FOREWORD 

In  1682  it  was  found  necessary  to  divide  the  inhabited  parts  of 
the  Province  of  South  CaroHna  into  Counties,  of  which  tnree  were 
laid  out,  Berkeley,  embracing  Charleston,  and  the  space  around 
the  capital,  "extending  from  Sewee  on  the  north  to  Stono  Creek 
on  the  South ;  beyond  this  to  the  North- ward  was  Craven  County ; 
and  to  the  Southward  Colleton  County,  all  extending  within  the 
land  to  a  distance  of  thirty-five  miles  from  the  Sea-coast."  (Rivers 
History  of  South  Carolina,  p.  134.) 

Shortly  afterwards  Carteret  county  was  added  to  the  number. 
"These  counties  were  subdivided  into  squares  of  12,000  acres  each, 
for  the  several  shares  of  the  proprietors,  land-graves,  and  cas- 
siques."  Oldmixon  in  Carroll's  vol.  2.  Craven,  formerly  denomi- 
nated Clarendon  county,  embraced  in  its  subsequent  extensions 
a  much  larger  territory  than  the  other  counties.  From  Berkeley 
on  the  south,  it  reached  towards  the  Cape  Fear  on  the  north, 
and  with  North  Carolina  for  one  boundary  on  the  north,  and 
north-west,  and  the  Santee  and  its  branches  on  the  other  sides, 
it  extended  through  a  wide  belt  of  country  from  the  sea-coast  to 
the  mountains.  ...  It  took  its  name  from  William,  Earl 
of  Craven,  one  of  the  first  lord  proprietors,  and  long  retained 
it.  ...  This  county  embraced  the  region  of  the  Pedee 
throughout  its  course,  from  the  North  Carolina  line  southward. 

The  first  parochial  organization  in  Craven  County  was  under 
an  Act  of  Assembly  of  1706,  commonly  called  the  Church  Act, 
passed  for  the  establishment  of  religious  worship  according  to  the 
Church  of  England,  and  for  erecting  churches.  It  divided  the 
Province  into  ten  parishes,  of  which  Craven  County  constituted 
one,  by  the  name  of  St.  James  Santee. — In  1721  the  Parish  of 
Prince  George,  Winyah,  was  established, — bounded  on  the  S.  W. 
by  Santee  River,  on  the  N.  E.  by  the  Cape  Fear  River,  on 
the  East  by  the  Ocean,  and  on  the  West  "as  far  as  it  shall  be  in- 
habited by  his  Majesty's  subjects. "  "Statutes"  vol.  3,  p.  171.  In 
1734,  a  further  division  took  place;  the  Parish  of  Prince  Frederick 


IV  FOREWORD 

being  established,  and  taken  from  that  of  Prince  George,  Winyah, 
embracing,  according  to  the  Act,  the  region  of  the  Upper  Pedee 
on  the  West.  (Statutes,  vol.  3,  p.  374.)  Dissatisfaction  still 
continued  to  exist  as  to  the  dividing  line  between  the  two 
Parishes.  It  had  been  decided  that  the  line  was  to  extend  due 
North  over  the  Pedee  River  to  the  utmost  bounds  of  the  Province, 
it  being  provided  "that  the  tract  of  land  to  the  East  of  the  said 
line,  between  that  and  the  Sea,  should  be  deemed  as  part  of  the 
Parish  of  Prince  George,  Winyah  and  on  the  other  side  of  the 
line  to  the  West,  a  part  of  the  Parish  of  Prince  Frederick. "  The 
following  letter  of  Colonel  George  Pawley  brought  the  matter  to 
the  notice  of  Council: — 

July  7th  1739. 
Please  your  Honour. — I  think  it  my  duty  to  inform  your  Honour 
that  tlie  dividing  line  of  Prince  George  and  Prince  Frederick's 
Parishes  is  not  yet  finished  according  to  the  additional  Act  made, 
which  was  to  cross  Pedee  River,  and  continue  a  North  course 
till  it  touch  the  Provincial  line;  which,  if  it  is  done,  will,  in  my  hum- 
ble opinion,  break  that  small  company  as  is  of  late  erected  on 
that  Neck  lying  between  Great  Pedee  and  Little  Pedee  Rivers 
also  it  will  cross  some  part  of  Queen sborough  TowTiship  which  is  a 
Parish  of  itself.  Therefore  if  your  Honour  pleases  to  think  on  it, 
I  doubt  not  but  you  will  be  of  the  opinion  to  have  Great  Pedee 
the  boundary  of  the  Parish  upward  from  where  the  line  is  marked 
and  strikes  the  said  River;  for  as  it  now  stands,  there  is  a  confusion 
among  the  Inhabitants,  not  knowing  in  what  Parish  they  belong; 
also,  the  Surveyors  know  not  how  to  certify  their  Plots  some  for 
one  Parish  and  some  for  the  other.  There  if  the  river  be  the 
Bounds  the  work  is  done,  and  no  charge  to  the  Publick;  and  that 
your  Honour  may  have  a  better  idea,  I  have  drawn  a  small  Draft 
of  the  Rivers  in  these  Parts;  so  I  beg  your  Honour  will  be  so  good 
as  to  forgive,  if  I  have  done  amiss,  for  it  is  not  my  intent  so  to  do, 
but  the  hearty  desire  for  the  good  of  the  place.  So  beg  leave  to 
subscribe  myself  your  Honour's  most  obedient,  humble  servant 
to  command,  "George  Pawley. " 

To  the  Hon.  Wm.  Bull.  (Council  Journal,  No.  7.) 


FOREWORD  V 

Whereupon,  it  was  "Ordered,  that  the  Clerk  do  draw  out  two 
copies  of  Mr.  George  Pawley's  letter,  with  the  draft  of  the  Rivers, 
one  of  them  to  be  sent  to  the  Parish  of  Prince  Frederick's,  the 
other  to  be  sent  to  the  Parish  of  Prince  George  to  know  whether 
they  have  any  objection  to  make  to  the  proposals  contained  in  the 
said  letter,  for  settling  the  Boundary  of  these  Parishes,  and  to 
return  an  answer. "  The  matter  having  thus  been  referred  to  the 
inhabitants,  action  was  taken  by  them;  and  on  the  25th  January 
1742,  a  Petition  from  sundry  inhabitants  of  Prince  George  was 
laid  before  Council  praying  that  the  Great  Pedee  might  be  made 
the  dividing  line  between  the  Parishes;  ....  This  petition 
was  signed  by  George  Pawley,  John  Woodbury,  David  Cherrey 
and  thirty-eight  others. 

A  counter  petition  was  at  the  same  time  presented  by  John 
Avant,  and  nineteen  others,  inhabitants  of  Prince  Frederick's 
praying  the  line  should  not  be  so  run: 

"1st.  Because  the  Inhabitants  residing  between  the  said 
rivers  are  twelve  miles  and  upwards  nearer  co  our  Parish  Church 
than  to  George-town. 

2nd.  The  major  part  of  the  above-said  Inhabitants  must  go 
through  our  Parish  and  pass  by  our  Church  to  pubHc  worship, 
and  other  reUgious  duties  and  other  officers  to  George-town.         : 

3rd.  Because  the  said  Inhabitants  humbly  pray  to  be  included 
in  the  River. 

4th.  Because  the  Town-ship  of  Queensborough  is  laid  on  both 
sides  of  the  Pedee  River;  and 

5th.  That  whenever  the  Legislature  shall  to  erect  the  Town- 
ship of  Queensborough  and  Williamsburg  into  separate  Parishes, 
this  of  Prince  Frederick's  being  the  oldest  Parish  (from  which 
Prince  George  was  divided,)  will  be  confined  to  narrow  limits, 
and  consequently  for  ever  remain  one  of  the  smallest,  if  not 
poorest,  Parishes  in  the  Province,  if  so  valuable  a  branch  as  that 
of  Pedee  be  taken  from  it." 

"We  further  presume  to  acquaint  your  Hon"  that  the  North 
line  appointed  by  Act  of  Assembly  to  be  run  from  John  Bogg'.s 
plantation,  on  Black  River,  was  supposed  and  intended  (by  our 


VI  FOREWORD 

Representatives)  to  make  Pedee  River  at  or  below  the  plantation 
Euhaney,  belonging  to  Mr.  Percival  Pawley,  about  18  miles 
distant  from  said  Bogg's  plantation;  but  we  now  find  that  a  North 
course  excludes  from  this  Parish  sundry  families  residing  on  Pedee 
River,  who  constantly  attend  divine  service  in  this  Parish,  being 
about  twelve  miles  distant  from  our  Church,  and  at  least  twenty- 
two  miles  from  George-town. " 

("Council  Journal,"  No.  8,  pp.  454-5.) 

