Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The General Rules of the Primitive Methodist Church: Revised by Order of the Ninety-Third Annual Conference, Held at Norwich, June 12-20, 1912
The history of previous revisions of these General Rules will be found in the preface to the edition of 1902, and need not be repeated here. The Conference of 1910 gave instructions for the usual decennial consolidation, and this was entrusted to a Committee consisting of A. T. Guttery, W. A. Hammond, J. Ritson, J. Welford, J. Hallam, E. C. Rawlings, G. Bennett, J. Pickett, H. J. Taylor, J. Harryman Taylor, m.a., M. P. Davison, J. D. Jackson, with J. Day Thompson as Secretary. We were directed to follow the general course laid down ten years before, and, in addition, to seek to improve the classification as far as possible. We have given special attention to this latter point, and believe that the order and connection in which these Laws and Rules are now presented will conduce to clearer understanding and readier reference.
We have devoted much time and care to our task, and trust that this result of our labours will give satisfaction to the Church at large.
