HIS LIFE AND WORKS
147
Born 1715; died 1795. Practically the founder of the
Moravian Church in England. His father was a non-juring
Methodist, an intimate of Dr. Burney, and frequently men-
tioned by his daughter. James Hutton met the Wesleys while
still a lad at Oxford ; but seceded from what has since been
known as Wesleyism very shortly after this meeting, under the
influence of two Moravian brothers then visiting England on
their way to Georgia. James Hutton visited the Moravian
settlement in Germany, started a correspondence with Zinzendorf,
and finally set up the “ Society for the Furtherance of the Gospel,”
and acted as Referendary to it for many years. The royal
family (George III. and the Oueen) patronised Hutton and his
religious tenets.
