Since he left Janesville, he has taken a respectable class of appointments, filling them creditably to himself and acceptably to the people. He is genial in spirit and warm in his attachments. He is still in the enjoyment of good health, and promises years of efficient service. This brief record brings us to the date of my appointment.
His subsequent appointments have been Spring Street, Appleton District, and Janesville District, where at the present writing he is doing a good-work. Brother Pease has a clear head, a sound understanding, and positive convictions. His pulpit ministrations are impressive and practical, his administration wise and reliable, and his intercourse with the people agreeable and spiritual.

Small as it was, it was found to be amply sufficient to contain all the letters then received by the citizens of Rock County. The first sermon preached in Janesville was delivered by Rev. Jesse Halstead in September, 1837. Brother Halstead, then on Aztalan circuit, on coming to this place found a small log house, which enjoyed the appellation of a tavern.
