Excerpt from Records of Early Methodism in Bolton<br/><br/>The personal connection between the Methodists of thelast century and those of the present is rapidly pass ing away. There are few who recollect the men and things of former times. The most favourable period for obtaining information has been suffered to escape, and along with it many interesting facts have passed into oblivion. The motive which has prompted this paper has been a desire to collect as far as possible reminiscences of the early days of Methodism, with reference to the society in Bolton. No person who is at all conversant with Mr. Wesley's journals need be told that this society was held by him in the highest esteem, and never mentioned except in terms of strong commendation. Here he often stayed and was refreshed, and his intercourse, as appears from his journals, and the records of the society's books, must have been of the most familiar and confiding char acter.
