Church, South: Together With a Discussion of Some of the More Important Points of Doctrine and Principles of Church Polity Taught by the Methodist Episcopal Churches Then when we come to biographies and autobiographies of men of somewhat less note, such as T. Ware, J. Gruber, J as. Quinn, Peter Cartright, Jacob Young, Valentine Cook, Philip Gatch, John Collins, Joseph Travis, and others of that day, we find the number of readers still more limited, while most of those of still later date have fewer still.

In many respects he was the equai, and in some the superior of his biographer. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
