During this time, letters from former ministers who were unable to attend were read. The history of the church leading to the present note- burning service follows: Methodism began in Millville as early as 182 when three church societies alternated in using a log school house or were welcome visitors at the services of others. In 1832 Methodists used a frame school house located on the Gregory Farm about a mile west of the village. In 1834 a small frame building was erected west of the village, the exact location is not known, and in a document dated Dec. 18, 1849 which indicates that a church building was moved, probably the frame building previously mentioned, thus the Millville Methodist Church came to its present location. ) addition was built on the back and the whole structure repaired, refitted and reseated and was considered adequate until 1896. At this time under the Rev. H. E. Bayley and building committee S. M. Wyman, John Arnett, Joseph Reid, S. D. Howell and R. Bacon a new building was erected with the old church being moved back to become the Sunday school rooms, dining room and kitchen. The cor- nerstone for the new building was laid on Aug. 5, 1896 with a dedication service held on Jan. 27, 1897. This venture cost the church about $2,600. Improvements were made through the years yet with all the effort expended in 1967 the church was faced with many problems and a \Crusade for Progress\: was begun.

Ralph Ward Jr. of the Syracuse area delivering the address. The Rev. Douglas Louie was pastor and the Rev. Robert C. Root, district superintendent was also present. The note-burning and rededication service held Oct. 29 is an accomplishment of which the small congregation of just 100 members are all very proud and a day they will always remember.
