Stockton appears in the appointments as the head of a charge first in 1879, at which time J. W. Scott was appointed pastor. Following him were F. A. Piper, A. Crumley, E. S. Arrington and J. P. Hill, each serv- ed the charge one year. The next year it was left to be supplied which was done by B. R. Prather.
In 1885 W. George was appointed but the Minutes show that H. Dalton reported the work in 1886, hence must have served it the latter part of the year.
The following were pastors as indicated: W. A. J. Best, '86-7; A. B. Comwell, '88-90; G. W. Hood, '91-2; J. P. Allen, '93; J. C. Horn, '94-5; E. M. Evans, '96; M. J. Bailey '97; J. N. Clark, '98; J. M. Allen, '99; J. M. Smith, 1900; C. W. Talmadge, '01-05; J. F. Dennis, '06-10; C. M. Snyder, '11-12; F. E. Madden, '13-17.
The church is a commodious building of red press- ed brick, built in 1912, during the pastorate of C. M. Snyder. It contains 22 rooms and is thoroughly equipped throughout. When all partitions are open the auditorium will seat eleven hundred people. It cost $24,000. On the day of dedication $12,000 were

pledged in notes running three to five years. This was followed by two years of crop failure.
In 1914 W. A. Allen was appointed to the charge and served it till July 1915, when F. E. Madden was transferred from the Kansas Conference, and appoint- ed to Stockton. He found a debt on the church of $8,- 300. Four thousand of the notes in hand were judged to be good, leaving $4300 to be raised. On January 1, 1917 J. F. Harmon was with the pastor in a debt rais- ing campaign. Four thousand eight hundred dollars were pledged. These pledges are being paid, so the debt does not bore the pastor. As the years have passed, pastors have reported through the Central from time to time. In March 1891, G. W. Hood who had recently transferred from the Little Rock Con- ference, reported that he had been warmly received and was being loyally supported. The Ladies' Aid and Young People cooperated to extend him welcome. By a slip his report to the Conference failed to appear in the minutes, so he asked that a summary might ap- pear in the Central. It was as follows: "Sunday School paid on expenses $87, church had paid on insurance and improvements $70; fuel, light and furniture $189, salary $550, presiding elder $45, bishop $7, benevo- lences $43, Children's Day collection $10.
E. M. Evans reported December 1895, that since coming to Stockton, July 1st the church membership had increased 15 per cent. the League 121/2 per cent., Junior League 36 per cent. and subscribers to the Cen- tral 70 per cent. December '96 he reported that a recent revival resulted in 26 conversions and four reclamations, that attendance at League had increased and church attendance was good. A Reading Circle had been organized and the people appreciated it. March 3, 1897 M. J. Baily reported a four weeks' meet- ing in which eleven had been converted, making 39

for the year. Sixty had joined by letter and on pro- bation in 18 months.
A good parsonage had been purchased at a reason- able price. C. W. Talmage reported in 1902 that a furnace had been put in the church. The membership of the church is 365; average attendance at Sunday School is 210. They have a strong Ladies' Aid which has paid $500 a year for five years on the church debt. The Home Missionary Society has 20 members and the Foreign 15.
The League has 100 members and the pastor says: "They are hustlers." They took 22 delegates to the Central Kansas League Institute at Salina, and broke the record for the Institute attendance. The League pledged $100 on the church debt and have paid most of it this year. H. G. Eads is the president and has held the office for seven years. A. K. Colburn is the S. S. Supt. and is faithful and efficient. A. K. Wright, the mayor of the city, is chairman of the board of stewards, a good man. J. A. Marshall is chairman of the board of trustees. N. F. Hill is secretary and Ed. Biggs, treasurer. Fred Look, Sr., C. W. Jackson are trustees. With another crop the debt will be paid off and Stockton should be one of the best charges in the Conference. The charge needs a new parsonage, and will have it in the near future. Quite a number of the leading business men of the city are among the mem- bership of the church.
The report of the charge for last year was as fol- lows: Value of church, $30,000; parsonage, $1500; current Exp., $1118; F. members, 324; salaries, pas- tor, $1600; D. S. $112; bishop, $23; C. C., $50; F. Ms., $162; H. Ms., $141; Gd., total, $887; S. S. O's. & T's., 33; Enrl, 409; Av., 207; Exp. of school, $248; Ep. L. Sr., 79; W. F. M. S., $72.

