IV.
The early pioneers in this com-
munity were inherently a musical
people, for tbrough they had no
musical instruments in the House
of Worship and few possessed hymn
books, these deficiencies were made
up in enthusiasm and ardor with
which they sang the hymns.
'['he hymns were read out by the
minister two lines at a time. This
custom of "lining out" hymns was
followed down into the "70's"
when in the recollection of A. M.
Vloyd, not only the ministers, but
the lay-leaders as well, as they
knelt in prayer meeting, chose and
led the songs which fitted their in-
dividual religious experiences and
nloods.
The "new" Methodist Hymnal,
puhlished in 1841, which is in the
possession of the Harlan Briggs
family, was undoubtedly used by
the IAsbon congregation in the
early days. It starts with "O For
A Thousand Tongues to Sing My
Great Redeemer's Praise," and
contains ~t total of six hundred
ninety-seven hymns, which were
printed in very small letters, with-
out music, in a book whose leather-
bound cover measures only two
inches by three and a half inches
in size.
In the "Old Church" (built in
1868), the Volunteer Choir sat on
one side of the front of the church,
while the "Amen Corner" was on
the other side. During the '70's
Miss Mary Littlefield played the
reed organ and the Methodist
Church was assisted by singers
from the Reformed church which
held services in the M'ethodist
church every two weeks.
One of the earliest musical pro-
grams was directed by C. E. Les-
lie, co-author of "The Conqueror"
anthem collection. He came from
Chicago, organized a singing school
for which a fee of one dollar was
charged. The climax of the course
was a sacred concert given in the
Methodist church.
Early names in the music of the
church were Miss Ida Floyd, N[r.
John Wctherall. During tbe '"80's"
Miss Nellie Fisher and Miss Add
Barnes were organists.
(This account of the music in
the early days is through the court-
esy of Mrs. G. L. Hill.)
