Excerpt from The History of Methodism in Kentucky, Vol. 2: From the Conference of 1808 to the Conference of 1820 Your cousin, the Rev. Edward L. Southgate, Sr., although an itinerant minister but a few years, attained to an eminence not common for so young a man, and in the retirement of a local sphere, exhibited a commendable zeal for the cause of Christ, until God called him home, leaving his mantle upon the shoulders of his son, now a mem ber of the Kentucky Conference, wearing the entire name of his pious father. Three of your brothers, (two of whom are now on the walls of Zion, the other in heaven, ) in the bright morning of life, placed all upon the altar of the Church - their intellectual endowments, their piety, and their zeal; while, though you have no son, two of your nephews, now in the strength of early manhood, (one of whom bears your honored name, ) are ministers Of Christ.
