Summary
Correspondence to the annual conference of Methodists in Philadelphia in 1819. Letters to conference typically include: requests and recommendations for circuit preachers; reports of misbehavior by or censure of members; and requests for or receipts of financial compensation or other aid. A separate index of the correspondence for 1819 exists and is scanned separately. This year's letters include several committee reports and discussions related to the development of a missionary society. Also of note, a dispute between the New Mills and Burlington circuits, which had previously been one circuit, over the profits from sale of the once-shared parsonage.
