bright to
the end of his life. He told his son, iMr. A. T. Brunner, the night
before he died, that the end was near, but that he was ready and
willing to go, that he had no fear and longed to be with his loved
ones who had gone on before.
Dr. G. C. Rankin said of him, in the Texas Christian Advocate:
"The life of such a man is worthy of more than a passing notice.
He came upon the stage of action in the years when Methodism was
comparatively young in the hill country and no man contributed
more to its success and progress than he. When this writer was
an infant. Dr. Brunner traveled our circuit in East Tennessee, and
one of his regular preaching appointments was in our grandmother's
house. Church buildings were scarce in those days. He and the
writer's father were warm and cordial friends, though the latter
has been dead fifty-two years.
"Dr. Brunner was a preacher of the old school, rather terse
and sententious in style, but lucid and comprehensive. He was a
learned man, well read in all sorts of literature and history, and
a teacher of renowned ability. Nearly fifty years ago he identified
himself with Hiwassee College and here is where he did his most
important work. He made it his business to see to it that no
aspiring and worthy boy was ever turned down in his effort to obtain
an education. Forty years ago, poor and without influential friends,
this writer applied to him for entrance into that well-known school.
He gave us his warmest welcome and at no time did he ever suggest
to us the financial part of it. We sat at his feet until we had
finished his course and then entered the Holston Conference. His
love and confidence have followed us like that of a father from
that day till his translation. Our love for him was like that of
a son for a father. He stands out in memory today as the most
valued counselor and friend we have ever had outside of the home
circle.
"Throughout the extent of our country there are those in all
the honorable walks of life to rise up and call him blessed. The
last time we had the pleasure of visiting him he said to us, 'My
chief pleasure is found in my communion with the Master and
calling to mind the hundreds of my boys through whom I am still
living and working in the varied pursuits of life. When my
earthly pilgrimage closes I will still be active in the lives they
are living. Among them all you stand very close to my heart.'
What a blessing that we ever fell under his molding influence!
Throughout all these years of toil and struggle his short, fatherly
letters have come to us with the regularity of the weeks.
"He lived and wrought to great advantage. He had an iron
constitution, a large, well-developed physical frame, tremendous
head and a most benign face. To look at him was to see a man
born to do great things. He would have been noticed in a gathering
of thousands. He had a transparent heart, and a countenance
frank and open. He was a judge of human nature. He knew
how to size up character at a glance. When a boy once found his
way into Dr. Brunner's heart he was fixed, but woe betide the
fellow who took advantage of his confidence and deceived the trust
placed in him. He knew how to love and how to confide. He
knew how to punish with his keen displeasure when punishment
was deserved. He made himself one with his students. There
was no chasm between him and them; yet no boy ever became so
familiar with him as to lose respect for his authority. Had he
been ambitious he might have shone in the wide circles of the
Church. He had the brain and the training. But he was content
HOLSTON ANNUAL 103
to select a smaller sphere and devote his life to helping those who
needed his tuition and accomplishment. Hence, amid the scenes of
old Hiwassee, embowered amid its Arcadian groves and undulating
hills, he lived and wrought and died. From there his influence
has gone out almost without limit, and a score of the States of
this Union are the beneficiaries of his self-sacrificing toil and devoted
labor. May the clods rest lightly o'er his dust and may the flowers
bloom perennially around his tomb! Father in Israel, adieu!"
CHARLES K. MILLER.
Charles K. Miller was born on Walker's Creek, in Bland County,
Virginia, September 7, 1832, and died at his home in Rural Retreat,
Va., December 31, 1913, aged eighty-one years. He was the son
of Charles and Mary McNeil Miller, of Bland County, Virginia, and
is survived by one brother, Alexander Miller, of Mechanicsburg, Va.
There are three brothers and one sister deceased. He was happily
married to Miss Amanda Young, of Grayson County, Virginia, on
May 5, 1865. Six children came to bless this union, four of whom,
together with the sorrowing wife, survive him.
