NOTE 


We  are  compelled  to  raise  the  price  of  the  Annual  to  35  cents  per  copy 
to  pay  the  actual  cost  of  printing  and  mailing.  Close  collections  are  necessary 
even  then  to  "make  buckle  and  tongue  meet."  Preachers  are  allowed  no  mar- 
gin of  profit,  and  do  not  make  a  penny  out  of  the  selling.  It  is  important, 
therefore,  that  these  preachers  be  promptly  paid.  They  will  remit  as  soon  as 
copies  are  sold,  to  the  Chattanooga  Savings  Bank.  The  Secretary,  at  Chatta- 
nooga, will  send  additional  copies,  when  ordered,  so  long  as  the  edition  lasts. 

JAMES  A.  BURROW, 

Secretary.

OUR   SAINTED   DEAD 

"And  I  heard  a  voice  from  Heaven  saying  unto  me,  Write,  Blessed  are  the  dead  which 
die  in  the  Lord,  from  henceforth ;  Yea,  saith  the  Spirit,  that  they  may  rest  from  their  labors ; 
and  their  works  do  follow  them."— Rev.  xiv:  13.

Resolution. — The  following  resolution  was  adopted : 

Our  superannuate  fund  for  those  who  have  made  Holston  Conference 
one  of  the  leading  Conferences  in  our  beloved  Methodism  is  of  such 
meager  provision  for  these  faithful  ones  in  their  declining  years  that 
we  wish  to  lay  it  on  the  hearts  of  the  Conference  and  membership  in 
our  territory. 

We  have  more  than  80,000  members  of  our  church.  We  have  about 
ninety  claimants  on  this  fund,  an  average  of  $155.50  for  each  one.  Such 
provision  for  these  embarasses  the  entire  membership  of  the  Conference. 
No  collection  is  nearer  the  hearts  of  the  people ;  no  collection  is  easier 
raised. 

We  respectfully  ask  our  pastors  and  presiding  elders  to  use  April  or 
May  to  bring  especially  this  most  worthy  cause  to  their  congregations. 

We  have  "Mother's  Day"  that  we  observe ;  why  not  have  a  "Father's 
Day,"  and  make  it  a  great  day  for  these   fathers  in  Israel? 

No  one  who  has  given  a  life  to  the  Church  should  be  neglected  in 
the  daily  ministration. 

Resolved,  That  we  ask  the  Joint  Board  of  Finance  to  increase  the  as- 
sessment at  least  100%,  and  make  special  effort  during  April  or  May  to 
help  these  faithful  ones  who  have  labored  so  well.  We  as  a  Conference 
have  entered  into  their  labors. 

E.  F.  Kahle.

stitute for  the  words  'holy  Catholic  Church'  the  words  'Christ's  holy

nection contrary  to  the  law  and  usages  of  our  Church ; 

Resolved,  That  the  Conference  does  hereby  rescind  this  former  action. 
By  this  action  we  do  not  reflect  on  Bro.  Clark,  whose  conduct  among  us 
as  a  man  and  minister  has  been  above  reproach. 

J.  W.  Perry.

len J.  Thomas,  T.  L.  Bryson,  and  Floyd  Bunyan  Shelton.

item  3  be  stricken  out.  Eugene  Blake  moved  that  the  amend- 
ment be  laid  on  the  table.  The  motion  was  lost  by  a  vote  of  67

prevailed. 

The  resolutions  were  then  adopted  as  follows :

of  American  Methodism  is  still   feasible  and  desirable.

gressive  efforts   to   reach   equitable   agreement.

minimum  of  ten  young  ministers  each  year.

(a)  to  increase  the  salaries  of  preachers,  and  (b)  to  take  steps  to  have 
very  materially  increased  the  awards  to  our  superannuates.

CONFERENCE  REPORTS. 


BOARD  OF  FINANCE. 

Your  board  has  unanimously  decided  that,  beginning  with  the  Confer- 
ence year  1920-21,  it  will  issue  the  checks  to  the  claimants  quarterly  in- 
stead of  annually  as  in  the  past. 

Brother  I.  G.  Campbell,  of  the  Publishing  House,  appeared  before 
the  board  representing  the  Methodist  Benevolent  Association.  Having 
examined  the  cost  of  their  insurance  and  being  fully  guaranteed  as  to 
the  stability  of  the  instiution,  we  most  heartily  recommend  it  to  our 
brethren.  Giving  our  support  to  the  Associaton  we  materially  help  the 
Conference  claimants  of  the  entire  church. 

The  following  is  a  list  of  the  Holston  claimants  and  the  appropriations

BOARD  OF  FINANCE. 

The  several  boards  have  duly  submitted  to  your  Commission  on  Finance 
their  askings  for  the  prosecution  of  the  work  committed  to  them.  The 
sum  requested  aggregates  more  than  $18,000.  Your  commission  does  not 
doubt  for  a  moment  that  this  amount  is  needed,  and  under  normal  condi- 
tions should  be  granted.  In  view,  however,  of  the  large  increase  in  the 
assessments  for  benevolences  last  year  and  the  outstanding  obligations 
incident  to  the  recent  Centenary  campaign,  it  does  not  seem  wise  to  take 
affirmative  action  in  this  important  matter.  Your  commission  has  made  an 
exception  in  the  case  of  the  Conference  claimants.  The  report  made  by 
the  Board  of  Finance  shows  that  the  funds  in  their  hands  are  about 
$3,000.00  less  than  the  amount  received  last  year.  We  have  added  this 
amount  to  the  assessment  for  Conference  claimants.  The  total  amounts 
assessed,  therefore,  are:  General  assessment,  $59,840.00;  Conference  as- 
sessment, $59,200.00. 

The  ratio  by  which  funds  sent  into  the  Conference  treasurer  are  to  be 
divided  between  the  two  is : 

General  assessment,  .5034  per  cent. 
Conference  assessment,  .4966  per  cent. 

The  Discipline  directs  that  your  commission  shall  determine  what  per- 
centage of  the  total  sum  assessed  shall  be  allotted  to  each  of  the  inter- 
ests represented.    The  percentage  is  as  follows : 

Conference  missions,  .3041  per  cent. 
Conference  claimants,  .2873  per  cent. 
Conference  education,  .2703  per  cent. 
Sunday  Schools,  .0507  per  cent. 
Superannuate  Endowment  Fund,  .0334  per  cent. 
Holston  History,  .0204  per  cent. 
Orphanage,  0169  per  cent. 
Epworth  Leagues,  .0169  per  cent. 

The  assessments  are  apportioned  to  the  several  districts  as  follows : 

General.  Conference.  Total. 

Abingdon    $6,219.00  $6,153.00  $12,372.00

BOARD  OF  CHRISTIAN  LITERATURE. 

First,  that  every  pastor  make  every  possible  effort  to  increase  the  cir- 
culation of  our  own  Conference  organ,  the  Midland  Methodist.  The  new 
arrangement  with  our  organ,  upon  which  we  are  now  entering,  provides 
for  a  more  complete  editorial  management,  the  editor  giving  his  entire  time 
to  the  work;  it  also  provides  that  all  objectionable  advertising  matter  will 
hereafter  be  excluded.  After  a  circulation  of  12,500  shall  have  been 
reached,  30  cents  out  of  every  subscription  will  go  to  our  Holston  Con- 
ference claimants.  The  Midland  in  indispensable  both  to  our  pastors  and 
people. 

Second,  that  a  committee  composed  of  the  publisher,  the  editor,  one 
presiding  elder,  one  pastor  and  one  layman  be  appointed  to  arrange  for 
and  conduct  a  Conference- wide  campaign  for  a  substantial  increase  of 
the  Midland. 

Third,  that  the  circulation  of  the  general  organ,  the  Christian  Ad- 
vocate, which,  in  our  judgment,  has  no  superior  among  church  papers  in 
America;  of  the  Missionary  Voice,  the  organ  of  the  Centenary  movement, 
and  a  superior  monthly  review  of  our  missionary  work  around  the  world ; 
of  the  Methodist  Quarterly  Review,  which  is  indispensable,  especially 
to  our  preachers ;  and  of  our  Sunday  School  literature,  including  the 
Church  School,  which  has  never  before  reached  such  a  high  standard  of 
excellence,  be  increased  in  every  possible  way.  If  our  people  are  to  be 
informed,  and  therfore  deeply  interested  in  all  our  church  activity,  they 
must  be  a  reading  people. 

Third,  that  we  commend  to  our  people  the  advantages  of  patronizing 
our  own  publishing  houses  at  Nashville  and  Richmond  for  all  book  sup- 
plies. French  WamplER,  Secretary.

BOARD  OF  CHURCH  EXTENSION. 

We  are  pleased  to  find  a  growing  interest  in  church  extension  activities, 
especially  in  regard  to  the  work  of  the  general  board,  the  total  income 
of  which  for  the  year  closing  March  31,  1919,  was  $864,526.85,  while  that 
of  the  preceding  year  was  $720,030.00.  During  the  past  year  quite  a  num- 
ber of  new  buildings  have  been  completed,  and  several  are  now  being 
built.  There  were  applications  before  the  Conferenc  board  for  aid  to 
the  amount  of  $11,000,  while  the  board  had  at  its  disposal  only  $5,500.  We 
pray  that  some  means  may  be  provided  by  which  this  fund  may  be  in- 
creased to  meet  the  many  demands  now  being  made.  Donations  and  loans 
are  made  to  churches  and  parsonages  as  follows :

SUNDAY  SCHOOL  BOARD. 

During  the  first  three  or  four  months  of  the  year  the  majority  of  our 
Sunday  Schools  were  closed  by  order  of  public  health  boards. 

During  the  second  quarter  the  Centenary  absorbed  the  mind  and  time 
of  the  church.  As  a  result,  the  increase  of  membership  campaign  set  for 
January  failed,  and  Sunday  School  day  was  observed  in  fewer  schools 
than  had  been  the  case  for  many  years.  However,  during  the  last  months 
of  the  year  the  normal  program  of  Sunday  School  work  was  resumed, 
and  progress  was  very  gratifying.

Total  amount  of  pledges  sent  in $90,809.60 

We  commend  the  work  of  our  field  secretary,  Rev.  S.  S.  Boyer,  and  re- 
spectfully ask  Bishop  Denny  for  his  reappointment  to  this  work. 

We  designate  the  months  of  February,  March  and  April  for  a  simul- 
taneous membership  campaign,  this  campaign  to  head  up  in  Sunday  School 
day.  We  respectfully  request  presiding  elders  to  give  snecial  emphasis  to 
this  campaign,  and  to  this  day,  during  their  second  round.  Since  the  board 
will  not  be  able  to  finance  its  work,  unless  it  receives  larger  income  from 
Sunday  school  day  than  that  received  this  year,  we  ask  them  to  call  atten- 
tion to  this  fact.  We  offer  to  the  district  showing  the  largest  per  cent,  of 
gain  in  enrollment  a  suitable  banner. 

We  endorse  the  action  of  the  General  Board  in  setting  the  28th  day  of 
December  for  securing  Centenary  pledges  in  those  schools  not  having  al- 
ready pledged  for  increased  amount  and  for  selecting  specials  for  the  ensu- 
ing year.  The  importance  of  this  can  be  seen  in  the  fact  that  the  $90,809.60 
pledged  came  from  three  hundred  and  thirty-six  of  our  eight  hundred  and 
six  schools. 

We  endorse  the  plan  for  holding  at  Emory  and  Henry  College,  in  the 
month  of  June,  annually,  a  summer  institute  for  preachers  and  Christian 
workers,  and  we  appoint  Rev.  S.  S.  Boyer  as  a  member  of  the  board 
of  managers. 

We  believe  that  the  third  rank  standard  is  the  least  degree  of  organ- 
ization with  which  a  school  can  do  efficient  work,  and  we  urge  our  Sun- 
day School  superintendents  to  strive  for  that  rank  during  the  year,  and 
our  presiding  elders  and  district  organization  to  strive  for  third  rank  dis- 
trict standard. 

We  approve  the  call  of  our  General  Board  for  a  special  Christmas 
offering  for  the  near  east  relief  fund,  and  urge  all  our  Sunday  School 


4G  HOLSTON  ANNUAL 

people  to   contribute  liberally,   and   to   so   mark  their  contributions  that 
our  Conference  may  receive  credit  for  same. 

We  believe  that  the  greatest  subject  before  us  for  the  year  is  that  of 
evangelism  in  the  Sunday  School,  and  we  pldge  our  best  effort  in  bringing 
to  a  personal  experience  of  salvation  all  those  under  our  instructions.

EPWORTH  LEAGUE  BOARD. 

There  is  no  more  important  work  in  our  church  in  the  present  day 
than  the  work  among  our  young  people.  There  is  not  a  man  among  us 
who  does  not  confess  that  something  must  be  done  to  win  the  young  life 
of  the  church  and  community  for  the  kingdom  of  God  and  the  work  in 
His  vineyard.    The  world  cry  of  today  is  for  trained  workers. 

Does  the  Epworth  League  of  our  great  church  propose  a  policy  that 
will  meet  the  needs  and  demands  of  the  young  life  of  the  church  and 
community  to  equip  them  for  the  higher  and  better  service?  Do  we  value 
the  League  and  it's  work  as  we  do  the  Sunday  School  or  the  Missionary 
Society,  or  the  Board  of  Missions,  or  Church  Extension?  Does  this  work 
among  our  young  people  receive  the  same  recognition  as  do  the  above 
causes?  If  this  work  has  value,  and  it  has,  let  us,  as  a  great  Confer- 
ence, get  into  the  movement  and  if  the  League  has  mistakes  to  its  policy, 
let  us  correct  these  and  make  this  work  measure  up  to  all  the  other  in- 
terests of  the  church,  as  out  of  the  League  will  come  many  of  the 
preachers,  stewards,  missionaries  and  other  leaders  for  the  future  church. 

