Elder H. C. Kirkpatrick lived in Myrtle, Missouri, but much of his service was with Arkansas Churches and State Line Association. He was a better preacher than the average for his day and was in great demand. He was a missionary for State Line Association in 1878 and was elected moderator that year. He was elected moderator again in 1882 and 1887. In 1888 he was pastor of the Bethan [sic], Levanon, and New Salem Churches - the latter two being in Missouri. His report to State Line Association in 1888 was as follows: "Miles traveled, 1950, sermons preached 108, conversions witnessed 19, pastor of three churches, baptisms 2, received cash or its equivalent, $94.45." In 1887 he served Antioch Church (Old Reyno) as pastor We regret that we could not learn more facts about this faithful preacher.