When a boy of fifteen Brother Miller was converted and joined
the iMethodist Episcopal Church, South, at Hoge's Camp Ground, in
Bland County, Virginia. He was licensed to preach by the Quar-
terly Conference of the Mechanicsburg Circuit, at Newberry's Chapel,
on Dec. 5, 1857, his license being signed by E. C. Wexler, Presiding
Elder, and G. W. K, Green, Secretary. He was received on trial
into the traveling connection at Asheville, N. C, October 17, 1860,
and was ordained Deacon at Athens, Tenn., October 17, 1862, by
Bishop Early, and by him was ordained Elder at Marion, Va.,
September 14, 1865. He served faithfully and well the following
charges: Wytheville Circuit, Virginia, as junior preacher; Inde-
pendence Circuit, in Grayson County, Virginia; Lebanon, Russel
County, Virginia; Jefferson Circuit, North Carolina; Morristown
and Jacksboro, in Tennessee; Elk Creek, Va. ; Rural Retreat, Va.
The Rural Retreat Circuit was his last charge. In the fall of 1884
he was superannuated on account of ill health, which relation he
held until death.
Brother Miller was a strong and forceful, yet logical, preacher,
and his messages were simple and plain. He believed in the power
of the Gospel, which he preached to save men from sin. He pos-
sessed a passion for souls. Few men of his time in active ministry
saw more people converted and received into the Church. He was
once heard to say to J. T. Guy, his pastor, that there were more than
five hundred professions of conversions during his pastorate of two
years on the Lebanon Circuit. He did not court the plaudits of
the world. His highest delight was to know what was the will of
God, and then endeavor to do it at any cost. He loved God and
God's ministry and people. The fires of the true itinerant continued
to burn in his soul during the long years of his superannuation.
He took a deep interest in all the affairs of the Church. He never
became sour or morose, but maintained a cheerful and patient spirit.
No bitter speech, no unkind word, was heard to fall from his lips.
He grew old nobly.
As a father and husband he was kind and considerate; an hon-
ored and beloved citizen, whose counsel was respected by all. And
withal he was truly a man of God. His faith grew stronger and
his prospect brighter as he approached the end of life's journey.
104 HOLSTON ANNUAL
He loved to talk of heaven, and seemed to anticipate an abundant
entrance into the everlasting kingdom of his heavenly Father.
No one doubts that he was ready. His pure, devout and noble spirit
is gone up to join the hosts of the Church triumphant; and that
is not death, that is victory — victory over death and over the grave.
It is a blessed promotion. A glorious transition from the com-
panionship of physical weakness and pain and sorrow of earth, to
the fellowships of heaven.
"Forever with the Lord,
Amen, so let it be;
Life from the dead is in the Word,
'Tis immortality."
May the God of All Grace comfort and bless with His gracious
presence the faithful companion of his life in the loneliness of
her widowhood, and the children in this their great loss.

MRS. JOHN WESLEY SMITH.
Lucy Jordan, daughter of Crockett I. and Ellen Miller Jordan,
of Pulaski County, Virginia, was born April 2 9, 1853, and died
at the home of her son, in Chicago, December 14, 1913. She was
married to Rev. J. Wesley Smith on October 2, 1883, and to them
was born one son, Paul J. Smith, now a preacher of Chicago.
She was converted at old Thorn Spring Church, Pulaski County,
Virginia; joined the Methodist Episcopal Church, South, in early
youth, and ever afterwards she was a devout and active Christian
worker. Her ideal of the Christian life was drawn from the
Word of God, and the practice of her life was in keeping with
that ideal. She was educated, refined, unassuming, and, best of
all, deeply pious, which adorned her life in all its relations.
It v/as my fortune to have been her pastor seven years, and I
must say that she was universally beloved because of the splendid
traits of character that won all wlio knew her. She was always
bright and cheerful, true and faithful, lifting the burdens from
many a troubled heart as she went by. In God she trusted and
took great delight in associating with His people. Being gifted
with a melodious voice, she consecrated it to the service of her
Lord in singing the songs of Zion, to the joy of many a soul.
With a noble and self-sacrificing spirit, her life was filled with
words and deeds of helpfulness to others. In the Church and
its societies, where she was an active and earnest v/orker, her
presence and holy influence will be sadly missed. In the wide
circle of relatives and friends, who knew her only to love her,
her departure is greatly mourned. To her own household as an
affectionate, faithful and devoted wife, and as a devoted and loving
mother, her death came as an almost unbearable sorrow.