The church was valued at $250 and the parsonage at $400. In 1907 both church and parsonage had been improved by the ex- penditure of $400. In 1912 two churches were report- ed having an appraised value of $7800, five thousand eight hundred dollars of which were paid that year.

Webster was known through the Central years be- fore it came to be the head of a charge. In March '92 H. H. Brown reported a 20 days' meeting at Slate which resulted in 32 conversions and 15 accessions to the church. In May '94 J. H. Hoff had started a preaching service at Portage, the Sunday School pray- er and class meeting and league were well attended, 13 had been baptized and ten received into full mem- bership, five by letter and two on probation. In Oc- tober of the same year the pastor received a donation. March 18, 1903 J. H. Craven had held a revival in which 21 were converted. A league of 41 members had been organized. E. H. Wilson served Webster 1907-8. January 15, 1908 he had held a four weeks' meeting with the assistance of James Kerr, in which time 73 bowed at the altar as seekers. On December 29 the pastor preached to parents, young people and children. Twenty-five bowed at the altar. In the fall of 1911 Mrs. Julia Short of Jersyville, Ill. assisted the pastor, R. M. Brown in a revival in which there were 36 conversions and reclamations.
Wells.
Wells is a station on the Santa Fe R. R. north of Minneapolis. The class was organized in the depot, that being the only building other than a private house in the vicinity. The ticket agent being a Chris- tian man, and living in the station invited the service to his home, which was accepted. The writer was the presiding elder of the district at the time, and organ- ized this class in 1895, which with another school house appointment constituted a charge and in 1896, Levi Crist, a faithful local preacher, living on a farm not far away was appointed pastor.

The first year he reported 41 members and 13 pro- bationers with two S. S. having fifteen officers and teachers and an enrollment of 60 and an average at- tendance of 40. He served the charge five years. The last year he reported 63 members and 35 probationers. Crist was succeeded by O. A. Darnell, who reported as the result of his first year's work four S. S., 14 of- ficers and teachers, 150 scholars enrolled with an average attendance of 100. A church valued at $1500 was built and paid for. In 1903, Darnell was succeed- ed by E. S. Ashcraft. Then for some reason not ex- plained, Wells drops from the list of appointments. In 1906 H. W. Wolf was appointed pastor but there was no report of the work the next year.
The charge now consists of two appointments, Wells and Vine Creek. The pastor receives $550, of which Wells pays $400 and Vine Creek $150.
The official members of the charge are Wells: Cris Kuhlman, class leader; Otis Palmer, S. S. superintend- ent; Mrs. J. Schur, president Ladies' Aid. Stewards : Jessie Palmer, George Sanderson, Cris Kulhman, John Schur. Trustees: J. Palmer, G. Sanderson, J. S. Sil- ver, C. J. Crawford, John Schur.

Woodston.
The Woodston Circuit of the Methodist Episcopal Church was first organized in the A. S. Avery grove four miles southwest of what is now the village of Woodston during the District Camp Meeting, in the year 1878, on June 1st. The first quarterly Confer-
500
HISTORY OF METHODISM
ence was held at that time, Rev. R. A. Carruthers, presiding elder, presiding, with Rev. F. G. McHenry as pastor in charge. Rev. McHenry was the first itinerant preacher in Rooks county.
At that time and following the charge was com- prised of several preaching places, viz., Pleasant Ridge (New Stockton), East Medicine (Now Aurora), Pleasant Plain, Floraville (Now Codell), and Rooks Center (Now Woodston). After the charge was or- ganized the first sermon was preached by Rev. Mc- Henry in a log house on what is now the L. C. Smith farm southwest of town. There were five members present, and E. W. Brown, who later moved to Wood- ston, was class leader.
Rev. L. C. York of Bull City (Now Alton, Kan.) was the first Methodist preacher to preach in the town of Woodston. In the winter of 1886-7 he held a re- vival in the G. A. hall, resulting in 23 conversions. Subsequent to this in the year 1889, Rev. Issac Kurtz, organized the first class in town, and for some time the services were in the hall, but later they moved to the new school house where they remained until 1892.
The United Brethren had built a new church in the town and they together with the Methodists and Bap- tists agreed to hold union services, each congregation or denomination supporting its own pastor. This con- tinued until the year 1896, at which time the Baptists and Methodists withdrew to the Free Methodist Church where services were held until the Union Chapel was built in 1898. Here the services alternated between the Methodists and Baptists while the Sun- day School was conducted as a Union School.
In 1911 the Methodists decided to build, so having sold their interest in the Union Chapel to the Baptists, they purchased property on Main Street one block south of the depot. On the property was an old livery stable which was removed and the building begun.

