A Short History of Me By M. W. In gathering the facts which I t have embodied in the following para- t graphs, I admit in the beginning that 1; I had two motives. The first and r foremost was to find out these r things for my own satisfaction. The > second was that they might be put 1< in such order tjbat others who might I be interested in such things might k not have to make as much effort to b find them out as I have been required } to make. I believe that every com- b munitv has within its borders at i: some time or other some people who r take a pride in keeping up witn wnat d has transpired within their midst. It a is nothing strange that a history of a the Methodism of Bamberg and vi- 1 cinity should be written; it is no a great' matter to the outside world n whether or not it is ever written, b But to our own selves we owe it to preserve what we now have in books o and in memories of those who have j t! been living here for many years, so o that those who come after us may c know what has been the history of E Methodism as relating to their own ^ ; . folk. 1 So with the forgoing given for E what it may be worth, I shall give as i C * ~ ? *?i +i Drieny as possiuit; sumc iav;is ^ figures regarding our church and our * Sunday-school. ^ In Dr. Chreitzberg's book, "Early n Methodism in South Carolina," we y find what will cover the history of aj this entire section for many years it previous to the establishing of a P church in our own immediate com- 1 munity. As far as we are able to T make out, this neighborhood was em- tl braced for many years in what is b< known as the old Edisto circuit. But c? in 1834' it was incorporated in the tl old Walterboro circuit, with part of M it in old Barnwell circuit, it being y< likely that more of this section ad- di joining Bamberg was incorporated di in Barnwell circuit, for Dr. Chreitz- le berg mentions Binnaker's camp aj ground as a part of Barnwell.. In di speaking of this old camp meeting ti place Dr. Chreitzberg mentions it as w the gathering place of thousands who ci were delighted by the gospel as given ai to them by such men as H. N. Mc- Pi Tyiere, afterwards bishop, and of Joseph Moore and Reddick Pierce. \ But to come down to the point p? where we realize that the earth is firm under our feet and that we are ta not dealing longer in surmises or ru conjectures, but with facts, we reach in 1853 when according to good au- of thority Major W. Seaborn Bamberg, R, ; ^ for whom this place was named two pC' years after the founding of the church, decided that he would urge the establishment of a church here. So in 1853 the lot which is now used as "Restland Cemetery" was|v puchased for $75.00 by Major Bam-. *CQ berg, Dr. Raysor, and Mr. J. J. eD Barnes. The building was soon i is afterwards erected. And it must be m borne in mind that it was the general business nanagement of the Metho- aI dist church which caused Major Bam- ^ berg to offer the building to the or Methodists, for as he is said to have remarked, he liked the manner in ^ which the Methodists took care of a charge which was not able to care w for itself. Major Bamberg was not W( at that time a member of our church. se In a few years afterwards the first _ Bamberg circuit was formed, and in ' the annual conference of 1857 our .. ^ first pastor was assigned to come to Bamberg. The parsonage was soon erected and was located on what is now known in Bamberg as Bridge street, being just at a point where W( Mr. i?Tea w. jcree lives m preseut. ^ This building was later destroyed by ftr fi^e- na Who was our first minister? That ga certainly must be of interest to all of us. An old fashioned, circuit- in riding, class-leading gentleman who M came direct to this country from old Qr Ireland, the late Reverend Hugh A. } C. Walker, who died in 1886 after ^ having served for over a half a cen- q( tury as a pastor in the Master's ^ cause. Mr. Walker was followed in 1859 by Rev. Geo. W. M. Greigliton, and he in '60 and '61 by Rev. Will- in iam Crook. We can connect the gc name of this pastor with the present te time by referring to a grand-son W( who taught in our Fitting School se several years ago and who is now a se minister himself, Reverend William m Crook Owen. The four years thus ^ covered by these three pastors, were served by a presiding elder who to Sg this date holds the record for long al service given to the people of this fo community, that was my grand fath- tu er, Rev. William Pledger Mouzon. j Just at this point it might be of inter- V est to state that Mr. Mouzon served *,e this people for fifteen years, twelve of which he was presiding elder and the ^ other three as pastor of this circuit.' I desire to incorporate one or two facts relative to this man which are of especial interest to the wTriter, ea and which I trust may not be otherwise to others. In looking up the statistics which are being given here- ve with, I discovered that Mr. Mouzon served one year, that of i.871, as te financial agent of Wofford College; in he served as trustee of that institu- in tion from 1862 to 1880; he served ^ as a preacher for forty-six years, sa thirteen of which was spent on dis- p, tricts, and the balance of which was Sg divided among circuits, poor charges as the world reckons such