"We  therefore  pray  your  Hon"** 

to  relieve  the  Inhabitants  by  ordering  the  dividing  line  to  be  run 
a  straight  course,  which  shall  be  done  on  our  own  proper  Charges. " 
.     .     .     .     The  Petitions  were  ordered  to  lie  on  the  table. 

"Council  Journal"  No.  8,  p.  455. 

These  extracts  from  public  documents  will  show  how  the  two 
parishes  bearing  the  names  of  Princes  instead  of  Saints  were 
established;  in  reading  the  records  it  almost  seems  as  though 
their  un-saintly  names  had  influenced  their  early  career;  but 
what  must  strike  this  generation  with  wonder  is  the  great  im- 
portance they  attached  to  their  churchly  duties,  and  the  long 
journeys  tliey  made  to  attend  Divine  Service,  even  when  minis- 
tered to  by  very  earthly  humans;  their  constant  provision  for  the 
poor  of  the  Parish  must  excite  our  admiration,  in  the  midst  of  much 
which  does  not,  to  say  the  least.  The  present  church  of  Prince 
Frederick  is  situated  near  the  Great  Pee  Dee  River,  (which  runs 
through  North  Carolina  almost  to  the  border  of  Virginia,  under 
the  name  of  Yadkin,  and  takes  it  rise  in  a  spring  at  Blowing  Rock.) 
There  is  a  little  wooden  summer  chapel  in  the  village  of  Planters- 
ville,  where  service  is  held  every  Sunday.  The  parish  was  named 
after  that  Prince  of  Wales,  Frederic,  who  the  father  of  George  III, 
and  son  of  George  II.,  was  himself  never  King;  it  was  after  his 
daughter  the  Princess  Augusta,  that  the  town  of  Augusta,  Georgia, 
was  named. 

The  first  church  building  of  this  parish,  as  far  as  we  know,  was 
built  on  a  high  beauiifuUy  situated  bluff,  overlooking  the  Black 
River,  about  twenty  miles  south-west  of  the  present  building. 
An  expedition  to  the  spot,  to  take  some  photographs  of  it  was 
made  late  in  March.     Nothing  could  have  been  more  beautiful  and 


FOREWORD  Vll 

peaceful  that  this  God's  Acre,  lying  high  above  the  fast-flowing 
river,  shaded  by  stately  water-oaks,  rejoicing  in  their  glistening 
new  foliage,  and  the  white  marble  monuments,  peeping  through 
a  tangle  of  wild  azalea,  dogwood,  and  honeysuckle,  every  open 
space  covered  with  wild  violets,  purple  and  white,  while  the  tiny 
perfect  blossoms  of  the  housetonia  delighted  the  eye  and  spirit, 
for  they  are  simply  little  wild  for-get-me-nots.  The  photos 
were  not  very  successful,  but  were  the  best  that  could  be  made  in 
the  deep  shadows  of  the  sacred  spot.  There  is  no  fence  or  en- 
closure around  the  graveyard  which  must  cover  two  acres  of 
space,  but  there  are  private  brick  enclosures  with  locked  gates, 
and  the  marble  monuments  within  are  well  kept  and  cared  for. 

It  was  in  this  higher  region  that  the  first  settlers  fixed  their 
homes,  for  indigo  grew  wild  around  and  that  was  their  first  farm- 
ing industry.  Fortunes  were  made  rapidly  by  its  cultivation, 
and  we  are  told  that  at  one  time  it  brought  from  four  to  five 
dollars  a  pound.  In  1754  the  amount  of  indigo  shipped  from 
South  Carolina  was  216,924  pounds  (?).  (Ramsay's  History  S.  C, 
vol.  II,  p.  138.)  Its  cultivation  ceased  about  the  close  of  the 
century  or  soon  after.  It  was  then  that  the  settlers  moved  away 
nearer  to  the  coast  and  began  the  cultivation  of  Rice  on  the 
lower  banks  of  the  Pee  Dee  River  and  the  church  on  the  high 
bluff  over-looking  the  short  but  very  deep  Black  River,  was  left 
without  a  congregation.  There  is  no  record  for  many  years,  but 
"In  1827,  Monday  April  9th  at  the  Universal  Church  on  Pee  Dee, 
(a  church  built  by  the  neighbours  of  Pee  Dee  of  all  denominations 
as  a  place  of  worship  for  all  denominations)  to  take  into  consider- 
ation the  best  means  of  erecting  an  Episcopal  church,  between 
Dr.  WiUiam  Allston's  plantation  and  Black  River  Ferry. "  (Ex- 
tract from  the  records  of  vestry  of  Prince  Frederick  Parish  from 
April  1827,  to  March  29th,  1880.)  Apparently  the  vestry  could  not 
agree  on  a  suitable  place  for  the  Church,  for  though  the  money 
was  raised  and  a  building  Committee  appointed,  nothing  was  done. 
The  next  record  is  date  Jany  28th.  1855.  The  Rev'  Hugh  Fraser 
in  the  Chair.  .  .  .  The  following  persons  were  appointed  a 
Building  Committee,  viz,  D.  M'^Dowell,  R.  F.  Allston,  and  Francis 
Weston,  with  power  to  contract  for  and  build  a  church  of  conven- 


Vlll  FOREWORD 

lent  dimensions  on  a  bit  of  land  given  by  the  Rev^  Hugh  Fraser. 
.  .  .  The  following  gentlemen  are  requested  to  act  as  Vestry 
men — viz, 

Capt.  John  AUston, 

Dr  \\:m  AUston, 

Francis  Weston, 

Benj.  F.  Dunkin, 
and  Joel  R.  Poinsett 

As  Wardens, 

R.  F.  W.  Allston, 

D.  M«.  Dowell 

As  delegates  to  the  Convention, 

Rev''.  M.  H.  Lance, 

B.  F.  Dunkin, 

J.  R.  Poinsett. 
The  building  was  completed  the  ensuing  Spring,  and  Service 
held  in  the  Chapel. — The  land  liberally  granted  by  the  Rev^. 
Hugh  Fraser,  together  wth  a  space  of  fifteen  feet  wide  on  his 
North  line  down  to  the  River  with  Public  Landing,  was  surveyed 
by  R.  F.  W.  Allston,  the  grant  recorded,  and  the  Chapel  con- 
secrated by  the  Right  ReV*,  Nathaniel  Bowen,  D.D.  who  also 
preached. — Rev''.  Hugh  Fraser  read  the  sentence  of  Consecration, 
&  the  ReV*.  M.  H.  Lance  read  the  Morning  Prayer,  the  Rev**.  P. 
Trapier  Keith,  and  Rev''.  Alex' Glennie  were  also  present.  .  .  ." 
The  minutes  of  the  Vestry  meetings  continue  without  anything 
of  great  interest,  they  purchased  several  hundred  acres  of  Glebe, 
also  erected  a  comfortable  and  commodious  Winter  parsonage, 
for  the  Rector  of  the  Chapel,  and  also  a  very  comfortable  summer 
parsonage  in  the  little  pine-land  settlement  of  Plantersville,  and 
the  Parish  flourished  but  they  seemed  content  with  the  wooden 
Chapel  until  the  Easter  Meeting  of  1857,  when  we  read,  "The 
want  of  sufficient  accommodation  for  the  congregation  was  then 
di.scussed"  and  it  was  decided  to  erect  a  new  edifice  of  brick, 
suitable  for  the  present  and  future  wants  of  the  Parish."  A  list 
was  opened  and  most  liberal  sums  subscribed.  The  contract 
was  given  to  Mr.  Louis  Barbot,  Architect,  and  is  a  beautiful 
building,  costing  $12,650.  .  .  .  There  were  many  delays; 
the  Contractor  Glenn  died;  the  furnishings  and  finishings  which 


FOREWORD  IX 

were  ordered  abroad,  were  lost  running  the  Blockade,  the  war 
having  been  declared  before  the  building  was  quite  finished,  and 
it  remained  an  unfinished  ruin  almost  until  1876,  when  by  the 
generosity  of  John  Earl  Allston  of  Brooklyn,  N.  Y.,  the  building 
was  repaired  and  completed.  As  soon  as  this  was  accomplished 
the  wooden  Church  built  in  1836  was  moved  to  the  summer  settle- 
ment of  Plantersville  where  it  is  still  used  for  service  every  Sun- 
day by  the  faithful  few,  within  reach,  often  literally  a  scriptural 
quorum. 

