Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Jacob Shumate, Vol. 2 of 2: Or the People's March; A Voice From the Ranks
Some of the congregation wanted to spend largely in putting another wing to the church. To them he made reply: 'my good sirs, we do not live by walls of brick and mortar, but by the living agencies that work inside them. My mother has told me that her father heard John Wesley preach in a barn.' The Rev. Silas and his coadjutor, on their part, without compromising themselves by approving everything in the public and business conduct of their leading pew-holder, refrained from joining in any censures of him. Even in regard to the wretched business about the grandson, Mr. Flinders for the most part kept silence, or spoke in the ambiguous way that has been related in these pages.
