Excerpt from The Life and Letters of Stephen Olin, D.D., LL. D, Vol. 1 of 2: Late President of the Wesleyan University
There were, however, periods of his life in which he was deprived, by ill health, of that free and unreserved intercourse with his friends which seemed a necessity of his nature, and for the illustration of these silent periods we are indebted to the recollections of those who were then familiarly associated with him. Many thanks are due to the Rev. Dr. Bates, and to the Rev. Messrs. Jackson and Mallory, for their valuable sketches of his college life.

Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book tells the life story of Stephen Olin, a great American preacher, college president, and Methodist Episcopal Church leader. Born in Vermont in 1797, Olin was a gifted scholar who, despite his struggles with ill-health, graduated at the top of his class from Middlebury College in 1820. Olin was converted to Methodism in 1820 and entered the ministry two years later. He served as a pastor in South Carolina and Georgia before being elected president of Randolph-Macon College in Virginia in 1834. Olin was a powerful preacher and a gifted administrator who helped to shape the development of American Methodism in the 19th century. He died in 1851 at the age of 54, but his legacy continues to inspire Methodists today.
