Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Discussion on Methodist Episcopacy In introducing the following pages to the public, it is proper that we give a succinct statement of the origin of the discussion, as well as the reasons which have induced us to publish it in this form. In the month of April, 1855, an article was copied into the columns of the ´South Western Baptist,´ from the ´Western Watchman,´ entitled "Episcopal Methodism, Anti-American." [The article from the ´Western Watchman´ is inserted in the Volume, because of its connection with the discussion.] The pastor of the Methodist Episcopal Church in Tuskegee, the Rev. E. J. Hamill, feeling that injustice had been done his denomination in that article, wrote a reply to it, which reply was countersigned by three members of his charge, and offered it to the editors of the ´Baptist,´ for publication. It was cheerfully accepted; and as the junior editor of that paper, Rev. J. M. Watt, was about retiring from his position, it devolved upon the senior editor to rejoin to that communication. The editor felt called upon, in terms which he could not mistake, either to repudiate the article from the ´Watchman,´ or to defend it. And while he freely acknowledged that there was a portion of that article obnoxious to the charge of injustice, from which he cheerfully withdrew any implied endorsement which its simple republication involved, he at the same time felt bound to maintain, that the main scope of the argument it contained, was subject to no such charge, and could be, in his opinion, successfully maintained. (Perhaps it is due to the editor, to state, that the article from the Watchman was copied by his junior associate, and in print some time before he saw it.)
