Charles Betts Galloway papers, 1879-1910.

The collection consists of the papers of Bishop Charles Betts Galloway from 1879-1910. The papers are primarily correspondence of southern Methodist bishops, ministers, and laymen to Bishop Galloway. There is a long run of correspondence from Bishop John Christian Keener to Bishop Galloway (29 letters, July 1888-November 29, 1897), which mainly concerns matters relating to the Mississippi Conference (transfers, etc.). Another major section of the correspondence includes letters written in 1898 and 1899 by various bishops, ministers, and laypersons to Bishop Galloway stating their opinions on the controversy over the "war claim" of the Methodist Episcopal Church, South.
