In 1928 Jonathan Nelson took the plan
OF the first Baptist meeting house, now
removed, selling pews to A. B. and c..
and it was dedicated to the Second Bap-
tist society of which he was member.
This house differed from the plan by be-
ing one foot longer and the pulpit had a
door at the foot of the staircase.
The first death which occurred in this
second Baptist church was probably John
Dickey Erskine, who died June l, 1910. at
the age of eighteen years and four months
and he was one of the first 70 be buried in

May the old cemeteries which contain
the ashes of SO many of these old pilgrims
ever be cared for and ever treasured as

They have gone to the grave,
But we will not deplore them,
Though sorrow and darkness
Encompass the tomb.
The Saviour has passed
Through its portals before them,
And the lamp of his love
Was their guide through the gloom.
They have gone to the grave;
We no longer behold them
Nor tread the rough paths
OF the world by their side,
But the wide arms of mercy
Are spread to enfod them,
And sinners may hope
Since the Saviour hath died.
They have gone to the grave,
And its mansion forsaking
Perchance their weak spirit
In doubt fingered long;
But the sunshine of heaven
Beams bright on their waking,
And the sound they diils't hear
Was the seraphim's song.
They have gone to the grave,
But we will not dtplore them,
Since God was their ransom,
Their Guardian, their Guide.
He gave them, he took Them
And he will restore them,
And death has no sting
Since the Saviour hath died
Many are the friends
That are waiting to-day,
Happy on the golden strand
Many are the voices
Calling us away
To Join their glorious band,

Ere his farewell was huShed in this.
He had travelled on life's journey ninety
years, five months and three days.
In 1909 members in the southern part
of the town wished to form separate
church and Elder Nathaniel Robinson was
chosen to form a counsel on the first We'd
nesday in February to organize this second
church, assisted by Thaddeus Bailey,
Jr., Dea. John Robinson and Joseph Ar
mold, ST. Elder Robinson was to dismiss
such members as wished to form this
church which was, | think, organized at
Jacob Greeley's dwelling house, where
Charles Phillips now lives.
About 1872 the old school house was
built at Robert Foye's corner, where the
Downer boys now live, and which this
church used as meeting house until the
completion of the old meeting house, now
removed. One Of the earliest pastors, if
not the first, was Elder Thaddeus Bailey
who preached at the old school house sew
eral years.
Jacob Greeley was probably the first
deacon. He was baptized Feb. 8, 1907
Joseph Bowler, ST., the second deacon
was baptized Feb. 5, 1908.
The first Baptist meeting house was
built in 1927 from plan drawn by Dan
iel Sylvester, ST., one of the early settlers
of the town, and he was also master work
man. This plan was drawn showing the
number and location of pews, which were
sold at auction, except four pews which
were sold from twenty-five to fifty dollars
each according to location and choice.
Thus 81, 200 was secured. The contract
was let to Spencer Arnold for ST. 100,
leaving 500 for painting the outside,
which was done by Benjamin Marden.
This church was dedicated to the first
Baptist church on New Years Day, 1928,
by Elder Jesse Marten and Elder William
Bowler, the former preaching the ordi
nation sermon. This church had an ele-
waited gallery and pulpit nine feet high
entered by flight OF stairs and was seat
ed with high box pews and each with a
door, 1t was lighted by tin chandelier

was oozing from a bullet hole directly in

life, but his friends have known for some
time that he was badly worried over busi-
