Note 40 — Chapter XXXI · DEATH, FUNERAL, AND CHARACTER OF REV. MARTIN BOEHM.

See “History of the United Brethren in Christ,” by Rev. H. G. Spayth, published in 1851; also “History of the Church of the United Brethren in Christ,” by John Lawrence, where the same is copied from Mr. Spayth’s History. Concerning Mr. Spayth’s History, Mr. Lawrence says it “is indispensable to a proper understanding of the rise of the United Brethren in Christ; and the Church in all time to come will be indebted to him for the most valuable contributions to her early history.”—Vol. i, p. 6.
