The Richmond Virginia Index-always
full Of pleasing and patriotic "reminiscences
of the past-and souvenir Of Virginia an
tiquities to mind that "Old St. Johns
church." on Church Hill, in Richmond, is
now, what may be called, the "last of the
race" of the buildings connected closely with
"the figures and the deeds Of the heroic age
in the history of our commonwealth" The
old State Capitol, the old Raleigh Tavern,
the old College Hall of William and Mary
have all gone. St.John's church still stands.
1t was within its walls that Patrick Henry
exclaimed ''Give us liberty, or give us
deathv We hope that it may remain, as it
is, for generations to come, and that every
effort will be made to preserve it from inju-
nv and decay.
