  Adams, Walter Scott, was born on August 20, 1863, at Redfield, Oswego 
County, N.Y. He was converted on February 15, 1891, in a revival 
service which was being held in the Methodist Episcopal Church at 
Otego, N.Y., and at once felt called to the ministry. He left a 
lucrative position in the Bowe Casket Factory to enter our ranks. His 
education was such as the common schools could give him. Exhorter's and 
local preacher's licenses were given him by the Otego Methodist 
Episcopal Church. 
  On May 21, 1884, he married Miss Georgianna Gee.
  Conference received him on trial in 1898.
  His pastorates have been the following: 1898-99, Decatur; 1900-02, 
Laurens; 1903, East Worcester.
