It will be seen at a glance that the compilation of such a work as is herewith presented is attended with no ordinary amount of difficulty, and but for the kind co-operation of the clergy, who have furnished most of the facts and figures, it j|» would have been almost an impossibility. Our thanks are due, also, to Honorable Gkant Goodrich, for furnishing us with the concise and accurate detail of the early history of Metho- dism in Chicago, whi<-h appears on page nineteen. As for the typographical appearance, the engravings, etc., we have nothing whatever to say, but will permit the book to speak for itself. Otherwise from that, in judging of its merits, we trust our readers will bear in mind the fact, that this is, to the best of our knowl- edge and belief, the first volume of the kind that has ever been issued, and that, therefore, whatever defects may appear to the critical reader, are those which naturally result from our inexperience in a new and untried field of eftbrt. We hope, Providence permitting, on or about the fifteenth day of December, next, to be able to publish the second volume of our "Annual," free from defects of any kind, and so much improved in the qxiantity and quality of its contents, as to commend itself to the atten- tion and patronage of all who are interested in the jirogress :ind pros- perity of our branch of the Christian faith, in this part of the world.

In the latter end of the year 1739, eight or ten persons came to Mr. "Wesley, in London, who appeared to be deeply convinced of sin, and earnestly groaning for reaemi)tion. They desired, as did two or three more the next day, that he would spend some time with them in prayer, and advise them how to flee from the wrath to come, which they saw con- tinually hanging over their heads. Tliat he might liave more time for this great work, he appointed a day when they might all come together; which from thenceforward they did every week, namely, on Thursday, in the evening. To tliese, and as many more as desired to join with them (for their number increased daily), he gave those advices from time to time which he judged most needful for them; and they always concluded their meeting with prayer suited to their several necessities. This was the rise of the United Society, lirst in Europe, and then in America. Such a society is no other than "o comj)any of tnen liaving the form and seeking the power oi godliness, united in order to jyr ay to- gether, to receive the ii'ord of exhortation, and to ivatch over one another in love, that they may help each other to U'ork out their salvation." That it may the more easily be discerned whether they are indeed working out their own salvation, each society is divided into smaller companies, called classes, according to their respective places of abode. There are about twelve persons in a class, one of whom is styled t?ie Leader. It is Iiis duty: — 1. To see each person in his class once a week at least; in order, (1) To inquire how their souls prosper. (2) To advise, reprove, comfort, or exhort, as occasion may require. (3) To receive what they are willing to give toward the relief of the preachers, church and poor. (This part refers to towns and cities, where the poor are gen- ei-ally numerous and church expenses considerable.) 2. — To meet the ministers and the stewards of the society once a week; in order, (1) To inform tlie minister of any that are sick, or of any that walk disorderly, and will not be reproved. (2) To pay the stewards what they have received of their several classes m the week preceding. There is only one condition previously required of those who desire admission into these societies, "a desire to flee from the wrath to come, ( and to be saved from their sins." But wherever this is really fixed in ^ the soul, it will be shown by its fruits. It is therefore expected of all J who continue therein, that they should continue to evidence their <;"' desire of salvation : — First, by doing no harm, by avoiding evil of every kind, especially that which is most generally practiced, such as: — The ' taking of the name of God in vain ; the profaning the day of the Loi-d, / either by doing ordinary work therein, or by buying or selling. Drunk. ! enness, buying or selhng spirituous liquors, or drinking them, unless in \ cases of extreme necessity. Slaveholding; buving or selling slaves. Fighting, quarreling, brawling, bi-other going to law with brother; re- METHODISM IN CHICAGO. 15 turning evil for evil, or railing for railing; the ixsing many words in buying or selling. The buying or selling gooils that have not paid the duty. The giving or taking things on usury, tliat is, unlawful interest. Uncharitable or unprotitable conversation J particularly speaking evil of magistrates or ministers. Doing to others as we would not that they should do unto us. Doing what we know is not for the glory of God; as the putting on of gold and costly apparel ; the taking of such diversions as cannot be used in the name of the Lord Jesus; the singing of those songs, or reading those books which do not tend to the knowledge or love of God. Softness and needless self-indulgence. Laying up treasures upon earth. Borrowing without a probability of paying; or taking up goods without a probability of paying for them. It is expected of all who continue in these societies that they should continue to evidence their desire of salvation:— .Secondly, by doing good; by being in every kind merciful after their power; as they have opportunity, doing good of every possible sort, and, as far as possible, to all men; to their bodies, of the ability which God giveth, by giving food to the hungry, by cloth- ing the naked, by visiting or helping them that are sick or in prison; to their souls, by Instructing, reproving, or exhorting all we have any intercourse with; trampling under foot that enthusiastic doctrine that "we are not to do good unless our hearts be free to it;" by doing good, especially to them that are of the household of faith, or groaning so to be ; emplbying them preferably to others, buying one of another, helping each other in business, and so much the more because the world will love its own and them only; by all possible diligence and frugaliiy that the Gospel be not blamed; by running with patience the race which is set before them, denying themselves and taking up their cross daily; sub- mitting to bear the reproach of Christ, to be as tlie tilth and offscouring of the world ; and looking that men should say all manner of evil of them falsely for the Lord's Sake. It is expected of all who desii-e to continue "in these societies that they should continue to evidence their desire of salvation :— Thirdly, by attending upon all the ordinances of God ; such are the public worship of God; the ministry of the word, either read or expounded; the supper of the Lord; family and private prayer; search- ing the Scriptures; fasting or abstinence. These are the General Rules of our Societies; all which we are taught of God to observe, even in his written word, which is the only rule, and the sufficient rule, both of our faith and practice. And all these we know his Spirit Avrites on truly awakened hearts. If there be any among us who observes them not, who habitually breaks any of them, let it be known iinto them who watch over that soul, as they who must give an account. We will admonish him of the error of his ways. We will bear with him for a season. But if then he repent not, he hath no more place among us. We have delivered our own souls.

