 - Vol 20, p. 33:  Article about Rev. Green A. COLLIER, excerpted from 'The

E. J. STOCKTON:  "In the fall of 1842 I went...to the Jackson Presbytery to Mt.
Pleasant, Big Cove, Madison Co., Ala., .... [where] a camp meeting was going
on....there I saw [and met] Green A. COLLIER...[who] lived in the neighborhood
and was camped on the ground...
 Rev. Green A. COLLIER was born near the Mammoth Cave, Kentucky, Feb. 25,
1819.  His parents moved when he was quite young to Madison Co., Ala., where
he was raised, educated, lived and died....
 He professed religion and joined the Cumberland Presbyterian church at a
camp meeting in 1833 and was happily married to Miss H[pyasia] A. PICKENS of
that community, whose father was a ruling elder of the Mt. Pleasant
congregation, and one of the best men and most efficient elders I ever knew.
Brother COLLIER owned a good farm, comfortable buildings and several slaves at
the time and was therefore in good easy and properous circumstances...
 After accepting him as a candidate...he was by unanimous vote of the
presbytery licensed to preach...[at a session] hled in Mar 1848 at Old
Marshall near where Guntersville now stands in Marshall Co., Ala.  At the next
session held in September in Bellefonte, Jackson Co., Ala.,...[he was] set
apart to the whole work of the ministry...
 Brother COLLIER was not a healthy man but was frequently sick, his lungs
were weak and he often suffered with them...[he was often taken ill, but soon
recovered]... He taught school 20 years in the neighborhood where he lived and
had preached eleven years at his death which occurred on the 18th of November,
1853 of typhoid fever....leaving his wife and four children - two more having
gone before - to mourn their sad loss...
 His four children professed religion while young and lived consistent
christian lives.  His eldest son has been a ruling elder in the church for
many years and now lives in Huntsville, Ala..."

 [As a minister] I have seen him go into the pulpit while his noble christian
wife would take her seat in front and as he preached with all the fervor of
his soul, she looking him full in the face, prayed as fervently as he preached.
 by and by her face would light up like and angels's, great tears would fill
her eyes, then rool down her bright face and fall like great rain drops ....
Sister Collier worked as intently and earnestly as did the preacher, and this
is or was as it should be ... Sister COLLIER was the best preacher's wife I
ever knew.  She thus deserves public commendation and public recognition...
   "[Green A. COLLIER] died 18 Nov 1853 of typhoid fever....leaving his wife
and four children - two more having gone before..."
