A short Sketch of the p. e. Trinity
Church-The Semi-Centennial Anniver-
sary Celebration.
Today the Trinity Protestant Episcopal
Church, on Catharine street. above Second, will
have been in existence fifty years. On the
25th day of April, 1891, the corner stone of the
present church was laid. In the meantime,
while the church was building, those who had
assembled together for the purpose of forming
an Episcopal church in that section of the city
met at the old Commissioners Hall, in Second
street now the police station, and after wor-
shipping there for short time they removed to
The old Ebenezer, in Second street, between
Catharine and Queen, east side. AT the end of
about one year from the time the cornerstone
was laid they took possession OF the present
Trinity Church, where they have remained ever
since.
This church began its existence with the ear
liest importance of that populous district.
Among the original corporators were several of
the most prominent of those sea captains whose
energy and ability made the commerce of Phila-
delphia so important fifty years ago, and whose
names are familiar memories to our older citi-
zens. The parish early assumed considerable
importance. Its first rector, Rev. Manning B.
Roche was one of the most popular preachers
of the day; but his connection with the church
ceased upon his adopting the tenets of Sweden
borg. He was succeeded by the late Bishop of
North Carolina, Bishop Ives, and he by the
venerable DR.. Mead, new of Connecticut. The
Rev. John Coleman, once perhaps the most
popular Episcopal minister in the city, was rec
tor for some twenty-five years, and achieved a
remarkable success in the parish. He was fol-
lowed by the late talented Thomas NJ Martin.
Later Rev. d. Washburn aud Rev. John w.
Brown, the former now in Schuylkili county,
and the latter in Detroit, Mich. served the
church with no small success.
The emi-centennial celebration will take
place to-day. This morning the regular church
service and communion were held, at which
there were gathered many of those who,
in earlier days, were members of the church.
hia mill ha fah IN riahr
union, at which a sketch of its very interesting
history will be read by the present rector, Rev.
Mr.. Bush addresses delivered by clergy and
laity who have been identified with its history;
and the music of some of our most talented
performers, in the handsomely decorated church,
will unite, we trust in making the evening one
of unmingled pleasure to the many friends of
Trinity, both old and young.
