edge that they outstripped many who, in these latter days, receive their diplomas from the hands of college presidents. And there were not a few, even in those days, who were giants in the presence of those who then felt glad of the honor which their Alma Mater had conferred upon them. But however much or little they had of the wisdom which may be gathered from books, it was rare to find one who had not received large measures of the wisdom which God has promised to give liberally and upbraid not.
Now, having fixed the fact of the early advent of Meth- odism in this community, it will not be advisable to con- tinue year by year, and will just say that, having a list of preachers and presiding elders who served in regular order, as the years passed by, and reading this list to Mrs. Hardy, Mrs. Genter, they remembered some name in every year, and some of the persons they recall with great distinctness.
I may say that Mr. Walrath was quite a helpful man in all these means of grace, being a class-leader and taking considerable of a leading position in the singing of those earnest services, and was also licensed as an exhorter, but as to exercising himself as such, I have found but little in- formation. In 1804 the Rev. Benj. Bidlack and J. P. Weaver were on the eireuit, both of whom are remembered ; Mrs. Hardy remembering Mr. Weaver because he would talk to the young folks about their souls' salvation, and this in the presence of the family, which she now candidly says she did not like. And most other young people are just the same, especially when spoken to in the presence of others. In this year I find in a memoir of one of the old workers a reference to a class in Warren, consisting of Robert Heustis and wife, and his son Jonathan, Elijah Peak and wife, Elizabeth Paddock and her son Benjamin. Here was a class of seven persons, and Mr. Robert Heustis was leader. Young Heustis had been converted some- where about this time, as was also Benj. G. Paddock ; and both of them came to be efficient preachers, and served this circuit in the after-years.
The names of Benoni Harris, a relative of John Harris, of Springfield, C. Giles, Peter Vaunest, Isaac Puffer, Wm. Jewett, Samuel Ross, and Asa Cummings are definitely re- membered, all of whow, and as many more, served this circuit previous to the year 1813, when it was reported with 390 members, though the cirenit had been narrowed down very much since its early day of twenty years before. During these years there had been conversions at every preaching place throughout the plan, and in many cases marked revivals. Sinners who had been given over by - established churches as nearly if not quite reprobates, were brought under the power of the truth, and by the Holy Ghost were transformed by the renewing of the mind. 20 that he who was called Legion was frequently sanctified and clothed, and came to his right mind. And many of these saved men came to be marvels of spiritual power, and unfrequently set down by the " settled pastors" as incor- rigible fanatics. Such was the case with Benj. G. Pad- dock, as is manifested by this extract from his memoir.
Mrs. Paddock was a member of the Baptist church, but her son having been converted among the Methodists, at Augusta, Oneida county, and returning home she could but rejoice; and one day when Rev. Mr. Holcombe, the
328
HISTORY OF OTSEGO COUNTY, NEW YORK.
pastor of the Baptist church, which was then in Warren, called to see the family, she expressed herself as greatly pleased at now having one of the family to go to heaven with her. When, naturally, he inquired who? And she answered, " My son Benjamin !" When he answered, with a smile of contempt, " Benjamin ! I have as much again hope for the conversion of any half-dozen of the wickedest men in the town as I have for that of Benjamin, for they may be brought in by sovereign grace, but he has the poison of Arminianism so ingrained in his heart that it will be impossible to get it out of him." And in a little time after this, when the young man was being deeply exercised about his call to the ministry, he went to this same elder, earnestly inquiring for light and instruction; and after he had tremblingly opened his heart to him, the elder answered as follows: " Well, Bennie, I advise you to go home and ask your mother to make you a good strong cup of tea, when your head will doubtless feel better." Closing his advice with a laugh. Mr. Holeombe was not the only elder who acted the same. But this elder afterwards apologized to Benjamin, when he had heard him preach a few times. Paddock and Heustis were among the first of the many strong men who went out into the Methodist ministry from this circuit and county.
From 1813 to 1833, twenty years, I have been able to find only a bare shred of authentie history of our church. There are facts and figures, but I could not get the books involving the conference minutes. But I do find that, in . 1816 and 1817, Abner Chase was on this circuit, and I find the testimony of his successors gives evidence that during his occupancy of the circuit there was a glowing iu- terest at all the preaching places. For, as Rev. John Ham- ilton and B. G. Paddock came to succeed him, they found, including probationers, 551 members, which, as compared with 390, four years before, shows a very worthy inerease. It was at about this time that that very eccentric preacher Lorenzo Dow came through these parts. An appointment was announced for him in the old Presbyterian ehirch, and it was packed to its utmost capacity, and many were out- side. A little misunderstanding as to who should preach then arose, when Dow turned on his heel, saying, " We will repair to the grove," and suiting the action to the word, got out of a window, and the people following en masse, sat on the ground and on boards and planks brought along for the purpose. Aud there, under the shade of the Parmelee woods, Dow standing on a stump, preached, as I am tohl, from these words: " In the midst of the street of it and "on either side of the river, was there the tree of life, which bare twelve manner of fruit, and yielded her fruit every month ; and the leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations."