The last two years of her life were spent in Chicago with her
husband, keeping house for her preacher son. There, upon Thurs-
day evening, returning from holding a bazaar to raise funds for
a church, pneumonia began its fearful work, and the following
Sunday at 1 p. m. her sweet spirit went home to God. "Absent
from the body, present with the Lord." A light has gone out
HOLSTON ANNUAL 105
that gave joy and happiness here in the home and in the Church.
Let the bereaved find comfort in the fact that she has heard the
welcome, "Well done, good and faithful servant," and entered the
house of many mansions.
Services were conducted both in Chicago and Chattanooga.
Dr. Foster, Dean of the University of Chicago, and Dr. Aikin, of
the Methodist Church in Chicago, held services in Chicago; Rev.
J. A, Burrow, Rev. James W. Moore, and all the Southern Meth-
odist pastors of Chattanooga, took part in the service in Chatta-
nooga. Her body sleeps in Forest Hills, under the shadow of
Lookout Mountain. ^^ jj PRICE
MRS. LEE M. BURBIS.
Nellie Jordon Callahan, daughter of Rev. George A. and Mrs.
MoUie E, Callahan, was born at Dublin, Pulaski County, Vir-
ginia, August 5, 1892, and departed this life at Coal Creek, Tenn.,
October 17, 1913, being only a little over 21 years old. She
was converted and joined the Methodist Episcopal Church, South,
under the ministry of Brother Burris, October 7, 1906, at the
tender age of 14 years. When a child her father moved from the
place of her nativity to Wythe County, Virginia, where she grew
to womanhood and where she acquired a good common school
education. But school did not complete her development. She
thought fully and carefully, read good books, good literature in
general, especially the Bible. Her intellectual development was
very marked, if not marvelous. In fact, she grew rapidly in all
the graces of Christian womanhood.
As a child she was sweet-spirited and kind, having a smile
and kind word for all with whom she came in contact. This
spirit, sweetened by the presence of the Holy Spirit, made her
a faithful and devoted wife and mother, and a zealous worker
for the oncoming of the kingdom of God. She was happily married
to Rev. Lee M. Burris, of the Holston Conference, by Rev. W. M.
Morrell, October 19, 1907. To this couple were born two children,
one boy and one girl. The little boy preceded the mother to the
better country. The little girl remains to cheer the lonely life
of the husband and father.
Sister Burris was a woman of charming personality, with a
high degree of intellectual and spiritual development, who presided
like a queen in her home and gave herself without reserve to all
of the difficult and delicate tasks imposed on her as the wife of
an itinerant Methodist preacher. Though the charges which
Brother Burris served demanded almost niggardly economy, she
did not complain, but gladly bore all, and gave herself to further
the work of her husband and her divine Lord. All who knew
her loved her. In those charges served by her husband she num-
bered her friends by the score. How well the writer of these
lines remembers sharing the hospitality of their parsonage home!
How sweetly and simply it was dispensed by her hand! But that
gentle spirit went away, when she was just ready to take charge
of the little parsonage of the Bristol Circuit at Wallace, Va.
What a void her departure made in the work of the circuit, and
especially in the heart of her husband!
Her body was tenderly brought back to the home of her child-
hood, in Wythe County, Virginia, where, after appropriate services.
106 HOLSTON ANNUAL
conducted by Dr. M. P. Carico, it was laid to rest to await the
resurrection of the just. May God in his mercy comfort the hus-
band and tenderly care for the little orphan.
GEORGE D. FRENCH.
MRS. S. L. BROWNING.
Mattie J. Hancher was born in Washington County, Tennessee,
December 22, 1881, and departed this life from the parsonage
at Madisonville, of which charge her husband was pastor, August
14, 1914, after an illness of many weeks. She was the daughter
of W. A. and Emma Hancher, and a granddaughter ot Rev.
James A. Hancher, of the English Lutheran Church.
She was married to Rev. Samuel L. Browning October 7,
1900. To this happy union five children were born — Helen, Charles,
Ethel, Margaret and Stephen, all of whom survive, and all of
tender age, the eldest twelve years and the youngest three months
old at the time of the mother's death.
