So he never saw the inside of a church save when we were all baptized. My sixth brother…this same minister…my father took two captains as godfathers and the minister said, “Are they Episcopalians?” He said, “I don’t know”…turned to one, said, “Are you Episcopalian?” and he said “No, I’m Presbyterian.” The other one, he’s Methodist. The minister said, “Well, I’m sorry but we can’t have them as godfathers. They must be Episcopalian.” My father said, “You mean you aren’t going to have my friends as the godfathers of my son?” He said, “I can’t allow it, Mr. Goddard.” He said, “Give me my son.” Took him out of his arms and said, “I’ll baptize him myself.” He took the water and sprinkled it on his face and he said, “In the name of Jesus your name is Fred” and then walked out with his son in his arms. That’s his name, his name is Fred Goddard.864 ¶34