Whether this meteor-like, eccentric man was ever through this section more than once, I have not had the means of learning. This earnest man was related to the ancestors of Mr. D. Burley, of Springfield. But Methodlism, while having had men who were quite exceptiond in their modes, has depended upon methodic, earnest workers, and ex- pected all to do their part to carry forward the great work of saving souls. So much was this the case that one writer of those times says that "everybody who came into the so-
cieties at that time was expected to be a worker." Another resolute preacher, by the name of Erkenbrack, was efficient in the work on this circuit, and evidences are numerous, showing that among Methodist societies where he labored there were revivals almost yearly.
In 1819 and 1820 Mr. Paddoek, being stationed at Cooperstown, was greatly instrumental in helping in a marked revival which took place there. Mr. Paddock and the Presbyterian pastor worked together like Christian brothers, and seeing above a hundred added to cach church. At this time revivals of great power took place all through the Methodist connections. During about this time an- other marked man was on this district,-Rev. George Gary,. -who was born in Middlefield, Otsego County, but born again in the State of Connecticut, under the labors of Rev. Mr. Sabin, a Methodist preacher, and began to preach when he was sixteen, and, though a boy, was a marvel of holy eloquence, and he is still remembered with high ap- preciation by those who are aged.
During these years school-house preaching places came to be very common, and not a few circumstances arose . where envious or hating spirits sought to lock the doors and keep out the preacher and the people, and nearly every school-house in Springfield, especially in this eastern pari, has been at some time locked against them. All these years Methodist preachers had been more intent on saving souls and forming societies than in building church edifices. And thousands, yea, millions of souls will rise up in the last day and bless God that in the time of pioneer life the. unwearied men of undaunted courage and mighty faith were among the cabins, the barns, aud the school-houses, calling men everywhere to repeutanee, and saying the king- dom of heaven has come nigh unto you. And though while this kind of work was being done, and the workers were called by some people anything but ministers and Christians, yet as soon as any persons converted by their labors were found with the least desire of entering into an- other denominational fold they were greeted with a wel- coming smile and a ready hand, and not unfrequently with the patronizing remark, " that it was wise of them not to stay among that fanatie sect." Yes, many a church would have died long ago but for the impulse in spirit and num- ber it has received from a log cabin, a barn, or a sch. . i- house revival, wrought by the power of God through the unselfish labors of the eircuit-riders. But the time caine when Methodism began to build, for she had taken root to stay ; and so it was in Springfield. And at this time many of the old family names of Springfield are found on the seanty records of those early times. The Hardys, Gray. Basingers, Burlingames, Carrols, Cooks, Parmelees, Arndts. Dolphins, Fields, Francis, Genters, Johnsons, Rathbottes. Stockleys, Stockers, Shauls, Van Aukins, Pinckneys, Will- seys, Scotts, and scores of others. Some of these remain . but the most of these names are now represented by their descendants.
But building time came ; a meeting was called in l;ir- mony with the statutes of the State to organize a bal ecclesiastical boty, and plan for the building of a church The meeting then called was to convene at the school indice at East Springfield, on April 8, 1833. And on that do it
329
HISTORY OF OTSEGO COUNTY, NEW YORK.
did convene and methodically attended to the work, and during the year following the church was erected. From this time forward we have definite records of our progress as a church. Of the meeting for organization, Peter I. Wal- rath was made chairman, and Abram I. Arndt was seere- tary ; and this resolution was passed : That the church be called the First Methodist Episcopal Church of Springfield, and that five trustees be appointed for the society. The trustees elected were: Benj. Huntington, Benj. Stocker, Samuel B. Merril, Richard W. Turner, Samuel Brewer. And the building committee consisted of Levi Gray, Samuel Brewer, and Brewster Conklin.