The  time  is  here  when  we  need  more  trained  workers  than  at  any  time 
in  the  church's  history,  and  now  that  we  have  recognized  the  world's 
need  and  have  launched  the  great  Centenary  enterprise,  it  becomes  more 
necessary  for  us  to  mobilize  the  forces  which  are  at  hand  in  the  young 
life  of  the  church. 

We  as  the  Conference  board  endorse  the  policy  of  the  Epworth  League 
Conference  and  assure  them  of  our  hearty  support  and  co-operation  in 
their  efforts  to  carry  out  said  policy  within  the  bounds  of  the  Conference. 
We  are  glad  to  note  the  progress  in  the  League  work  during  the  past 
year. 


EOLSTON  ANNUAL  47 

The  Conference  held  in  Knoxville  was  a  great  success,  and  was  a 
source  of  inspiration  to  all  who  attended.  We  ask  that  the  preachers 
secure  from  their  several  charges  representatives  who  will  attend  these 
conferences  in  the  future.  We  do  not  deem  it  expedient  at  this  time 
to  put  a  traveling  secretary  in  the  field,  but  propose  to  do  the  work  through 
the  district  organization,  paying  the  necessary  expenses  incurred  out  of 
the  funds  appropriated  by  the  Conference  to  the  League  board  for  the 
League  work  in  the  Conference,  the  money  for  said  expenses  to  be  ap- 
portioned to  the  several  districts  by  the  Conference  board. 

The  board  asks  the  Conference  to  confirm  the  following  ministers  se- 
lected to  fill  vacancies  in  the  board : 

W.  M.  Bunts  to  take  the  place  of  Carroll  Varner,  G.  K.  Patty  to  take 
the  place  of  Charles  T.  Vaughn,  and  Rev.  C,  L.  Cox  to  take  the  place 
of  Elbert  Fisher.  H.  B.  Vaught,  Chairman. 

W.  P.  Eastwood,  Secretary. 


DISTRICT  CONFERENCE  RECORDS. 

We  congratulate  the  brethren  for  their  diligence  in  bringing  their 
records  to  the  seat  of  the  Conference — all  of  the  records  being  present. 

We  desire  to  make  special  reference  to  the  Abingdon  district  record 
in  two  particulars:  first,  the  book  was  without  one  trace  of  soil  either 
upon  cover  or  leaf;  second,  the  minutes  are  entered  in  excellent  form 
and  are  beautifully  written. 

The  Big  Stone  Gap  record  is  very  nicely  kept,  and  the  portion  of  the 
minutes  which  are  entered  is  in  good  form.  The  supolements  have  not 
been  entered.     A  note  in  the  book  says,  "I  will  enter  supplements  soon." 

The  Bluefield  record  is  well  written,  and  is  in  good  condition  except 
that  printed  memorials  and  letters  are  posted  in  the  book. 

The  Cleveland  record  is  well  written.  One  report  was  signed  "Com- 
mittee," but  no  names  were  signed.  The  minutes  were  not  signed  by  the 
chairman. 

The  Chattanooga  record  is  well  kept,  free  from  soil,  and  the  min- 
utes are  entered  in  good  form ;  the  only  criticism  offered  is  that  there  are 
too  many  abbreviations. 

The  Knoxville  record  is  well  kept,  the  minutes  are  entered  in  good 
form  and  plainly  written. 

The   Morristown   record  is  in  good  condition. 

The  Radford  record  has  no  roll  of  members,  and  is  not  signed  by 
the  chairman. 

The  Tazewell  record  is  in  good  condition,  except  that  there  is  no 
roll  of  members. 

The  Wytheville  record  is  well  written,  but  the  roll  of  members  is  not 
in  good  form.  The  supplements  are  not  lettered,  but  are  in  the  body  of 
the  minutes. 

R.  G.  Reynolds,  Chairman. 

H.  S.  Hutsele,  Secretary.

BOARD  OF  MISSIONS. 
Report  No.  1. 

We  present  herewith  a  statement  of  policy  and  the  by-laws  by  which 
the  Board  of  Missions  desires  to  be  governed  in  the  discharge  of  its 


48  HOLSTON  ANNUAL 

duties,  in  the  execution  of  its  trust  in  regard  to  the  mission  charges  of 
the  Conference. 

Whereas,  this  Board  is  charged  with  the  responsibility  of  determining 
what  appropriations  shall  be  made  to  the  mission  charges  of  the  Con- 
ference— a  responsibility  which  cannot,  under  our  disciplinary  law,  be 
shared  even  with  the  Conference  itself — and, 

Whereas,  its  plain  duty  is  to  bring  those  charges  to  a  basis  of  self- 
support  as  speedily  as  possible,  not  only  for  the  sake  of  the  charges  them- 
selves, but  also  for  the  sake  of  releasing  money  for  the  development  of 
new   and  promising  fields ;   therefore,  be  it 

Resolved,  first,  That  the  policy  of  the  Board  in  supplementing  the 
salaries  of  certain  of  our  charges  looks  only  toward  temporary  relief  in 
getting  new  charges  on  their  feet.  The  expectation  of  the  Board  being 
that  these  charges  will  make  every  effort  to  attain  independency  at  the 
earliest  possible  moment. 

Resolved,  second,  That  our  mission  charges  be  divided  into  three 
classes :  class  "A,"  class  "B,"  and  class  "C".  Class  "A"  shall  comprise 
all  charges  which  shall  co-operate  with  the  Board  for  the  purpose  of 
their  becoming  self-supporting,  and  shall  have  their  appropriations  re- 
duced thirty-three  and  one-third  per  cent  each  year.  Class  "B"  shall  com- 
prise all  charges  co-operating  with  the  Board  for  the  purpose  of  becom- 
ing thus  self-supporting,  and  shall  have  their  appropriations  reduced 
twenty  per  cent  each  year.  The  Board  makes  the  wholesome  recom- 
mendation that  their  congregations  increase  the  salaries  to  a  sum  equal, 
at  least,  to  the  amount  the  pastor  received  with  the  appropriation  before 
its  reduction;  that  at  the  expiration  of  three  and  five  years,  respectively, 
the  charges  will  be  independent,  and  the  congregations  will  have  formed 
the  habit  of  making  a  small  increase  on  the  salary  each  year,  thus  hav- 
ing laid  the  foundation  for  continued  progress. 

It  is  understood,  however,  that  though  the  foregoing  is  a  general  rule, 
the  Board,  after  conferring  with  the  Presiding  Elder,  reserves  the  right 
to  remove  all  the  appropriation,  or  any  part  thereof,  from  any  mission 
charge,  whenever,  in  its  judgment,  it  is  wise  to  do  so. 

Nothing  is  further  from  the  mind  of  the  Board  than  any  reduction 
in  the  support  of  the  preachers  in  charge  of  these  missions,  which  in 
most  cases  is  pitifully  small.  But  the  remedy  is  not  in  pauperizing  with 
missionary  money  charges  able  themselves  to  give  their  pastors  a  com- 
fortable support.  Such  a  policy  puts  a  premium  upon  non-development 
and   makes  missionary  money   hurtful   rather  than   helpful. 

Class  "C"  shall  comprise  those  charges  in  purely  missionary  territory, 
which  offer  no  hope  of  immediate  development,  and  to  which  the  fore- 
going rule  shall  not  be  applied.  It  is  hoped  by  the  Board  that  a  change 
of  conditions  may  result  in  many  of  these  charges  being  speedily  trans- 
ferred to  class  "A,"  or  class  "B,"  that  the  number  of  charges  in  class 
"C"   may  be  kept  at   a  minimum. 

Resolved,  third,  That  the  every-member  canvass,  a  disciplinary  re- 
quirement, be  a  condition  for  the  Board's  giving  aid ;  and,  furthermore, 
that  the  Board  in  granting  appropriations  will  take  into  consideration  the 
amount  that  has  been  raised  on  the  Conference  assessments. 

Resolved,  fourth,  That  the  presiding  Bishop  of  our  Annual  Conference 
be  requested  to  add  the  word  "Mission"  to  the  rmmes  of  all  charges  re- 
ceiving appropriations  from  this  Board,  and  that  these  charges  be  pub- 
lished as  mission  charges  in  the  appointments,  and  that  a  list  of  all  class 
"A"  missions  be  furnished  the  presiding  Bishop  with  the  request  that  he 
do  the  best  possible  in  appointing  men  who  will  rapidly  bring  them  to 
self-support. 

Resolved,  fifth,  That  every  charge  attaining  unto  a  self-supporting 
basis  be  put  upon  a  special  roll  of  honor  and  published  with  our  reports 
in  the  Conference  minutes.

Resolved,  sixth,  That  we  request  our  preachers  to  forward  all  funds 
for  our  Conference  missions  to  the  Treasurer  of  this  Board  as  soon  as 
they  are  in  hand,  that  the  Board  may  make  quarterly  payments  to  the 
men  on  mission  charges,  twenty-five  per  cent  of  the  allowance  on  the 
completion  of  each  of  the  first  three  quarters  of  the  Conference  year,  re- 
serving twenty-five  per  cent  for  the  last  quarter  for  final  adjustment. 

Resolved,  seventh,  That  all  appropriations  made  by  this  Board  are  con- 
ditioned upon  the  charges  paying  one  hundred  per  cent  of  the  preacher's 
salary  agreed. 

Resolved,  eighth,  That  the  Board  shall  be  further  governed  by  the 
following  by-laws : 

1.  The  officers  of  the  Conference  Board  of  Missions  shall  be  a  Presi- 
dent, Vice-President,  Secretary,  Assistant  Secretary,  and  Treasurer,  to 
be  elected  by  ballot  quadrennially,  who  shall  perform  the  duties  usually 
attaching  to  these  offices. 

2.  The  officers  of  the  Board  shall  constitute  the  Executive  Committee, 
which  shall  be  charged  with  the  duty  of  enforcing  all  rules  and  regula- 
tions of  the  Board,  and  of  acting  for  the  Board  in  all  matters  of  admin- 
istration in  the  interim  of  the  Board  meetings.  They  shall  make  a  full 
report  of  their  acts  to  the  Board  for  its  approval. 

3.  A  committee  on  estimates  shall  be  appointed  by  the  President  of 
the  Board,  to  whom  shall  be  referred  all  requests  for  aid.  They  shall 
make  a  careful  estimate  of  all  the  amounts  to  be  appropriated,  and  of 
the  sum  needed  by  the  Board  for  its  work,  and  report  to  the  Board  for 
final  action ;  provided,  that  the  Board  may,  at  its  pleasure,  consider  any 
or  all  of  these  items  as  a  committee  of  the  whole. 

4.  The  Board  shall  hold  its  Annual  Meeting  during  the  session  of 
the  Annual  Conference,  at  which  time  all  appropriations  for  aid  to  pas- 
toral charges  shall  be  made.  These  appropriations  shall  not  in  any  year 
exceed  ninety  per  cent  of  the  income  for  the  year  ended,  until  the 
reserve  shall  reach  $8,000. 

A  Mid-year  Meeting  shall  be  held  annually,  in  the  month  of  February, 
with  the  Presiding  Elders,  the  time  and  place  to  be  fixed  by  the  Execu- 
tive Committee,  who  shall,  in  co-operation  with  a  Presiding  Elder,  ap- 
pointed by  the  Presiding  Elders,  prepare  a  program  for  the  meeting. 
The  purpose  of  this  meeting  shall  be  to  make  any  necessary  re-adjust- 
ments in  the  appropriations,  provided  the  amount  appropriated  at  the 
Annual  Meeting  is  not  exceeded ;  to  discuss  work,  and  advise  ways  and 
means  for  making  it  effective.  No  change  in  the  interim  of  meetings 
shall  be  made  by  any  presiding  elder  or  presiding  elders  without  the  sanc- 
tion of  the  Executive  Committee  of  the  Board,  and  such  presiding  elder 
or  presiding  eld~rs  musr  then  make  such  change  satisfactory  with  any 
preacher  who  would  be  >  loser  by  such  change.  All  new  enterprises  to 
be  projected,  anu  new  missions  to  be  established,  should  be  presented  at 
this  meeting. 

5.  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  Presiding  Elder  and 
Quarterly  Conference  of  charges  becoming  or  continuing  missions. 

6.  Any  District,  Charge,  Church,  Sunday  School,  Epworth  League, 
cr  person,  may  assume,  in  whole  or  in  part,  the  support  of  a  missionary 
or  mission  established  by  this  Board.  Their  contributions  shall  be  ap- 
plied to  the  support  of  such  object,  provided  that  the  funds  be  sent  to 
the  Treasurer  of  the  Board ;  and  provided,  further,  that  collections  upon 
regular  assessments  may  not  be  so  directed. 


50  HOLSTON  ANNUAL 

7.  The  Secretary  of  the  Board  shall  make  a  payroll  for  the  salaries 
of  the  missionaries  in  its  employ,  quarterly,  within  ten  days  after  the 
first  of  January,  April,  July,  and  October,  provided  that  no  check  shall 
be  mailed  or  delivered  to  any  missionary  until  he  has  sent  a  report  of 
his  work  for  the  quarter  to  the  Assistant  Secretary,  which  report  is  to 
be  made  on  blanks  furnished  by  the  Board. 

