In this last Class of preachers, there are 317 who have been traveling in full connection: this<br />
number being added to the former numbers, make in all 988. Between 80 and 90 preachers from first<br />
to last have died in the traveling connection. I have set down the year in which each preacher died,<br />
although their death might not be published in the minutes till the following year: except in some<br />
cases where I could get no account of their death, only from the minutes of the conference. In that<br />
case I have entered them as I found them.<br />
A LIST OF<br />
METHODIST PREACHERS,<br />
WHO WERE ONLY PROBATIONERS.<br />
From the year 1773 to 1806.<br />
<strong>The</strong> following preachers were admitted upon trial, but stopped traveling in a short time, and<br />
therefore were not admitted into full connection. I have inserted all their names in the following list,<br />
except those of a few who never went to their circuits. I have intentionally omitted such as came<br />
under my own observation. Several who began to travel, stopped through weakness of body, and<br />
some through discouragement; and many on the account of family concerns. Some of them however<br />
are now useful local preachers, and an honour to the <strong>Methodists</strong>. I have entered at the end of some<br />
of their names, the time when they died; and have put a mark [these marks were changed to words]<br />
at the end of a few names to shew that the person left us, or was expelled.<br />
It has never been a practice among the <strong>Methodists</strong>, to publish any account in the minutes of the<br />
conferences, of those preachers who were only on trial; but in case they died, left us, or stopped<br />
traveling, their names have been omitted without further notice.
