The Methodist Book Concern

THE “Book Concern,” as it is called, of the Methodists, was originated in 1789, by a preacher in Philadelphia; on a borrowed capital of $500. After a time it was removed to New York, and in 1833 took its present location. Its capital now is $837,000. Its total profits from 1836 to 1860 were $1,171,584.60, and these all go for denominational purposes.