8.  The  Treasurer  shall  pay  out  funds  for  Conference  Missions  only 
upon  an  order  in  writing  from  the  Secretary,  and  signed  by  him,  ex- 
cept for  his  expenses  as  Treasurer. 

9.  Whenever  one  pastor  shall  be  appointed  to  serve  two  charges  to 
which  appropriations  have  been  made,  he  shall  receive  only  the  amount 
appropriated  to  the  charge  to  receive  the  larger  sum ;  and  whenever  a 
pastor  is  appointed  to  a  charge  receiving  an  appropriation  from  this  Board, 
when  such  pastor  has  already  received  aid  from  one  of  the  Conference 
Boards,  he  shall  receive  only  the  amount  by  which  the  appropriation 
of  this  Board  exceeds  the  amount  he  has  already  received. 

10.  The  Board  shall  appropriate  out  of  its  funds  to  pay  the  ex- 
penses of  the  Mid-year  Meeting,  of  the  Executive  Committee,  and  of  the 
officers  of  the  Board  in  the  discharge  of  their  duties  as  officers  of  the 
Board. 

Resolved,  ninth,  That  while  we  recognize  the  fact  that  the  Board  is 
responsible  for  this  policy,  we  earnestly  crave  the  moral  support  and  co- 
operation of  the  Conference  to  assist  us  in  its  application,  which  we 
believe  will  bring  large  returns  in  the  building  up  of  the  Kingdom  of 
God  within  the  bounds  of  our  Conference.

Report  No.  2. 

With  devout  gratitude  to  God  for  His  blessings,  your  Board  of  Mis- 
sions brings  you  a  report  of  a  prosperous  year,  in  the  feeling  that  He  is 
guiding  us  into  more  progressive  policies,  as  well  as  in  that  we  are  en- 
abled through  the  Centenary  offerings  to  make  larger  appropriations  than 
ever  before  in  our  history.     Of  these  we  will  speak  further  in  this  report. 

First,  however,  we  desire  to  call  attention  to  the  fact,  that,  through  the 
new  method  of  remitting  Benevolent  Collections  and  the  pro-rating  of 
the  same,  and  through  a  misunderstanding  of  some  people,  in  spite  of 
all  our  efforts  to  avoid  that  misunderstanding,  and  in  which  they  have 
believed  that  pledges  made  to  the  Centenary  funds  covered  their  con- 
tributions for  regular  Benevolent  Claims,  our  regular  income  has  been 
somewhat  reduced.  On  assessments  we  have  received  this  year  $16,903 
as  against  $17,497  received  from  the  same  source  last  year.  We  there- 
fore urge,  as  we  have  always  done  even  when  it  was  of  less  personal 
interest  to  our  Board,  that  our  preachers  and  people  put  forth  every 
legitimate  effort  to  collect  all  assessments  in  full,  and  that  they  remit 
promptly  to  the  Conference  General  Treasurer.  And  we  hope,  further, 
that  it  may  be  borne  in  mind  that  the  Conference  Board  of  Missions 
gets  a  ten  ner  cent  return  only  from  the  pledges  made  in  the  Centenary 
drive,  when  those  pledges  are  paid ;  and  that  it  does  not  receive  any 
return  from  any  of  the  credits  that  are  counted  in  addition  to  these  pledges 
to  make  up  the  total  of  Centenary  offerings,  saving  the  assessment  for 
Conference  Missions,  which  remains  in  its  hands  for  its  administration. 
We  trust,  therefore,  that  all  pledges  will  be  paid  in  full  and  promptly; 
and,  further,  that  the  slogan  of  the  collection  program  may  become  an 
accomplished  fact  —  "No  shrinkage,  but  an  increase."  Every  cent  is 
needed. 


HOLSTON  ANNUAL  51 

For  comparison  as  between  this  year  and  last,  as  to  the  amount  paid 
on  connectional  Home  Missions  and  on  Foreign  Missions,  we  refer  you 
to  the  report  of  the  General  Treasurer,  or  to  the  statistical  tables.  This 
information  has  not  yet  been  furnished  us. 

The  great,  outstanding,  missionary  feature  of  the  year  has  been  the 
success  of  the  Centenary  Movement,  particularly  in  the  great  over-sub- 
scription in  the  financial  drive.  Of  perhaps  more  importance  in  perma- 
nent results,  has  been  the  success  in  the  enrollment  of  tithers  and  inter- 
cessors, and  in  the  discovery  of  the  laymen  in  their  use  as  "Three- 
Minute-Men."  It  is  a  part  of  the  program  of  conservation  to  continue 
the  pressing  of  these  matters  until  far  greater  results  have  been  at- 
tained, and  until  these  matters  have  become  fixed  habits  and  principles 
in  the  lives  of  our  people,  and  until  these  men  and  women  shall  be  al- 
ways a  factor  to  be  relied  upon  to  the  utmost,  in  the  building  of  God's 
Kingdom  among  men.  And  not  the  least  part  of  the  Centenary  program 
was  the  exhibition,  "The  World  in  Columbus,"  which  was  attended  by 
millions,  among  whom  were  many  Holston  preachers  and  laymen. 

But  in  this  program  of  conservation,  to  which  reference  has  been 
made,  the  most  important  items  remain  to  be  mentioned.  With  all  our 
rejoicing  over  finances,  we  are  deeply  concerned  about  the  small  num- 
ber of  applicants  to  our  Conference,  for  membership  in  it,  as  traveling 
preachers.  Our  prayers  must  include  petitions  for  the  calling  of  min- 
isters into  the  service  of  the  Master.  "Pray  ye  therefore  the  Lord  of 
the  harvest."  We  must  be  alert  to  discover  those  who  seem  called  of 
God  to  preach  the  glorious  gospel  of  Christ.  Who  does  not  desire  a 
great  Conference-wide,  church-wide,  nation-wide,  world-wide  revival! 
Everywhere  the  need  is  recognized.  Many  hearts  now  go  out  in  cease- 
less prayer  to  God  for  its  coming.  That  number  must  be  increased. 
Meanwhile,  the  very  atmosphere  is  vibrant  with  expectancy.  Grant  the 
desires  of  our  hearts,  O  God !  Zion  must  travail,  and  sons  and  daugh- 
ters shall  be  born  into  the  kingdom  of  our  Lord. 

In  order  to  give  due  recognition  to  the  various  churches,  and  in 
order  to  stimulate  as  much  as  possible  the  prompt  payment  of  Centenary 
pledges,  the  individual  churches  of  the  Conference  are  to  be  classified 
according  to  the  amount  of  their  subscription.  And  in  honor  roll,  with 
the  name  of  the  church  in  each  class  making  the  largest  payment  on  its 
total  subscription  enrolled  upon  this  honor  roll,  will  be  published  from 
time  to  time,  as  the  plan  may  be  worked  out  in  further  detail  by  the 
Conference  Missionary  Secretary  and  the  Conference  Centenary  Cabinet. 

The  Board  recommends  to  the  Bishop  for  appointment  as  Conference 
Evangelists,  as  follows:  Bascom  Waters,  J.  J.  Clark,  and  E.  L.  Adding- 
ton.  F.  M.  Reynolds  is  recommended  for  appointment  as  District  Evan- 
gelist in  the  Knoxville  District.  J.  M.  Carter  is  recommended  for  ap- 
pointment as   Conference   Missionary  Secretary. 

The  Board  has  nominated  J.  E.  Lowry  for  the  Presidency  of  Hiwassee 
College. 

For  our  work  for  the  ensuing  year  we  ask  an  assessment  of  $18,000. 

We  have  made  the  following  special  appropriations :  Salary  of  the 
Conference  Missionary  Secretary,  $3,000,  and  for  his  expenses  $1,500,  one- 
third  of  which  is  paid  from  Conference  funds,  and  two-thirds  by  the 
Connectional  Board  of  Missions;  for  the  salary  of  the  President  of  Hi- 
wassee College  $1,500;  for  the  Chaplain  of  Emory  and  Henry  College 
$1,000,  who  shall  also  be  the  manager  of  the  Young  Preachers'  Institute, 
and  for  the  expense  of  conducting  this  Institute  a  sum  not  to  exceed 
$500;  and  for  the  expenses  of  the  Board  $500.  It  is  expected  this  sum 
will  cover  the  expense  of  tha  Mid-year  Meeting,  which  is  to  be  held 
February  10-12,  1920,  at  Sweetwater,  Tenn.

heretofore  named  and  the  present  owners  of  Centenary  College,  this 
transfer,  and  are  requested  to  bring  it  about  as  quickly  as  possible.  This 
Commission  is  further  instructed  to  assist  the  Trustees  in  securing  a  new 
or  amended  charter  for  Centenary  College  conforming  to  the  disciplinary 
requirements  of  the  M.  E.  Church,  South,  as  regards  the  schools  of  the 
Church. 

T.  J.  Eskridge,  Chairman. 


Report  No.  2. 

Your  Board  of  Education  is  glad  to  report  that  all  the  schools  under 
our  care  are  making  satisfactory  progress.  Martha  Washington,  Cente- 
nary and  Hiwassee  Colleges  have  about  as  many  boarding  pupils  as 
they  can  well  care  for.  Emory  and  Henry  has  a  larger  enrollment  than 
last  year,  minus  the  S.  A.  T.  C.  addenda,  but  it  is  not  by  any  means 
as  large  as  it  should  be.  This  is  due  in  part  to  the  after-effects  of  the 
war,  but  is  more  largely  due  to  the  very  severe  competition  of  State  and 
other  institutions  which  are  able  to  offer  scholarships  covering  all  tuition 
charges.  In  this  respect  the  conditions  confronting  Emory  and  Henry 
are  very  serious  indeed.  Your  Board  expresses  the  hope  that  by  some 
means  scholarships  will  be  provided  for  all  students  entering  Emory  and 
Henry  College.  In  order  to  meet  the  present  situation  we  earnestly  urge 
our  preachers  to  do  their  utmost  in  presenting  the  claims  of  this  great 
institution  to  the  patronage  of  our  people. 

We  note  with  great  pleasure  the  increasing  prosperity  and  continued 
growth  of  Emory  University.  The  opportunity  is  now  before  us  to 
make  this  a  really  great  institution.  We  commend  it  both  to  the  patronage 
and  to  the  philanthropy  of  our  people.  In  this  connection  we  express 
our  commendation  of  the  work  done  by  Rev.  S.  B.  Vaught  as  Com- 
missioner of  Education  for  Emory  University,  and  we  recommend  his 
continuance  in  that  position,  as  requested  by  Bishop  Candler. 

Your  Board  regrets  that  there  has  been  a  continual  decline  in  the 
number  received  on  trial  into  the  Conference  of  our  Church  during  the 
last  eight  years,  as  recorded  in  the  report  of  the  Secretary  of  Ministerial 
Supply  and  Training.  This  is  indeed  a  most  serious  condition  and  we 
herewith  incorporate  his  suggestions  in  our  report,  believing  as  we  do 
that  they  afford  a  way  out  of  the  difficulty: 

1.  That  our  Lord's  method  of  supplying  our  pulpits  be  adopted — 
namely,  prayer  to  the  Lord  of  the  harvest  that  He  will  send  forth  labor- 
ers into  His  harvest. 

2.  That  every  Sunday  School  be  requested  to  properly  observe  Voca- 
tion Day. 

3.  That  every  pastor  be  urged,  in  accordance  with  the  law  of  our 
Church,  to  preach  at  least  one  sermon  a  year  in  every  pulpit  on  the  claims 
of  the  Christian  ministry,  and  that  this  be  followed  by  personal  work 
among  the  young  men  of  his  congregation. 

4.  That  our  preachers  be  requested  to  speak  on  the  subject  of  the 
ministry  to  the  pupils  of  the  schools  and  colleges  accessible  to  them. 


HOLSTON  ANNUAL  57 

5.  That  the  authorities  of  our  colleges  and  schools  give  cordial  wel- 
come and  assistance  to  the  Life  Service  campaign  conducted  this  ses-

58  HOLSTON  ANNUAL 


Report  No.  3. 


In  the  union  of  Emory  and  Henry  and  Martha  Washington  Colleges 
Dr.  S.  D.  Long  was  elected  Vice-President,  and  was  to  work  in  the 
field.  By  this  we  understand  it  has  been  made  his  duty  to  travel  through 
the  Conference  and  preach  to  our  people  on  the  subject  of  Christian 
Education,  to  talk  to  the  fathers  and  mothers  in  their  homes  on  the 
important  matter  of  the  right  education  of  their  children,  to  visit  High 
Schools  and  come  into  touch  with  as  many  students  as  possible.  As  may 
be  seen,  his  work  looks  to  the  bringing  of  our  colleges  nearer  to  our 
people  and  is  in  no  sense  a  financial  campaign.  We  unqualifiedly  com- 
mend him  and  his  work  to  our  preachers  and  laymen  and  ask  for  him 
the  heartiest  co-operation  in  all  his  plans. 

