Trinity Church was built about 70 years since, by a special
Act of Parliament (32, Gee. 111., cap. 76), toprovide addi ional
accommodation for, the parish of Liverpool... For 30 orAO years
afterwards it numbered one of the largest congregations in the
town; but, owing to the removal of families into suburban
districts, the dilapidated state of the-church, and other cir-
cumstances,.it became for many years almost deserted. Very
. great exertions have been made of late to revivify this decay-
mg church, and to place it once more in a position of useful-
ne s. The present officiating clergyman being most desirous
to remedy this state of things, and to provide for the altered
state of the neighbourhood, bas, on his own responsibility,
guaranteed the payment of the ground rent on certain pews
ta' be thrown open free, creating free accommodation to the
exte it of 300 sittings. This of course can only be arranged
year by year; but it is his intention to devote any surplus,
afier the liquidation of the debt, to the making these sittings
free and unappropriated for ever. The Organ (which was not
new at the time of its erection) was pronounced unfit for use
without a considerable out ay ; a new Organ has therefore been
erected. The church has been re-lighted, and an additional
warming apparatus provided ; it has been thoroughly cleansed,
painted, and neatly and consistently furnished—in short, made
fit in every respect for the decent performance of divine
service.

The Churchyard, from its exposed state, has been subject to
every rossible kind .of desecration. This has been partially
enclosed, and it is hoped that, ere long, this will be completed.
Most of the original pew proprietors and grave owners are
now deceased, and many of their representatives are scattered
far and wide,• and, if able to be found, are not in a position to
render any assistance. •
About E 1,200 is required. The Bazaar must be held on the
13th, 14th, and 15th of March, in the Queen's Hall, Bold-
street, (this date has been fired by the Council of the Queen's
Ilan The amount required king large, and the time for
preparation being unavoidably short, it is earnestly hoped that
all persons who feel an interest in our earthly sanctuaries,
whether' connected with Trinity Church or not, will lend a
helping hand to raise this stun ; and those especially are called
upon who were here dedicated to God by the solemn rite of
Christian baptism, or were here united in the holy bond of
wedlock, or whose friends or relatives once worshipped within
these walls, and whose remains Row lie mouldering Within
this sacred enclosure.
