[AnAmericanMother]

Here's one my grandfather-in-law the Methodist minister used to tell:

When the American frontier opened up to settlement, and the ministers began to move west, the Baptists walked, the Methodists rode horseback, the Presbyterians took the stagecoach . . .

. . . but the Episcopalians waited until they invented the Pullman car!

most Episcopalians never left their churches. That’s why the preponderance of Episcopalians seem to be in the 13 original colonies - farming and merchantiling was good, good education, and beautiful churches.
