DOWNLOAD EBOOK →Excerpt from History of the Wesleyan Academy: At Wilbraham, Mass;; 1817-1890 To persons of intelligence and breadth of view, the record of a literary institution is not less interesting than that of a city or State. Such an institution is something more than a corporation for the accumulation of wealth. It deals with mind, in its formative period. It is a gymnasium for the harmonious unfolding of the intellectual faculties, and the more perfect discipline of thought. The training thus secured becomes an admirable furnishing for the duties of practical life. Education is wealth invested "where moth and rust do not corrupt, and where thieves do not break through and steal." Among institutions of this kind, the Wesleyan Academy at Wilbraham holds a conspicuous and honored place. The amount of work performed is very large, and the quality is of a high order. The design has been to furnish the whole man. With careful regard to intellectual drill, constant attention has been given to the moral and spiritual needs of the young. Many students have there received the inspiration and spiritual uplift, so important in working out the practical problems of life. It has been deemed important to turn out good men and women as well as good students; and, so fully has this purpose been realized, that few institutions have furnished pupils better fitted to grapple with the affairs of the world.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →Excerpt from The Churchmanship of John Wesley: And the Relations of Wesleyan Methodism to the Church of England The volume itself is a new composite out of materials the greater part of which have already been published. The substance of about one-half appeared in the Contemporary Review, in September, 1876, as an article on The Churchmanship of John Wesley.' By the courtesy of Mr, Strahan, I am allowed to use it for the purpose of this volume. Most of the remainder had appeared in a former publication on the Relations of John Wesley and Wesleyan Methodism to the Church of England, ' which was called forth by special circumstances eleven years ago, and of which two editions have been sold, but which will be superseded by the present volume.