PECK, Sec'y. HENRY BOOTH, Pres. METHODISM IN CHICAGO. 1^ History of Methodism in Cliicago. & By Hon. GRANT GOODRICH. HE DESIRE not to be forgotten on earth is one of the strongest L feelhigs 01 our nature. IMen know that I hey must perish from ki the earth— tliey seek to live in tlieir deeds. Crimes, however s great, toils, however severe, are hold cheaij sacrifice lor an im- mortality on earth, to one poor mrirtal. Though the Christian seeks a deathless immortality at the right hind of God, and may be careless of the remembrance of men, yet his good deeds are made to live after him; and it is right that the remembrance of our ben- J\3 efactors, who have gone before, be preserved for our respect and imitation. It cannot but be prolitable, that while surrounded by privileges lai-ge and rich, we be reminded that we enjoy the fruits of the labors of the pious dead, and of tlie honored living; that the tree under which we rest in such pleasant security, was not planted without the labor and toils, the prayers and efforts of those who preceded us. We are not able to determine certainly when the first Metho- dist preacher visited Chicago, but there seems "no great doubt that the first who regularly proclaimed the Gospel here was the Reverend Jesse AValker, who was "emphatically the apostle of the Northwest. He fol- lowed tlie lirst adventurous pioneers to Illinois and Missouri, sharing their hardships and dangers, bearing with him, and offering to them the salvation of Christ. He was appointed a Missionary to Illinois in 180(5. He was accompa- nied to this mission first by the Re"v. Win. JIcKendree, afterwards Bishop. They traversed the theii almost unbroken ami untrodden wilder- ness, which separated the scattered settlements in Illinois from Ken- tucky. They performed the journey on horsel)ack, subsisting mostly on the game tliev killed, and "sleeping under the covering of the skies. jNIcKendree, after a short time spent in i)reacliing and arranging the field of labor for Walker, returned ami left him alone to pursue his holy mission. The inhabitants received liiin kindly, and many of these simiile pioneers of civilization heard his message with joy and "became the sub- jects of a saving knowledge of the gosjjel. Otiier preachers from time to time were sent to his hid, and the work enlarged until it embraced most of the settlements of the then Territory of Illinois. He afterward visited and made Missouri a part of the field of his operations. In 1812 he was made Presidins Elder of the Illinois district, which then embraced all of Illinois and ^iissouri, which position he held until 1819, when he was sent on a mission to new and destitute fields. After wandering about from place to i)lace and preacliiug the gospel 20 METHODISM IN CHICAGO. of salvation evervwhere faithfully and successfully-, we find him, in the year 1S31, residing in Chicago, it being included in his missionary field. In his absence, the Rev. Wm. Lee, then a local preacher, though formerly a member of the Illinois Conference, and at the time United States blacksmith to the Indians, filled his place. Our best information is, that these two men, and the then wife of CoL R. J. Hamilton, were the first resident Methodists in Chicago. Mrs. Hamilton was a most pions and devoted Christian, and died in great peace in the spring of 1S34. In 1S33, Father Koble and Brother Charles Wisencraft arrived in Chicago, who immediatelv commenced prayer and other religious meetings. At this time, the society had no house of worship, but used for that purpose a room, in turn with the Baptists and Presbyterians, on the comer of 'Water and Wells Streets. In Ausnst, IS&B, the first quarterlv meeting in Chicago was held at Watkins' School-House, comer Xorthl.aSalle and Water Streets: John Sinclair, Presiding Elder, and Jesse VTalker, Missionary. There were also present at the first communion. "Wm. Lee, Local Preacher, and his wife, Chas. "Wisencrafc and wife, "Wm. "Whitehead, Local Preacher, Mrs. R. J. aimilton. and Mrs. Harriet Harmon. These constituted the entire Methodist familv in Chicago, who sat down at the encharistic feast to declare their remembrance and faith in the sacrificial death of Christ their Savior. Some of them live to see this day, and are made glad. In the spring of ISJi, the first regular class was formed, and Charles "Wisencraft was appointed Leader. Early in this year they met for wor- ship in a log house belonging to an Indian Chief, named Billy Caldwell, and used as a Council House, on the north side of the river, near the comerof Franklin and "Water Streets. Sometimes, however, meetings were held in what was called IngersoU's Tavern, which stood on the west side of the river, between Lake and Fulton Streets. Thev often occupied a small buildins on the north side of the river, between LaSalle and Clark Streets, called^ Watkins' School-House. In the spring of 1S34. the Lord put it into the hearts of his people and their friends to buUd BUma house. It was commenced and canied on to completion bv Brothers Whitehead and Stewart. It was set on the Xorth Side, at the corner of Water and Clark Streets. It was small, but to them it was Go.i's temple. The pulpit was supplied every Sabbath bv Father Walker, or the local preachers. We ought not to neglect to state that Brothers Whitehead and Wisencraft held weekly prayer- meetings with the soldiers in Fort Dearbj^rn. Durins the summer of 1S34, quite an accession was made to the church bv'the arrival of emigrants, who presented their letters, and in September of this vear, the Rev. John T. Mitchell arrived, and took charo-e of the Chicaso mission, by an app<>intment of the Illinois Confer- ence° During this conference vear considerable accessions were had by letter, and a few on probation. At the ensuing conference, by our own request, Chicago was struck from the list of missions, and John T. Mitchell appointed "the prea.'her In charge. In the spring of 1S36, an effort was made to raise funds to purchase a lot and build a house of worship on the south side of the river. At the sale of canal lots in June of that year, the lot on which Clark Street Church now stands was purchased under an arrangement Avith Dr. Rob- inson Tripp, bv which the church obtained the north 130 feet, and the sumof $1,100 was paid on it; but the pecuniary embarrassments which soon ensued, ended all hopes of building. j :,■,,. r„ At the conference of 1S36, the Rev. Otis T. Curtis succeeded John T. MitchelL In the general commercial crash which succeeded, few of the members escaped. There were some who so grieved at the loss of their wealth that they ttimed their backs on God, despising the riches at his METHODISM IN CHICAGO. 