Anmerkungen
On 25 July 1916 Dr. Martin consecrated Benjamin Charles Harris as FPEC Bishop of Essex and Ernest Mumby as FPEC Bishop of Caer-Leirion, and as Chancellor of the Nazarene College, granted both new bishops doctor of divinity degrees. Benjamin Charles Harris was born in 1884 in Essex, England. On 25 July 1915 he was ordained a presbyter, as was also William Hall, by Dr. Martin exactly a year before being raised to the episcopate. Dr. Harris throughout his ministrial career served as a minister for various non-conformist churches. From 1927 to 1929 he was the pastor for Romford Evangelical Free Church in Romford, Essex. In 1929 he left Essex for Hertfordshire when he became minister for New Barnet Baptist Church. He later became the non-conformist chaplain to the Mental Hospital in Abbots Langley, Herts., in which town he died on 9 November 1946.
On 25 July 1916, Dr Martin, assisted by presbyters William Hall and Ernest Albert Asquith, consecrated Benjamin Charles Harris then of Essex and Ernest Mumby then of London as bishops for the FPEC in the Church of Martin Luther, the pro-Cathedral of the FPEC, located at 26 Speldhurst Road, South Hackney, London.
