factory on Bear Creek. The Cherry,
now New Albany church, was also
divided in small groups, having
meeting places at Dusliore, Norkonks
school house, New Albany and
Heavenly Settlement. These points
were reached by monthly visits, and
from the first MIR. Callender's labors
were appreciated by the extended
communities visited by him and in
creased demands made for his labors.
During the first year of his labors the
Taporte church was constituted to
which there was very soon consider
able accessions made at Eagles Mere
and the church has since been known
as Laporte and Eagles Mere, having
in addition to the appointments at
these villages one in lower Shrews-

labored for the Master for ten years;
loved and admired by christian
families throughout the bounds of
our county, and living in the enjoy

tion of fellow laborers in the chris
ton ministry Of other denominations.
At the first outbreak of the Rebel
lion he was among the first to recog-
nize the Importance Of speedy action
and unhestatingly at the first meet
ing called at Laporte for urging en-
listments accepted an appointment
to visit other parts of the county to
aid in the work.
In his ministerial labors he over
taxed his strength and while living
IN the field il was hard for him to
consent to give up any part Of it and
with hope that another man with
greater physical endurance would
take his place he resigned his ap-
pointment in 1864 and first accepted
the pastorship of the church which
he had left on coming to this county
at New Milford. In 1887 he was
called TO his home church in Scott
Valley where with but brief inter
upton he remained until his death
He was twice married his first
wife the daughter of Rev. Tower of
Lenoxville and sister of Rev. &. NJ
Tower, who may he remembered by
our old citizens as assisting Mr..
Calender when a student at Lewis
burg. In 1913 he led Miss
Harriet Darrow and to them were
born three sons and one daughter,
Augustus, Jessie, Stephen and Lucy
all of whom are well remembered by
the early residents of Laporte.
To them and his afflicted widow
their many friends at Laporte ex-
tend their heart felt sympathy.