21 right hand. The integrity of these was not proof against the sore trials of the times: but, above all, the I'oiil and ignominious fall of the pre- siding elder, W. Mack— the outbreaking crimes and scandalous conduct of some of the members, who had been active and prominent in the church, fell in quick succession, with stunning weight upon the faitliful few, and with their pecuniary embarrassment, thre^atened to overwlielni them with shame and scatter them in confusion. There has never been a time in the history of Methodism in Chicago when false bretluvn, wicked men, and tempting devils seemed so near the accomplishment of its destruction as at this period. The faithful ones felt thev were the scoff and the scorn of the wicked and the reproach of the gooil. Sorrow and shame were written on the faces of all who revered religion and loved the church. They were abashed in the presence of the trood and of the bad. Deep was the humility in which God sunk his children for their want of fidelity against the allurements of worldly wealth. He took his fan in his hand, blessed be his name, not to sweep awav, but to purge and purify his church. At the conference of 1837, in answer to the pravers of his children for a Joshua to lead them out of the wilderness, God sent the Rev. Peter R. Borien, of blessed memory, whose name never falls upon our ear that an holy influence comes not with his memory. During the winter of 1837-8 quite a number were converted— some of whom are with us still— but comjiared with the succeeding vear the work wa« limited. At the conference of laSS he was returned to this charge, and, owing to our poverty, John Clark, our then Presiding Elder, procured for us a missionary appropriation for that year. The little church was removed from" the north side of the river to" the present location of Clark Street Church, and was enlarged to double its size. In December, a revival commenced, deep, widespread and powerful. From this time until April, Brother Borien held meetings every niglit and frequently during the day. Night after night, with tireless" zeal, he poured forth the arrows of God's truth, all flaming with love divine, and day after day he followed the smitten sinner to his home, into his shni) and even pursued him to the haunts of dissipation, and with pleadings' entreaties and a yearning love that seemed almost resistless, besought hini in Christ's stead to be reconciled to God. The house, from first to last, was crowded to its utmost capacity, and the altar was thronged Avith in- quiring and penitent souls. The Spirit of God seemed to pervade the very atmosphere. Religion was the absorbing theme of thought and con- versation in private and in public places. There were more than three hundred converted in our church, most of whom united with us, which was alx)ut one-tenth of the whole population. But his Master had determined to call his faithful servant home— he was ripe for heaven, he had kept the faith, his course was finishcil. his crown was ready.

In 1840-41, the Rev. Hooper Crews was stationed here. Pros- gerity and conversions attended both years of his administration. Tlie oiise again became too small, and was enlarged to nearly double its former caijacity. In 1842, th'e Rev. N. P. Cunningham was appointed preacher in charge. The house was again becoming too small, and it was resolved to 22 METHODISM IN CHICAGO. colonize in some other part of the citv the succeeding year. ^^ ith this view, in 1S43. tlie Rev. Luke Hitchcock was appointcl preacher ui charge and the Kev. Ahram Hanson, assistant. Tlie lot on whuh nld Canal Street Churcli (now Centenary) stood, was purchased, and a lioiise erected. Durintr the winter, tlie health of Brother Hitchcock faded, and he was compelled to leave his charge. The Presiding Elder, Hooper Crews, then residing at Soutliiwrt, removed to this city, antl vvitn Brother Hanson supplieil the two congregations. About seventy-live members went to Canal Street but it was determined the two societies should constitute one charge, and the leaders and stewards meet in one hoard. At the conference of 1841, under the same arrangement, the Uey. Win. M. D. Hvan was transferred from Ohio, ami made preacher in charge, and the Kev. Warren Oliver was appointed assistant.^ During the winter of lS44-4.'>, a verv general revival occurred. Clark Street be- came crowded bevond the convenient capacity of the house. It had been enlartred and patched up so many times, it was tound there was danger that it miuht fdll. Brother Ryan urged the necessity ot buihlimt a permanent house of worship. To this eml his ui resolved to sell a sufficient number of the seats in the new h.iu.-e to cover the cost, at the appraisal of the ti-ustees, who ccnitracted lor the erection of the buildiIl!,^ ami the linishiivu- of all but the basement, ir'^000 pavable on the completion of the (■(mtract. and the balance im one > eir, the house to be 98 ft. in. bv fi<; ft.

From the amount raised at the dedication, the sale oi seats and other means, the trustees were able to meet present ileniamt- on the contract. The whole cost wa.s about $12,000, and it was all paid as it became due. ,, , „. ^ i n, d .. In 184.-) Canal Street was separated from Clark Street, and the Ke^. Sias BoUes appointed their prea(dier. Brother Ryan was. returne t to Clark street In 184ti, the Kev. Chauncev Ilobart succeeded him, and Sias Bolles was reappointed to Canal Street. Previous to the conlerence of 1847, a number of members determined to lorm another church on tlie north side of the river. Thev purchased two lots on Indiana street ami erected a verv neat chapel, aiul solicited a preacher at the ensuiii;- con- ference In"]847, the Kev. Philo Judson was stationed at t lark street, theRev. O. BroBsonat Canal Street, and the Kev. Freeborn H:^nPy "Y Indiana Street. In 184-*, Rev. Richard Haney was appointed to C lark Street, Uev. R. A. Blauchard to Canal Street, an.l the Kev. John Devoe to Indiana Street. The onlv (diange made in 184it was that ot the substi- tution of Rev. Zailock Hall at Indiana street for Devoe. About the vear 18.5-2, the P.ook Depository and ihe 2^wthuestein Christian Advocate were authorized to be established m this city.

