Excerpt from The Black River Conference Memorial: Containing Sketches of the Life and Character of the Deceased Members of the Black River Conference of the M. E. Church

Errors in style will perhaps be forgiven, when it is known that the greater portion of the manuscript was written while the author's family were severely afflicted with an attack of a malignant and fatal epidemic; which prevailed at the place of his residence, which swept off some seventy or eighty persons within a few months, and which prostrated, simultaneously, all his children, five in number, upon the bed of sickness, and what many feared would prove the bed of death. His pastoral duties also, which he on no account felt at liberty to neglect, frequently interfered with, or rather imperatively demanded an abrupt cessation of his la bours for the time being.