The  writer  first  became  interested  in  the  publication  of  these 
records  when  it  became  necessary  to  repair  the  brick  church  which 
had  been  damaged  by  storms  and  was  not  thought  safe,  so  that 
service  had  not  been  held  there  for  a  great  many  years.  Being 
appointed  on  the  Committee  for  raising  funds  for  its  repair,  it 
was  suggested  that  the  publication  of  the  Church  Record  by 
subscription,  would  be  a  means  of  adding  to  the  fund;  this  idea 
was  eagerly  adopted  and  a  long  list  of  people  whose  family  records 
were  in  the  old  manuscript,  which  was  kept  in  a  box  in  the  Bank, 
being  in  a  very  frail  and  tattered  condition,  put  their  names  down 
for  a  volume  at  five  dollars.  Then  came  the  terrible  European 
War,  and  no  money  was  forthcoming,  and  the  publication  had  to 
be  given  up.  It  was  then  that  the  National  Society  of  the  Colonial 
Dames  of  America  came  forward  and  through  its  "Committee 
for  the  Preservation  of  Existing  Records, "  with  great  generosity 
gave  the  whole  amount  needed  for  the  publication  of  the  old 
Register.     To  them  our  heart-felt  thanks  are  offered. 

I  would  also  desire  to  return  thanks  to  M''  S.  A.  Graham  of 
Heineman,  S.  C.  who  gave  me  a  type-written  copy  of  the  Register, 
which  he  had  made  for  his  own  use;  also  my  warm  thanks  to  M'  D. 
E.  Huger  Smith,  of  Charleston,  for  his  great  assistance  in  verifying 
the  copy  with  the  original;  also  to  D'.  Joseph  S.  Ames,  of  Johns 
Hopkins  University,  for  his  most  valuable  aid  in  making  the  index, 
as  well  as  for  his  advice,  and  support  in  the  matter  when  I  was 
cast  down  and  discouraged,  seeing  no  prospect  of  getting  the 
money  to  accomplish  the  work  in  which  I  had  become  so  deeply 
interested.

The  State  of  the  Parish  was  examin'd;  and  but  one  of  the  Church 
Wardens  being  present,  the  PubHc  accounts  could  not  be  audited. 
On  a  Motion  made,  That  this  Parish  is  now  without  an  Incum- 
bent, and  no  Minister  resident  near  at  hand,  to  perform  Eccle- 
siastical Offices,  it  was  moved, 

P*  That  Letters  be  wrote  to  the  Lord  Bishop  of  London,  re- 
questing a  Minister  for  this  Parish 

2dly  That  Letters  sh*^  be  wrote  to  the  Society  for  propagating 
the  Gospel,  to  thank  them  for  past  favours,  to  excuse  our  long 
Silence,  and  to  assign  the  Reasons  tliat  induced  the  late  Vestry, 
to  expel  Mr  Smith  from  this  Cure. 

3dly  That  an  ans''  be  sent  the  Rev*^  Mr  Alex'  Garden,  to  his 
kind  Letter  to  the  late  Vestry  of  March  4th  last,  and  of  thanks 
for  his  judicious  Remarks  and  advices. 

To  which  Motions  the  Vestry  agreed,  &  ordered  the  said  Letters 
to  be  prepared,  and  to  be  read,  considered  off,  and  signed  on  next 
Sunday,  the  Heads  of  which  Letters  being  drawn.

assembled  to  hear  the  Letters  read,  that  they  had  order'd  to  be 
drawn,  &  laid  before  them,  which  they  approved,  and  sign'd:

Black  River  So  Carohna 
May  1st  1756 
My  Lord, 

We  the  Vestry-Men  &  Chh  Wardens  of  the  Parish  of  Prince 
Frederic  in  S°  Carolina,  beg  leave  to  address  Your  Lordship, 
as  our  Diocesan  &  spiritual  Father  in  Christ,  to  acquaint  Your 
Lordship,  That  this  our  Parish  is  now  vacant,  &  destitute  of  a 
Minister,  thro  the  Resignation  and  dismission  of  The  Rev*^  Mr 
Michel  Smith  from  this  Cure.  A  Gentleman  who  has  not  been 
long  resident  with  Us,  but  who  in  that  short  Space  has  rendered 
himself  quite  infamous,  &  obnoxious  to  ev'ry  Individual  almost 
of  this  Country  thro'  his  flagrant  Manners,  and  bad  Conduct: 
for  in  3  Years  (the  Time  he  was  here)  he  has  done  more  Injury 
to  the  cause  of  Virtue,  Religion,  and  the  Church,  than  his  Suc- 
cessors can  repair  in  many;  We  therefore  put  our  Selves  under 


132  THE  REGISTER  BOOK  FOR   THE 

Your  Lordship's  paternal  Care  &  Protection,  desiring  and  hoping, 
that  Your  Lordship  would  be  pleas'd  to  appoint  some  worthy 
good  Clergyman  to  be  our  Pastor,  whom  We  should  be  glad 
to  see  and  receive  as  soon  as  possible.  We  hope  that  Your  Lord- 
ship will  not  take  it  amiss  in  Us  to  observe,  That  this  Parish  is 
the  largest,  and  most  populous  in  this  Province;  Yet  tho'  numer- 
ous in  Inhabitants  We  of  the  Church  are  widely  scatter'd,  and 
but  few  in  number;  The  Parish  oners  being  for  the  most  part  of 
the  Communion  of  the  Church  of  Scotland,  and  Settlers  from 
thence  and  the  North  of  Ireland;  who  have  two  Meetings,  and 
large  Congregations:  so  that  this  Parish  above  all  other  in  this 
Province,  merits  Your  Lordship's  Care  and  thought;  and  requires 
a  diligent,  grave,  &  pious  Minister  to  take  Care  of  the  Interests 
of  the  Church,  which  are  hourly  suffering,  &  will  wholly  sink 
if  not  timely  and  properly  supported;  for  Mr  Smith's  bad  &  irre- 
Ugious  Manners,  has  caus'd  Numbers  to  join  themselves  to  other 
Congregations  or  to  turn  their  Backs  on  the  Church,  and  Divine 
Service;  chusing  rather  to  stay  away,  than  sit  under  the  hearing 
of  a  profligate  Teacher.  Our  Back  Country  is  fill'd  with  Numbers 
who  ne'er  heard  the  Word  of  God  preach 'd,  or  saw  a  Minister 
among  them.  Indeed  Mr  Smith  did  make  a  Tour  into  these 
remote  Parts  of  the  Parish,  But  He  had  better  stay'd  at  home, 
for  the  Consequence  has  been,  that  thro'  his  indiscreet  Carriage. 
(We  sh*^  rather  say  immoral  Conduct)  among  them,  instead  of 
bringing  them  over,  and  joining  of  them  to  the  Communion  of 
our  Church,  he  has  unhappily  driven  them  to  send  for  Anabap- 
tist Teachers  from  Philadelphia,  who  dip  many,  and  form  them 
into  Congregations;  so  that  the  regaining  of  them,  and  making 
them  Members  of  the  Established  Chh  will  (we  judge)  be  attended 
with  great  Pains,  if  not  an  impossibility. 

A  Gentleman  of  Gravity,  Virtue,  &  Prudence,  will  not  fail 
of  reaping  a  plentiful  Harvest  here  both  in  Spirituals  and  Tem- 
porals— We  have  a  neat  Parish  Church,  genteel  Parsonage,  Glebe, 
Cattle,  and  other  Emoluments,  for  accomodation  of  what  judi- 
cious Minister  Your  Lordship  may  send  over;  whose  Salary  will 
be  One  Hundred  Pounds  Sterling  &  upwards  paid  half  yearly 
by  the  Public  Treasurer,  besides  Perquisites,  wc**  may  am*  to 
as  much,  or  more  or  less,  according  to  his  Conduct;  A  Minis- 
ter's Income  here,  depending  much  on  his  Carriage  and  Manners. 


PARISH   PRINCE   FREDERICK   WINYAW  133 

We  shall  only  add,  That  the  adjoining  Parishes  around  Us,  are 
also  destitute  of  Ministers,  so  that  there  is  not  a  Clergyman 
from  Santee  River  to  Cape  Fear,  to  perform  any  Ecclesiastical 
Office,  or  administer  the  Sacraments  on  any  Emergency:  so  that 
We  hope  Your  Lordship  will  take  the  Premises  into  V  religious 
Consideration,  &  grant  our  Request,  who  are  with  y*^  utmost 
Duty  and  Respect 

May  it  please  Y""  Lordship

The  following  is  Copy  of  the  Vestry's  Letter  to  the  Secretary 
of  the  Society  for  propogation  of  the  Gospel  in  Foreign  Parts. 

Black-River  S°  Carolina 
May  1st  1756 
ReV^  Sir! 

