Mr.. W. A. Reed furnishes the follow
ing in regard TO the origin of the name
of Silverbrook: He says he was one of
the pioneers, AS the settlement on the
Lancaster pike, just beyond the city
limits, grew in size the neighbors
wished to establish Sunday school,
and accordingly several of them gathered
on one Sunday afternoon, under large
beach tree that stood in front of the
house of q. r. Mason, where they were
Joined by several friends from Asbury
M. e. church, when committee was
appointed consisting of y. r. Adair,
j. L. Walton and others. Each of the
residents gave S., and John r. Tatum
gave $40 to start with. A lot was then
purchased from MI. Murray, but the
B. & P. Railroad passing through this
| lot, another one WAS purchased, and the
chapel finally erected thereon. The
trustees met in B. II. Adair's house to
select name for 1t. i moved that II
be christened Silverbrook, and B. f.
Adair seconded the motion. Few, how
ever, appeared to take much notice OF
the name, until Mn DUPONT gave the
name of Silverbrook to the station at
the Lancaster: pike, and then the White
Brothers adopted the name for their
coal yard. Messrs. Foster and Dolbow
were our main stand bys in the erection
OF the chapel, and without them
think the undertaking would have
proved failure. "Honor to whom
