Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Life of the Rev. Alexander Kilham, Formerly a Preacher Under the Rev. J. Wesley: And One of the Founders of the Methodist New Connexion in the Year 1797; Including a Full Account of the Disputes Which Occasioned the Separation Within a year after the death of Mr. Kilham, an account of his life was published, with a Preface, signed by the Rev. J. Grundell and Mr. R. Hall, President and Secretary of the Methodist New Connexion second Annual Conference, held at Nottingham, in June, 1799. The volume consisted chiefly of extracts from Mr. Kilham´s diary, and contained but little information of a definite character respecting the division which had recently occurred in the Methodist Connexion, in which Mr. Kilham had been principally engaged. This omission of details may be accounted for by the disputes, and the part Mr. Kilham had taken therein, being so well known, that it was considered unnecessary to repeat them at the time. But when a new generation had grown up in Methodism, who had not been partakers in the controversy, and the associates of Mr. Kilham had mostly followed him to their "long home," the case was different; and a want was felt, which his published Life was not calculated to supply. A new Biography, containing a fuller statement of his public conduct, became therefore desirable, for the sake of others. It was also due to his character; for the scanty memorial referred to, did justice neither to his talents nor his labours, which were only spoken of in general terms; so that, after he ceased to have living oral witnesses of what he had done and suffered, there was danger of those peculiarities being entirely forgotten by which he was distinguished from other preachers.
