Excerpt from Reminiscences of Early Methodism in Indiana: Including Sketches of Various Prominent Ministers, Together With Narratives of Women Eminent for Piety, Poetry and Song The heroic age of the Methodist Episcopal Church is not ended. The fire still glows on her altars; zeal still ames in her heart. The men who traveled the primeval forests of the 'vest by blazed trees, forded or swam, as occasion required, the numerous and nu bridged streams, who often slept under the friendly woods, faring hard and working harder - these heroes of a rough time were the fathers of noble sons. If the sires were heroic, their children are not cowardly. If the fathers laid the foundations, their sons rear the superstructure. The sublime purpose which inaugu rated the Methodistic movement still.pushes the con quering march of her sacramental host. Her theology maintains its integrity; her worship retains its sim plicity her methods are more direct and efficient than those of any other church; her book Of, discipline makes no concession to popular sin. She stands as unshaken and unaltered among the Opinions and cus toms of these changeful times as Gibraltar in the midst of the changeful waters. She pushes her work in the centers of the Cities and on the farthest frontiers. Her missionary stations girdle the globe, and though her missionary contributions are very large, her zeal is so fiery that more missionaries than can be employed offer their services every year. It is not true that all the religious heroes are dead, and that all we can know of pious daring, of patient, Self-denying toil and of willing suffering, is in books of history and in epitaphs cut on monuments. Something of the old pathos quivers through this age, and some gleams of the old glory illumine it. To think otherwise would be to despair.
