While titled Biography of Rev. David Smith (1881), the main portion of this work contains Smith's autobiography. This autobiography is followed by a brief history of Wilberforce University by Daniel Alexander Payne (1811-1893), who was an African- American educator and minister and who became Wilberforce University's president in 1863. He also served as chancellor and dean of its theological school from 1876 until his death. Payne was a forceful supporter of education within the African Methodist Episcopal (AME) Church and an effective proponent for reforming and standardizing the course of study for AME ministers, which was accepted by the General Conference in 1844. He became an AME bishop and held the position for 41 years.
