A METHODIST GOVERNOR
Returning north on the east side
Of Asbury's Garden and north over
the Delaware road, one will pass not
far from Line and Sound Churches,
mentioned in Asbury's Journal. At
Selbyville Lives Ex-Governor John
G. TOWNSEND, the Methodist Gov
ornor of Delaware, who in confer
ence love feast declared his great
est honor in life was to be a Metho-
dist class leader. When he assumed
the office of Governor some four
years ago the liquor interests are re-
ported to have approached him 10
prevent his signature to certain
bills. He is reported to have answer
cd in his jovial way, "Boys, if it even
locks dry l shall sign it," and he did
Moreover, he called the Delaware
Legislature in special session and
the Eighteenth amendment was rat
ifed-but even his great power and
popularity could not induce them to
ratify woman suffrage.
Georgetown, The county seat Of
Sussex county, Delaware, where the
Methodist Church claims to have been
organized in 1879. Leaving Lewes
and Rehoboth some 20 miles to the
right, the next town of size is Mil
ford. Some 10 miles further is Fred
erica and famous Barratt's Chapel,
where Coke met Asbury in the aut-
umn of 1884, tefore the Christmas
conference in Baltimore. No lover of
Methodist history has finished his
course till he has visitco this shrine
OF Methodism. Thence he motors
north some 10 more miles to Dover,
the capital of Delaware. Here is the
Wesley Collegiate Institute, secon-
GARY school of the highest grade.
THE GRAVE OF wHATCOAT
Here rest tie remains of Bishop
Whatcoat, the second Methodist bish-
OF in America. Here every spot
seems historical. Some 10 miles to
the west is Thomas Chapel, on Mary
oel Charge, which claims to be the
eldest place of continuous worship
On the Peninsula (Which claim is not
conceded), while northward is Mill
ington, and Holden's Chapel, which
claims to have been built in IT'S.
These two chapels are two neglected
historic points Of Methodism which
should be carefully preserved and
their claims authenticated.
Returning northward one motors
some 10 miles TO Smyrna, where so
much history has been made that
one must stop and make inquiries.
Not far to the north is Union Chapel
il which Lorenzo Dow preached and
jumped out of pulpit windows and
rode away-preaching five times and
riding nearly 20 miles in "a hours.
The next stop is Odessa, where still
remains the old home of Bishop Levi
Scott.
The run to Wilmington, 25 miles
north of Odessa, carries one through
