The illustrated history of Methodism [electronic resource]; the story of the origin and progress of the Methodist church, from its foundation by John Wesley to the present dayWritten in popular style and illustrated by more than one thousand portraits and views of persons . lding an immenseaudience spell-boundfor more than an whole person,he continues, indi-cated him to be one ofnatures noblemen. Hisfeatures were large,benignant, and intel-lectual. His head wasof an uncommon size,his forehead high andmassive, his eyes blueor hazel-colored, hismanner of address al-ways easy and grace-ful, his voice a deep bass, but soft and musical; there wasnothing constrained or unnatural in itsmodulation, but it was an earnest andanimated conversational tone. Physically, Bishop Roberts was not anideal circuit-rider; for his great weightmade it often a difficult matter for him tosecure a suitable mount; and frequentlyhe proved too heavy a load for the horseor vehicle that was provided. Conse-quently it but too often happened that theConferences, after waiting to the lastpossible minute, had to proceed withouthim. His first visitation was to the re-mote Mississippi Conference. It was asickly season in these regions, and boththe bishop and his companion fell ill,. REV. CHAUNCRV HOBART,One of the pioneers in the Northwest Territory.
