John Collins [1]

a Methodist Episcopal minister, was born in Sussex County, Delaware, in April 1764. He grew up to be a man of great bodily strength, and fierce and revengeful passions; but married a woman of remarkable amiableness, and shortly afterwards was converted. He immediately began exhorting and preaching, and in 1803 entered the Philadelphia Conference, wherein he labored without intermission until within a few weeks of his death, which occurred March 30, 1827. Mr. Collins had some very objectionable qualities in his character, still he labored with untiring zeal and. did much good. See Minutes of Annual Conferences, 1827, page 542; Methodist Magazine, 10:289.