We  have  heard  with  great  pleasure  of  the  action  of  the  laymen  of 
our  Conference  in  providing  for  the  education  of  our  young  preachers. 
We  deem  this  a  very  great  work  and  a  distinct  step  forward,  and  most 
cordially  commend  these  laymen  for  this  far-sighted  policy.  In  the  dis- 
cussion of  our  educational  needs  your  Board  feels  that  the  Church  must 
do  more  than  it  has  done  for  the  higher  education  of  our  preachers'  chil- 
dren; then,  too,  there  is  a  large  number  of  other  boys  and  girls  who  have 
the  intellectual  and  spiritual  ambition  to  go  to  college  and  yet  have  not 
the  means  to  do  so.  We  can  aid  our  preachers  in  their  efforts  to  educate 
their  sons  and  daughters  and  also  help  other  fine  young  men  and  women 
by  securing  scholarships  from  those  of  our  people  who  have  the  means 
and  the  will  to  assist  in  this  form  of  Christian  work.  We  therefore  rec- 
ommend that  S.  D.  Long,  J.  R.  Brown,  W.  E.  Brock,  T.  S.  French  and 
J.  A.  Stone  be  appointed  a  committee  to  confer  with  the  presiding  elders 
of  the  Conference  looking  to  the  devising  of  a  plan  for  securing  these 
scholarships.  T.  J.  Eskridge,  Chairman.

HOLSTON  HISTORY. 

We,  your  Historical  Committee,  herewith  present  the  report  of  the 
Conference  Historian,  Dr.  R.  N.  Price,  and  recommend  that  he  be  con- 
tinued as  Conference  Historian,  and  that  the  Finance  Commission  be  in- 
structed to  apportion  the  sum  of  $1,500  for  his  salary. 

J.  W.  Perry,  Secretary.  J.  A.  Burrow,  President. 


HOLSTON  ANNUAL  59 

The  financial  status  of  the  History  for  the  year  is  as  follows : 

Collected   from   agents $220.81 

Still  due  from  agents 123.68 

Paid  the  Publishing   House 195.25 

Still  due  the  Publishing  House 582.75

Excess  in  favor  of  assets $252.18 

Of  the  $123.68  due  from  agents  at  least  one-half  is  worthless,  reduc- 
ing the  excess  of  assets  over  liabilities  to  $190.34. 

My  employment  during  the  year  has  been  selling  books,  collecting  ac- 
counts, writing  reminiscences,  contribution  of  articles  of  Anecdotes  of 
Preachers  to  Christian  Advocate,  a  contribution  of  Methodist  history 
to  a  forthcoming  History  of  Tazewell  County  from  the  pen  of  Mr.  W. 
C.  Pendleton,  etc. 

I  am,  as  you  know,  a  paralytic,  my  paralysis  having  been  brought  on  by 
excessive  labors  in  the  preparation  of  the  History,  and  I  am,  in  the  lan- 
guage of  the  Psalmist,  "feeble  and  sore  broken."  By  the  thoughtful- 
ness  and  magnanimity  of  the  Conference  I  have  been  saved  from  ab- 
solute want.  My  credit  is  good  in  the  town  where  I  live,  and  by  your 
help  I  hope  to  maintain  it,  and  go  down  into  my  grave  with  a  good 
name.  I  am  praying  and  trusting  and  awaiting  the  call  of  the  Master,  to 
which  I  shall  respond  cheerfully  and  hopefully. 

With  sincere  affection,  I  am,  R.  N.  Price.

SPIRITUAL  STATE  OF  THE  CHURCH. 

Our  Church  has  always  regarded  herself,  and  has  been  recognized  by 
other  Christian  bodies,  as  a  great  evangelistic  force.  Her  special  mission 
in  the  world  has  been,  is  now,  and  will  be  in  the  days  to  come,  to  win 
men  to  Christ,  realizing  that  every  blessing  of  civilization,  the  uplift  of 
society,  and  the  general  improvement  of  the  human  race  follows  in  the 
wake  of  Christianity. 

Some  think  they  see  evidences  of  the  fact  that  we  are  at  an  ebb 
tide  in  the  spiritual  life  of  our  beloved  Methodism.  Serious  men  every- 
where recognize  the  fact  that  there  is  an  imperative  need  of  a  great  re- 
vival of  religion  in  our  midst,  as  well  as  in  regions  beyond.  No  doubt 
the  world-war  distracted  the  minds  of  men  away  from  the  things  of  the 
•kingdom  of  God,  and  directed  their  thought  for  the  time  being  to  the 
things  of  the  kingdoms  of  this  world. 

The  rapid  increase  of  material  wealth,  and  high  tide  passion  of  world- 
liness  obtaining  everywhere  must  claim  the  thoughtful  and  prayerful  at- 
tention of  the  Church. 

Notwithstanding  all  of  this,  there  are  hopeful  signs  of  the  times  in  the 
fact  that  there  is,  both  among  ministers  and  laymen,  a  profound  convic- 
tion that  a  genuine  revival  of  religion  is  near  at  hand.  We  believe  that 
we  are  now  in  a  better  position  to  claim  the  promise  of  God  which  says, 
"Bring  ye  all  the  tithes  into  the  storehouse  and  prove  me  nerewith,  and  see 
if  I  will  not  pour  you  Out  a  blessing  that  there  is  not  room  to  contain." 
We  have  brought  a  part  of  the  tithes. 

Another  sign  of  the  coming  revival  is  the  fact  that  undoubtedly  more 
people  are  praying  for  a  revival  than  at  any  other  period  of  the  Church's 
history. 

Therefore,  be  it  Resolved,  That  we  humble  ourselves  before  God,  and 
with  all  faith  pray  for  a  greater  outpouring  of  the  Holy  Spirit  on  the 
Church  than  we  have  ever  seen  before. 

Resolved,  That  we  heartily  co-operate  with  the  Evangelistic  Commis' 
sion  of  the  Centenary  Movement,  in  as  far  as  possible,  in  organizing  our 
people,  as  they  suggest,  to  carry  out  the  evangelistic  program  during  the 
coming  year.

AMERICAN  BIBLE  SOCIETY. 

The  American  Bible  Society,  with  practically  all  barriers  out  of  the 
way,  has  before  her  an  enlarged  field  of  opportunity  to  do  the  work  she 
has  been  so  efficiently  doing  for  more  than  a  century,  though  your  com- 
mittee is  unable  to  make  any  definite  report  as  to  the  work  done  by  the 


64  HOLSTON  ANNUAL 

society  during  the  past  year,   since;  no  data  has  been   furnished  by  the 
society  to  your  board. 

We  would  respectfully  recommend  that  the  assessment  for  the  year 
1919-20  be  the  same  as  last  year — one  thousand  ($1,000)  dollars,  appor- 
tioned to  the  various  districts  of  the  Conference  as  last  year. 

J.  E.  Spring,  Secretary.  W"   S'   Lyons>  Chairman. 

The  Treasurer  of  the  Bible  Board  submits  the  following: 

Under  the  present  agreement  with  the  Chattanooga  Savings  Bank  the 
bulk  of  the  funds  is  handled  by  that  institution;  but  the  representative 
of  the  bank  reports  collections  amounting  to  $1,200.15,  and  the  forth- 
coming Holston  Annual  will  doubtless  contain  an  itemized  statement 
which,  it  is  hoped,  will  be  correct  and  satisfactory. 

At  a  recent  session  of  this  Conference  the  small  per  cent  which  had 
been  devoted  to  "Home  Use"  was  withdrawn ;  but  the  board  has  on  hand 
a  balance  of  $203.40,  which,  by  permission  of  the  Conference,  it  will  use 
among  the  poor  to  the  best  advantage.

SABBATH  OBSERVANCE. 

The  great  and  holy  Creator  instituted  the  Sabbath  when  at  the  end 
of  creation  He  rested  the  seventh  day.  He  hallowd  the  day,  not  because 
He  was  tired,  but  because  the  creature  man  would  tire  with  the  toil  of 
life,  and  need  of  rest. 

The  Ten  Commandments  are  a  re-enactment  in  improved  form  of  the 
laws  given  to  man  in  his  early  days,  perhaps  before  he  was  banished  from 
his  Edenic  home.  "Remember  the  Sabbath  day  to  keep  it  holy"  is  a  re- 
minder of  calamities  that  might  have  been  averted  as  well  as  a  holy  com- 
mand to  be  observed  in  the  generations  to  follow ;  and  here  we  find  the 
reason  for  the  prosperity  of  Israel  when  she  obeyed  and  her  adversity 
when  forgetful  of  this  sacred  command.  Of  course  the  Lord's  chosen 
people  were  frequently  guilty  of  many  sins,  but  it  should  not  be  over- 
looked that  Sabbath  neglect  and  desecration  are  more  frequently  men- 
tiond  than  any  other  sins,  for  which  there  can  be  but  one  logical  reason, 
and  that  is,  the  fourth  commandment  is  pre-eminently  basal  in  its  very 
constitution — when  a  man  violates  the  sanctity  of  this  day  he  violates 
the  whole  ten  commandments — he  sets  out  to  dethrone  God,  who  set 
the  example  of  hallowing  the  Sabbath ! 

Sabbath  neglect  is  a  peculiarly  diffusion  sin.  Like  the  leprosy  which 
preys  on  the  bodies  of  men,  the  beginning  appears  to  be  small  and  in- 
significant, but  before  the  end  the  victim  is  devoured  while  yet  alive,  his 
body  rotting  away  before  his  own  eyes.  In  the  days  of  the  kings  Judah 
thought  little  of  her  danger  in  departing  from  the  ordinances  of  the 
Lord,  yet  she  proceeded  on  that  death  tramp  till  met  by  a  brutal,  heathen 
monarch  who  transported  her  and  her  children  into  that  doleful  Chaldean 
captivity.  When  a  ragged  remnant  left  at  home  had  become  the  heirs 
of  confusion  and  want,  and  when  the  owls  and  bats  built  their  homes 
in  the  desolate  and  decaying  rubbish  of  the  sacred  temple,  then  the  most 
high  God  came  down  and  expressed  His  joy  at  the  quiet  rest  which  was 
enthroned  on  the  ruins  of  earth's  proudest  nation.  That  the  Hebrew 
found  it  difficult  to  sing  Zion's  song  in  a  strange  land  is  not  a  hard  prob- 
lem to  your  committee. 

We  call  your  thought  to  the  fact  that  the  observance  of  the  Sabbath 
appears  to  be  on  a  sad  decline.    Our  own  Church  is  on  board  the  boat  and 


HOLSTON  ANNUAL  65 

helping  to  rock  it.  In  many  parts  fun  and  frolic  characterize  the  day; 
one  hundred  in  First  Church  and  four  thousand  on  the  ball  ground.  And, 
what  is  not  much  better,  a  handful  to  hear  the  man  of  God  talk  of  death 
and  eternity  while  a  great  multitude  is  at  home  or  on  the  street  in  search 
of  questionable  amusement.  Traffic  and  labor  go  on  as  usual  and  many 
actually  forget  it  is  the  day  of  rest  and  worship. 

It  is  not  the  purpose  of  your  committee  to  burden  this  paper  with 
resolutions,  because  all  can  see  the  evil,  and  all  ought  to  agree  that  the 
Church  must  remove  it.  If  we  look  to  the  State  alone,  we  will  look  in 
vain;  but  if  the  Church,  through  her  ministers  and  laymen,  will  project 
a  scriptural  reformation,  deliverance  from  this  bondage  of  death  will 
come.  Time  may  be  a  prime  factor  in  the  solution,  but  fidelity  to  our 
vows  is  able  to  settle  the  issue. 

Brethren,  if  we  give  up  the  holy  Sabbath,  soon  the  world  and  Satan 
will  demand  all  we  have.  So  let  the  present  critical  hour  put  us  on  our 
guard. 

James  T.  Guy,  Chairman. 

James  I.  Cash,  Secretary.. 


SOCIAL  SERVICE. 

We  believe  that  the  Church  is  a  vital  factor  in  maintaining  the  purity 
and  well-being  of  the  social  life  of  the  nation.  As  a  nation  our  greatest 
difficulties  and  perils  arise  out  of  our  social  problems.  Therefore,  a 
clear  vision  of  the  social  service  the  Church  shall  render  is  important. 

There  is  grave  danger  that,  as  a  nation  of  people,  we  will  forget  God. 
One  of  the  clear  and  unmistakable  warnings  of  God's  revealed  word  is, 
"The  nations  that  forget  God  shall  be  turned  into  hell."  In  their  great 
desire  for  money  many  are  forgetting  God.  In  many  instances  the  meas- 
ure of  a  man's  success  is  his  ability  to  make  money.  Conscienceless 
profiteering  is  met  with  almost  everywhere.  Great  masses  of  our  people 
are  pleasure-mad.  The  popularity  of  the  dance,  the  picture-show,  and 
various  forms  of  amusement  reveal  the  great  love  of  many  for  pleasure. 
The  Bible  declares  "She  who  loves  pleasure  is  dead  whde  she  liveth." 
The  Church  can  render  no  greater  social  service  than  by  seeking  to  bring 
to  a  money-mad  and  pleasure-crazy  world  the  remembrance  of  God. 

In  many  places  there  is  a  neglect  to  attend  public  worship  on  the 
part  of  many.  Even  some  of  our  own  people  have  not  been  faithful  and 
loyal  to  the  vow  which  they  took  to  "attend  upon  the  ordinances  of  the 
Church."  We  commend  very  highly  the  work  of  some  of  the  laymen  in 
what  they  are  pleased  to  call  a  "fill-the-pew"  movement.  We  hope  this 
movement  will  spread  until  there  is  an  earnest  effort  everywhere  to 
reach  the  unchurched  and  unshepherded  multitudes  for  whom  Christ  died. 
To  seek  to  persuade  people  to  attend  public  worship  is  not  an  ostenta- 
tious form  of  service,  but  we  believe  it  is  a  form  of  most  excellent 
social   service. 

