A Narrative of the Life of John Marrant

John Marrant

John Marrant has, what can easily be called, a miraculous story.
Born in New York in 1755, after the death of his father, his family moved south, eventually settling in South Carolina. Not showing interest in trades, John eventually trained in music, learning the French Horn and Violin. One day, on the bet of a friend, he attempted to get the best of a preacher with his horn. That preacher was George Whitefield and John got much more than he bargained for. John's experience that day converted him. His family disavowed him, as a result, and he wandered away, into the wilderness. He met a Cherokee hunter, returned to the camp with him and almost executed, until his words touched the Cherokee chief. John, at the age of 14, began to work as a Christian missionary among several Indian tribes. He returned to his family, to find they did not recognize him.
He would eventually become ordained and minister to escaped slaves in Nova Scotia.

Also included with this narrative of his life, is one of his sermons, given on June 24, 1789.
