Who organized the church, and when? These questions mustbe left unan-| swered. : Before the house of worship they had preaching in the academy buildmg a two-story house opposite the present church and par- sonage. It is highly probable that the chnrch was there organized. On the 7th day of May, 1833, Allen D. Nobles sold a one-half acre lot, now Methodists erected a} the western part of the State. Mrs. Mamie Dancy joined the churcli during his past rate, and Ben Warren Brown, who had been converted and had united with the chureh while in school, trans- ferred his membership to Greenville. B. F. Long was appointed to the circuit in 1864, but did not come. John H. Jenkins and Redding Moore preach- ed in Greenville oceasionally during the years 1864-65. On account of the war there was no regular pastor. John §. Long was pastor in 1866-’7. The charge had only two appointments, Greenville and Washington. ever shown in the city. LCS > "HATS.

It was one of the appointments of a very large circuit. T. w. Archie (whether pastor of the chureh or not is unknown) held.a good meeting in 1840 or 1841, resulting in several aceessions to the church, Jeremiah Johnson was preacher in charge in 1846, and W. 8S. Chaffin in 1847. Greenville was then a part of Tarboro charge. The circuit had fourteen appointments and included all of Edgecombe and Martin - counties, Greenville and that part of Pitt county north of Tar river, and parts .of Hal- Beaufort Bro. Chaffin, now superanunated and living ifux and counties. at Jonesboro, writes concerning his pastorate in Greenville: “The size of the congregation was good but not very reverent. The membership. was small, among them were Mrs. Evans, Mrs. Dr. Blow, Mrs. Gould Hoyt, Mrs. Ed. Nelson, another Mrs. Nelson, 8. P. Olds and wife, and the Johnsons in the country.. They were Browns and smong’ the most respectable people in every respect.” Anderson was appointed to the cir- cuit in 1848, William Walsch in 1849, W. L.: Martin in 1850.51, Robert Carson and T. EH. Barrin in 1852 and T. B. Ricks in 1853. At that time it belonged to’ the Williamston - Arcuit which had seven appointments, viz : Williamston, Olive Branch, Mt. Zion, Little’s Chapel, Bethel and Greenville, | Bho. Ricks boarded with | William Williams near Willimmston... He had a good meeting in G veenville that year. His successors were John Jones. and George Wyche in 1854, Halstead, and Oscar Brent in 1855, James and Jef- forsowin 1856, H. H. Gibbons in 1857-58, and Hester in 1859. Hester was a good, studious young man’ but not avery good preacher and would probably have been removed from the circuit but for the influence of a man in the country named Atkinson. Ile was seldom invited into the homes’ of the people, hence whem he came. to his ap- pointments he brought food for his horse and dinner for himself, and often ate his.dinner out of a tin bucket on his buggyor. dn.the steps of the church, N?

In 1869 I found about twenty members in Greenville and but little attention given to religion by the com- munity. Every church was closed ex- cept the Methodist and but few attend- ed that. To Sister Ann Pearce and Bro. B. W. Brown the church is indebted |more than to any others at that time. Godseldom gives the church two more choice spirits. Sister Pearce had two children, Joe and Ada (now Mrs. Cherry).

When that is not the case, it ‘is worse than worthless—as some know to their sorrow. _ Established patronage was never so dear, by which we mean to say that there never was.a time when it cost so much to establish a newspaper, or ‘to maintain one already established. The people of a town should be just as enthusiastic over the success of their home paperas they are over atiy pub- lic enterprise. It is a good. investment.