The  Augmentation  lately  made  by  the  present  Assembly  of 
this  Province,  to  the  Salaries  of  our  Parochial  Clergy  by  increas- 
ing their  Stipends  from  70£  to  100£  Stg  &  upwards,  p""  Ann; 
and  thereby  freeing  the  Society  from  a  Burden  they  have  long 
born  in  maintaining  Missionaries  among  Us,  will.  We  doubt  not 
meet  with  the  Societys  Approbation  On  this  Occasion  Sir,  We 
take  the  Liberty  to  return  the  Society  our  humble  thanks  for 
their  Care  of  our  Spiritual  Concerns  so  many  Years  past;  And 
this  both  on  behalf  of  our  Selves,  as  well  as  all  other  Inhabitants 
of  this  Parish  Members  of  the  Church  of  England,  who  w*''  grate- 
ful Hearts  will  ever  retain  a  Due  Sense  of  the  The  Societys  many 
singular  &  repeated  favours  shown  Us.  The  last  Missionary 
they  sent  Us  over,  was  The  Rev'^  Michae'  Smith — for  whom  We 
built  a  genteel  House,  and  did  ev'rything  within  our  small  Power 
to  render  his  situation  agreeable,  and  Residence  easy  among  Us. 
He  was  rec'd  here  with  great  Alacrity — shown  uncommon  Marks 
of  Respect;  and  reC^  many  singular  Tokens  of  favour  and  Regard, 


134  THE  REGISTER  BOOK  FOR  THE 

And  as  there  are  (nor  have  been  for  some  Years)  no  resident  Min- 
ister in  two  or  three  Parishes  adjoining  Us,  He  might  have  com- 
manded a  very  plentiful  income,  nay,  aflSuent  Fortune,  (beyond 
any  Country  Clerg\TTian  in  this  Province)  had  his  Will  been 
equal  to  his  Power,  and  Virtue  as  shining  as  his  Abihties,  But 
unhappily  for  Him  and  for  Us  'tis  with  great  Concern  We  are 
obhged  to  say  that  this  Gent""^  Manners  have  been  so  flagitious 
his  Conduct  so  unhappy  and  imprudent,  both  in  Spirituals  and 
Temporals,  as  to  subject  Him  to  the  Public  Censure  and  Odium 
of  this  Whole  Province,  and  thereby  reducing  Himself  to  the 
Necessity  of  resignmg  this  Mission,  and  leaving  this  Province, 
and  thereby  forcing  Us  on  the  disagreeable  Measure  of  dismissing 
of  Him  from  this  Cure,  to  which  He  never  was,  or  could  hope  to 
be  elected,  from  having  shewn  himself  more  fit  to  pull  down  and 
destroy,  then  to  build  up  the  Church  of  Christ. 

Our  long  Silence  may  be  interpreted  remissness,  or  judg'd 
Ingratitude  by  the  Society;  but  it  has  been  owing  to  this  Cause 
viz*.  We  were  willing  to  pass  over  M""  Smith's  Irregularities, 
and  even  (for  a  long  while)  winked  at  His  Errors,  and  cover 'd 
his  failings,  in  hope,  that  Time,  Experience,  and  Admonition 
might  reclaim  Him,  and  all  His  Miscarriages  be  obliterated  and 
forgot — being  inclined  from  Charity  and  regard  to  his  function 
to  impute  his  faults,  rather  to  Levity,  Indiscretion,  and  Human 
Infirmity,  than  to  a  bad,  or  a  corrupt  Heart:  We  delayed  there- 
fore laying  Our  Spiritual  Concerns  before  the  Society,  till  We 
saw  the  Effect  of  our  friendly  Counsels  and  forbearance,  and 
M'hat  We  could  consistent  w*^^  Justice,  Truth,  &  Our  Duty,  pro- 
nounce of  this  Genf"  — Sorry  are  We  to  say,  that  so  far  from 
reforming  of  His  Conduct,  and  suiting  it  to  the  Dignity  of  His 
Profession,  and  the  Maxims  of  Right  Reason  (We  might  add,  of 
Common  Sense)  That  He  seemed  to  run  counter  to  both,  tramp- 
ling on  all  Rules,  and  despising  all  Advice;  He  has  oft  left  his 
flock  without  Notice,  Necessity,  or  Our  Consent;  so  that  our 
Church  has  been  frequently  shut  up,  even  for  3  Months  to- 
gether, without  his  taking  of  the  least  thought  or  Care,  ab*  get- 
ting of  it  supply 'd  in  his  Absence,  And  in  one  of  His  late  Rambles 
into  the  North  Province,  He  bro*  home  with  Him  a  Woman, 
whom  he  lives  with  and  calls  his  Wife;  tho'  in  our  strictest  Ex- 


PARISH   PRINCE   FREDERICK   WINYAW  135 

amination  of  Him  on  this  liead,  he  could  produce  no  Witness  or 
Vouchers  of  y^  Celebration  of  his  Marriage  with  Her;  so  that  We 
have  cause  to  apprehend  that  if  he  is  contracted,  it  must  be  agree- 
able to  some  assertions  He  has  made  in  Public  Company,  viz* 
"That  it  was  in  his  Power  as  a  Priest,  to  marry  himself  to  any 
Woman  whatever,  without  the  Intervention  of  a  Third  Person." 
Nor  has  He  as  yet  realiz'd  his  Marriage,  or  given  the  Public  any 
satisfaction  in  Relation  to  it,  further,  than  by  publishing  the 
Bans  of  Marriage  between  Him,  and  this  Woman  one  Sunday  in 
the  Church  But  as  We  are  inform'd  That  Mr  Smith  has  said, 
"That  the  Society  shew  so  little  Regard  to  what  may  be  urged 
by  the  Laity  ag^*  any  of  their  Missionaries,  as  to  credit  the  Asser-

the  dismission  of  Mr  Smith  from  this  Cure;  but  the  latter  part

of  the  said  House: 

Resolved.     That  the  Vestry  meet  as  next  Tuesday,  to  take  under

PARISH   PRINCE   FREDERICK  M^INYAW  137 

Ordered  That  the  Church  Wardens  wait  on  Mr  Smith,  to  examine 
further  into  this  strange  affair.

Mr  Anth°  White  reported,  that  He  had  seen  and  spoken  with 
Mr  McCarty,  who  declared  that  Mr  Smith  had  never  paid  Him 
for  any  Sashes,  nor  had  he  e'er  received  a  farthing  from  Him  on 
such  ace*  The  Ch''  Wardens  reported  That  they  had  waited  on 
Mr  Smith,  and  on  sifting  of  Him,  ab*  Matters,  had  great  Ground 
to  conclude  that  there  was  some  Collusion,  or  deception,  for 
some  iniquitous  Scheme  concerted  between  Mr  Smith  and  Mr 
McCarty, 

A  Letter  from  the  ReV^  Mr  Smith  was  presented  to  the  Vestry, 
relating  in  loose  &  general  Terms,  y*"  heads  of  accompts,  between 
Him  and  Mr  McCarty,  w*  giving  no  satisfaction,  the  Vestry 
waited  on  Mr  Smith  in  a  Body  to  enquire  further  Particulars, 

After  a  strict  Scrutiny,  they  found  the  Chh  Wardens  sur- 
mises to  be  well  founded,  and  that  those  accompts  &  rec*^  of  Mr 
McCarty  w^^'*  Mr  Smith  produced,  and  asserted  he  had  paid,  were 
false,  and  fallacious;  formed  only  to  counterbalance  otlier  like 
fictitious  acc*^  bro*  by  Mr  Smith  ag'^*  McCarty  in  consequence 
of  a  Quarrel  between  them.  Mr  Smith  hav^  also  bro*  a  Bill  of  19£ 
for  Work  done  to  the  Stable  &c.  The  same  was  deny'd  Paym* 
He  havs  had  30£  given  Him  by  y""  former  Vestry  (arising  from 
Sale  of  the  Materials  of  y""  Old  Parsonage  House)  to  discharge 
the  said  Bill.

The  Vestry  being  informed  That  Mr  Smith  intended  to  send 
Mr  Mac  Cartys  Bill  &  Rec*  home  to  the  Society  and  thereby  to 
impose  on  their  kindness,  directed  Mr  Charles  Woodmason  to 
add  a  Postscript  to  their  former  Letters,  to  this  Effect,  which 
was  done  accordingly, 

Black  River  Ch'^  May  4th  1756 

Rev*^  Sir!  Postscript. 

