Unto poets. bards and prophets. David drank the poets spirit. Sang the coming to the nations, Ofthe corner stone most precious. Sang in words majestic. noble. Sang Isaiah, and his singing Has, with ma atchless music ringing, Gladdened all succeeding ages With these words, this sacred poem, ''Thus the Lord God aith. Behold Lay in Zien for foundation, A tried stone; 8 sure foundation; A tried stone, precious corner" We corner stone are singing, But it is of earth most earthy. Muse of Heaven, give then thy spirit; Lift our thoughts from stone of granite, To the stone 1t symbolizes. Corner stone, elect most precious. Builders led by munitions, Of the future filled with wisdom; Seek alone, what will be lasting; Seek the permanent abiding, Be they architects of matter, Or ofmind, and soul, and spirit. If they build of things material, Select such as time corroding Cannot weaken; If of spirit, Choose foundation stone eternal; Fashion character undying In it's goodness and it's beauty. In erecting here chapel, We are building for the future. If for time alone, our object Is unworthy our ambition. If for never-dying ages, Guard the workmanship, and watch it. If the deep foundation solely. Be of granite or of marble, Twill not outlive storm and tempest. Build on Christ, though your foundation Be of stone, and earthly substance; Build on him whose name is written In your foreheads: Though material Be terrene, be this your object; That the altar here erected, Be to all who join its worship, Portal to 'house eternal In the heaYens. and made without hands," Here the heart of hearts will mlngle, Human hearts in happy union: And no discord, inharmonious, Will their fellowship discover. Then this age and it's descendants Will go singing, and this valley, With its echoes will be ringing, Praises to the glorious Author Of all good, who, by His spirit Shows mans need and Gods great mercy. Sabbaths all these woodland mountains, To the church-bell unaccustomed. Will repeat in joyous echoes, Ali the music of it's ringing, All the music of its singing, AS it calls to praise and worship, Dwellers by the peaceful river, And the sunlight ofthe azure, In it's waters clear reflected, Will re-shine in lives and faces Of the people. Such the mystic Power and influence radiated, From temple dedicated To the Lord.

Many of us have long hoped for it, and are glad it has come. Many others, not here to-day, have longed and looked for it but died without the sight If dear departed ones may as we sometimes imagine, take cognizance of earthly things, then l think that out of wonder heaven, those look down upon us, who in time past, pondered
 long and earnestly on the question how the building of chapel could be secured.
 Hark hear you not voices If not out of yonder heaven. certainly out of the past, encouraging us in our work here to-day. Listen methinks l hear the voices of George Wheaton and wife, Charles Pratt and wife, Doctor Gold and wife, Noah Baldwin, Wm. c. Rogers, Stephen Foster and wife, Sylvester Barnum. and others ah yes may we not have the consolation of thinking that they rejoice with use in what our eyes see and our ears hear, as we conduct these services ?. MT. Barnum, the day before he died. when he knew his life was fast drawing to it's close, said to Rob- ert N. Cochrane, who has been an active promoter of our chapel work, ''bring me the chapel subscription paper; I want my name on it beforeI die.' MT. Cochrane brought the paper to him, and his name was entered for liberal sum, which his wife will pay.
 NoahBaldwin;-turn your eyes to wonder hillside: in that farther field, you can see, standing alone, a whitewood tree. It is tall. stately, beautiful, like unto cedar of Lebanon. Last night as the name of Noah Baldwin came to my mind, I recollected some of the many conversations had had with him about chapel. He often spoke of that tree as one he had reserved against the building of chapel. If not too late, his son Chauncey, who has been the first
