The cradle Of American Methodism
was rocked in New York city, tho 61st
society being organised in Barrsck
street, or what is now known - Park
Slace, in March, 1890. There were six
preachers at the first meeting. which
was held in the hired house Of carpen-
ter. Next . rigging loft was rented on
'.Horse and Cart street." now William
street, and there the congregation wor-
shipped until they built the church on
John street, in ITO. (Ths first general
conference Of the Methodists was held in
Baltimore IN 1884 and the Methodist
Episcopal Church Of the United States
formally organized.)
Among the members OF the society
were number Of colored men, prom
incnt with whom was Peter Williams.
He was born in Beekman street and be-
longed to the Boorite family, who owned
his parents as slaves. For years no

street chapel, but when it was deter
mined by his brethren to sever connec-
tion with the mother church, he became
ono Of the founders Of Zion church, laid
its cornerstone in 1901 and was appoint
ed one Of the trustees of the society.

Aeanwhile African Methodist societies
were springing mp In various parts Of
the country, and the first yearly confer
suce ives held June 81, 1891.
Among tho nenes connected with the
early history Of the church and which

From the New Yor Sun
There is at least one boy in this city
who is overjoyed by the news of every
funeral the services of which are to be
held in the church to which he is at
tached. Heis only nine years Old and
is very poor lad, the child of needy
parents. He sings in the church choir,
and whenever the choir is called upon to
sing at funeral he is paid the sum of
81 for his service in it, Yesterday eve
ming he rushed home to tell his mamma
that there were to be two funerals in the
afternoon. He laughed beyond measure
as he shouted: "Good news, MANI two
funerals" He danced and was filed with
bliss over the prospect, He had not
sung at funeral for nearly a week, and
had been disconsolate. His mother. TOO,
was happy over the news, for she needed
money and her husband was out of work.
When the lad returned home with 81
after the funerals, the household was
cheered up and the family got good
dinner.
