Abstract | William P. Hill was an itinerant Baptist preacher in South Carolina. The American Baptist Register for 1852 indicates that W. P. Hill was a resident of Greenwood, S.C., in 1851, and also that he was serving the Horeb Church in Abbeville (Edgefield Association). The collection is the diary of William P. Hill in which he recorded his movement through South Carolina; places where he preached; his collections; comments on conferences, conventions, temperance societies, and black and white congregations; problems such as competition from other sects; and occasional comments on national events. In the back of the book are about a dozen pages of Hill's accounts, 1846-1849, with the Domestic Mission Board. |