Here a very beautiful edifice was erected at a cost of $6000. The church was dedicated free of debt in one of the county's hardest years. Dr. Iliff preached the dedicatory sermon. Rev. F. N. Stelson was the pastor at the time, and he with R. Bisbee, B. F. Williams, H. B, Nye, W. H. Dennis, and D. C. Worden comprised the building committee.
The parsonage was built in the year 1914 at a cost of approximately $1000. Rev. J. A. Westerman was the pastor.
During these years different charges grew out of this charge. Stockton, now the county seat has a large and flourishing congregation; Aurora belongs to the Natoma charge, as also does Pleasant Plains; Codell is the head of a circuit. But for many years the point in the Medicine Valley known as Survey was attached to the Woodston charge. The class at this point was organized about the same time that the Woodston class proper was organized, and about the same time as the Woodston class, and by the same pastor, Rev. Isaac Kurtz. The organization took place at a Camp Meet- ing in the Avery grove. Services were held in the old log house Grange Hall on the Big Medicine. There were 12 or 15 members in the class and H. Crunk- shank was the class leader. Prior to the organization Rev. York had preached at the Grange a few times. Shortly after the organization as the result of a re- vival effort several probationers were received into the church. From the Grange Hall the society went to the Evangelical Church nearby to worship, and when the new school house was built the class went there where it has remained until the present time. Some of the class leaders following H. Crunkshank have been C. D. Howard and W. L. Shepard. The Sunday School was not organized until 1890. Up to this time they had associated themselves with the Evangelical Sun- day School.

HISTORY OF METHODISM
In the Spring of 1917 Woodston was made a station and Survey was to be supplied by Rev. J. F. Dennis. The charge had been gradually decreasing in member- ship for some time, and in the middle of the year 1917 it ceased its services altogether.
Several facts of interest group themselves about the Woodston charge. The different denominations in the town have seemingly prospered more since they have had their separate work; they have prospered spiritually, financially, and in membership. All of these churches are free of debt and are supporting a resident pastor.
Rev. Kurtz, the father of Methodism at Woodston and Survey, gave most of his services free of charge. He was a farmer, and so made his way. During those hard years it was a good thing for the charge.
Rev. R. Bisbee one of the Woodston pastors was once preaching at the Parker school house east of town and the rowdies tried to run him out. Later, the leader of the gang, a cowboy, was killed by the sheriff while resisting arrest.
At one time after the organization there was not a Methodist family living in town. Now the majority of the membership consists of town residents. The first Gospel Team service held by Woodston men was held at the Spring Branch Church, and at that time Rev. Isaac Kurtz, the Father of Woodston Methodism, died while giving his testimony. Recently the church was redecorated outside and in at a cost of $150.00. At the present the officials are: Trustees, H. Reeves, W. Dunlap, A. Still, B. S. Williams, C. Minnick; League president, A. Hollen; president Ladies' Aid, Mrs. Emma Peacock; president W. H. M. S., Mrs. R. C. Meyers.
The pastors who have served the charge were: I. Kurtz, 1889-90; W. S. Morrison, '90-92; W. C. Littell, '93; E. M. Evans, '94; J. H. Hoff, '95; M. L. Kerr, '96;

The statistics for 1917 give the following: Church, $6000; parsonage, $1000; expenses, $236; full mem- bers, 112; preparatory, 27; support, pastor, $1120; D. S., $80; bishops, $15; C. C's., $40; F.