The  Vestry  having  reed  Letters  from  y^  Rev'^  Mr  Smith 
affirming,  "That  he  had  been  arrested  by  y^  Carpenter  who  Built 
"y^  Parsonage  House,  for  the  Sashes  of  the  said  House,  and  de- 
"siring  reimbursement"  they  could  not  but  be  surpris'd  at  the 
Contents,  as  the  s"^  Carpenter  had  been  paid  One  Thousand 
Pounds  of  this  Curc^  for  building  of  y*'  said  House,  Sashes,  Closets, 
Beaufets,  and  all  Conveniences  included.  They  therefore  sent 
to  the  said  Carpenter,  whose  answer  was,  "That  he  had  never 

"rec*'  a  penny  from  Mr  Smith  on   any  such  acc*^" They 

therefore  waited  in  a  Body  on  Mr  Smith  to  examine  into  y'' 
grounds  of  his  Allegations;  That  he  shewed  a  Bill  and  Rec*  of 
this  Maccarty's,  the  Carpenter,  for  these  Sashes;  But  on  Scrutiniz- 
ing into  y®  Validity  of  such  Bill  and  Rec*,  They  found  it  a  contrived 
Affair  of  this  M'^Cartys  to  counterbalance  a  like  fictitious  ace* 
bro*  by  the  s^  Mr  Smith  ag^*  y'^  s*^  MacCarty,  neither  of  w''*'  ace*" 
had  any  foundation  (as  we  could  find)  but  only  in  Anger  &  Re- 
sentment; and  to  occasion  quarrels  and  Contention.  After 
expostulating  with  Mr  Smith  on  his  daring  to  endeavour  to  saddle 
y^  Parish  w"'  such  an  open  &  barefaced  fraudulent  Ace*,  his  reply 
was,  "That  He  made  himself  very  easy  ab*  the  Matter,  for  if 
"We  did  not  allow  it  Him,  y'^  Society  would,  and  that  He  should 
"send  it  home  to  them."  To  prevent  therefore  Sir,  the  Good- 
nature &  Kindness  of  the  Society's  being  imposed  on  in  this 
Manner,  (sh*^  Mr  Smith  attempt)  We  here  declare,  that  he  never 
paid  such  Money,  That  y''  s'*  M'^Carty  had  been  before  paid  for 
these  Sashes,  and  why  this  M^Carty  arrested  Him  We  find  on 
inquiring  to  be  owing  to  this  "that  Mr  Smith  being  impatient 
"to  get  into  the  New  House,  broke  it  open,  before  finished,  and  also 
"broke  open  a  Room  in  w'=^  this  M'^Carty  had  locked  up  these 
"Sashes."  That  after  this  act  of  Indiscretion,  Mr  Smith  em- 
"ployed  another  Workman  to  put  up  these  Sashes,  and  finish 


PARISH   PRINCE   FREDERICK   WIN  YAW  139 

"the  House,  unknown  to  this  M^'Carty,  &  the  Vestry.  "That  this 
"M^Carty,  &  Mr  Smith  falling  out  on  this  Head,  they  reciprocally 
"arrested  each  other  by  Way  of  Insult,  Mr  Smith  bringing  a  fal- 
"lacious  ace*  of  Diet,  lodging  &c.,  agst  M'^Carty,  and  y®  other 
"opposing  this  trumped  up  ace*  by  another  ace*  of  like  nature, 
"in  w=^  a  Charge  was  made  of  these  Sashes."  But  had  Mr  Smith 
really  paid  the  Man  for  these  Sashes,  We  should  immediately 
have  made  Him  repaid  Mr  Smith  with  Costs,  and  this  We  told 
Him.  But  Mr  Smith  not  offering  to  make  this  appear  (indeed 
it  could  not  be)  We  judged  it  necessary  to  give  the  Society  this 
information,  to  be  on  their  guard  ag^*  any  indirect  Steps  Mr  Smith 
may  take  to  impose  on  them. 

After  which  they  directed  the  Church  Wardens  to  write  to  Mr 
MacCarty,  in  these  or  like  words. 

Sir 

The  Vestry  having  this  Day  reed  Letf  from  Mr  Smith,  with 
an  ace*  of  Yours  ag^*  Him  for  the  Sashes  of  the  Parsonage  House, 
they  waited  in  a  Body  on  Mr  Smith  to  enquire  into  y*^  Grounds 
of  such  an  extraordinary  Charge:  and  on  Examination  find  it 
to  be  only  the  Issue  of  a  Quarrel  between  You,  and  that  You  had 
trumpted  up  a  Charge  of  this  Nature  ag**  Him  to  oppose  a  like 
fallacious  ace*  bro*  by  him  ag^*  You,  in  order  to  pay  Him  in  his 
own  Coin.  However  y^  Vestry  could  not  but  be  amazed  That  You 
could  take  so  extraordinary  a  Step  as  this;  and  while  they  were  at  the 
Parsonage  House,  took  Notice,  that  there  still  remains  sev'  Matters 
unfinished,  w<=''  by  your  Contract  You  are  bound  to  do;  And  there- 
fore They  have  enjoined  Us  to  address  You  hereon,  to  desire  You 
to  repair  to  the  Parsonage,  and  finish  off  whats  remaining  to 
do  there,  within  one  Month  from  this  date,  otherwise  they  will 
be  forced  to  fall  on  Measures  to  oblige  You,  as  will  not  be  agree- 
able. The  Vestry  waits  Your  Speedy  Answer  for  whom  we  are

Curr^  Parochial  Money,  in  his  hands,  ordering  the  Same  to  be 

reC^  by  and  paid  to  the  present  Wardens

were  on  their  Passage  for  this  Parish,  here  to  be  lodg'd,  main- 

tain'd,  &  accomodated,  till  otherwise  provided  for. 

The  Vestry  came  to  a  Conclusion,  That  the  Chh  Wardens  lodge 

the  said  Acadians  in  the  Parsonage  House:  But  wav'd  entering 

on  the  principal  Subject  Matter,  viz*  providing  Victuals  &  Neces- 

sarys  for  their  Reception. 

The  Church  Wardens  insisted  warmly  to  have  this  Point  fully 

settled  &  determin'd — But  the  Vestry  treated  the  Aifair  so  slightly 

as  to  tell  the  Chh  Wardens,  They  might  do  the  best  they  pleased 

in  the  Matter,  and  refus'd  taking  the  least  Charge  or  Care  of  the 

said  Acadians;  and  proceeded  in  taking  a  View  of  the  present 

ruinous  State  of  the  Parish  Church;  and  then  broke  up,  after 

naming  Monday  Three  Weeks  to  meet  again,  to  consult  further 

about  repairing  of  the  Church.

The  present  decay'd  Condition  of  the  Parish  Church  was  taken

Resolv'd,  That  the  Parish  Church  is  in  a  very  decay'd  State  & 
must  of  necessity  be  repair'd  immediately,  to  prevent  its  falling. 
That  the  Parochial  Money  in  Hands  of  the  present  Wardens

be  apply'd  tow'^  the  Repair. 

That  the  late  Incumbent  Mr  Mich'  Smith  hav^  defrauded  the

Order'd,  That  Col  John  White,  and  Mr  Anth°  White  be  a  Commit- 
te  for  employing  some  Workman  to  take  a  Survey  of  the  Build- 
mg,  &  to  lay  their  Report  before  the  next  Vestry. 
That  y^  s^  Committe  draw  up  an  Estimate  of  y**  Charges  &  Cost

And  that  they  contract  with  some  reputable  Workmen  and  pro- 
ceed in  the  Business,  as  far  as  the  Parish  Money  will  allow,  & 
what  Contributions  they  can  collect. 

That  information  hav^  been  rec"^  of  some  Movables  of  the  Rev'^

Wardens  do  attach  the  same,  according  to  Law  provided  the 
Expence  be  under  the  Value  of  the  said  Goods.  And  then  the 
Vestry  separated  without  doing  further 

up,   occasion 'd    by  the  Absence  &  Negligence    of    their  late 

,  and  want  of  the  Parish  Books  &  Papers. 