I do not find figures definite enough to enable me to specify the numbers in the various elasses making up the society at that time. But it is very certain that the strength of the society was such as to make it flourishing, at least if we may judge from the standing of the minister who was appointed to serve the organized charge. Rev. Lyman Sperry was the first preacher, serving from 1834 to 1836, Andrew Peek being presiding elder, and during this ineumbency there was a very marked revival, and a large increase in numbers. There are many who remember him. Andrew Peck was from a Middlefield family which gave five strong men to the ministry, one of whom is now a bishop in our church. Mrs. Grout is a descendant of this family. Mr. Sperry was followed by Benijah Mason, serving two years, and a marked revival on Willsey Hill took place at this time, transpiring in June of one of his years. Meetings were held in a large barn, now owned by Mr. Henry Van Aukin. From 1838 to 1840 Henry IIal- stead was pastor, and 'Z. Paddoek presiding elder. Here was another son of this section brought up and converted at Warren ; and his father and mother were buried in one of the Warren cemeteries. The mother of the two strong men-B. G. and Z. Paddock-loved her old familiar Bible so well that she instructed that it should be placed beneath her head in the coffin. Revival blessed the community under Brother Halstead, who was followed by Rev. Leon- ard Bowdish, from 1840 to 1842. Then Edward W. Breckenridge held the pastorate two years, and was the - means of an extensive revival. He was followed in the pulpit by Lucius Cary Rogers, and the suceeeding two years were filled by Henry Halstead again, and Lyman Sperry as the presiding elder. And the society must have been pleased and profited by seeing these men once more.
Next in order we find A. E. Daniles, two years, revival and all; then Moses L. Kern, two years, revival also. And during these years just mentioned most of the present older members were converted. D. C. Dutehier occupied the pulpit one year, 1853, followed by George C. Elliott. The members who are now fifty years old and above, speak of these years just mentioned as years when the society was in strong estate and large prosperity. This was the time of its marked success. At this time the parsonage tangle began, and its effects are not fully ended yet. How wise and firm and unselfish the counselings and administra- tion of the church should be !
Rev. JJoseph Shank, a man of marked ability, was pastor one year. Then Silas Comfort from 1857 to 1858. He was followed by Rev. George Parsons, a genial, carnest, faithful
man and minister, who was followed by Rev. W. C. Me- Donald, a resolute and vigorous minister, from 1861 and 1862. Rev. James Weeks filled one year and was re-ap- pointed the second, but was by ecclesiastical consent changed for I. O. Bower, and with no advantage to the society. Rev. George Parsons again appointed, 1865-67, who labored faithfully in the interests of the church and with marked sueeess. Rev. L. E. Marvin served two years, 1868-69. At this time the plan and labor of remodeling the church took place, at an expense of about $3500. After this, in quiek suecession, followed as pastors Revs. G. Mcad, L. B. Gray, Father Houghton, Frederick Gates, and I. E. Marvin, again ; and lastly, Rev. G. B. Fairhead, 1875-77. The presiding elders who have served during these later years, and who have rendered their measure of counsel and help to our Zion, are Revs. I. Parks, Wm. Bixby, J. T. Wright, A. B. Gregg, and the present ineum- bent, A. E. Corse, who eloses his very acceptable quadren- nial with this year. During these last years the society has had something of a struggle. But everybody now in relation with the society feels that the church is again heading out to sea, well manned, and having a good pros- peet of a prosperous voyage.
No doubt it will be desirable to give the statistics of the society at present and in the more recent past. At the elose of Brother Marvin's last year, there are reported in the minutes 69 members in full connection and 47 on pro- bation, making a total of 116. And in the same report we find four children and fifteen adult baptisms. The next year shows 91 in full membership and 51 probationists, a total of 142. The last year 120 members in full and 10 probationists, total of 130, which shrinkage arose from the faet that some of the probationers had left the charge, and a few had received letters, and a few had died. The present figures stand: probationers, 16; members in full, 116 ; total, 142. The inerease of membership of these more reeent years was the result of the revival during the last year of Brother Marvin's administration, in which Revs. P. and L. B. Gray rendered much assistance. These two minis- ters were reared in this town and received their first license from this church, and a revival in the following year which began under the labors of Rev. O. Parker, an carnest evangelist, whose labors were blessed to many hearts. He condueted services three weeks at the Presbyterian church, the Methodist church fully uniting, after which the series of meetings were continued in the Methodist church for the period of three weeks or more. From these efforts both churches were considerably strengthened.
The present officers of the church are as follows: Rev. S. Salisbury, pastor ; Rev. L. E. Marvin, supernumerary ; Rev. E. Everett, local deaeon ; Wmn. E. Hardy, V. C. Snyder, and D. W. Gray, stewards and trustees ; E. S. Francis, Charles Gray, C. C. Genter, T. L. Grout, and D. Buckus, stewards; Wm. Marks. L. W. Rathbone, 1. Cook, and E. Bush, trustees ; T. I. Grout, Sunday-school super- intendent.