There  is  a  failure  on  the  part  of  many  to  comprehend  clearly  the 
great  moral  and  ethical  truths  which  lie  at  the  foundation  of  our  Chris- 
tian civilization.  In  the  great  contest  between  Labor  and  Capital  there 
is  often  a  failure  on  the  part  of  both  to  understand  those  ethical  and 
moral  principles  which  should  govern  the  actions  of  men  in  their  deal- 
ings with  each  other.  Capital  sometimes  uses  economic  pressure  as  a 
weapon  with  which  to  drive  an  unfair  bargain ;  while  on  the  other  hand 
some  of  the  leaders  of  Labor  advocate  the  repudiating  of  a  contract 
when  the  keeping  of  the  terms  of  the  contract  proves  detrimental  to 
Labor.     The   Church  can   render  a  great   social   service   by  emphasizing 


66  HOLSTON  ANNUAL 

regard  for  and  obedience  to  that  which  is  morally  right,  as  revealed  in 
the  teachings  of  Jesus  Christ.  The  truth  as  it  is  revealed  in  Jesus  Christ 
is  the  only  platform  which  contains  a  solution  for  all  our  industrial 
problems.  Whenever  the  Church  fails  to  take  notice  of  these  problems 
she  misses  a  great  opportunity  for  social  service.  Our  vexing  industrial 
problems  must  be  settled  in  the  spirit  of  Christ,  and  in  no  other  way 
can  they  really  be  settled. 

There  is  much  evidence  of  race  antagonism  and  hatred.  The  Church 
must  continually  emphasize  the  brotherhood  of  man  and  the  fatherhood 
of  God.  There  is  splendid  opportunity  for  social  service  by  emphasiz- 
ing the  teachings  of  Him  who  said:  "He  hath  made  of  one  blood  all 
nations  of  men  for  to  dwell  on  all  the  face  of  the  earth."  There  is  no 
place  in  Christianity  for  race  or  class  hatred,  or  for  any  form  of  hatred 
save  hatred  for  sin.  We  condemn  as  barbarous  and  uncivilized  the  mob 
spirit  which  sometimes  shows  itself  in  our  land.  We  deprecate  all  forms 
of  lawlessness,  and  would  warn  all  men  that  nothing  can  be  gained  but 
much  may  be  lost  by  setting  aside  law  and  order  and  introducing  law- 
lessness and  rule  by  mob. 

We  believe  that  as  pastors  we  have  been  remiss  in  urging  those  mak- 
ing a  profession  of  faith  in  Christ  to  join  the  Church.  A  great  many 
people  feel  that  it  makes  no  material  difference  whether  one  unites  with 
the  Church  or  not ;  that  Church  membership  counts  for  nothing  anyway. 
It  is  estimated  that  there  are  fifty  million  people  in  this  country  who  have 
more  or  less  interest  in  the  Christian  religion  who  are  not  members  of 
any  Church.  We  can  render  a  great  social  service  by  showing  the  people 
the  opportunity  which  Church  membership  affords.  As  pastors  we  need 
to  remember  that  every  converted  person  should  be  persuaded  to  unite 
with  the  Church. 

There  are  those  who  feel  that  the  Church  can  render  an  immense 
social  service  by  seeking  to  furnish  amusement  and  recreation  to  the 
masses.  There  are  two  good  reasons  why  the  Church  should  not  enter 
the  amusement  business,  or  become  a  recreational  center.  The  first  is,  it 
is  not  the  business  of  the  Church  to  amuse,  but  to  instruct.  The  second 
is,  the  masses  do  not  need  amusement — they  need  religious  knowledge. 
An  intelligent,  well-instructed,  wide-awake  Christian  can  find  sufficient 
recreation  and  amusement  without  the  Church  having  to  waste  her  time 
and  energy  in  that  direction.  Whatever  the  Church  may  be  able  to  do  to 
create  a  sentiment  for  forms  of  wholesome  recreation  and  innocent  amuse- 
ment is  well  and  good.  But  whenever  the  Church  gives  up  her  God- 
given  mission  to  save  and  takes  up  the  man-proposed  substitute  of  amus- 
ing, she  permits  herself  to  be  deprived  of  her  power.  Let  us  provide 
every  possible  facility  for  instructing  the  people  in  ethical,  moral  and 
spiritual  truths,  for  in  this  way  will  the  Church  find  her  greatest  op- 
portunity for  social  service. 

We  rejoice  beyond  measure  at  the  great  progress  of  the  prohibition 
movement.  We  respectfully  petition,  through  our  Secretary,  the  Presi- 
dent of  these  United  States  not  to  lift  the  ban  of  war-time  prohibition 
on  the  manufacture  and  sale  of  intoxicating  liquors  until  constitutional 
prohibition  goes  into  effect.  While  the  progress  we  have  made  in  the 
temperance  movement  is  great,  we  must  warn  our  people  from  assum- 
ing too  sanguine  an  attitude  toward  our  victory.  The  habit  of  drunken- 
ness can  hardly  be  broken  by  legislation ;  it  requires  the  power  of  God. 
We  must  also  remember  that  if  our  prohibition  laws  are  to  be  effective 
the  duty  of  their  enforcement  must  be  placed  in  the  hands  of  the  friends 
of  prohibition. 
Peace  Treaty  and  the  League  of  Nations  Covenant  at  the  earliest  possi- 

As  a  Conference  we  go  on  record  as  favoring  the  ratification  of  the 
ble  moment.  _,

MEMOIRS. 


ELIJAH   EMBREE  HOSS. 

"I  heard  a  voice  from  heaven  saying  unto  me,  Write,  Blessed  are 
the  dead  which  die  in  the  Lord  from  henceforth :  Yea,  saith  the  spirit, 
that  they  may  rest  from  their  labors ;  and  their  works  do  follow  them." 
— Rev.  xiv.,   13. 

Elijah  Embree  Hoss  was  born  April  14th,  1849,  in  a  country  home 
four  miles  south  of  Jonesboro,  Tenn.,  and  passed  to  his  reward  at  the 
home  of  his  son,  Dr.  H.  S.  Hoss,  in  Muskogee,  Okla.,  on  April  23rd, 
1919,  where  the  body  was  given  its  resting  place  beside  that  of  his  be- 
loved wife  who  preceded  him  less  than  one  year.  He  was  well  born. 
His  father,  Henry  Hoss,  had  in  his  veins  the  blood  of  Michael  Boone, 
an  ancestor  of  Daniel  Boone,  the  famous  Indian  fighter.  His  mother 
was  Anna  Maria  (Sevier)  Hoss,  a  granddaughter  of  General  John  Sevier, 
a  pioneer  of  the  "Watauga  Settlement,"  the  most  successful  Indian  fighter 
of  his  day,  the  only  Governor  of  the  State  of  Frankland ;  the  first,  and 
several  times,  Governor  of  Tennessee,  and  a  Representative  of  his  State 
in  Congress ;  a  hero,  and  probably  the  hero,  as  claimed  by  his  descend- 
ants, of  the  Battle  of  King's  Mountain,  which  turned  the  tide  of  the 
Revolution.  Thus,  it  appears,  the  Bishop  came  not  only  from  valorous, 
but  of  very  distinguished  stock;  and  all  who  knew  him  will  testify  that 
he  kept  up  the  traditions  of  his  forbears. 

His  father  removed  to  Jonesboro  while  Embree  was  yet  a  lad.  Henry 
Hoss  was  a  man  of  sterling  qualities,  and  was  a  most  useful  and  highly 
respected  citizen.  The  mother  was  finely  endowed  and  splendidly  cul- 
tured, and  was  a  deeply  pious  woman.  Embree  was  the  second  child 
of  eight.  He  was  a  precocious  youth,  and,  withal,  was  a  good  boy  who 
followed  closely  the  Godly  precepts  of  his  mother,  whom  he  almost 
adored  through  all  his  life.  His  reverence  for  his  parents  was  pro- 
found ;  and  it  is  not  believed  he  ever  caused  a  shadow  to  rest  upon  the 
brow  of  either  parent.  He  was  reared  in  the  rather  aristocratic  town, 
at  that  time,  of  Jonesboro,  and  had  the  advantages  of  good  society  and 
excellent  schools.  He  professed  religion  and  joined  the  Church  in  1859, 
under  the  pastorate  of  the  late  Grinsfield  Taylor.  He  was  licensed  a 
Methodist  preacher  in  1866.  In  1869  he  joined  the  Holston  Conference 
of  the  M.  E.  Church,  South,  was  ordained  a  Deacon  in  1870,  by  Bishop 
Kavanaugh,  and  an  Elder  by  Bishop  McTyeire,  in  1871.  In  1866  his 
father  sent  him  to  the  Ohio  Wesleyan  University,  but  during  the  second 
year  at  that  institution,  some  Negro  students  having  been  admitted,  the 
father,  though  an  intense  Unionist  during  the  war  between  the  states, 
promptly  recalled  his  son,  and  placed  him  in  Emory  and  Henry  College, 
Virginia,  where  he  graduated  in  1869. 

E.  E.  Hoss  was  married  to  Miss  Abbie  Belle  Clark  November  19, 
1872,  by  Rev.  Geo.  D.  French,  later  his  brother-in-law.  Of  this  union 
three  children  were  born :  E.  E.  Hoss,  Jr.,  of  Birmingham,  Ala. ;  Mrs. 
Mary  Headman,  of  Collinwood,  N.  J.,  and  Dr.  H.  S.  Hoss,  of  Muskogee, 
Okla. 

The  first  pastorate  to  which  the  young  preacher  was  assigned  was  to 
the  Jonesboro  and  Greeneville  Station,  in  1869.  Among  the  first  mem- 
bers received  by  him  into  the  church,  if,  indeed,  not  the  very  first,  were 
his   father  and  his  brother-in-law,  the  latej  Judge   S.  J.   Kirkpatrick,   of 


68  HOLSTON  ANNUAL 

Jonesboro,  Term.  In  1870  he  was  assigned  to  the  Knoxville  Station,  and 
in  1871  to  Church  Street,  Knoxville,  and  during  that  Conference  year, 
was  transferred  to  the  Pacific  Conference,  and  stationed  in  San  Fran- 
cisco. In  1874  he  was  elected  President  of  the  Pacific  Methodist  Col- 
lege. In  1875  he  was  transferred  back  to  the  Holston  Annual  Conference 
and  stationed  at  Asheville,  N.  C.  In  1876  he  was  made  a  professor  in 
Martha  Washington  College,  Abingdon,  Va. ;  in  1878  he  was  elected  its 
president,  and  served  until  made  professor  in,  and  vice-president  of,  Emory 
and  Henry  College,  Virginia,  in  1881,  and  served  to  the  close  of  the 
scholastic  year  in  June,  1885,  when  he  was  elected  president  of  that  in- 
stitution. Before  entering  upon  the  duties  of  president,  he  resigned  to 
accept  the  professorship  of  Church  History  in  Vanderbilt  University;  he 
remained  in  that  capacity  until  elected,  by  the  General  Conference  at  St. 
Louis,  in  1890,  editor  of  the  Christian  Advocate,  the  general  organ  of 
the  Church ;  for  twelve  years  he  was  its  peerless  editor,  until,  in  1902, 
at  Dallas,  Texas,  he  was  elected  a  Bishop  on  the  first  ballot  by  an  un- 
usually large  majority.  He  was  retired  to  the  superannuate  list  in  At- 
lanta, in  1918,  on  account  of  feebleness  and  failing  health.  The  hon- 
orary degrees  of  Doctor  of  Divinity  and  Doctor  of  Laws  were  con- 
ferred upon  him  by  his  alma  mater,  who  was  proud  of  her  distinguished 
son. 

So  runs  the  early  working  life  of  E.  E.  Hoss  down  to  his  election 
as  a  bishop,  or  general  superintendent  in  his  Church,  though  all  of  his 
activities  in  church  work,  both  before  and  after  his  election  to  the 
episcopacy,  cannot  be  here  enumerated,  for  his  life  covered  a  field  of 
remarkable   scope,   and   of  various  and  varied  transactions. 

Dr.  Hoss  was  a  reserve  delegate  to  the  General  Conference  of  1882, 
and  a  delegate  to  the  five  succeeding  General  Conferences,  and  led  the 
ministerial  delegations  to  the  last  three  General  Conferences,  and  to  the 
one,  inclusive,  that  elected  him  a  bishop ;  the  last  time  he  was  elected 
a  member  of  the  General  Conference,  he  lacked  only  six  votes  beside  his 
own  of  being  unanimously  elected. 