At  a  Vestry  held  in  the  Parish  Chh  of  Black  River,  on 

The  Rev''  Mr  W'"  Peasely  appear 'd,  and  offered  to  serve  this 
Cure  till  arrival  of  a  Minister  from  England, 
But  the  said  Gentlemen's  Character  being  tainted;  and  Vestry 
of  St  Helena  havg  dismiss'd  Him  from  that  Parish  for  Irregu- 
larities, a  Debate  arose  concerning  the  Admission  of  the  said 
Gentleman,  who  produc'd  the  following  Letter,  of  Recommen- 
dation from  Capt  Richardson  one  of  the  Representatives  of  this 
Parish  in  the  General  Assembly,  [letter  does  not  appear  in  Minutes] 

And    then   Mr   Peasely   laid   before   the   Vestry by 

the  ReV^  Richard  Clarke,  of  Charlestown,  to  a  gentleman  of 
the  Vestry  of  St  Plelena,  in  answer  to  one  which  Mr  Clarke  had 
reC'  from  Him,  subsequent  to  a  Letf  of  Mr  Clarke's  to  know 
the  Imputations  alledged  ag^*  Mr  Peasely,  and  their  Reasons 
for  dismissing  of  Him,  for  Satisfaction  of  the  Provincial  Clergy 
of  which  the  following  is  a  Copy,  [this  letter  also  does  not  appear] 
And  Col  John  White  being  going  for  Charlestown,  was  desir'd 
to  wait  on  M""  Clarke,  and  to  obtain  from  Him  a  Copy  of  the 
Letter  he  had  rec^  from  the  Vestry  of  Port  Royal,  in  ans''  to  that 
wrote  them  by  Him,  in  Name  of  the  Clergy,  But  Col  White  did

PARISH   PRINCE   FREDERICK   WINYAW  145 

The  Vestry  not  being  conven'd  hereon  (Easter  being  near)  M"^ 
Peasely  Officiated  at  the  Church  by  desire  of  two  or  three  of 
the  Vestry  Men,  against  the  Consent  and  Opinion  of  the  Church 
Wardens,  and  some  Members  of  the  Vestry. 


March  1.  The  Church  Wardens  apprentic'd  out  Shadrack  Mac- 
Cormack  a  Poor  Boy  abt  7  Years  of  Age,  to  John  Simpson  Cooper, 
on  Jeffrey's  Creek,  till  the  s''  Boy  came  of  Age. 


On  Easter  Monday  April  11*'',  1757,  the  Vestry  met,  and  pro- 
ceeded to  Election  of  Church  Officers  for  the  present  Year. 
The  Church  Wardens  proceeded  by  Ballot,  to  take  y^  Suffrages 
of  the  Parishioners : 

Four  Persons  that  gave  in  Votes,  viz*  John  Walker,  Eben  Dun- 
can, Ja^  Hepburn,  and  Alex""  Davidson,  being  objected  too,  as 
not  conforming  to  the  Chh  of  England,  &  qualified  according 
to  Law: 

It  was  put  to  the  Vote  of  the  Assembly  then  present,  if  the  said 
Persons  are  legally  qualify'd  to  Vote, 

And  the  Public  Laws  being  produc'd  and  read: 
A  Debate  arose  among  the  Parishioners,  thereon. 
And  the  said  Persons,  tendering  their  Votes,  &  insisting  on  their 
Qualifications,  as  Freeholders,  and  hav^  serv'd  Parochial  Offices, 
the  Church  Wardens  (to  silence  the  Clamour)  accepted  of  their 
Votes. 

But  a  Scrutiny  being  demanded,  and  an  appeal  to  Higher  Powers 
threatened,  the  Church  Wardens  would  not  reckon  in  the  Votes 
of  the  Persons  Objected  too,  but  marked  them  off. 

And  on  casting  up  the  legal  Votes,  they  stood  thus.

The  present  State  of  the  Parish  Chh  was  taken  under  Considera- 
tion and  on  a  Survey  of  Repairs  lately  made  and  necessary  to 
be  executed  It  was  Resolv'd 

That  the  Work  lately  done  to  the  repairs  of  the  Church  being 
very  imperfect,  and  insufficient;  An  Absolute  Necessity  arises, 
that  the  said  Work  be  examinjed  by  some  skilful  Workmen,  and 
be  more  substantially  ececuted. 

That  a  Committe  be  appointed  to  Contract  w*""  proper  Work- 
men, for  the  finishing  of  the  Church,  and  putting  of  it  into  good 
Repair,  as  far  as  the  Parochial  Money  will  go.  And  the  Per- 
sons so  Constituted,  were, 

Mr  Ja*  Mcpherson  and 

Mr  James  Lane 

Ordered,  That  They  Shingle,  Sash,  Weather  board,  &  put  the 
Church  into  y*  best  Repair  possible,  as  far  as  the  Parochial  Money 
now  in  Hands  of  the  Ch''  wdn^'/will  admit;  and  to  the  best  of  their 
judgment.  Which  Money  amounts  to  100 

And  M''  Rob*  Weaver  having  been  apply'd  too  by  the  late  Church 
Wardens,  to  Survey  the  Work  done  to  the  Church  by  order  of 
the  Committe  appointed  in  Vestry  y®  23^  Aug**  last 
The  following  Ans''  was  rec<^  from  Him — 

To  the  Vestry  and  Church  Wardens  of  Prince  Frederic  Parish, 
At  the  desire  of  James  Crockat  one  of  the  Church  Wardens,  I 
have  carefully  examin'd  the  Repairs  of  Your  Parish  Church, 
and  find  them  so  insufficient,  both  with  regard  to  the  Workman- 
ship, and  part  of  the  Timber,  that  I  think  it  will  be  a  manifest 
Imposition  on  the  Public  if  either  the  Workman  is  paid  or  the 
Church,  cover'd  up  in  its  present  Situation  for  I  am  clearly  of 
Opinion  should  the  Church  be  cover'd  as  it  is  now,  it  is  in  dan- 
ger of  suffering  by  Hurricanes,  or  any  violent  Gusts  of  Winds 
from

Person,  an  Object  of  Charity,  and  incapable  of  Labour  hav^  lost

At  the  same  time  Will""  Mitchell,  a  Parish  Pauper,  was  taken 
by  William  Mcdonald,  to  be  boarded  by  Him  for  one  Year,  from 
this  Easter  Monday  at  y^  rate  of  £80,  per  ann — Gloathing  ex-

M''  George  Atkinson  late  Register,  deliver'd  up  the  Parish  Books, 
w*  on  Examination,  found  to  have  no  Entries  made  in  it  of  Mar- 
riages, Burials,  and  Baptisms,  for  3  Years  past, 
I  Geo.  Atkinson  Register  of  the  Parish  of  Prince  Frederick  for 
the  y""  1756  am  Register 'd  as  above  for  not  Registering  Ghildren

At  a  Vestry  held  in  the  Parish  Ghurch  of  P.  Frederic  on  Wed- 
nesday the  18  May  1757 

The  Want  of  a  Worthy  Minister  for  this  Parish  being  very  great, 
and  no  Ans'^  being  rec^  either  from  the  Bishop  of  London,  or 
the  Society,  to  the  Letters  wrote  them,  for  a  Successor  to  the 
Rev^  Mr  Smith 

And  it  being  reported,  that  the  Rev*^  M""  Andrews  had  de- 
clin'd  the  Lectureship  of  St  Philip's,  and  intended  to  embark 
for  England  by  some  safe  Opportunity: 

And  it  being  further  hinted  to  some  of  the  Vestry,  that  M""  An- 
drews's departure  would  not  immediately  take  place: 
It  was  Resolved  to  address  M''  Andrews  to  supply  this  vacant 
Parish  during  his  Stay  in  Garolina,  or  to  accept  of  the  Gure  of 
the  Parish  in  Gase  his  Inclinations  should  induce  Him  wholly 
to  settle  in  the  Province. 

And  the  Register  being  order 'd  to  draw  up  a  Letter,  He  immedi- 
ately withdrew,  and  presented  the  following,  which  being  read, 
was  approved  off,  and  signed  by  the  Gentlemen  then  present. 


150  THE  REGISTER   BOOK  FOR  THE 

Black  River  Church  18  May  1757 

Rev<i  Sir. 
The  Occasion  of  this  address,  arises  from  a  Rumour  which 
reach'd  Us,  Viz*  That  You  are  about  resigning  of  the  Lecture- 
ship of  St  Philip's  and  retiring  from  Charlestown,  till  some  safe 
and  favourable  Opportunity  presents  to  carry  Your  family  to 
England.  We  should  be  pleased  to  find  this  Report  verify'd 
shou'd  its  Issue  terminate  in  Winyaii's  being  made  Your  Resi- 
dence. 

The  amiableness  of  Your  Character  As  a  Minister  and  Christian 
strict  Morals  and  Integrity  of  Manners  in  private  Life  as  a  Gen- 
tleman would  alone  excite  in  Us  (and  all  here  who  Love  Religion 
and  Learning)  such  pleasing  and  agreeable  Desires:  But  when 
We  reflect  on  our  late  and  present  unhappy  fate  as  to  Spirituals, 
and  the  reduced  State  of  the  Church  in  this  Quarter,  these  Wishes 
are  higher  rais'd,  and  prompt  Us  to  perfect  their  Attainment. 

