Description
Reed is serving as the Presiding Elder of the Kanawha District (Ohio Conference, MEC). He cites an article which he recently contributed to the Advocate, dealing with the efforts of the Methodist Episcopal Church South to recruit within his district, principally in the mountainous and remote circuits. It is preachers from the bordering Kentucky Conference of the MECS who are attempting to sway societies to join the southern church. The "Plan" of General Conference, he says, is not more regarded in this district by the MECS than it is by the Presbyterians or Baptists. Abstract Number - 661
