First Methodist Meeting Place in New Hampshire
In 1772, "the people called Methodist"
held their first religious meeting
in this state on the James Robertson
farm, 1.2 miles north of here, on
Christian Street, with Philip Embury
as the preacher. On June 20, 1803,
Francis Asbury spoke here using as
his text: "Let us run with patience
the race that is set before us."