Permit  Us  then  Sir  to  realize  our  Sentiments  of  You,  by  giv- 
ing You  this  Call  and  Invitation,  That  should  You  quit  Charles- 
town,  and  Y''  Affairs  incline  You  to  a  Country  Retreat,  That 
You'd  be  pleas'd  to  favour  Us  with  Your  Company  and  to  ac- 
cept of  this  vacant  Parish  of  Prince  Frederic  where  We  are  ready 
to  receive  and  establish  You  as  our  minister,  whenever  You  please. 

For  We  have  not  a  Clergyman  within  fifty  miles  to  perform 
any  Ecclesiastical  Offices  in  any  Emergency,  and  how  long  We 
may  rest  thus  unprovided,  is  uncertain  (We  having  not  yet  had 
any  answer  from  home  to  our  Letters  wrote  15  Months  ago  for 
a  Minister)  but  would  rather  chuse  to  remain  thus  destitute  and 
unhappy,  than  accept  of  obnoxious  Persons,  who  disgrace  the 
sacred  Character  and  bring  Religion  and  the  Church  into  Con- 
tempt. Wherefore  after  looking  up  to  Heaven  for  Divine  Aid, 
We  turn  our  Eyes  Sir  on  You,  to  heal  the  Wounds,  the  Stabs 
that  Vertue  and  Goodness  has  sustained  here  within  few  Years. 
We  want  a  Person  of  exemplary  Life,  prudent  Conduct,  and  un- 
corrupt  Morals,  to  apply  the  Balms  of  Example  and  Precept  to 
pierc'd  and  broken  Souls:  to  be  an  Ornament  to  Religion,  Sup- 
port to  our  bleeding  weaken'd  Church  and  a  Blessing  to  Civil 
Society:  In  this  Light  Sir  We  regard  You  from  the  Enconiums 
and  Eccho's  of  the  Public,  and  the  testimonies  of  private  friends. 


PARISH   PRINCE    FREDERICK   WIN  YAW  151 

And  should  You  Approve  of  this  Invitation  and  obh'ge  Us  with 
Your  Presence,  and  Ministry,  We  shall  be  careful  to  confirm 
the  reality  of  these  Conceptions,  by  striving  to  support  You 
genteely,  and  to  make  Your  Residence  among  us,  as  easy  and 
agreeable  as  Possible. 

Our  late  incumbent  acknowledg'd  his  Income  to  be  near  1500£ 
pr  Ann  but  We  cannot  Warrant  his  Assertions,  nor  enter  into 
any  Particular  Engagements  As  this  Parish  is  very  extended, 
so  also  may  be  the  Rectors  Emoluments  They  partly  depending 
on  remote  Persons  and  Accidents:  For  the  Parish  Church  and 
Parsonage  (which  are  both  neat  and  pretty)  being  situated  on 
the  lower  Verge  of  this  Parish,  will  occasion  require  more  Time 
and  Travel  for  Minister  and  People  to  be  thoroughly  acquainted, 
than  if  built  more  Central. 

These  our  tenders  of  Respect,  are  accompanied  with  our  best 
Wishes  for  Your  Health,  and  that  You  may  long  live  among  us 
to  adorn  Religion,  and  build  up  Living  Temples  to  the  Glory 
of  H  I  M,  whose  peculiar  Servant  You  are,  and  whose  Service 
is  Your  Honour  and  Delight  We  are  with  due  Esteem

obliged  to  You  for  Your  kind  Way  of  thinking  concerning  Me. 
The  partiality  of  my  friends  hath  given  me  a  Character  much

Letter  to  the  Bishop)  was  sent  to  M''  Andrews  by  the  Register. 

Black  River  28  June  1757 

Rev^  Sir 
The  Distance  at  w'^*'  sev'  Members  of  our  Vestry  reside  from 
the  Church  and  each  other,  rendering  it  impossible  for  them  to 
convene  in  Time  to  answer  Your  obliging  fav'  of  the  14th  inst, 
I  take  upon  Me  in  Name  of  the  Body  to  write  You. 

"That  they  take  extremely  Kind  Your  offers  of  Assistance 
to  procure  them  a  Minister;  which  Xtian  Task  they  entreat 
you  to  engage  in  immediately  on  Your  Arrival  in  Engla"'^:  What- 
ever Gentleman  may  come  over  with  only  3  Lines  from  You, 
will  be  accepted  here,  as  next  to  Choice  of  Y""  Self,  they  would 
approve  of  Your  Choice" 

"That  they  need  not  trouble  You  with  a  Portrait  of  a  Minis- 
ter that  would  suit  here,  as  Your  better  Judgment  and  Experi- 
ence will  paint  the  requisite  Qualities,  and  their  Sentiments  may 
be  gather'd  from  their  late  Letter  to  You. 

But  if  that  You  sh^  rather  chuse  to  persue  the  Old  Tracts  (which 
as  to  this  Parish  have  been  very  crooked)  they  enclose  a  Letter 
to  his  Lordship  of  London,  which  they  beg  Your  Care  off,  (and 
sh**  it  suit,  and  be  not  too  much  Trouble)  to  deliver  with  y""  ov^ti 
hands. 

"And  that  You  would  be  pleased  to  quicken  his  Lordships 
Motions  in  our  favour,  by  remonstrating, 

"That  our  Parish  Church,  Parsonage  &  Glebe  is  daily  falling 
to  Ruin  by  being  unoccupied. 


PARISH   PRINCE   FREDERICK   WINYAW  153 

"That  there  are  now  4  Meeting  Houses  in  this  Parish,  and 
two  more  talked  of  being  built,  {w^  Increase  would  not  have  been 
thro'  Weakness,  Supineness,  &  Immorality  of  our  Incumbents) 
Whereas,  had  we  Godly  Ministers,  Chapels  of  Ease  would  prob- 
ably be  raised  in  their  places,  and  less  Room  for  the  Sectaries 
to  spread  themselves. 

"That  the  People  of  the  Lower  Part  of  our  Parish,  are  a  sober, 
sensible  &  literate  People,  those  of  the  upper  Part,  far  other- 
wise; whose  Numbers  daily  increase  by  Refugees  from  y°  other 
Provinces 

"That  if  a  Minister  be  not  settled  here  soon,  the  defection  from 
the  Church  will  be  so  great,  as  hardly  to  leave  enough  Church 
Members  to  form  a  Congregation. 

"That  Itinerant  Teachers  from  the  N°  ard,  are  Yearly  making 
of  Converts  that  illiterate  Persons  set  up  for  Pastors  That  the 
Presbyterian  Missionaries  from  the  Northern  Colleges,  use  un- 
wearied pains  &  Diligence  to  extend  their  Influence  &  Interest, 
to  the  hazard  of  this  whole  Parish  being  soon  entirely  in  their 
Hands. 

"That  this  Prospect  grieves  every  true  Son  &  Well-wisher 
to  the  Church  of  England,  while  our  Establish'd  Clergy  calmly 
look  on.  But  that  our  Assembly,  Alarm'd  at  our  Situation,  has 
lately  divided  this  extensive  Parish,  taking  a  New  one  out  of  it, 
to  be  called  by  the  Name  of  St  Mark  alloting  also  100£  stg,  pr 
ann  for  an  Itinerant  Minister  to  officiate  at  the  Waterees,  & 
y  Catawba  Settlem*  So  that  we  want  3  INiinisters  Sir  at  present, 
in  this  one  Parish  only. 