things, n( and desirable places reckoned from the same view point. The pastors cj who were located here while the civil jj. war was in progress were Dr. Thos. a< Raysor and Dr. A. J. Stokes, each ^ having been here for two years. The w heart aches and the suffering which p] these men of God must have been Sl called upon to console, must have been many, but the after lives of these men, make us feel that they were true-hearted and whole-hearted n< in the great times of need. Without d< going through the list at this point, lc ' we will pass on until the dark days d; of 1876. "Uncle Paul" Kistler is a tl name familiar to the old generations, cl as well as many of the younger peo- sc pie, for anyone can tell you some- li thing about him. He must have s? been heart and soul with the "boys b; of '76" for ask any one of that time, fi! and they say yes "Uncle Paul" Kist- ui ler was there. Then we place an- ai other milestone at 1886, and all the s( folks remember that Rev. T. E. Mor- s< ris was here. That was the year of tc N r /"V. - r * > LYV thodism in Bamberg Brabham he earthquake. Thus it seems thi he calamities emphasize the popi arity or need, or what ever else yo nay choose to call it. When tt lame of Rev. J. L. Stokes, now i Corth Augusta, is reached, the reco action of the writer comes to his ai< )r. Stokes's son, Marion, afterwarc nown as a college mate, was injure ty a falling piece of scantling whe lr. R. L. Risher's present home wa ieing built. In this year also, tha 5 1891, Rev. Thos. Leitch held evival service here, and that sam >oy Marion united with the churc nd he is now serving his Maker a , missionary in far off Korea. I 895 the beloved Dr. Elwell cam nd stayed two years. Well do I r< aember the first of those two yeai ecause of personal sorrow. But to revert back to another lin f fVi/Mio>Vi+ ar\ arinthpr nha*p r JL HlV/U{jUV WV VUMV MUWUV. r ?- he history may be followed. Whe ur circuit was first formed it wa omposed of Trinity (this church; iuford's Bridge, or as it was knowr lizpah, Andrews Chapel, moved i 885 to what is known as Pleasan [ill, and Zion. We were then i harleston district. Things remaine hus until 1866 when the district ere changed and Bamberg circui as in Blackville district. T)his di ot continue longer than the on ear, for in 1867 Charleston distric gain found our people nestling with i its borders. Bamberg district ap ears in the minutes for the yea 868 and so continues until 1872 he two presiding elders who hav le distinction of having served Bam =rg district are Rev. D. J. Simmons illed by some "Denny," who serve) iree of the four years and Rev. F L. A.CUUCU*, niiu oci feu we vtuv ear in which this place gave th? istrict name. But the old mothe [Strict seems to have been unable t< t the hustling circuit go, for w< jain found ourselves in Charlestoi strict in 1872, there to remain un 1 the present Orangeburg distric as formed and in 1884 Baraberj rcuit was changed to that distric id there we find ourselves at th< esent time. Salaries. The matter of salaries paid to thf istors might be of interest, but a: lis will appear more fully in tfi< ,ble appended, I will only give i inning idea of what has been dons . that direction. The first record ' salary appears in 1869 when Dr aysor was pastor; the circuit com>sed of the four churches, paid Dr aysor $503.11. The following yeai was increased to $600.00. In 1875 ev. P. F. Kistler received $900, and is was the assessment for several iars. The minutes of the annua' inferences being arranged differitly so often, the matter of salaries of necessity given in a differeni anner some years. To illustrat< >e foregoing amounts were listec 1 together for the circuit, but ii >79 we are able to find what eact le of the churches of the circuil lid towards the pastor's salary. Sc rinity contributed about $350.0( .ch year from that year until 188? hen Bamberg and Buford's Bridgs ere made into a circuit by themIves. The salary then paid jointly as $665. In 1893 Bamberg cir JJ. J - e rp_;nu,. >T;-T lit was fumpuscu ui uiuii;, Hiji ih, and Oakland, a small churcl er the river. In 1894 Trinity alone lid $765. In 1896 Bamberg was ised to the degree of a station an*] 3 paid our first pastor for statior ark $800.00. In 1902 we increased e amount to $900. In 1906 to $1,10.00 and in 1908 Bamberg statior lid $1,200.00, which is the presenl lary of the pastor. We have had three church buildgs and two parsonages ' for the ethodists of Bamberg. The churcl iginally built in 1853, mentioned the beginning, the one built about !83 on the spot where Mr. J. H >pe's residence now stands, and ir ?04 the present handsome structure which we worship. To summarize somewhat before gog to the matter of the Sunday hool. There have been only fouren presiding elders to serve this ark, this giving feach an average rvice here of about three years and ven months, but it must be re embered that one man served :elve years and another six. There ive been twenty-one pastors, eacl rving an average of two years anc >out five months. We have had ur ministers who have been re rned to us for four years, one oi "D ft-*Tcr\r% V* ovri r? rr an coc, jl/1 ivajovi , uaviug ovi tvu 01/ ;ars altogether; he served a twc :ar term and then after an inter l1 of six years