He  represented  our  Church  in  the  Ecumenical  Conference  in  Wash- 
ington City  in  1891 ;  and  in  London  in  1901,  and  in  Toronto  in  1911.  In 
1910  he  represented  our  Church  at  the  British  and  Irish  Wesleyan  Con- 
ference, and  on  the  same  trip  served  the  missions  in  China,  Japan  and 
Korea;  he  served  those  missions  again  in  1915.  He  traveled  extensively 
throughout  England  and  Ireland  making  speeches  and  preaching,  at  the 
request  of  the  Methodists  there.  He  was  a  fraternal  delegate  to  the 
Canada  Methodists ;  and  fraternal  messenger,  in  1890,  to  the  General 
Conference  of  the  M.  E.  Church.  He  represented  his  own  Church,  and 
also  the  M.  E.  Church,  at  the  request  of  her  bishops,  in  1916,  in  Aus- 
tralia, and  traveled  4,000  miles  over  that  island,  preaching,  it  being  the 
centennial  of  Methodism  there;  his  labors  there  are  said  to  have  been 
very  effective.  Bishop  Jno.  W.  Hamilton,  of  the  M.  E.  Church,  at 
Traverse  City,  Mich.,  in  1917,  speaking  before  the  Committee  on  Uni- 
fication, in  regard  to  a  message  to  be  wired  Bishop  Hoss  regretting  hu 
absence  from  the  committee  on  account  of  personal  and  family  afflic- 
tions, after  tenderly  referring  to  him  as  a  "great  man,"  said  :  "Bishop 
Hoss  is  an  honorable  man.  He  represented  the  M.  E.  Church  in  the 
Orient  as  faithfully  as  he  did  his  own.  He  knows  more  Methodists  than 
does  any  other  man.  He  is  known  by  more  Methodists  than  is  any  other 
living  man.     He  is,  in  fact,  the  leader  of  world-wide  Methodism  today." 

In  1905,  1906,  1907  and  1908  he  presided  over  the  Brazil  Methodist 
Conferences.  He  crossed  the  seas  eight  times  in  the  service  of  his 
Church.  Bishop  Hoss  was  a  member  of  the  joint  committee  that  formu- 
lated the  Methodist  Hymnal  used  by  the  two  leading  Methodist  Churches. 
He  was  a  member  of  the  Joint  Commission  for  the  Unification  of  Ameri-

can  Methodism,  and  was  easily  as  great  as  the  greatest  of  the  distin- 
guished members  of  that  body,  and  the  most  beloved  of  them  all.  He 
wrote  a  life  of  Bishop  Mckendree  and  of  Dr.  Morton.  He  wrote  u 
book  on  "Methodist  Fraternity  and  Federation,"  which  issued  from  our 
Publishing  House.  His  fraternal  addresses  were  published  in  book  form. 
He  read  widely  the  works  of  great  authors,  and  current  literature ;  wrote 
extensively  for  secular  and  religious  papers  and  for  first-class  magazines 
and  reviews.  He  wrote  the  comments  on  the  Sunday  School  lessons  ap- 
pearing in  our  Quarterlies  while  Dr.  Cunnyngham  was  Sunday  School 
editor;  and  later  Hoss'  Notes  on  the  Sunday  School  lessons  published 
in  book  form.  He  was  appointed  by  the  College  of  Bishops  to  write  a 
history  of  the  Methodist  Episcopal  Church,  South,  commenced  to  do  so, 
but  the  life-current  was  cut  before  he  had  made  much  progress  in  that 
important  undertaking. 

He  was  an  enthusiastic  leader  in  the  long  and  strenuous  fight  which 
resulted  in  state-wide  prohibition  in  Tennessee.  He  led  the  van  in  the 
memorable  judicial  contest,  wherein  the  Church  sought  to  wrench  her 
great  university  from  the  clutch  of  Caesar,  secured  a  victory  in  the 
Chancery  Court  but  failed  in  the  Court  of  Last  Resort,  but  the  defeat, 
as  subsequent  facts  revealed,  proved  a  splendid  failure,  for  the  Church, 
from  the  loss  of  one  great  university,  in  its  stead  acquired  two  greater 
still.  But  the  puissant  leader  had  overtaxed  body  and  brain,  and  his 
soul  agonized  over  the  loss  his  beloved  Church  had  sustained,  and  then 
was  marked  the  beginning  of  the  end  of  that  eventful  life  we  are  now 
commemorating. 

Thus  is  enumerated  in  part  only  what  the  indomitable  worker  did 
while  discharging  the  duties  of  pastor,  professor,  president  of  colleges, 
editor  of  the  general  organ  of  his  Church  and  general  superintendent 
of  the  Methodist  Episcopal  Church,  South.  Did  ever  a  human  being 
pack  more  of  the  good  and  great  into  a  working  life  of  fifty  years?  One 
explanation,  which  reveals  another  wonder,  was  related  to  this  writer  by 
Bishop  Hoss,  who  said,  "During  the  twelve  years  I  was  editor  of  the 
Christian  Advocate,  I  never  re-wrote  a  single  editorial."  Those  edi- 
torials that  placed  him  in  the  very  forefront  of  the  greatest  editors  of 
his  generation  were  given  to  the  reading  public  just  as  they  flew  from 
brain  to  pen  except,  very  infrequently,  one  word  was  substituted  for  an- 
other. As  to  general  and  special  information  he  was  a  living  encyclopedia. 
With  history,  sacred  and  profane,  his  familiarity  was  remarkable. 

From  the  Texas  Christian  Advocate  we  quote:  "Bishop  Hoss  was 
a  man  of  uncommon  gifts.  He  was  an  eloquent  and  convincing  preacher. 
His  mind  was  a  storehouse  of  valuable  and  amazingly  accurate  informa- 
tion. He  was  courageous  and  outspoken  so  that  his  position  on  questions 
of  public  concern  was  never  in  doubt.  In  the  social  circle  one  rarely 
meets  so  charming  a  man.  For  a  generation  he  was  a  leader  in  his  church. 
He  was  easily  among  the  foremost  editors  of  the  country." 

From  the  Arkansas  Methodist:  "Rarely  have  men  been  so  gener- 
ously endowed.  His  power  of  analysis  and  discrimination  was  keen, 
his  logical  faculty  strong,  his  memory  prodigious,  and  yet  he  had  the 
instincts  of  a  poet  and  the  temperament  of  an  advocate.  His  mind  was 
an  inexhaustable  storehouse,  and  his  forms  of  expression  were  simple 
but  rythmic,  and  delightfully  fresh  and  illuminating.  As  a  reconteur  he 
was  charming,  as  a  historian  original,  as  an  editor  elegant  and  forceful, 
as  a  preacher  elaborate  and  emotional.  His  devotion  to  his  church  was 
a  passion.  His  religious  experience  was  real  and  vital.  He  scorned 
neutrality,  and  yet  was  broad  in  his  sympathies.  For  twelve  years  he 
dominated  his  church  as  no  other  man  had  since  the  days  of  McKendree. 
His  like  we  shall  not  see  again.  The  church  mourns  one  of  her  greatest 
sons,  and  humanity  has  lost  a  brother."

Speaking  of  Bishop  Hoss  as  a  preacher  Dr.  Burrow,  editor  of  the 
Midland  Methodist,  said :  "When  at  his  best  no  man  could  surpass  him. 
He  swept  a  congregation  like  a  prairie  fire.  Information,  inspiration, 
pathos,  eloquence  and  the  manifest  power  of  the  Holy  Spirit  made  his 
deliverances  dynamic." 

The  Central  Christian  Advocate,  of  the  M.  E.  church,  among  other 
complimentary  things  said  editorially:  "One  of  the  most  conspicuous 
Methodist  leaders  during  the  latter  half  of  the  nineteenth  century  was 
Elijah  Embree  Hoss.  He  ever  was  a  prodigy  in  argument,  keen  as  a 
Damascus  blade,  but  keen  also  as  to  the  chivalry  of  argument  which  had 
a  pride  in  fair  fighting.  There  was  no  limit  to  his  versatility  in  con- 
versation, or  as  an  off-hand  speaker." 

From  a  resolution  adopted  by  the  preachers'  meeting  in  Knoxville  we 
quote  as  follows :  "Bishop  Hoss  was  a  remarkable  man.  He  was  cast 
in  a  large  mould.  He  was  a  great  preacher  and  a  wise  bishop.  In  the 
pulpit  he  was  a  master  of  assemblies;  and  when  at  his  best  he  swept 
everything  before  him." 

In  a  personal  letter  to  the  writer  from  Bishop  Denny,  who  is  not 
given  to  exaggeration,  and  who  knew  Bishop  Hoss  as  intimately  as  did 
any  other  living  person  next  to  those  of  blood  kin,  is  this  statement : 
"For  fullness  of  knowledge,  retentiveness  of  memory,  instant  command 
of  all  his  resources,  and  a  ready  wit,  he  was,  perhaps,  the  best  equipped 
man  in  the  church." 

Another  of  our  bishops  said :  "He  was  the  greatest  preacher  I  have 
ever  heard." 

In  1898  Bishop  Galloway  said  to  this  writer:  "Dr.  Hoss  is  a  marvel. 
He  is  not  only  a  very  rapid  and  prodigious  worker,  but  his  memory  is  a 
wonder.  He  can  read  a  new  book  and  then  repeat  it  substantially  from 
the  beginning  to  the  end.  He  forgets  nothing.  He  is  great  along  any 
line.  I  consider  him  the  greatest  man  in  our  church."  And  an  eminent 
jurist  said  just  before  the  death  of  the  bishop:  "He  is  the  greatest  liv- 
ing Tennessean." 

From  a  great  southern  daily  newspaper,  the  editor  a  Romanist,  the 
following  is  taken  from  an  editorial :  "The  whole  south  has  suffered  an 
irreparable  loss  in  the  death  of  Bishop  Elijah  Embree  Hoss.  This  dis- 
tinguished churchman,  educator  and  editor  passed  away  after  a  life 
crowded  with  good  and  useful  deeds  for  his  wellow-man.  He  goes  to 
his  reward  mourned  by  the  whole  southland  regardless  of  race,  creed 
or  any  other  ties.  Laboring  assiduously  in  God's  vineyard,  he  realized 
that  every  human  soul  had  an  equal  valuation  in  the  estimation  of  the 
Master  to  whose  service  he  dedicated  his  life  work.  He  will  be  missed, 
but  things  for  which  he  stood  will  continue  to  grow  and  blossom  and 
bear  fruit." 

Bishop  DuBose,  in  an  appreciation  published  in  the  Christian  Advo- 
cate, said:  Elijah  Embree  Hoss  was  great,  and  is  freat  forever.  The 
late  President  Roosevelt,  in  my  presence,  and  in  the  presence  of  twenty 
other  churchmen,  appraised  him  one  of  the  conspicuous  intellects  of  the 
continent ;  and  I  have  occasion  to  know  that  the  man  who  today  is  hailed 
as  the  supreme  arbiter  of  world  destinies  has  long  held  concerning  him 
a  not  dissimilar  judgment.  Bishop  Hoss  was  the  church  statesman  of 
his  age  and  denomination.  No  Methodist  has  surpassed  him,  no  Meth- 
odist has  equalled  him,  in  this  sphere,  in  his  generation." 

Quotations  of  similar  import  to  the  foregoing  might  be  made  enough 
to  make  a  book.  But  we  desist.  His  intellectual  powers  were  massive, 
and  his  attainments  phenomenal.  Able  writers  have  already  assayed  to 
measure  and  to  analyze  them.  It  is  into  the  realm  of  the  soul  of  him 
we   loved   so   dearly   we   wish   to   look   more   particularly   just   now,    and 


HOLSTON  ANNUAL  71 

present  for  consideration  those  hidden  and  finer  virtues  which  were  the 
most  potent  in  the  formation  of  the  grand  character  of  the  man. 

This  writer  had  superior  opportunities  to  discern  the  basic  principles 
upon  which  that  character  was  built,  he  believes,  and  hopes  it  will  not  be 
amiss  to  briefly  set  forth  some  of  them. 

Our  ancestral  families  were  related  by  blood,  and  were  intimate.  The 
writer  knew  Embree  Hoss  when  he  was  a  small  boy.  In  the  year  1869, 
in  Greeneville,  Tennessee,  one  commenced  his  pastor  life,  and  the  other 
his  professional  carer.  Both  occupied  the  same  office  and  the  same  bed 
in  that  office.  Their  aspirations  and  hopes  were  a  common  knowledge. 
An  intimate  friendship  was  then  formed  that  grew  in  closeness  and 
strength,  as  fifty  years  flew  past,  without  a  strain  or  a  jar.  The  younger, 
by  some  eight  years,  first  grew  weary,  lay  down  to  rest,  feel  on  sleep  and 
awoke  in  the  paradise  of  God ;  and  now,  the  elder  is  trying  to  do  that 
which  the  younger  stood  pledged  to  perform  had  the  conditions  been  re- 
versed as  to  longevity. 

