Not illustrated. 1892 edition. Excerpt: ...in drawing the two bodies into much closer fraternal relations. The Arkansas Conference for 1870 met at Clarksville, October 12. Bishop John C. Keener presided at all of the Conferences in Arkansas this year. This was his first official visit to these Conferences since his election to the Episcopacy. There was a good deal of anxiety upon the part of the preachers to see and hear the new Bishop. Many of them were familiar with his writings, and some few of them had heard him at the sessions of the General Conference and in the army, and had been favorably impressed with his ability, both as a preacher and administrative officer of the Church. These impressions were confirmed at this visitation of the Conferences. The Conferences were soon convinced that he possessed administrative ability of the highest order, and that his pulpit power was equal to that possessed by his gifted colleagues. The minutes show that Nathaniel Futrell, Thomas J. Rey nolds and Edward J. Doune were received on trial in the Arkansas Conference. Jerome Haraldson, Wm. H. Conley, William J. Dodson, B. F. Hall, J. H. Hall, John F. Hall, Charles H. Gregory and H. A. Barnett were received by transfer. Of these H. A. Barnett located in 1871; W. H. Conley is a member of the Arkansas Conference; B. F. Hall died in 1879, and John F. Hall died in 1875. Charles H. Gregory is a member of the White River Conference, and enjoys the confidence of his brethren as a faithful, devoted servant of the Church. The White River Conference was formed out of the eastern portion of the Arkansas Conference, in 1870, and held its first session at Mount Zion Church, in Cross County, September, 1870. Bishop John C. Keener was the President, and James Wickersham, a layman, was Secretary. The...

Excerpt from History of Methodism in Arkansas For a number of years I have greatly desired to see a well-written history of Methodism in Arkansas, and sincerely hoped that some one thoroughly qualified for the work would undertake the task. In 1869, the Little Rock Annual Conference passed this resolution: "Resolved, That the Presiding Elders be, and are hereby constituted, a Committee on the History of Methodism in Arkansas, to collect items of interest connected therewith." If anything ever came of this action of the Conference I have never heard of it. In 1878, or near that time, the White River Conference requested Rev. John M. Steele to undertake the work of preparing a history of Methodism in Arkansas. He immediately began the collection of material for the work, and had succeeded in collecting much valuable information, but was called away by death before it was completed. It was left in such condition that no one else could properly arrange the material he had collected. I have undertaken to gather up the material that has been preserved in the minutes of the Annual Conferences, in District and Quarterly Conference records; in manuscripts written by some of our old pioneer preachers, in articles written for our Church papers; in memoirs of our deceased preachers; in letters from brethren and friends; in incidental allusion found in books, and in conversation with old residents of the State. From the information gathered from all these sources, I have endeavored to present a connected history of Methodism in Arkansas. In many instances where I had to depend upon the personal recollection of brethren, I found the dates to be conflicting, and in such cases I have reconciled the dates as best I could.

Denton County and the City of Denton are named for pioneer preacher, lawyer, and Indian fighter John B. Denton, but little has been known about him. In this extensive, in-depth look into the life and death of Denton, Mike Cochran has made use of new materials not available to previous biographers to help bring the story to life. John B. Denton was an orphan in frontier Arkansas who became a circuit-riding Methodist preacher and an important member of a movement of early settlers bringing civilization to North Texas. He was a participant in the first missionary effort to bring Methodism to Texas, answering a call from William B. Travis to bring Methodists to the new republic. Denton then became a ranger on the frontier, ultimately being killed in the Tarrant Expedition, a Texas Ranger raid on a series of villages inhabited by various Caddoan and other tribes near Village Creek on May 24, 1841. He was leading a small raiding party that had separated from the larger group led by General Edward Tarrant when he was shot by native defenders. Denton’s true story has been lost or obscured by the persistent mythologizing by publicists for Texas, especially by pulp western writer, Alfred W. Arrington, and by the self-aggrandizing stories told by members of the Tarrant raiding party. His death came at a time when entrepreneurs were trying to attract Anglo settlers to the Republic of Texas and were especially apt to glorify the early settlers. Denton was further made a martyr of the church by Methodist historians. Cochran separates the truth from the myth in this meticulous biography, which also contains a detailed discussion of the controversy surrounding the burial of John B. Denton and offers some alternative scenarios for what happened to his body after his death on the frontier. This is the definitive, fact-based biography of John B. Denton.

A Will to Choose traces the history of African-American Methodism beginning with their emergence in the fledgling American Methodist movement in the 1760s. Responding to Methodism's anti-slavery stance, African-Americans joined the new movement in large numbers and by the end of the eighteenth century, had made up the largest minority in the Methodist church, filling positions of authority as class leaders, exhorters, and preachers. Through the first half of the nineteenth century, African Americans used the resources of the church in their struggle for liberation from slavery and racism in the secular culture.