The history of Methodism in this city from its mcipiency in 1S31 till ahout the year 1850, is really that of Clark Street or tne First Church, and will be found iinder the heading "History of Methodism in Chicago," by Hon. Grant Goodrich, in another part of this volume. Below will be found a continuation of the list of those pastors who have served this charge since that time, and following that, an outline sketcli of the principal events that have marked her history as an in- dividual churcli society. In 1S50, Stephen P. Keyes was sent to this charge, and in 1852 was followed by John Clark, who died toward the close of his second year (July lltli), greatly beloved. Hooper Crews, former presiding elder, then had charge from 1854 to 1856. James Baume then served from 1856 to 1858. Bro. W. F. Stewart succeeded him in 1858. O. H. Tiffany came next, remaining two years, from 1860 to 1862. During tliree months of Dr. Tiffany's term, the church enjoyed the services of the late Dr. T. M. Eddy, whose loss was so keenly felt, and whose decease was so deeply mourned throughout the entire church. The year 1862-63 was filled by F. D. Hemenway. From 1863 to 1866, Charles H. Fowler, who was the first man ever returned for the tliird year, was tlie instru- ment of the accomplishment of no ordinary good. W. C. Dandy was sent to serve the church in 1866-67; and from 1867 to 1869, John A. Gray was in charge, serving the whole of his first year, and but half of liis second, and resigning, was substituted by J. M. Reid, who filled out the remain- ing six montlis of the second year. Succeeding Gray came W. H. Daniels, who served a term of three years, from 1869 to 1872. He was followed by H. W. Thomas in 1872, who was succeeded in 1875 by S. A- W. Jewett. In 1876, two pastors wore sent by conference to this cliarge, and are the present incumbents of the office — M. M. Parkhurst and W. A. Spencer. At a meeting of the society in October, 1846, all the then trustees ten- dered their resignations, which were accepted, and Judge Grant Good- rich, William "Wheeler, Jabez K. Botsford, George Reynolds, and Amos S. Seelev were elected to constitute a new board. In 1851, Orrington Lunt and J. C. Outhet were elected trustees to fill the vacancies of Bros. Reynolds and Seelev, and the other members of the board were re- elected. The same board were re-elected in 18i55, without change. At this time and thereafter tlie question of the improvement of the lot began to be considered with a view to retain a place of worsliip in the heart of the city, and at the same time make the valualile lot available for church extension purposes. Through much consideration and prayer, all views were finally harmonized upon a plan to erect a business Dlock, the lower portion of which should be devoted to commercial and so FIRST M.E. CHURCH. Imsiness purposes, for revemic, and the upper portions to a place of ■worship. A charter for this piir\iose was ohtaiucrl by act of the lefjisla- ture Feb 14, 1S57, hy which tlie name of the society was chanseil to "The First Methodist Episcopal Church of Chicago." By provisions of this charter the trustees were authorized to borrow money to erect the building, and the revenues were to be devoted, first, to paying the debts incurred in evectins the buildina;, and then for the purpose ot Iniying lots and buildins; other churches in the city. Under this charter the board of trustees was enlarged to seven, and on the 0th ot August, 1858, Mr J C. Outhet having resigned. Grant (loodrich, J. K. Botstord, AVilliam Wheeler, and O. Lunt were re-elected, and J. V. Farwell, J. W. Waughop and John Havward, were a.lded to them. Under the pro- visions of their charter, the trustees borrowed fitty thousand dollars ot the London and Liverpool Fire and Life Insurance Company, and twentv thou.sand dollars upon bonds guaranteeil by themselves imhvidu- allv. With these funds a building, from plans of E. Burling, was erected in 18.58, at a cost of seventy thousand dollars. _ The years immediatelv following were years of great busmess de- pression "and it required "the utmost care and economy of the trustees to pay interest, taxes, insurance, and keep even, without paying the principal of the debt, or appropriating money to new church enterprises. The annual and semiannual reports of the treasurer show constant ad- vances made by himself, to meet maturing obligations. "With less careful and faithful mi?n tomanaae, the property would have been in great peril. Havin"- in view the great objects of their trust, as soon as the increase of their rciits and diminishing' debt would warrant, the trustees began to turn their attention to the crv of struggling churches. In February, 1865 before the lirst twentv thousand dollars was paid on the building, we 'find them resolvinsr, in" response to an earnest appeal, that they would look with great favor upon the application of the "W est Indiana Street Church for aid, and that so soon as the lot bought on Indiana avenue (for what is now the Trinity congregation, and what was then a mrt of Chirk Street) was paid for, and a parsonage bought tor Clark Street, the application of the West Indiana Street Church should be first on the list. -^r ^, t .^ • » n t From this time to the present nearly every Methodist society tliat has been organized in this city has received pecuniary aid, to a greater or lesser de"-ree from the funds of this church. In all, over seventy thousand dollars had been paid to other churches in the city, before the great fire, for the purposes of church extension. Under the modified chnrterof l.^w, tirant (ioodrich, A\ lUiam Wheeler, ■V R Scrauton, J. K. Botstord, O. I-unt, J. W. Waughoji, James G. Ham- ilton John Havward, and Kobert Shephard were elected trustees. Few chan'o-es have" occurred since. Altiro E. Bishop in place ot Robert Shephard, J. \'. Farwell in place of O. Lunt, and Charles Busby m nlaceof J V Farwell, and at the commencement ot the year 18/3, R. F. bueal in place of James G. Hamilton, are all. Substantially the same men Avho cared for the business interests of the chuvcli thirty years ago are still infiuential in its care and control. William Wheeler is president and J K Botsford is treasurer of the board, as they were twenty-eight years a^'o Ten davs after the great fire the trustees met on the nuns, and a committee was appointed to procure plans for examination ot the board To their great gratilication the trustees found the carelul treas- urer iiad lar'^elv placeil the insurance on the buihling and organ in solvent cmp'ani'es. On November 10, the trustees resolved to re-erect their building with a stone exterior. On Anril 5, 1872, plans prepared l)y E Burling A: Co., architects, were adopted by the board, and on April .-», the princinal contracts were let for its rebuilding. FIRST M.E.

Tliese young men are fully adeijuate to the taslc. Let them be as true to the interests of their sacred cliarge as were tlieir fathers, and if they prove not recreant to the solemn trust transmitted to their care, the future conduct of the church cannot tail to meet the smile of God's affectionate approltation, and the blessings of his unbounded goodness. ]ohn Collins Sf €0,^ iq6 (olark Street.

