as desired revolutionary changes with a more equal distribution of powers among laymen and preachers. " Out of these differences arose the first division in the ranks of Methodism. Alexander Kilham was, like Wesley, born in Epworth, 1762. 'He became a zealous preacher, enduring hardship and persecution, laboring with great success, especially in the Channel Islands. He was a man of intense zeal and fervent piety. He favored, too, new departures to which Wesley had been opposed : the presence of
... laymen as representatives of the people in the annual con- ference, and the administration of the sacraments by the Methodist preachers. These he urged by pam- phlets and in the conference. Concessions were made in a plan of pacification in both these regards, but they failed to meet the demands of Kilham and those associated with him.
Kilham, persisting in his agitation, was suspended from the Methodist Connection in 1796. The fol- lowing year, with three other preachers, he founded in Leeds the Methodist New Connection, with which five thousand seceders at once united.
