Excerpt from History of Wesleyan Methodism in Burnley and East Lancashire: Burnley, Colne, Padiham, Nelson, Barnoldswick The important position which Methodism has taken in East Lancashire called, in the opinion of the author, for some permanent record of its origin and progress. Nearly twenty yeais ago he began to collect materials for such a book, never dreaming that he himself would have the responsibility of publishing it.