As a historical curiosity we have prepared a quan- tity of Colored Album Picture Cards of " Old Abe," the War Eagle, which was carried alive alonfj^ with the colors of the Eighth Wisconsin regiment in the late war. This picture has a history, as shown by the following- extract from the official report ot the last great Sanitary Fair for the sick and wounded soldiers, held at Chicago in 1S65: "A very original mode of raising money for the Fair 'was devised by Mr. Alfred L. Sewell, a I'ubhstier in 'Chicago. Upon the history of "Old Abe.' an eagle 'that had accompanied a Wisconsin regiment through 'the war, he based the idea ot forming, tor children, 'what he called the 'Army of the American tagle.' 'Colored pictures were struck off. of tbi-^noblespeciinen ' of the bird of Jove. The child who jiaid ten < ents for 'one of these -was to be considered a jirivate, while the ' investment of certain other small sums was graduated 'so as to secure the dignity of different commissioni m 'the Army of the American Eagle. The children were ' charmed with the ingenious device, and gave such e vi- ' deuce of their desire to aid the cause, that this little 'instrumentality alone netted the Fair the sum of pl\- 'teen thousand three hundred and eight dpU.irs anil 'ninety-three cents (SlG,o08.93). which was-. more than 'was paid by any other department, and was nearly 'one-tenth of the entire profits of the Fair." Any person who will send nu a three cent stamp to pay expense of mailing, will receive free, by mail, one dozen of these fancy colored picture cards. They will be prized by your friends as a souvenir ot what children and young folks can do. Address, ALFRED L.

Man- deville. HISTORY. )N THE FALL OF 1S6S, REV. S. G. LATHROP, who was at that time Superinteudeut of the " Sabbath School aud Missionary Society of the M.E. Church of Chicago," in company with Rev. S. A. W. Jewett, then pastor of the Trinity M.E. Cliurch, made a tour of inspection through the southern portion of the city, and the northern part ot Hyde Park, with reference to the establisliment of religious services in connection with the M.E. Church in that field. It seemed to them that there was an open door, and they so reported to the Board of Managers of the above named society. The board directed its Superintendent to proceed to the "estal)Ushment of such services. The first meeting of members of the M.E. Church residing in the I'.eld, and other friends of the enterprise, for consultation, was held at the house of Bro. M. Van Allen, on Cottage Grove avenue, near Waupanseh avenue. At this meeting it was decided to hold public religious services on Sabbath evenings at the house of Bro. Wm. H. Rand, and one week-evening service each week, at such private residences as might lie found convenient and agreeable. Tliese services were at once established. This occurred in the month of Oc- tober, 1868. The social meetings were held at the resiliences of Bretliren Otis, Brown, Copeland, Goodrich, and Swann. The public service was held regularly at the house of Bro. Rand, until the middle of February, 1869, when, the congregation having steadily increased, it was found ^^ 64 LANGLEY AVENUE M.E. CHURCH. necessary to secure a larger x>lace, and the public service -was trans, ferred to Cleaver Hall, corner of Brooks street and Brexel Boulevard, and morning service, as ■well as evening, held. On the 7th of March a church organization was effected, consisting of -21 members in full con- nection and 6 probationers. On the 14th of March two members and one probationer were received, and on the 14lh of April eight members and one probationer, making at that date a total membership of 31 in full connection, and seven probationers. All tliese probationers were, in due time, received into the church in full connection. Tlie organiza- tion took the name of the Oakland M.E. Church. On the 14th of March, a Sabbath School in connection witli the church, was organized. W. H. Rand was elected its Superintendent, Robert Tliacker, Secretary, John H. Trumbull, Librarian, and Lyman Trumbull, Assistant Librarian. The first baptism was that of Charles O. Rider, infant son of Wm. F. and Clara Rider, on April 4, 1869, by Rev. S. G. Lathrop. The lirst class- leaders appointed by Rev. S. G. Lathrop were Asahel Otis and Alfred Harvey, April 11, ISd'J. The first quarterlv conference was held April 27, 1869", by Rev. Hooper Crews, P. E. of the Chicago District. At this conference, A. V. Brown, James N. Thacker, John Kourse, Aaron J. Goodrich and J. Ramsey Flood were elected Stewards. Rev. S. G. Lathrop, having been appointed Superintendent of Methodist Missions in Montana Territory, resigned his work in connection with the Sabbath School and Missionary Society of the M.E. Church of Chicago, his resignation taking effect May 1, 1869. At this date the Rev. C. E. Mandeville, of Connecticut, was appointed by the presiding elder to the jjastorate of this church. Mr. Mandeville entered at once upon his work, preaching his first sermon on the first Sabbath morning of May, from the text "Receive Us," and his last on the evening of October 8, 1871, from the text "Amen." This evening will ever be memorable in the history of Chicagoas the evening of the commencement of the great fire. The first communion service occurred July 29. 1869. At the quar- terly conference, held Julv 28, a lesal orsanizaf ion of the churcli was effected, and W. H. Rand," A. F. Brown, T. G. Otis, T. Priest, and C. DeWolf were elected Trustees. The first death that occurred was that of Sister Mary Swann, October 9, 186V). In the spring of 1870, the chuixh lots, on the corner of Lansley avenue and Tliirty-ninth street, were purchased for the sum of $10,000. This sum was siibsequently paid by the Board of Trustees of the First M.E. Church. Februarv 24, 1871, the first load of lumber was delivered on the church lots, and on the morn- ing of the 25lh the first blow was struck toward the erection of the church building. This work was. completed in the following August, and on the 6th day of August the dedicatory services were held with rejoicing— Rev. Drs. Reid, Fowler, and Haven preaching on the occasion. The debt at this time was $5,500, all of which was subscribed. The church is two stories, the first floor divided into a most beautiful lecture room, two class-rooms. Sabbath School library room, and pastor's study. The main Auditorium is reached by two flights of winding stairs. Tlie capa- city of the audience room is about 500. A beautiful rose window in the center of the front, with one arched on either side, also six arched windows on either side of stained glass furnish the light of day, and three large chandeliers the light for evening. The audience room is beautifully frescoed and has an alcove back of the pulpit for the organ and choir. " The church both down stairs and up is handsomely furnished, the floors being carpeted and the seats cushioned. The total cost of the building and furnishings was $12,000. The great fire, together with the panic which so soon succeeded it, crippled the members of the church, and friends of the enterprise, so that a portion of the subscrip- tions made upon the day of dedication has never been coUectea. LANGLEY A VENUE M.E. CHURCH. 