The  life  of  E.  E.  Hoss  was  a  busy  and  a  fruitful  one.  He  never 
learned  to  rest  or  to  work  leisurely,  for  his  nature  was  impulsive. 
He  was  combative  for  a  principle,  but  was  as  chivalrous  as  any  knight- 
errant  of  history  or  legend  or  song.  He  lived  in  an  atmosphere  of  love, 
and  his  sympathies-  took  in  all  suffering  humanity,  for  the  fatherhood 
of  God  and  the  brotherhood  of  man  was  a  religious  axiom  by  which 
all  his  acts  were  squared.  His  life  was  clean,  and  as  pure,  so  far  as 
indicated  by  word  or  deed,  as  the  morning  dewdrop  on  a  spear  of  grass. 
The  spirit  of  benevolence  enriched  his  soul.  He  dispensed  charities  be- 
yond his  means,  and  until  he  left  an  estate  little  more  than  that  of  the 
widow  of  sacred  writ  who  cast  her  all  into  the  treasury  of  the  Lord.  He 
was  as  humble  as  the  publican  immortalized  by  Bible  history.  When 
the  vote  was  announced  that  recorded  him  a  bishop-elect  he  burst  into 
tears,  bowed  his  head  to  his  knees,  uttered  a  prayer  to  God  to  make 
him  worthy  of  the  sacred  duty  imposed,  and  to  give  him  strength  to 
bear  the  new  responsibilities  cast  upon  him.  His  life  was  as  trans- 
parent as  the  limpid  waters  of  his  native  heath.  Envy  never  smirched 
his  soul,  and  he  took  delight  in  the  advancement  of  others,  and  would 
lend  a  helping  hand  even  against  his  own  promotion.  It  is  well  known, 
and  a  fact  worthy  of  record,  that  he  was  earnestly  endeavoring  to  secure 
the  election  of  a  friend  to  the  editorship  of  the  Christian  Advocate  at 
the  very  time  he  was  chosen  to  that  exalted  position.  He  was  human, 
was  fallible  and  made  mistakes,  but  they  were  of  the  head,  his  heart  was 
always  right.  He  gave  his  confidence  without  reserve,  but  too  easily,  for 
frequently  it  was  misplaced  and  caused  him  pain.  In  the  social  circle, 
anywhere,  everywhere,  he  was  always  the  central  figure,  the  royal  en- 
tertainer by  his  charms  of  speech,  his  depth  of  thought,  his  broad  and 
accurate  information,  or  his  inexhaustible  fund  of  humor,  as  the  occa- 
sion demanded ;  and  this  leadership  in  social  discourse  was  not  by  as- 
sumption but  by  unanimous  consent  of  those  delightfully  entertained.  He 
scattered  sunshine  all  along  his  pathway  and  never  brought  sorrow  to 
a  human  heart,  nor  needlessly  put  a  shadow  on  a  human  brow,  though 
he  occupied  positions  most  exacting  in  duties  to  be  performed.  He 
was  deeply  pious  and  intensely  religious,  and  had  a  faith  in  the  Cru- 
cified One  that  was  sublime.  He  was  anchored  so  firmly  to  the  God  he 
so  faithfully  served  that  he  could  contemplate  his  passing  without  & 
tremor,  and  in  anticipation  of  his  final  and  crowning  victory  could  say: 
"Death,  where  is  thy  sting;  grave,  where  is  thy  victory?"  He  was  a 
hero  of  exalted  type. 

Have  I  magnified  his  virtues?  I  have  spoken  of  his  inner  life,  and 
from  the  secret  chambers  of  his  being,  from  what  was  revealed  by  the 
mirror  of  his  soul.  And  yet,  he  was  a  man  of  sorrows.     The  afflictions.

some  of  them  from  tragedies  of  those  he  loved  as  dearly  as  he  did  his 
own  life,  bore  heavily  on  his  great  spirit,  and  often  he  was  bowed  with 
grief,  but  every  heart-ache  drove  him  closer  to  the  throne.  From  experi- 
ence he  learned  every  phase  of  human  life  except  that  of  depravity.  He 
drank  from  every  fountain,  sweet  and  bitter,  but  not  befouled  by  sin. 

As  a  husband  and  father  love  and  devotion  formed  the  crown  jewel 
of  the  family  life.  He  loved  his  church  beyond  measure,  especially 
his  Holston  Conference  as  was  manifest  at  its  1918  session  at  Johnsou 
City.  Although  technically  he  ceased  to  be  a  member  of  the  body  on  his 
elevation  to  the  episcopacy,  yet  its  love  and  affection  for  him  manifested 
by  keeping  his  name  on  the  membership  roll,  by  unanimous  vote,  touched 
him  deeply.  Next  to  his  church,  and  the  Holston  Methodism  of  that 
church,  the  Holston  country  and  her  people  were  objects  of  his  affection. 
Neither  ever  had  a  more  loyal  son,  nor  one  more  ready  to  defend,  nor 
one  so  able. 

And  now  that  his  pen  has  dropped,  and  his  voice  is  hushed,  and 
he  is  numbered  with  the  dead,  the  history  of  Holston  Methodism,  aye, 
of  world-wide  Methodism,  will  be  largely  unwritten  until  a  full 
chapter  is  devoted  to  the  life  and  work  of  the  loftiest  son  of  Holston 
Methodism.  And  more,  Holston  Methodism  will  never  show  a  proper 
appreciation  of  him  who  wrought  so  gloriously  and  so  imperishably 
until  a  shaft,  suitably  inscribed  commemorative  of  his  deeds,  shall  have 
been  erected  by  her  over  his  sleeping  dust  in  the  far  away  state  of 
Oklahoma.  E.  C.  Reeves. 


BENJAMIN  FLOYD  NUCKOLLS. 

On  April  4,  1919,  at  the  home  of  his  daughter,  Mrs.  J.  E.  Johnston, 
at  Cleveland,  Tenn.,  another  honored  veteran  of  Holston  Conference 
crossed  over  death's  silent  river  and  entered  into  the  rest  that  remains 
for  the  people  of  God.  He  was  five  month  and  fourten  days  beyond 
his  eightieth  birthday,  having  been  born  at  Old  Town,  Va.,  October  20, 
1838.  He  was  married  to  Miss  Mary  Fletcher  Goodykoontz,  of  Floyd 
county,  Virginia,  November  6,  1865.  To  them  four  children,  two  sons 
and  two  daughters,  were  born.  The  two  little  boys  died  in  childhood. 
The  two  daughters,  Mrs.  B.  G.  Witherow,  of  Galax,  Va.,  and  Mrs. 
J.  E.  Johnston,  of  Cleveland,  Tenn.,  survive  him.  Knowing  the  grief  of 
Brother  and  Sister  Nuckolls  over  the  loss  of  their  little  boys,  a  loved 
sister,  Mrs.  B.  E.  Ward,  on  her  deathbed  left  to  their  care  her  infant 
son,  Ballard  Ernest  Ward.  He  was  loved  and  reared  in  their  home 
as  their  own  son  and  now  lives  in  Pocahontas,  Va.,  being  at  the  present 
time  assistant  treasurer  of  the  Pocahontas  Fuel  Co. 

Brother  Nuckolls  was  the  son  of  Clark  S.  and  Rosa  Bourne  Hale 
Nuckolls  and  a  member  of  a  family  of  eight  daughters  and  four  sons, 
every  one  of  whom  has  blessed  the  world  by  an  honorable  and  useful  life. 
In  the  sacred  influences  of  such  a  home  as  this  the  childhood  of  Brother 
Nuckolls  was  spent.  He  was  educated  at  Jefferson  Academy,  Ashe  county, 
North  Carolina,  and  early  in  life  he  entered  business  with  his  father  at 
Old  Town,  Va.,  with  bright  prospects  for  a  successful  career  before 
him.  But  the  hand  of  the  Lord  was  upon  him  calling  him  to  the  high 
and  holy  work  of  the  Christian  ministry.  ''He  was  not  disobedient  to 
the  heavenly  vision,"  but  while  the  dark  clouds  of  civil  war  were  spread- 
ing over  our  southland,  and  our  native  state  was  calling  her  young  man- 
hood to  the  defense  of  her  constitutional  liberties,  there  was  a  more  im- 
perative call  to  him  to  enter  the  ranks  of  that  host  that  fights  not  against 
flesh  and  blood. 

On  May  31,  1861,  he  was  licensed  to  preach  by  the  Quarterly  Confer- 


HOLSTON  ANNUAL  73 

ence  of  Grayson  Circuit,  held  at  Independence,  Va.,  Rev.  J.  M.  McTeer, 
presiding  elder,  and  admitted  on  trial  into  the  Holston  Conference  at 
Greeneville,  Tenn.,  in  October  of  the  same  year.  From  this  Conference 
he  was  returned  to  his  home  circuit  as  junior  preacher,  and  here  began 
the  active  work  of  an  itinerant  preacher  that  continued  without  inter- 
mission for  twenty-four  years,  during  which  he  was  pastor  of  the  Grayson, 
Hillsville,  Floyd  and  Wytheville  Circuits  in  Virginia  and  the  Athens 
and  Concord  and  other  circuits  in  Tennessee.  During  the  years  1867, 
1868  and  1869,  Brother  Nuckolls'  woik  was  in  Upper  East  Tennessee, 
and  he  was  frequently  locked  out  and  forbidden  to  preach  in  his  own 
church.  His  friends  frequently  opened  the  closed  churches  by  climbing  into 
windows,  and  while  the  service  was  being  conducted  parties  stood  on 
guard  outside  the  church,  but  not  an  appointment  was  missed. 

In  1871  he  was  sent  back  to  his  old  home  as  the  pastor  of  Grayson 
Circuit,  and  here  among  the  companions  of  his  boyhood  days  he  did 
the  most  efficient  work  of  his  ministerial  life.  For  four  years  he  traveled 
this  large  circuit,  which  covered  about  all  the  territory  now  embraced 
in  seven  pastoral  charges,  and  scores  of  the  strongest  men  and  women 
of  this  hill  country  were  brought  into  the  church  under  his  ministry. 

At  the  Conference  held  at  Cleveland,  Tenn.,  October,  1885  he  was 
given  a  supernumerary  relation  and  came  to  his  home  at  Old  Town,  Va., 
to  spend  the  declining  years  of  his  life,  but  not  to  suspend  his  active 
work  as  a  Christian  minister.  In  the  homes  of  affliction  and  places  of 
sorrow  as  well  as  at  the  marriage  altar  his  presence  was  continually  in 
demand.  He  was  active  in  revival  meetings  and  efforts  to  save  sinners 
up  to  the  last  days  of  his  life. 

During  the  last  ten  years  of  his  life  he  collected  the  material  and 
wrote  that  valuable  book,  "Pioneer  Settlers  of  Grayson  County."  Copies 
of  this  book  are  in  the  library  of  the  Daughters  of  the  American  Revo- 
lution and  in  the  Congressional  Library  at  Washington  and  in  the  State 
Library  at  Richmond,  Va.  Brother  Nuckolls  recognized  the  value  of 
Christian  education,  was  always  the  friend  of  schools,  and  before  his 
death  he  gave  his  personal  library  to  the  shool  library  in  Galax. 

As  the  shadows  of  age  and  infirmities  gathered  about  him  his  Bible 
was  his  constant  companion.  On  the  flyleaf  he  made  a  record  on  his 
eightieth  birthday  that  he  had  read  it  through  sixty-two  times.  As 
death  approached  he  did  not  "shrink  and  fear  to  die,"  but  gave  directions 
for  the  burial  of  his  body  and  spoke  of  the  rest  of  heaven  being  so 
much  better  for  him.  During  his  last  illness  he  often  asked  his  nurses 
and  those  who  came  to  minister  to  him  if  they  loved  the  Lord  and  if 
they  were  Christians.  The  most  tender  care  and  faithful  nursing  made 
the  journey  down  to  the  last  river  as  free  from  r>ain  as  it  could  possi- 
bly be. 

It  was  a  beautiful  April  Sunday  morning  when  the  train  bearing  his 
remains,  accompanied  by  Rev.  James  A.  Burrow,  D.  D.,  Mr.  J.  E.  John- 
ton,  and  other  friends,  reached  the  station  at  Galax,  and  the  great  com- 
pany of  relatives  and  friends  and  the  long  procession  of  Masons  that 
awaited  its  coming  attested  the  high  esteem  in  which  he  was  held  at 
his  old  home. 

The  body  was  taken  to  the  church,  where  a  beautiful  service,  con- 
ducted by  Dr.  Burrow,  assisted  by  Rev.  J.  A.  Bays,,  J.  W.  Byrd  and 
T.  C.  Vaughn,  was  held.  We  then  went  to  the  cemetery  on  the  summit 
of  the  hill  overlooking  the  place  of  his  birth,  and  the  home  of  his 
childhood,  where  the  members  of  Old  Town  lodge,  A.  F.  and  A.  M., 
of  which  Brother  Nuckolls  had  many  years  been  chaplain,  with  many 
visiting  brethren  from  other  lodges,  gathered  around  the  open  grave  and 
the  beautiful  burial  service  of  the  order,  led  by  Dr.  B.  S.  Dobyns,  was 
most  imprssively  rendered.

The  grave  was  filled  and  piled  high  with  floral  tributes  of  love  that 

came  from  many  friends  in  many  -laces.     Under  the  flowers  we  left  the

ELBERT  W.  FISHER. 

The  death  of  Elbert  W.  Fisher,  on  the  night  of  December  22,  came 
as  a  great  shock  to  his  many  friends.  He  had  been  suffering  for  two 
or  three  weeks  from  Spanish  influenza,  but  no  one  thought  of  the  results 
being  fatal  till  the  last  few  hours. 

He  was  born  in  Wythe  county,  Virginia,  February  14,  1885.  He  was 
converted  at  the  age  of  twelve  years,  at  Siloam  church  during  services 
conducted  by  Rev.  S.  T.  M.  McPherson,  and  was  licensed  to  preach  in 
the  Wytheville  district  September  8,  1909,  under  Rev.  J.  O.  Straley  as 
presiding  elder.  He  was  admitted  to  the  Holston  Confernce  on  trial 
October,  1911.  He  was  admitted  into  full  connection  in  1915  and  or- 
dained elder  in  1917.  He  died  at  Roderfield,  W.  Va.,  when  beginning 
work  on  his  fourth  charge. 