Sister Browning v/as a devoted Christian from her childhood.
When nine years of age she attended revival services in a United
Brethren Church near her home and, yielding her heart to her
Savior, was happily converted. She immediately united with the
Lutheran Church and remained a consistent member of the same
until after her marriage, when she became a member of the
Methodist Episcopal Church, South. She was a woman v.'ho pos-
sessed, to a rare degree, those old-time, tried virtues of wifehood
and motherhood, which have entered into and helped to fashion
all that is noble and beautiful in the Christian home. To her
husband she was a helpmeet indeed. Often by her loving counsel
and encouragement did she open up a clear way that led out
from perplexity and doubt. To her children she was a firm,
yet tender and devoted, mother. Hers was a well ordered home.
There was law, but the law was love. She considered her children
an heritage of the Lord, and to bring them up in His nurture and
admonition was her constant endeavor. She was a woman of
prayer and taught her children to pray. In the absence of the
husband and father she regularly conducted family worship.
With her hands thus full of the holy calling of motherhood,
although not in robust health, she was nevertheless devoted to the
church, manifesting a keen interest in its welfare. She taught a
class in the Sunday school, and was a worker in the Woman's
Missionary Society, never failing to be present when her strength
permitted. She fitted well into the place of an itinerant preacher's
wife. By the simplicity of her life and her devotion to the church
she endeared herself to the hearts of God's people. Without
ostentation, possessed of a quiet and peaceable spirit, of equable
temper, self-controlled and patient, she won and kept the con-
fidence and esteem of all who knew her. She appreciated her
parsonage home, and enjoyed the life of a Methodist preacher's
wife. Speaking of this she often said, "I am so thankful that
the Lord gave me such a place in life."
On a cloudless Sabbath morning, August 16, her funeral was
conducted by her Presiding Elder, assisted by Rev. J. M. Knight,
of the United Brethren Church, a childhood companion and friend
of both Brother and Sister Browning, in the M. E. Church, South,
at Madisonville, Tenn. Every church in the charge was represented
in a vast concourse of sympathetic friends, many of whom could
H0L8T0N ANNUAL 107
not find even standing room in the church. Her body was laid
to rest in the Madisonville Cemetery, there to await the "general
resurrection in the last day, and the life of the world to come,
through our Lord Jesus Christ." rp j eSKRIDGE
ELIZABETH JANE SMITH.
Elizabeth Jane Smith, daughter of Peter and Letitia Kelly
Morrison, was born near Kingsport, Tenn., February 24, 1834.
At the age of ten years, at a camp meeting conducted at Brush
Creek Camp Ground by Revs. Nat Taylor, William G. Brownlow
and her uncle, Samuel Patton, she definitely sought and found the
more abundant life in Christ. This supreme fact of her earthly
experience she never doubted. Her life, redeemed from the power
and dominion of sin, became, in Christ, a redemptive force, and
many of her associates were, through the beauty, strength and
exemplary character of that life, won to the life that is in Him.
On November 4, 1857, she was married to Rev. James T.
Smith, of the Holston Conference, and for thirty years she shared
with him the varying experiences of the life itinerant. Three
children were born to brighten and bless their home, all of whom
reached maturity. Only one of that number now remains on this
side of the river — Sister Hunter, wife of Rev. A. B. Hunter, of
our Conference.
Sister Smith knew most of the older preachers of the Con-
ference, now living, and especially enjoyed having read the "History
of Holston Methodism," having known, personally, many of those
whose experiences and achievements are therein recounted. The
writer, while not intimately acquainted with the subject of this
sketch, desires to record his appreciation of a life lived faithfully,
unassumingly and well.
It seemed, even to a casual acquaintance, that in her face
there slept the warmth and brightness of balmier skies. There
was pictured there the calmness of an unshaken faith in God and
in the promised life of heaven. The illusions and tragedies of an
experience running through more than four-score years disturbed
not the even tenor of that life; and when, on July 21, 1914, near
set of sun, in the station parsonage at Graham, Va., surrounded
by those whom, in life, she had loved best, the final summons came,
she met it without a struggle or a fear, and the gentle spirit of
this mother in Israel, "leaving its outgrown shell by Life's un-
resting sea," began to live the life triumphant.