65 Notwithstanding this failure in making: collections, the church has been able to meet its obli2:atious, leaving at this time an indebtedness not exceeding$2,000— $400 of which has been recently incurred torrepairs. Rev. C. G. Truesdell was appointed at the conference ot 1871 as Mr. Mandeville's successor. He entered upon his work in the midst ot the excitement of the lire, and was immediately sent abroad by the Metho- dist Church of the citv to solicit aid for the tire sufferers. Ot the amount raised bv him in Iowa, $500 was appropriated to this church to assist in putting in heaters, etc. Much of Mr. Truesdell's time was taken up m the relief work, until in June, 1872, when he was elected Superintendent of the llelief Society. From that tune until the conter- ence of 1872, he continued to serve the church as its pastor, but gener- ously remitted his .salar v. Rev. J. F. Yates succeeded Mr. Truesdell. He remained but one Vear. At the conference of 187.3, Rev. Lewis Meredith was appointed to the pastorate. He remained two years. At the conference of 1874 he reported 152 members, 3 probationers, 90 scholars, and 21 officers and teachers in the Sabbath School. At the con- ference of 1875 he reported: members, 164; probationers, 8; Sabbath School scholars. i)5; teachers and officers, 21. In 1875, W. C. Willing, D.D., succeeded Mr. Meredith, and he also remained two years. Dr. Willing was appointed P. E. of the Chicago District at this conference, and the Rev. T. C. Clendening succeeded him in the pastorate. The encourage- ment which has thus far attended his ministry gives promise that his record will be creilitable to himself and to his fellow-laborers in the good work. In 1869, at the appointment of Mr. Maudeville, the charge was known as ST. John's, and continued to be so known until at the appointment of Mr. Truesdell in 1872, its original name of Oakland appears again. It was known by this name until 1875. At the appoint- ment of Dr. Willing its present name of Langley Avenue appears. ALPHABETICAL LIST OF MEMBERS. Abercrombie, Mary, 168 39 th Abercrombie, Annie, 168 39th Arms, Geo.

These all went down in the storm, anil the ability of the society to pay largely decreased. The trustees soon began to fear that they would not be able to meet the en- gagements they had entered into— and this ajiprehension was by no means grouiuUess, for when upon the maturity of an installment due on the lot recently contracted for, payment was demanded, there were no funds, curreiit'expenses, reduced by the strictest economy, absorbing all resources. The trustees were now obliged to mortgage the Indiana street lot as additional security for the sums due upon the new one, and GRACE M.E. CHURCH. 79 as was clearly foreseen, the result of this was (to anticipate a little) that both lots were saoriticed to satisfy these claims, having nothing but the equity of redemption, should there be any. The society determined to pay their debts as longas thev had anything to pay with, and pledged their whole property for this purpose. The flnal outcome was that the lots were sold by the mortgagees, the full claims against the society vvere paid, with Interest and costs, and $1,087.85 was paid into the church treasury. Brother Lathrop served the church faitlifuUy for two years, and several who joined it iinder his ministry remain as active members to the present time. A <;hange in the pastorate again occurred in 18.W, Brother Lathrop's time having been reached, an succeed liini, October, 1867. The following summer the new cluircli, having been linislied and furnislie I, was dedi- cated. Drs. Hatfield, Fowler and Tiflany officiating, morning, afternoon, and evening, in the order named. The report of the treasurer at tliat time showeil that about $.'57,0{)0 was necessary to pav the indebtedness of the trustees, and this large sum was subscribed to the great joy of its friends, who had with sublime faith long looked for tliis happy "con- summation of their desires. In tlie realization of material and spiritual prosperity following the years of efl'ort, which have been but hinted at, the congregation contentedly enjoyed the ministrations of Dr. Jutkins and of Brother Parkhurst, who followed him in the fall of 1S70. During these years there were constant accessions to the church by profession of faith in the Lord Jesus Christ, and it almost seemed that we were, as a church, nearing the apostolic condition, M'hen the Lord added to the church daily such as should be .saved. In the midst of this blessed fruition, unconscious of danger, sudden and dire disaster came upon us. In the fatal month of October, 1871, the flames wrapjied our stately church in their dread eniljrace, and in a few hours our house of prayer, consecrated by years of sacrifice, was laid low — nf)thing but amass of ruins left to mark the place it had adorned. " Let him that thinketh he standeth take lieed lest he fall" Never was the insecurity of all human things more strongly exemplified. As a church we were suddenly re- duced from aflluence to want. Little time, however, was wasted in lamentations over our destitution. Scarcely had the shock caused by this appalling calamity suljsided when stout" hearts were enlisted in the work of rehabitation." Our indefatigable pastor, eminently the right man in the right place, witli a fidelity and heroism beyond praise, sought out and gathered his flock. Tht? (Irst Sunday after tlie fire a goodly number of the widely-separated brethren convened upon the ruins, were strengthened and cheered by the In-ave words and courageous spirit of the pastor, and, witli one accord, resolveil to stand by the old ship and bring her once again into safe harbor. On Sunday afternoon, Nov. 5, 1871, a meeting was held on the chapel ruins, at which the pastor and a ma- jority of the trustees and stewards were present. It was then and there resolved that imme liate steps be taken to builil a temporary structure, and on December 3, twenty-eight days thereafter, and less than sixty days after the fire, divine service was" celebrated in the new edifice; regularly thereafter the services were continued. During the winter it was resolved to sell the church site, it having become compara- tively inconvenient, and the present site of tliisbuilding was purchased. In June, 1872, the plans for the structure we now occupy were prepared by Messrs. Burling & Adler, and adopted by the society. Work was at once commenced, and in May, 1873, the outside of the building, except- ing the front, was completed— the trustees deeming it wiser to submit to the annoyance of a boarded-up front than to run heavily in debt. The basement was finished, furnished, and opened, the money necessary to pay balances due for construction antl furnishing, $8,000, wasas usual promptly provided and once again the congregation was provided with GRACE M.E. CHURCH. 8J comfortable accommodations. At this third dedication Bishop Foster officiated, assisted by Drs. Fowler, Tiflfany and many others. At the conference of 1S73 the Rev. Dr. Felton was made pastor. His worli is known too well to require our attention. During the last year lie was with us the subject of finishing the front was considered, and at one time a generous subscription was made for the work. The brethren deeming the time had not fully arrived for the work, the project was not pushed to completion. In 1875, Rev. John Atkinson succeeded Dr. Felton. Exliaustive reports of hisdoinge and success have but recently been placed before you. During the latter part of 1876 a subscription- liberal in the extreme— was made for completing the church, and the work was commenced. We now have the privilege of assembling in our new church, finished and complete, for which let us be devoutly thankful. It only remains for lis to express tlie thanks due the friends and patrons of our society, who have with unparalleled generosity given freely the means essential for completing our great work; especially would we remember the munificent grants made by the trustees of the Clark Street Church. Let us not forget these friends, but cherish in our hearts the warmest gratitude to them and to God, who raised them up for us. Of the causes which have contributed to our success, next to God's blessing, we put as chief, the unity of the brethren ; without a discord they have harmoniously worked for one great purpose; standing shoulder to shoulder, seeing eye to eye, they have pushed forward the work, and to-day we celebrate the achievement of our long-cherished object, the free-will offering of our completed temple to Almighty God.

