Biographical Note

John Fletcher Hurst was born on August 17, 1834 to Elijah and Ann Catherine Colston Hurst in Dorchester County, Maryland. Hurst attended a local school, and then entered a college preparatory school in Cambridge, Maryland. He enrolled at Dickinson College in Carlisle, Pennsylvania in 1850. While attending Dickinson College, Hurst began writing for various religious magazines. After graduation in 1854, he accepted a teaching position in Greensboro, Maryland for a few months before moving to the Hedding Literary Institute in Ashland, New York. Hurst spent the summer of 1856 studying German in Carlisle, and then traveled to Germany where he enrolled as a theology student at the University of Halle and Heidelberg. He took advantage of being in Germany to travel throughout Europe. Hurst returned to America in 1857, and began preaching in 1858 on the Carlisle Circuit.

In 1859, he joined the Newark Conference at its first session and was assigned to Irvington, New Jersey. Later in 1859, he married Catherine Elizabeth La Monte of Charlottesville, New York with whom he eventually had five children. Hurst was ordained deacon in 1860 and promoted to elder in 1862. In 1866, he accepted a professorship of theology at the Methodist Mission Institute in Bremen, Germany ultimately becoming director of the Institute. Hurst also served as professor of the Historical Theology at Drew Seminary in Madison, New Jersey starting in 1871.

Hurst was ordained Bishop of the Methodist Episcopal Church in 1880. Bishop Hurst spent time attending and organizing conferences in the United States, Europe, and India. In 1888, Hurst chose Washington, D.C. as his Episcopal home. Around the time his assignment began in Washington, D.C., Bishop Hurst began to push the idea for a graduate Methodist University. In 1891, Hurst became Chancellor and the University was incorporated in Washington, D.C. In 1893, Â鶹ÊÓƵ was established by act of Congress. Hurst died in his home in Bethesda, Maryland on May 4, 1903.

Scope and Content Note

The collection documents the life and religious ministry of Bishop John Fletcher Hurst through articles (1873-1902), correspondence (1863-1903), diaries (1852-1897), journals (1849-1902), manuscripts (1864-1900), photographs, scrapbooks (1857-1899) and sermons (1860-1891). The correspondence includes letters about the founding and early administration of Â鶹ÊÓƵ. Hurst collected newspaper clippings and manuscripts by others on topics such as bible history, religion, theology and John Wesley. Of note are manuscripts and research notes for Hurst’s books on Bible history (1873), the history of the Christian Church (1893), and the history of Methodism (1902).

Provenance

The Hurst Papers were accessioned into the University Archives in 1958 though the collection came to Â鶹ÊÓƵ after Hurst’s death.

Processing Note

Â鶹ÊÓƵ Registrar, Albert Osborne, arranged the John Fletcher Hurst papers into numbered series after Hurst’s death. The archivist reorganized the collection into six series. Folder contents were transferred to archival folders and the original folder titles were retained whenever possible. The archivist placed undated folder materials at the end of each file. All paper clips and staples were replaced with plastiklips. Duplicate documents were discarded. Newspaper clippings were unfolded and flattened.