JAMES E. SPRING.
MRS. WILLIAM ROBESON.
Adaline Patton was born February 8, 1832, at the home of
her father, Vincent Easley, in Sullivan County, Tennessee, and
died at her home near Morristown, Tenn., November 11, 1913,
at the ripe age of eighty-one years, nine months and three days.
She was of a historical Methodist family. Her paternal great-
grandfather was Stephen Easley, of English blood, who, in the
year 1782, came from Halifax County, Virginia, and entered land
on Horse Creek at its junction with Holston River. This home
was one of Bishop Asbury's favorite stopping places in his annual
108 HOLSTON ANNUAL
missionary rounds, and one of the strongholds of early Methodism.
Mrs. Robeson's maternal great-grandparents were Timothy AcufC
and Anna Leigh, who were early settlers of Sullivan County. Mr,
Acuff entered land in that county in 1773. He also was a friend
of Asbury, and often entertained him. He gave from his farm
the land upon which was erected Acuff's Chapel, the first Methodist
meeting house in Tennessee.
Vincent Easley was a Methodist, as were his forefathers. He
was a leading citizen of his section, and a man of unusual intelli-
gence and information. Even at that early day he had an excellent
library, and, although a newspaper was a rarity in his time and
section, files of his old newspapers are still kept by his descend-
ants, among which is the Washington City "National Intelligencer"
covering the period of the Mexican War. His daughter, Mrs.
Robeson, inherited his breadth of mind. Her education received
due attention, and she is said to have attained a remarkable pro-
ficiency in her studies, especially in mathematics. As a young lady
she was much beloved and admired. On January 21, 1851, at
her father's residence, she was married to the Rev. William Robe-
son, of the Holston Conference, whose successful itinerant career
on stations, circuits and districts extended from 1844 to his super-
annuation in 1874. To this union were born eight children. The
surviving children are Mrs. Felicia Robeson Weaver, of Arizona,
and Hon. W. A. Robeson and Prof. J. M. Robeson, of Morristown,
Tenn.
Mrs. Robeson was left in the weeds of widowhood May 2 9,
1905, after which she removed from her home at Highland Mills,
near Blountville, Tenn., to her home near Morristown, Tenn. Of
her it may truthfully be said that she had the mind of a philosopher,
combined with the modesty, gentleness and tenderness of the true
woman. In deliberation she was able to place a just estimate on
the arguments on both sides of a question, giving to each its due
weight. This ability, coupled with her absolute integrity, made
her a just and impartial judge as she solved the problems which
so often came before her in her long life of care and service. Her
love was generous. She gave herself in love; and the gift was
not belittled by the thought of recompense. How glad and spon-
taneous was her love of little children! How profound was her
love for the great and the good of earth! Many sought her
counsel and her sympathy, and she did not disappoint them. She
loved with all her heart the good and the pure. She passionately
loved Christianity and her Church and she loved God supremely.
Her home life in the relations of mother and wife gave the highest
expression of her true greatness. Her efficiency was of a high
order. Cheerfulness, industry, watchfulness, faithfulness and uni-
form kindness marked her daily life. She knew the "soft answer,"
but she never gave the answer of fear or of improper compromise.
Mrs. Robeson joined the Metliodist Church at Horse Creek
Camp Ground, having been baptized in her infancy by Rev. Thomas
Wilkerson. She was rich in the Christian virtues of patience and
loving kindness; but her faith, transcendant among her Christian
graces, covered all things whatsoever and answered for her every
question of time or eternity. To say "Thy will be done" is the
highest triumph of Christian faitli. Those close to her have heard
her say it, but far better, they have seen her when with all the
power of her soul she was showing her complete and glad sub-
mission to God's will and therefore her exalted faith.