was returned for ? >11 four years term. There hav( >en four ministers who have stayec ree years. There have been tei istors who have stayed two years ich, this .being made to include Dr aysor's two year term and counting ie present pastor's term as tw< ars. This leaves only four who have ayed but one year. Of the minis rs who have served this charge botl the capacity of pastor and presid g elder we have had four. W< ive had three pastors who bore th< ime surname. There is only on< istor or presiding elder who eve: :rved this work who is buried here tat being Mr. Mouzon. There hai jver been a death of a pastor ii amberg while he was serving thii large. There is one minister ye ring who served this work as lonj ;o as 1880, this one being Dr. T. E fannamaker, of Orangeburg, fron horn the writer recently had th< easure of a letter in regard to thi ibject matter herein. The Sunday-School. But to take up a matter which o ^cessity will have to be more con jnsed than the foregoing, we wil ?ok into something about the Sun ay-school. We may verily believ lat with the establishment of ou lurch that the Sunday-school ha* >mething to do, and therefore it i kely that if it were possible t jcure a complete record of the Sab ath school that we would find i lied full of interest to each one o s. But as the minutes do not giv< ay names relative to the Sabbath ;hool, we will have to content our jives with what we have been abl ) gather from various sources, an* / with statistics gathered from t ' minutes and from other boc >* searched by the writer. All of doubtless remember the recent supi intendents of the school, but to back as far as possible will bring 5^ mind some forgotten names, fo memories of whom perhaps lie d< u mant in the minds of many. ie The first Sunday-school in Ba ^ berg was certainly established befc 1_ the civil war broke out. Some of t 3 ante-bellum superintendents w [S Mr. G. Y. Patrick, father of M d Brickie of this place; J. J. Barm n father of Mrs. Emma Bamberg, a ,o Mr. W. S. Miley, father of Mr. She ^ Miley, of Olar. a After the war passed, the re-esta ie lishing of the Sabbath-school is t h lieved to have taken place about 18 is when the late T. C. Rouis was t n leader of what was then a uni e school, this being the only one 3- the village and attended by all c s nominations alike. The school w held in the old Methodist churc e Mr. Hansford D. Stewart follow >f Mr. Rouis. In 1871 Mr. Andrew n Dibble was made superintendent .s the Methodist Sunday-school and i, served for seven or eight years l, that capacity. In a letter from A n Dibble relative to this subject it jays: "I was in charge of Trini n school from the latter part of 187 d September I think, to the year befo :s moving from Bamberg, about eig it years in all. Bro. Charles D. d Adams was my successor, and I thii e served the school until the time :t his death. During my administr - tion the school varied in size, I thij >- from 40 to 60 members. We hi r some faithful workers. I reci !. among them Hansford D. Stewai e Charles D. C. Adams, Capt. Geo. - Patrick, Geo. A.

Brabham, and Miss Mamie Mo 3 zon and Mrs. Dibble, my wife." e As Mr. Dibble says Mr. Adams wi 1 his successor and he served for se ' eral years. Mr. H. C. Folk serv< * the school for two or perhaps thr< ? years. Mr. Folk was followed 1 [ W. G. Sease. Capt. Geo. Bambei 3 served in 1887 and 1888. He wj followed by Capt. W. A. Riley, wl served three years, bringing, his ai j ministration down through 1891. ] s 1892 and 1893 Mr. L. N. Bellinge > whom a great many of us know be i ter by the name of Mr. "Texas" Bel i inger, gave efficient service. Mr. V 1 R. Capers followed Mr. Bellinger aD . remained as superintendent until t - left Bamberg, which was some tin . in 1895. Prof. W. E.

But for the >re present we will pass on and look at he the finances of the school briefly. >re The nresent treasurer. Mr. W. D. rs. Rhoad, has been in that position for es, over fifteen years. Mr. Rhoad has nd week by week deposited the money lly raised by the school in one of our banks and from the books of that institution I have gathered the fol)e_ lowing statistics. Let me say here gg in explanation that some odd amounts were raised for missions and other on special offerings during some of these jn years which it was not possible to inle_ elude herewith. But for the past ~ three years all amounts raised are ? included. '1 Year Amount raised. P 1895 $78.06 ^ 1896 56.67 yt 1897 66.31 1898 47.61 .. 1899 56.44 {; 1900 66.80 J? 1901 65.05 1902 57.69 J"' 1903 > 94.00 !E? 1904 139.32 p 1905 94.04 1906 66.74 ]rf 1907 104.59 ?J 1908 145.68 r; 1909 204.00 ? This makes an even total of $1,343.00 reported, and when the spel| cial amounts not included are taken il' into consideration, the total will cer 1 tainly amount to more than $1,500, or an average of one hundred dollars n,n per year. The fact that our school ra is now raising considerably above T" this average leads me to the con:Le elusion that we are doing better and that we are realizing that our school u" should not lag in the race for spreading the gospel of glad tidings. is By referring to table No. 2 we may v- see that the number of officers and id teachers has been rapidly increased, se As in the other table i. e.