He  was  married  to  Linda  Brown  Richardson,  of  Wythe  county,  Vir- 
ginia, on  December  28,  1911,  the  writer  officiating.  To  this  union  were 
born  two  boys,  Harrill,  aged  five,  and  Reginald,  about  three,  both  of 
whom  are  living.  His  first  charge  was  Coveton  Mission,  where  he 
served  one  year.  The  next  fall  he  was  sent  to  Mora  Circuit,  where  he 
served  two  years.  From  here  he  was  sent  to  Coalwood,  where  he 
served  most  faithfully  for  four  years.  Last  fall  he  was  sent  to  Big 
Sandy,  where  he  had  labored  for  only  a  few  weeks  when  the  end  came. 

Brother  Fisher  was  a  young  man  of  more  than  the  usual  piety  and 
devoted  to  Christ.  It  was  very  properly  said  of  him  that  his  chief 
charactertisic  was  being  religious.  Certain  conditions  prompted  him  to 
enter  his  ministry  with  less  preparation  than  he  wanted  to  have,  but 
he  developed  into  a  most  faithful,  earnest  pastor  in  spite  of  this.  His 
people  loved  him  and  regretted  the  four-year  limit  when  the  time  came 
for  him  to  leave  Coalwood.  He  was  splendidly  received  and  kindly  wel- 
comed to  his  new  charge  on  which  he  did  his  last  work.  His  life  was 
one  of  more  than  ordinary  promise,  and  he,  with  his  many  friends, 
looked  to  the  future  for  many  years  of  service.  He  held  the  confi- 
dence of  his  own  people  and  the  esteem  of  others.  His  faith  in  God 
was  strong  but  simple,  his  character  was  blameless,  and  his  influence 
was  always  wholesome.  His  last  conversation  with  the  writer,  just  be- 
fore the  last  session  of  the  Holston  Conference,  breathed  a  childlike 
trust  in  God  that  wasi  beautiful.  His  conversation,  of  course,  was  of 
his  future  ministry  and  of  tender  concern  for  the  boys  and  his  com- 
panion. But  there  was  always  evident  his  earnest  desire  to  be  of  the 
largest  service  to  the  church  that  he  loved  so  dearly. 

Viewed  from  a  purely  human  standpoint  Brother  Fisher's  death  was 
very  untimely,  for  his  life  was  cut  off  while  yet  in  the  strength  of  his 
manhood  and  in  the  midst  of  useful  labor.  But  God  seeth  not  as  man 
seeth,  and  who  shall  question  either  the  wisdom  or  the  goodness  of  the 
Lord's  harvest?  Who  knows  but  that  in  the  light  of  that  perfect  life 
upon  which  he  has  entered  he  has  found  opportunity  for  a  service  that 
is  useful  and  joyous  and  without  earthly  limitations?

LIEUT.  JOHN  M.  PAXTON,  JR. 

John  Moore  Paxton  was  born  near  Sweetwater,  Tenn.,  February  15, 
1895.  He  was  baptized  by  Rev.  David  Sullins,  D.  D.,  at  the  age  of  eight 
months.  He  was  converted  and  entered  the  church  when  he  was  nine 
years  old,  under  the  ministry  of  his  father  at  Sevierville,  Tenn.  He  en- 
tered Emory  and  Henry  college,  after  having  completed  his  high  school 
work  at  Elk  Creek,  Va.,  and  was  a  student  in  Emory  and  Henry  for 
nearly  four  years.  On  April  5,  1917,  he  laid  aside  his  books  and  an- 
swered the  call  of  his  country  by  enlisting  in  the  regular  army.  He 
was  sent  to  Columbus,  Ohio,  and  given  clerical  work  on  the  staff  of 
the  medical  department.  He  wrote  me  several  times  that  he  could  not 
remain  content  with  that  sort  of  work.  So,  at  his  own  request,  he  was 
transferred  in  June  to  the  infantry  and  began  his  services  as  a  regular 
army  private.  In  September  he  was  transferred  to  Camp  Upton  and 
named  as  first  sergeant.  Last  January  he  was  appointed  to  an  officers' 
training  school,  in  which  he  graduated  thirty-fourth  in  a  class  of  five 
hundred,  and  was  commissioned  second  lieutenant  in  the  regular  army. 
He  sailed  for  France  in  April  with  the  Seventy-seventh  New  York 
division  and  landed  in  France  April  30.  From  this  time  on  he  saw  ac- 
tive service  of  various  kinds,  until  September  3,  when  he  was  wounded. 
On  October  13  he  died  in  Red  Cross  military  hospital  No.  3,  Paris, 
France. 

A  short  time  after  he  was  wounded  I  received  a  letter  from  him 
in  which  he  gave  a  description  of  the  engagement  in  which  he  had 
received  his  wound.  He  was  then  extremely  hopeful  of  an  early  re- 
covery and  return  to  active  work  at  the  front. 

John  Paxton  was  true  to  his  high  ideals.  He  was  reared  in  a  Meth- 
odist parsonage,  attended  a  Methodist  college,  and  never  let  these  two 
facts  get  out  of  his  consciousness.  There  was  no  compromise  between 
right  and  wrong  in  his  mind,  and  there  could  be  none  in  his  conduct. 
There  were  only  two  sides  to  a  question,  according  to  his  habit  of 
thinking,  and  no  man  or  principle  or  nation  could  be  halt  and  half.  He 
had  the  instinctive  habit  of  classifying  individuals  and  principles  almost 
instantly,    according   to   his   one    classification.      They    were    either   right 

or  wi"ong-  Charms  C.  Weaver. 


FRANK  HUNTER  LYONS 

Frank  Hunter,  son  of  Rev.  and  Mrs.  W.  S.  Lyons,  peacefully  and 
resignedly,  upon  being  summoned,  quit  this  mortal  sphere  at  the  par- 
sonage at  Elk  Creek,  Va.,  August  31  and  went  up  to  join  the  immor- 
tals at  the  age  of  twenty-five  years.  Soon  after  the  United  States  had 
declared  that  a  state  of  war  existed  between  us  and  Germany,  Frank  vol- 
unteered for  the  marine  corps,  but  was  rejected  on  the  grounds  of  be- 
ing physically  disqualified.  Notwithstanding,  he  insisted  that  his  coun- 
try assign  him  to  duty  somewhere,  and  so  he  was  admitted  to  civil 
service  work  as  superintendent  of  the  supply  department,  and  was  sta- 
tioned at  the  naval  base  at  Jamestown,  Va.  He  had  an  attack  of 
grippe  in  December,  and,  going  to  work  too  soon,  it  developed  into 
pneumonia,  which  developed  into  tubercular  trouble,  which  necessitated 
his    giving   up    his    job    and    returning   home.      Frank   wished    so    much 


76  HOLSTON  ANNUAL 

to  live,  but  when  he  realized  that  he  must  succumb  to  this  dreadful 
malady  he  was  perfectly  resigned  to  the  will  of  God. 

He  was  converted  under  his  father's  ministry  at  Max  Meadows  and 
joined  the  M.  E.  Church,  South,  at  the  age  of  fourteen.  Frank  had 
many  noble  characteristic  traits  and  lived  a  life  worthy  of  emulation. 
This  is  the  second  death  in  Brother  Lyon's  family  this  year— the  oldest 
and  the  youngest  of  the  family.  This  family  could  not  have  asked  for 
more  love  and  sympathy  in  the  sore  trials  than  the  good  people  of  Elk 
Creek  gave  them. 

The  funeral  service  was  conducted  from  Lebanon  church  by  Revs. 
T.  C.  Vaughan  and  George  T.  Jordan,  and  interment  was  made  beside  the 
little  brother  in  the  new  cemetery  near  by.  The  floral  tributes  were 
profuse,  and  Old  Glory  wrapped  the  mound.  Brother  Rader,  our  pre- 
siding elder,  could  not  be  reached  by  wire,  hence  his  absence  from  this 
funeral.  G.  T.  Jordan. 

SIDNEY    MARVIN  PAINTER. 

Sidney  Marvin  Painter,  son  of  Rev.  Charles  E.  and  Cordelia  Edith 
Painter,  was  born  at  Richlands,  Va.,  October  31,  1895;  was  converted 
at  the  age  of  eight,  and  was  licensed  to  preach  by  the  licensing  com- 
mittee of  the  Bluefield  district  sometime  during  the  late  summer  or 
early  fall  of  1917.  He  was  married  to  Miss  Elizabeth  Wynn  April 
18,  1918.  He  was  called  to  the  service  of  hia  country  April  26,  1918, 
and  was  killed  in  action  September  28,  1918. 

If  he  had  lived  to  complete  his  education  and  enter  the  pastorate 
he  would  have  made  a  success.  He  loved  the  cause  of  his  Master, 
he  loved  people,  he  loved  to  serve,  he  preached  without  ostentation  or 
apology.  People  were  well  impressed  with  his  preaching,  but  it  was 
in  his  prayer  life  that  he  arose  to  his  highest  level  as  a  young  man  and 
preacher.  He  never  forgot  to  pray  for  his  preacher  father  at  the  hours 
of  public  worship.  He  was  devoted  to  his  father  and  mother  almost 
to  the  point  of  hero  worship.  He  liked  to  make  friends  and  took  de- 
light in  doing  favors  for  his  friends.  Last  year  he  sent  me  his  license 
and  his  report  for  district  conference.  His  license  being  renewed,  I 
returned  them  to  him  that  same  day,  and  I  doubt  not  that  they  were  on 
his  person  when  he  fell.    His  chaplain  says  in  writing  to  Mrs.  Painter: 

"He  was  a  good,  loyal,  fearless  soldier.  Before  he  went  into  action 
he  was  made  sergeant.  He  was  well  liked  by  his  officers  and  all  the  men 
of  his  company.  His  lieutenant  led  the  platoon  over  the  top  and  was 
wounded.  Then  twice  he  led  them  over,  but  the  third  time  he  fell,  as 
brave  a  hero  as  ever  fell.  He  was  a  good  soldier  of  his  country  and 
the  cause  of  freedom,  which,  thank  God,  I  believe  we  have  won.  He  was 
also  a  brave  soldier  of  Jesus  Christ  and  never  fell  into  any  of  the  army 
pitfalls.     Neither  was  he  ashamed  of  the  Christ  whom  he  loved." 

Captain  H.  H.  Cooney,  314th  infantry  regiment,  A.  E.  F.,  says: 

"Sergeant  Painter  was  killed  in  action  while  gallantly  leading  his 
platoon  against  the  enemy.  He  showed  exceptional  bravery  in  action, 
and  his  death  has  been  a  very  hard  blow  to  his  company,  as  he  was  well 
liked  by  all  the  officers  and  men  in  his  organization."

MERRILL  H.  THORN. 

"How  long  we  live,  not  years  but  actions  tell ; 
That  man  lives  twice  who  lives  this  life  well." 

Let  this  couplet  tell  the  story  of  many  a  soldier's  life,  whether  he 
lived   the  hero's  life   or  died  the  martyr's  death.     Talents   are  made  in 


HOLSTON  ANNUAL  77 

the  secret  silent  chambers  of  the  soul,  but  character  is  formed  and  fin- 
ished on  the  open  arena,  in  the  conflicts  and  conquests  of  the  battlefield.    , 

"They  are  not  dead  whose  noble  minds 

Lift  ours  on  high; 
To  live  in  hearts  we  leave  behind 

Is  not  to  die." 

Merrill  Hale  Thorne  was  well  born  and  wisely  bread  for  the  times 
in  which  and  for  which  he  was  to  meet  and  master  the  problems  of  his 
day.  Born  November  14,  1895  (son  of  Rev.  A.  S.  Thorn  and  wife),  in 
Princeton,  W.  Va.,  and  died  in  the  United  States  hospital,  New  York, 
October  9,  1918,  just  as  the  matin  hymn  of  a  hopeful  morn  refrained  its 
epic  notes  on  the  lucid  heights  of  manhood's  laudable  ambition. 

"Then  all  himself,  all  joy  and  calm, 

Though  for  awhile  his  hands  forego, 
Just  as  he  touched  the  martyr's  palm 

He  turned  him  to  his  task  below." 

With  the  highest  rank  in  the  Engineering  School  of  the  West  Vir- 
ginia University,  in  June,  1918,  Merrill  had  qualified  himself,  by  grad- 
uation, for  his  chosen  life  work.  When  he  enlisted  in  the  United  States 
army,  May  20,  1918,  he  was  sent  to  the  officers'  training  school,  Colum- 
bia University,  and  was  assigned  to  the  295th  aero  squadron  in  the  air 
service.  Just  as  he  had  about  finished  his  course  to  be  commissioned 
officer  in  a  very  few  weeks  he  was  stricken  down  with  a  fatal  attack 
of  the  influenza,  and  in  the  presence  of  his  sorrowing  father,  who  had 
hastened  to  his  bedside  and  to  whom  he  left  the  testimony  of  an  honest 
confession  and  an  unfearing  death,  the  loving  and  loyal  son  of  a  Christian 
home  pillowed  his  patriotic  heart  upon  the  promises  of  his  God  in  Christ 
and  went  up  to  await,  in  the  home  of  the  throned  and  crowned  worthies, 
the  home-coming  of  the  loved  ones  of  earth. 

Merrill's  Major,  Rodmon  Gilder,  says  he  made  a  record  in  the  radio 
school  but  few  if  any  had  excelled,  and  that  he  was  loved  and  honored 
by  all  the  officers  and  cadets  who  knew  him.  And  so  he  leaves  a  lasting 
legacy  of  a  brave  and  beautiful  life  as  the  richest  inheritance  the  heirs 
of  our  Christian  homes  can  bequeath  to  parental  affection  and  devotion, 
to  national  peace  and  prosperity.  jN0  -y-   £R0WE
