OLD CHRIST CHURCH.
The First Episcopal Church Erected
in the District.
REMODELED AND IMPROVED.
Interesting Incidents In the History Of This
Parish-The Original Frame Building on
New Jersey Avenue-The Edifice Which Has
just Been Renewed and Redecorated.

CHRIsT CHURCH OF WASHINGTON
Oparish, although not as old as St. Paurs Of
Rock Creek parish (Which dates from 1726), is
the Oldest organization of the denomination
within the limits of Washington and George
town; and before the District vas thought of as
the seat Of government, when the en-
tire territory was covered by the
virgin growth with some cleared land
in cultivation, and ere the close of the war
Of independence it existed in a modest frame
church on New Jersey avenue, not far from D
street southeast Then it was attached to St.
John parish, in Prince Georges county Nd,
and was known as Christs Church, and during
its existence many Of the leading men of the
country worshiped in it, including President
Jefferson, who was wont to ride on horse
back on Sundays to the church and
tie his horse to one of the trees to remain till
after service. A drawing of this quaint old edi-
fee was made by Mr.. E. P. Cranch, a son OF
Chief Justice Cranch, and some yeaye ago few
Photographic copies were made.
OCCUPIED NEARLY THIRTY YEARS.
This church was used for services nearly
thirty years and Rev. A. I. Mccormick held
service in it as late as 1907. at which time he
was elected rector of Washington parish. This
frame church was in existence fourteen years
prior to the first Anglican service held in
Georgetown and sixteen years before the or
ganization Of st. Johns, Georgetown.
Although Washington parish was organized
in 1875 by act of the, legislature of Maryland,
passed in compliance with petition for
warded in 1874. the church on the present
site was not used until August, 1909,
nor formally dedicated till October OF
that year, when Thomas John Claggot,
bishop of Maryland, performed that service. In
anticipation Of the anniversary of this event
