A. characteristic story is i told i oft@ 1
that is welt worth recording - 4, -17inni the I
borders of Virginia, there Was a settle-1
ment• of rough, "hard ' Shed" Baptists.'
The Methodists had long'essayed to Make 1
rilodgement in . this
,quarter, but. were ,
.sunituarily ,deferitiA by the iteeisiVe mode
of turning 'their - inissionari!es neck and 1
heels. out .of the Place—and 1'1,1 5 i n l no Ver%' 1

vigor did the Baptists held .his tower of
the Lord, that the Methodists, jwith all
their zeal for propagating tlii.i Gi.ispel i • nod 1
their resolute devotion to th • gr&at duly, I
pawed before this Rapti Ft Oibrafter.
The task eeenidd ,a hopeles94 one; and not •
one. of the faithful] 'could bee found to en
counter the inevitable risk of perzonal :yin-
lence . - 7 -especially as a coat! of 1 tar and
feathers had.been designates as thente cif J
any' new warior of the cross Who should ap-
pear in that 'region in Methodist garb.
'At last, however; Parson Bi•Ownlow. * . es
appointed _to the duty of converting these
heathen from the error of-their ways. , •
. Parson
,Brownlow Was Mitelil yoptger
and less celebrated than he ii, new, bat the
sante -spirit -ithiimated • himithent hit has
since extended.. hie reputation So widely.
He knew the risk he was - ch4en_ti - i encoun
ter, and- rather relished the - novelty and'
excitement of this new fiebt. Accordingly,
mounted upon his 'horse, milt!' the inevi

camp oneHSattirday Mortimg; I and an
netmecd. hie Porme , to gitle I lir barbari
ans of that foeality '-a "exiled fthe true

that his horse anal saddle-I,4gs % -etc taken I
as spoils, his person roeghly n altr'eated, 1
and liC was turned loo'se ire ti l e fut' s i,i i -ts 1
of the place and ordered, atg his peril, rev-]
vr.to study daylight in thatiquaiter again.
The.parson footed it home :14 best he
might; but soon after re-appeared at the'
scene of cOittist,- mid. coptlick,; with an
other horse and ahother.'pair lof saddle
bags, to commence his 1 labors. - 'llls
treatment was conintensuratti • with' the
hearty and religion§
_indignation of his I
foes, and once more,the pirso6. footed it
home sore and horseless. •
A third' time- the irreprpssible Brown- I
low - appeared upon the fielit, tollic served
about asbefore; only his . Pertinacity and;
courage_ had worked iipoi) tlie curiosity
as. well . as the fincy,of al per inn or the