JN THE FALL OF 1S51 a Sabbath School was organized in a school room on Nortli Green street, and Saniuel Polkey became the Superintenilent. In lt^52 a chiirch was organized, and lots were purchased upon the corner of Sannamon and Owen streets. In the fall of 1853, the church received its lirst pastor, apiwinted by the conference, Kev. S. Guyon, who remained two years, and was succeeded in 1S55 liy ]{ev. C. French. The next year Rev. William Taslior wasappiinte I to the church. In 1857 the church secui-ed the services of lle\'. Ar/.a Brown, who remained during the ensuing three years. The name of llie church was changed, I as was that of thestreet, in 1800, and was tliereafter known as the Indiana Street Methodist Episcopal Church, until it was re- moveil from that locality. In IsfiO Rev. Jacol) llartman was appointed to the clmrch. "Rev. D. W. Couch supplied the ensuing -f year. In 1863 Rev. W. D. Skelton became the pastor, and i-emaiiied three years. During iiis term of service the old church gave phu-e e* to a larger and more convenient one, now occupying the same site and used by "the Norwegian Metliodist P^piscopal Church. Rev. Robert IJently Avas appointeil to tlie charsre in li^lili, and was followerl in 18tiS uy Rev. J. llartwell. In 186!) Rev. W. F. Stewart was appointeil to the church. During his pastorate the church building was sold to the society now occupying it, and onr present clmrch upon Ada street was erected. Since th."it time the church has been known by its i)reseiit name. Rev. T. R. Strobridge entered upon the i)astorateof the (diurcli in 1870, and was followe 1 in 1873 bv Rev. W. C. Dandy, who in 1874 gave place to Rev. J. L. G. McKeown. 'in October, 1875, the present pastor received his appointment to this work. We have made noconnnents upon the work of anv of our predecessors. We are not sufliciently familiar with the history of the church to give an accurate account of its progress from year to vear, and were we to do so it might seem to be making invidious distinctfons among brethren equally devoted to their work. We have no doubt all these meu have earnestly labored for the upl)uilding of the church and the glory of God. Some have been more favored by circumstances, and have seen more apparent fruit-, but in the last day we trust all will receive the "well done" of the Mister. Sulflce it to say, that in spile of many serious ol)stacles. the care and sacrilice incident to the erection of three church buildings, the result- ing debts, the unpleasantness engendered by removal from the original site, the embarrassments occasioneil by the linaucial panic which imme- diately succeeded tlie completion of our church edifice, and other and evenmore serious hindrances, the church has gone on working for the good of souls and the glory of God, and is now a most peaceful and prosperous religious organization, with more than three hundred mem- bers harmoniously and efficientlv co-operaling in every good work.

HISTORY. )OMMENCING IX THE YEAR 1858, a few Methodist families, priiici))ally those of Jolin Slielton, Jf)hn Scribner, Wm. Dockrell, and Charles Kadrliff, living west of Union Park, commenced holding weekly prayer-meetings. First at the house of .John Skelton, 3(5 Smith street, and afterward at John Scribncr's, corner of Lincoln and Fulton streets, and tinally at William Dockrell's, on the corner of I'ark avenue and Robey street. These nieetiniis were continuel nearly two years, when the City Mission Society arranged for in'eaching on the afternoon of each Sabbath. The" increasing attendance upon these meetings soon made a larger room a necessity. To meet this want, tiie ChujTh E.xtension Society purchased a lot on the northeast corner of Park Avenue and Robev street, and the society, under the „ direction of Wm. F. Stewart, then City Missionarv, erected a building thereon, 24x44 feet, which was liuished and dedicated by CA.VOSBURGH&CO.

