Bryant, is perhaps L j the most courageous layman in the A f r i c an Methodist Episcopal J church. Coming out of one of the e : humble parsonages'of Alabama ' where he had seen the .sufferings v; of his father and mother at the : hands of unthinking and heartless ! bishops, there grew up in the lad e a dislike for anything that looked i like tyranny and oppression, and i with this in mind, he soucht to j expose those who?HTe placed at i the head of the flock of God, when-. . eve^ their actibns lead to increasj ing the burdens of the humble minister of the gospel and the ! poor laymen in his church."
