d. D., of Morristown, as follows:
Rev. James Midwinter Freeman, D.
D., was born in New York, january,
1927. He came of New England stock.
His mother was an Episcopalian and
his father a Presbyterian. Both We're
converted and joined the Methodist
Church. The subject of our sketch
was educated for a school teacher.
This occupation he followed for a
number of years Among his scholars
was the late DR.. McGlynn. The
natural trend of his mind was religious
and he soon entered the ministry.
For half century he was prominent
in the church work. In 1850 he was
admitted as probationer in the New
jersey Conference and assigned to
the Prospect street church of this city.
Afterwards, with many changes in the
interval he had the Market street
church here. Everywhere he went
the churches grew and fiourished
under his pastorate. When elected
corresponding secretary of the Sunday
School Union of the Methodist Epis-
copal Church he was made editor of
all the Sunday School publications,
For twenty eight years he did an
unusual amount of work in connection
with the Union and Tract Society.
He was corresponding secretary of
the Historical Society of New York
City.
On March 6 of this year he died.
Bishop Vincent spoke of his warm
relationship with the late DR.. Free
man. He never had misunderstand-
ing with his associate. He trusted
him implicitly. Drs. Whitney and
Freeman and the bishop met in New
York, and Dr. Freeman said he was
to deliver the sermon mentioned above
this spring, and the bishop said that
was one of the reasons why he wanted
to come to this conference to preside.
He said 81 loved Freeman. The
world is darker without him, but we
have the blessed assurance of meeting
in the better land.
