Dedication OF ST. MarY's Lutheran Church
Death of Mrs. Weller.

On Sunday morning last St. Mary's Luth-
eran Church was dedicated. BY 10 clock
the church was comfortably filed. The ser
vice opened by an anthem by the choir,
''Great is the Lord After the anthem all
joined in the Apostles Creed; then Scripture
lesson was read by Rev. DIR. Richard, of the
Theological Seminary at Gettysburg, and
prayer by Rev. DIR. Dreisbach, of the Reformed
Church. Rev. DIR. Richard then preached an
able and impressive sermon from Genesis,
9Th chapter and 4th verse-"And the ark
rested in the seventh month, on the seven
teenth day of the month upon the mountains
of Ararat." The sermon was very interesting
and instructive. After the sermon an effort
was made to raise money to liquidate the debt
on the church, to which there was liberal re-
sponse About u o clock, M, the congrega-
ton was dismissed until $50 p. m. By
O'Clock crowds of people were coming in until
the church was crowded and great many
could not get seats. 1t is safe TO say there
were not less than 700 people in the church.
The services opened promptly at clock, by
an anthum by the choir, make joyful
Noises" next was prayer by Rev. DIR. Rich
ard, an address by Rev. DIR. Dreisbach, who,
in his usual pleasant manner, addressed the
congregation and opened the way for the next
speaker. Rev. DR.. Richard was then called
to address the congregation, to which he
promptly responded, and delivered very in
teresting address and urged the young people
to give literally for the payment of the church
debt. After the address OF Rev. DR.. Richard
another effort was made to raise a sufficient
sum of money so that the church could be
dedicated. The required amount was raised
in very short time, and at ten minutes before
five O. clock the church was dedicated free of
debt. The whole amount raised was S6O4.
The chandeliers are expected TO be put in the
church this week, so that Christmas services
can be held in the church on Saturday even
ing. Rev. Mr.. Earhart has been here but six
months, and he has the pleasure of having his
church freed OF debt and dedicated. Too
much praise cannot be given to him for the
manner in which he conducted the work of
the church and in accomplishing the end
which he was aiming for.
Rev. DIR. Richard preached in st. Mary's
Reformed Church at this place on Sunday
evening to a large congregation.