Her last years were years of affliction, but she was uniformly
uncomplaining and indeed cheerful. Hers was the death of the
H0L8T0N ANNUAL 109
righteous, and she went in peace to her incorruptible reward. One
who was with her at the last wrote of her: "Her going away
was a stately departure." She had truly dignified and ennobled
every state or condition of life into which she had ever come;
she dignified and ennobled death. There were no formal farewells,
but there were brief words of love and appreciation for those about
her. Then, while yet with us, she entered with One who was
nearer to her than any other into a communion whose blessedness
we can not know; but we heard the low words of her victory and
assurance: "Tho' I walk through the valley of the shadow of
death, I will fear no evil; for thou art with me; thy rod and thy
staff, they comfort me." „ ^

CARE OF CONFERENCE FUNDS.
Chattanooga, Tennessee, November 4, 1914.
To the Commission of the Methodist Episcopal Church, South, con-
sisting of Messrs. F. A. Carter, J. A. Burrow, G. L. Hardwick,
R. P. Purse and W. G. M. Thomas, appointed by the Holston
Annual Conference of said Church, at its recent session of 1914:
Gentlemen:
To you, and through you, to the Holston Conference of your
Church, and the interested Trustees and Boards, we beg to pro-
pose the following, which we believe you will find to cover and in-
clude, in a formal manner, the offer which we informally laid be-
fore you at your meeting today:
If you shall see proper to select and appoint our Bank the de-
pository and General Treasurer of the benevolent and trust funds
of the various boards of the Holston Conference of the Methodist
Episcopal Church, South, we will accept the trust, and perform it
in full accordance with the letter and spirit of the document which
is attached hereto, marked exhibit "A," and made a part hereof.
Other terms of this proposal are:
1. That we shall receive no compensation.
2. That we are to be repaid the expense incurred for neces-
sary stamps, stationery and printing used in adminis-
tering the trust and office.
3. That, during the 1915 session of the Annual Conference
we will furnish free of charge a competent employee,
or employees, who will go to the Annual Conference and
remain there through the session — we to be repaid the
cost of the railway fare and hotel bills.
4. That on all funds in regular Savings Account we will
pay four per cent. (4%) interest per annum compounded
semi-annually; and on Certificates of Deposit issued for
either six (6) months or twelve (12) months, four per
cent (4%) interest to be paid.
5. That, on checking account, we will pay three per cent.
(3%) interest per annum on minimum monthly balances,
to be credited monthly; it being our intention on the first
day of each month to transfer, so far as possible, the
amounts on hand to the Savings Account, keeping on
hand in the checking account merely enough to cover
the current payments of that month.
6. That in addition to the regular interest, any profit to
us, arising from a charge, a fee, a commission, or other-
wise, on any investment or loan of the funds made by
us, such profit shall belong, and go to the Board whose
funds were invested or loaned. All such profits we
agree to donate for the benefit of the Church, save only
that, from the same, we will be repaid any actual ex-
1Q4 H0L8T0N ANNUAL
penses incurred by us growing out of making and caring
for the loan or investment.
7. That, without any expense to you, the Conference, or
the interested Trustees or Boards, we are to keep all
necessary books, records, etc., and carry on such corre-
spondence, make such reports, and do all such other
things as rshall comply fully with said exhibit "A"
hereto.
8. That there shall be no charge made by our Bank for
collection of checks coming in from other Counties or
States.
9. That, this contract shall remain in force until the closing
of the 1915 Session of the Holston Annual Conference
of your Church, and until after the year's accounts shall
have been closed, and the statistical reports prepared
and furnished as per exhibit "A."
10. That your Commission shall be the guiding, advisory,
and controlling authority with respect to the formality
and the administration by us of this office and trust,
unless otherwise instructed by the constituted authori-
ties of the Church.
Your acceptance of this proposal shall constitute a contract be-
tween us; and this communication, and your acceptance will be
executed in duplicate.
Respectfully submitted,
CHATTANOOGA SAVINGS BANK,
By W. A. Sadd, President.
Attest:
R. W. Barr, Cashier.
To the Chattanooga Savings Bank,
Chattanooga, Teun.
Gentlemen:
By virtue of the authority vested in us by resolution of the

tion; and you are selected and appointed the depository and Gen-
eral Treasurer accordingly.
We wish to thank you for your proposal, which we consider
fair to our Church, and liberal and generous on your part; and
we trust your business relations with the Conference, its Boards,
ministers and laymen, may be pleasant and satisfactory to all con-
cerned.
This November 4, 1914.
