The Congregational Church at
Westminster, West
CELEBRATE ITS centennial
Interesting Exercises in one Of
the Oldest Parishes in
the State.

Westminster, Nov. 1.-The First
Congregational church in the west
part of this town celebrated it's CEN
tennial anniversary yesterday with
very interesting exercise There was
al arge gathering notwithstanding the
rain. The historical address by the
pastor, Rev. H. A. G0odhue, was
much enjoyed.
The church was organized October
81, 1899, with II members. 1t was
an otfshoot of the church here, which
is the third oldest in the state, New
bury and Bennington only only being
older. The first pastor was Rev. Reu-
ben Emerson, who was installed in
1900. Rev. Timothy Field, Rev.
Preston Taylor, Rev. Jubilee Will
liams and Rev. Alfred Stevens fol-
lowed in succession. Rev. Mr.. Ste
vens was one of the best types of the
New England ministers OF olden time.
He was man of simple tastes and
habits. interested in whatever was of
interest to his people, and greatly be-
loved by them. He preached the old
Calvinistic doctrines, while his way
was quiet and reasonable.
From 1912 until 1887 he was engag-
ed in active work in his parish. Dur
ing this time a large number of pro-
fessional men have gone out into the
world influenced by his teaching to be-
come power for good as clergymen,
lawyers, physicians, professors in col
leges and other higher institutions OF
learning. And eiauglltETsst the par
ish are now noble women in multi
tude of homes in the land. Henry A.
Goodhue the present pastor was in
stalled as associated pastor with Dr..
Stevens who died in 1890 The first
church building which this society
used was very rude one which had
been erected in 1775. This gave place
| to new building in 1927 and that in
time to the present structure in 1876.
