Parrish, Daniel H

Parrish, Daniel H.

a minister of the Methodist Episcopal Church, South, was born about 1835, of pious parentage. In 1855 he joined the Baltimore Conference as an itinerant preacher, and in the various stations that he was called upon' to serve he labored zealously for the cause of Christ. He commanded the attention which intelligence, piety, and warm and generous sympathies usually secure. He was uncommonly fervent in prayer and earnest in exhortation; and in none of the duties of his work did he appear to greater advantage than in the labors incident to revivals. A friend writes, "In these his soul took delight, and great success attended his efforts." He died in February, 1871. See Minutes of Conferences of M. E. Church, South, 1871, p. 525, 526.
