Excerpt from The History of Southern Methodism on the Pacific Coast I accepted the duty with no high estimate of my ability to meet the demands of the Conference. I had read much of Church Notory, some of it contemporary history, and from personal ob servation I knew it to he an exceedingly diflicult task to be a correct, faithful historian. I knew there were currents of fact not! Thought into which a historian is liable to drift, sometimes unduly magnifying the actions of men, sometimes giving too great prominence to certain events, sometimes overlooking the true heroes and neglecting the record of events best calculated to reveal the truth.

Book Description
Excerpt from The History of Southern Methodism on the Pacific Coast At the Conference held in Santa Rosa, October, 1877, my brethren of the Pacific Conference, by formal resolution, requested me to prepare the material for a History of Southern Methodism on the Pacific. I was, even then, the only effective member of the Conference who was present at the organization of the body, and who had been intimately and actively connected with it in all of its history. I accepted the duty with no high estimate of my ability to meet the demands of the Conference. I had read much of Church history, some of it contemporary history, and from personal observation I knew it to be an exceedingly difficult task to be a correct, faithful historian. I knew there were currents of fact and thought into which a historian is liable to drift, sometimes unduly magnifying the actions of men, sometimes giving too great prominence to certain events, sometimes overlooking the true heroes and neglecting the record of events best calculated to reveal the truth. Notwithstanding this, at the call of my brethren I undertook the work, and to me it has been "a labor of love." I have lived over again the scenes of other years, and have held communion with the beloved companions whose voices have long since been hushed in death.