I  conclude  in  their  Names,  to  wish  You  a  quick  safe  and  pleas- 
ant Passage  that  You  may  find  &  enjoy  the  establish'd  Health 
You  seek  after,  and  be  blessed  with  all  temporal  and  Eternal

have  had  Reason  to  think  Doe  not  Seek  y®  pease  of  y*"  Parish  may 
endeavor  at  Easter  next  to  Set  aside  this  our  Gaull  of  M''  Peasely,

ing Vestry  Can  Repeal  any  Lawfull  Act  of  Y**  preceeding  and  if 
they  Can  what  Steps  may  be  Prop""  for  Us  to  take,  to  prevent  their 
Makeing  Void  this  Our  Act,  in  Mr  Peasely  Favou''  Who  Wee  hope 
by  His  Good  Behaviour,  May  Remove  ye  Preajudices  that  Sum 
Persons,  have  against  him  and  Reconcile  y^  Contending  Parties 
of  our  Miserably  Divided  Parish.  Some  of  Us  seem  to  think  that 
an  Application  to  His  Excellency  as  Ordinary  of  ye  Province,  and 
to  the  Church  Commissn''^  may  be  necessary  But  Wee  Shall  Defer

May  it  please  Your  Lordship 

For  the  Spring  of  1757  Wee  Laid  before  y'  Lord  Ship  the  State 
of  Religion  &  of  the  Church  of  England  inn  this  Quarter,  Together 
With  our  Want  of  a  Minister.  And  Y''  Lord  Ship  from  y""  paternal 
Care  of  this  Distant  Unknown  Part  of  y""  Diocess,  was  pleased  to 
Note  our  Representation's  and  Releive  our  Spiritual  Necessities 
by  Recommending  this  Cure  to  the  Revern-i  M-"  Cooper:  whome 
My  Lord  Wee  have  not  the  Happiness  to  Enjoy  For  on  his  Arival 
in  this  Province,  Finding  that  the  State  of  things  in  this  Parish 
were  now  Greatly  Different  From  What  We  Reported  to  y''  Lord- 
Ship.  He  therefore  declin'd  this  Parish,  And  Accepted  that  of 
Prince  William,  Vacant  by  the  Death  of  Mr  Lewis,  We  Must  own 
My  Lord,  that  the  temporal  State  of  this  Parish  is  now  on  a  deffor'nt 
foot.  And  Greatly  Reduced  within  these  Three  Years,  and  on 
these  acc*^  1^*  Our  Assembly  Wisely  Considring  the  Great  Extent 
of  the  Parish  and  the  heavy  w^*  on  the  Shoulders  of  the  Incum- 
bent; have  Erected  the  Upper  Part  into  a  Seperate  Parish,  Now 
known  by  the  Name  of  S*  Mark,  who  as  yet  are  Unprovided  with 
a  Minisf. 

2d'y  to  Lessen  the  Duety  of  the  Ministers  of  this  and  of  Prince 
George  Parish,  the  Assembly  have  appointed  two  Itiner'"*  INIinistr" 
to  Visit  the  Back  Country.     3^'^  The  Adjacent  Parishe's  of  Prince 


160  THE  REGISTER  BOOK  FOR  THE 

George  &  S*  James'^  have  Since  that  thime  Been  Filled,  Whereby 
the  large  Harvess  of  Fees  be  Report*^  by  our  Late  Incumbent,  Mr 
Smith  is  Curtailed  So  that  at  Present  the  Utmost  Any  Gen*  Can 
hope  to  Raise  here  will  not  Amo*  to  More  than  one  hundred  & 
Eighty  pounds  pr  annum.  Our  Chh  &  Parson'^  is  in  Good  Order, 
But  the  Parochial  Cattle  &  Other  Effects  are  Dispersed,  and  Lost 
through  Want  of  a  Resident  Minister  to  Look  to  them.  From 
this  Contraction  of  our  Parish,  which  is  Reduced  to  name  Limits 
and  from  the  Removal  &  Death's  of  Many  of  our  Church  Mem- 
ber's, Our  Congregation  Now  Consists  but  of  Very  Few  &  Those 
Widely  Scatter'd  or  Distant  from  the  Church,  9  prctm  of  our 
Inhabitants  being  of  of  the  Chh  of  Scotland.  Yet, hope  WeeThatif 
a  Worthy  Good  Man  Such  another  as  Mr  Cooper,  who  had  the 
Good  of  Souls  and  the  Chh  at  heart.  Was  Settld  Among  Us  that 
our  Congregation  Would  Annually  Increase,  and  the  Church  of 
England  recover  from  y"  Languishing  State  it  is  Now  Fallen  into 
among  Us.  The  Want  of  Such  a  Sensable  Exemplary  Paster  here 
is  possible  by  y''  Decay  of  Relig'on  and  Morals,  and  the  Daily 
Poversion  of  Numbers  of  the  Ignorant  Commonalety  from  the 
Church  by  the  Subtle  Deceptions  of  Many  itinerant  Anabpt^ 
and  other  Teachers  Sent  in  annually  Progresses  this  way  from 
Pennsylwaina,  the  Den  of  the  American  Hydra  of  Schism,  and 
Enthusiasm  Wee Supply  our  Selves  with  an  Ejected  Offici- 
ating Minisf  whose  Caracf  has  unhappily  Sufferd  throe  the 
Noxious  Blast  of  Calumny,  but  are  fearful  of  giveing  Offence  to 
y"'  r  gid  Presbyterians  Around  Us  As  they  might  make  this  a 
Plea  for  Continuance  of  a  Seperation  &  to  open  wide  y''  Rents  of 
Religion  the  Shed'y  of  Every  Good  Man,  to  Close  therefore  we 
Chuse,  to  wave,  our  Private  Concernes  for  the  Create  Good  of  the 
Church,  &  to  Remain  Sum  time  Longer  Destitute  of  Spiritual 
Food,  till  Y""  Lord  Ship  be  pleased  be  pleased  to  Appoint  Som 
Pious  Clergy  Man  to  the  perticular  Charge  of  this  parrish  and  to 
Limit  him  to  this  Cure  only,  that  We  be  not  Rejcted  a  Second 
Time  for  aA  Richer  parrish. 

Who  Ever  May  be  Appointed  our  paster  may  be  Certain  of  an 
Easey  Quiete  and  be  pleased,  an  happy  and  Pleasent  Situation,  A

May  it  please  Your  Lordship 

V/e  the  Wardens  and  Vestry  of  the  Parish  Prince  Frederick,  in 
His  Majestie's  Province  of  S°  Carolina,  beg  leave  to  Address 
Y'  Lordship,  upon  an  Occasion,  the  Natural  importance  of  which, 
we  Cordially  hope,  will  be  deemed  our  sufficient  Appollogy. 

Vv'e  have  (it  is  true  INIy  Lord)  Addressed  Your  very  worthy 


PARISH   PRINCE   PREDERICK   WINY  AW  173 

Predecessor  twice  on  the  like  Occasion,  and  can  Boast  the  Singular 
Satisfaction  to  have  found  that  our  requests  have  not  been  un- 
roticed,  from  the  Demission  of  two  Gentlemen  t  -  this  Parish, 
Viz,  The  Rev'^  M'"  Cooper,  and  the  Rev''  Mr  Dormer,  (Our  Present 
Resident  Minister)  We  are  extremely  sorry  to  be  thus  importunate, 
but  as  the  Rev*^  M''  Dormer  has  publickly  Signified  his  intention 
of  returning  Home  in  June,  July,  or  August  next  the  farthest, 
our  Church  and  Parish  must  of  Course  remain  unsuppHed  for  a 
time,  (those  advantages  only  excepted  which  we  may  Occasionally 
reap  from  the  Charitable  dispositions  of  Neighbouring  Clergy) 
who  reside  generally  speaking  at  too  wide  a  distance  to  Assist 
us  often  and  as  we  are  by  no  meanes  Lukewarm  Advocates  for 
Xtianity  and  her  perpetuity  we  therefore  entertain  the  most  san- 
guine hope  that  y"'  Lordship  will  excuse  us,  when  we  address  you 
thus  Ardently  Besides  (My  Lord)  the  remotest  distance  that  we 
of  this  Province  live  at  from  y''  Protection  and  Care  the  Numbers 
of  Different  Sectaries  that  abound  here;  the  Immediate  ill  Conse- 
quences resulting  therefrom  to  the  advantages  of  us,  add  to  all 
which,  The  general  prevalency  of  Presbyterianism  in  particular. 
These  Circumstances  Strongly  call  for  our  Assiduity  our  Impor- 
tunity and  our  most  serious  thoughts. 

But  we  further  beg  leave  to  subjoin,  viz,  that  least  your  L** 
Ship  Should  Suspect,  much  less  surmise,  that  any  Difference  what- 
ever can  subsist  between  the  Rev''  M''  Dormer  &  Ourselves,  pre- 
viously to  his  intended  Departure,  we  can  assure  y''  Lordship  of 
the  Contrary  and  as  a  proof  have  desired  Mr  Dormer  to  write 
in  connexion  with  us,  to  which  he  has  Readily  assented,  and 
enclose  his  Letter,  with  ours,  unsealed.  We  have  now  My  Lord, 
only  to  recapitulate  in  sanguine  Terms  (what  has  been  already 
generally  implied),  that  you  will  take  our  distressed  situation  under 
Cognizance,  and  as  speedily  as  possible  advert  to  our  SoUicitations, 
by  the  Remission  of  a  Minister  to  the  future  Cure  of  this  Parish 
and  that  for  our  Sakes;  for  Mans  Sake  but  Principally  and 
Chiefly  for  his  sake — who  we  are  far  from  being  Ignorant  or  in- 
sensibly of  it,  both  lived  &  Dy'd  for  the  Sake  of  Man.  We  beg 
leave  to  Subscribe  ourselves, 

May  it  please  your  Lordship,