FULTON STREET M.E. CHURCH. 133 HISTORY. t^^^SST^ SABBATH SCHOOL, known as the " Central Park Mission," ^y^^-^Nff was organized in February, 1S72, and held its sessions in a hall on Artesian avenue, north of Fulton street. As the school increased in influence and power, a student from Garrett Bililical Institute, Evanston, was engaged to preach ^ to them. The congregations gathered there were small. Still ^e) the brethren persevered, and God honored their labors. Rev. John Varty was prominent among the young men thus serving. In October the school moved into Good Templars' Hall,'T)n Lake street, near Seymour. At the Rock River Con- ference, then in session atRockford, the Rev. G. L. S. Stuff was appointed pastor. October 31, the Lake Street M.E. Church was organized with 3(5 members, and worshiped in Good Tem- plars' Hall for one year. In June, 1873, the people began to believe a chapel of their own would add to their success. A meeting was called, measures adopted, and a subscription of $2,22o was ob- tained. A Building Committee was appointed, consisting of W. R. Mumford, J. C. Boddy, \Vm. Pugh, C. D. Ramsey, and Geo. AV. Moss. A lot on the corner of Fulton street and Artesian avenue was leased for five vears, and the name of the society changed to the Fulton Street M.E. Church. Work on the church edifice began August 9, 1S7.!, under the superintendence of J. C. Boddy, and was completed in October at a cost of about $1,000, and November 2, 1873, was dedicated to the worship of God. The conference of 1873, held at Mendota, returned Brother Stuff as pastor, and at the end of his second year the society numbered 63 members and 10 probationers. Oc- tober 13, 187-1, the Rev. R. S. Cantine was appointed to the pastorate. Under his labors the congregation impi-oved; the Sabbath School prospered, and many were added to the clnirch. Brother Cantine was returned a second year, at the earnest request of the church. Though pressed by the great financial panic of this year, the society continued to prosper, and good work was done for the Slaster. At the close of his second year. Brother Cantine reported 1.50 full members and five proba- tioners." October 18, 1870, Rev. S. M. Davis succeeded to the pastorate, and, though during the year his health became greatly impaired, he labored earnestly and successfully as a true minister of Christ. During a part of the summer of this year,' Brother Davis was ably supplied by E. B. Lonsburv. At the close of the year the records called for 151 full members, and 26 probationers. In October the services wei-e suspended for two weeks, and the auditorium neatly frescoed, and the entire building thoroughly repaired. In all these labors the Ladies Aid Society rendered valuable assistance. October 16, 1877, Rev. AVm. H. Holmes became pastor. Every department of the church now augurs only prosperitv. The marvelous success and unusual blessings, God has made this" society the participants in, and the recipients of, places added responsibility on each member. It is expected that each one will do his and her whole duty in a spirit of self-sacrifice and devotion, that this year may be more marked than any previous one by aggressive work for the Master. 784 FULTON STREET M.E.

Church was really commenred aseavlv as 1SH3, when there was visitins ii'om house to house; the holding of Cottage prayer mc ■tings, and in the summer, open-air meetings, by members ot Briilgeport (now Siiupson) M.E. Church, assisted by students from the Biblical Scliool at Evanston. Then only a few families lived in the i)resent territory workeil by Halsted Street Chnrch-which contains a population ot about 20,000 to 25,000 persons. These meetings continued until August, 1866, when a Sabbath School was organized and a hall rented for its acQommodation on the corner ot Halsted and Twenty-second streets. \.X. its organization. , several members of Bridgeport M.E. Church were present, \\ also the pastor. Rev. E. S. Todd, who subseque^ntly went as if missionary to China. The school soon increased to an average V of 400. It continued in the hall until the tail ot W,/, T when was completed a chapel, the building ot which was superintended bv Rev. S. G. Lathiop, then City Missionary. In \m\ a large addition was made to the chapel, ^yhlch met tic wants of Che neighborhood until the fall ot l^-o when the present building was commenced by the ien trustees named w above-nine of whom assumed personal liability T'le ninetj - seven feet of ground, which was purchased xu 18b7, is entirely covered HALSTED STREET M.E. CHURCH. 189 with the building:, in which are four stores, several nflices, a hall and an audience room on the second floor of suflicient size to seat 1000 persons and so constructed that, bv means of sliiling doors, it can be divided into thirteen compartments for Sabbath school purposes, etc. The rent of the stores, ollices, and hall provides for the interest, insurance, repairs etc., and leaves a small amount to apply on the building debt. After the debt is paid the income wi 1 be used in the Lord's work in the crowded portions of the city. The church society is out of debt, except for current expenses. During: the construction of the building thev worshiped in the old building and in a store, corner of Halste 1 anil Evans streets. At this date, Januarv, 187ts, i he congregation averages about 1.50 to 200 in the morning, an 1 :m to 400 in the evening, and fhe Sabbath school about 000, with a membership of over 800. The pastors have been Rev. S. G. Lathrop, Thos. Craven— now in India preachin" the gospel— Rev. A-Touker, Rev. Samuel Paine, Rev. S. Washburn, Rev" H. Hill, and the present pastor. Charles Cook, now missionary to the Indians in Arizona, did valuable work by way of visitation, cottage meetings, child. en's meetings, etc., and was the instrument in leading many to Christ. The above is only a brief historv of the work vil that has been done that has been of real value has been by the great Head of the Church through his consecrated people. To Him be all the glory, with a prayer that we mav all receive a greater baptism of the Holy Spirit for service, and that the result of future work may be the salvation of many. alphabeticaTliSTo^^ A.

Kesidence: 225 Campbell Avenue. mSTORYT^ >IHIS chnrch society Avas organized the latter part of July, 1872. The iirst service was held in front of the residence of Mrs. Wilson, on Western avenue, corner of Thirty-lifth street. The following week the society obtained the use of the upper room of the Brighton public school building, where services where held for some months, at 4 P.M., under the charge of Rev. Henry Hill, then filling an appointment at Simpson M.IS. Church — he kindly consenting tocome up to preach for this society jV, previous to service in his own church in the evening. He was fol- 1 lowed by several transient preachers, until the spring of 1873, "' when Rev. Brother Wakeman, a local preacher, then living in Chiciigo, supplied the pulpit until the fall of the same year. During Brother Wakeman's administration the present church edifice was erected at a cost of about $2,500. After this time the pulpit was supplied successively bv Rev. IJrothers Cowan, Carr, and Herrick (local preachers, and students at the Theological Institute atEvanston), until the present conference vear. During the present conference year of 1877-78, the services are "in charge of the Rev. Thos. C. Matlack (local preacher), formerly of the Western Avenue M.E. Church. Preach- ing services are held morning and evening, and Sabbath School in the afternoon. The church building is all paid for, but the people are laboring undera very heavy burden in the shape of an encumbrance of $2,000 on the church lots. The Sabbath School has an average attendance of about thirty. ALPHABE^nCATTlsFoFllEMBERS. Benjamin, Mr>:.
