THE following ls an excerpt from
f'The Circuit Riders" contributed by
Bishop Hamilton to The Youths
Companion. 1t treats of early times
in the West, and standing prominent
ly out is the contrast between the I'M
selfish devotion of good men then
and the lucre- scooping Sundays,
Scovilles, Burks, Hobbses, and lesser
evangelical lights of to-day.
Into those conditions of life came
an order of itinerant preachers and
teachers, like the prophets of old, to
meet the exigencies of the times.
President William Henry Harrison,
in describing the ''circuit riders"
wrote thus: "They are men whom no
labor tires, nc scenes disgust, no dan
ger frightens, in the discharge of their
duty. To gain recruits for their Mas
ter's service they sedulously seek out
the victims of vice in the abodes of
misery and Indebtedness. The vow
of poverty is not taken by these men,
but their conduct is precisely such as
it would have been had they taken
one; their stipulated pay is barely
sufficient to perform the service as
signed them. With much the larger
portion, the horse, which they can
call their own, and the contents of
their valise or ~saddlebags, are the sum
total OF their earthly possessions"
