Rev. David Leith migrated to America in 1873, leaving his family behind in Scotland. While in America he served in the Memphis District of the Southern Methodist Conference. In 1876 he returned to Scotland and served as Pastor of a small Congregational Church in Wick, Scotland where, in addition to serving as Pastor, he wrote articles which were published in the Western Methodist, a newsletter of the Memphis Methodist Conference. These articles were published under the by-line "Letter From Scotland". The articles that are available were written in the 1876, 1877 and 1878 time frame. Although a few of these articles survive they are in very poor condition. From time to time, extracts from these published articles will be added to this section of the Leith web site.

The Rev, David Leith returned to the United States with his family in the fall of 1881 where he served the Southern Methodist Conference of Churches until his death in 1919.
