Know all men by these presents that I Enoch George one of the Bishops of the Methodist Episcopal Church in America, under the protection of Almighty God and with a single eye to his glory by the imposition of my hands and prayer (being assisted by the Elders present) have this day set apart John Ercanbrach for the office of an Elder in the said Methodist Episcopal Church a man whom I judge to be well qualified for that work, and I do hereby recommend him to all whom it may concern as a proper person to administer the Sacraments __ ordinances & to feed the flock of Christ so long as his spirit and practice are such as become the Gospel of Christ.
In testimony whereof I have hereunto set my hand & seal this first day of August in the year of our Lord one thousand eight hundred and twenty four.
