We have seen that the last Conference appointed its next session to be held at Pine Ridge, November 16, 1815, and in their address to the Tennessee Conference they express the hope that the Bishops may find it possible to meet them then and there. The Pine Ridge referred to was a dense settlement extending from four or five miles to ten or twelve miles north of Natchez, and was bordered on the west by the Mississippi River. As there is no Journal of this Conference extant, some suppose it was never held, and others think it identical with the first Conference attended by Bishop Robert R. Roberts at the house of William Foster, on Pine Ridge, October 10, 1816. Both suppositions are erroneous. It is true there is not a line of Journal, either written or printed, within our knowledge, to show that the Conference appointed for November 16, 1815, was ever held. No living minister of our acquaintance has even a plausible tradition that the Conference of 1815 was held on Pine Ridge according to appointment. Of late years it has been referred to as the lost Conference, with but little prospect of its ever being found. Most of those who give the subject any attention (seeing every thing in relation to it is wanting), conclude that by some mishap or misunderstanding it did not meet at all; and yet we have sufficient evidence to Drove that it was held on the same plan of the two former Conferences, though it was not held on Pine Ridge. In the General Minutes we find the numbers in Society from every pastoral charge had been regularly given in, and for the current year we have the appointments of all the preachers, including several valuable transfers from the Tennessee and South Carolina Conferences, given in the usual form.

The Mississippi Conference met in Washington, Miss., December 8, 1825, Bishops Roberts and Soule present. William Winans was again elected Secretary. The old Methodist church being too small for Conference congregations and the new church not yet ready for occupation, we accepted gratefully the offer of the commodious Baptist church for our public religious services. The Conference room was a small office on Main Street, about the center of the town. The members of the Conference were mainly quartered in town, but the probationers were sent into the surrounding country. Every preacher from a distance came on horseback, and our horses were distributed among the planters in the vicinity without charge. The first day or two the probationers and local preachers were not admitted into the Conference room as spectators. When not attending church, we stood around outside to see what little we could see and hear what little we could hear and guess at the balance. Why our elder brethren of those days treated the probationers for membership in the Conference in this way, we are at a loss to decide. It would seem reasonable to us, as those on trial expected soon to become members of Conference, that their presence as spectators ought to have been promptly invited, to afford them opportunities for learning the routine of business before being required to take part in it, and to profit by the incidental remarks of the bishops and other ministers of experience. After the suspense of a day or so, the undergraduates were invited to back seats in the Conference room as spectators, which we very gladly accepted. This was our first sight of'an Annual Conference in session. We remember the incidents of that Conference as though they had...
