this place has been undergoing re-
modelling. and so thoroughly has the
building been remodeled that one might
almost say il has been rebuilt The
church is now one of the prettiest in the
State inside and very striking when
viewed outside Its facade is rather
massive, but is relieved by two towers,
one "a hundred and the other sixty feet
in height, which surmOunt the sides of
the front. The gallery is Horseshoe, "
while the choir loft is now just in the
rear Of the pulpit. The seals are ar
ranged very much as they are iL the

The central reflector is handsome and
expensive, while the pulpit furniture
and carpet are very handsome
Sunday the church, as remodelled, was
dedicated, Bishop Alpheus W Wilson
preaching the sermon. The church was
crowded throughout the services.
The local history Of the church is very
interesting and is one of growth and ex-
banding INFLUENCE. The first Methodist
Society was organized here near the
beginning OF the present century, and at
first wOrshipped in the Courthouse and
then in the Glebe Church. In 1875 the
members, probably less than forty,

In 1888 the membership had
grown so large that another build
ing was begun, fronting on Hill
street, few feet north of the old edifce,

room remained in half finished state
