AN ANCIENT HISTORY.
The Interesting Old swede's Church
in Philadelphfa.
(From the Boston Transcript.

FEUm tne DostSn lfanScIlpt.J
One Of the most interesting old churches
| in America Is Old Swedes. In Philadelphia,
| the two bundredth anniversary of which
was celebrated on Sunday, June II, For
two hundred years 1t has been continuously
open, for two centuries religious services
have been held in it each Sunday and in
this country there Is no other church of
which that can be said. The history of
Old Swedes. or Gloria Del, as the church's
true name Is, goes back to a biockhouse--
the biockhouse Of Wicaco. This building,
in 1877. certain Swedish colonsts dedi-
Gated as church, because the existing
Swedish church at Tinicum was too far
away from them. Jacobus Fabritius was
the irst pastor. and on Trinity Sunday he
preached TO the Swedes his first sermon.
The blockhouse upon the site of which
the church stands, was a little wooden
fort, with loopholes through which to
wing" approaching enemies. The men of
the congregation then brought their guns
to service. ''ostensibiy." the historian says.
Ito shoot wild game that they might meet
on the road" And even after the block
house had been dedicated number of wo-
men, their husbands being away. once took
refuge in 1t from an attacking party Of
Indians and, as they had been soapmaking
when attacked. they used kettles Of boil
ing soap for their defence. and with these
kept the red men oil till help arrived.
Fsbritius died in 1892. after serving the
church for fourteen years. during the st
nine Of which he was blind. The con re-
CATION was poor. and paid him litui 1t
would seem. for in the colonial records
appears his application to the council.
June 20. 1885. for permit to open and
keep an inn. The council refused to let
him do this, and SO he took up fish curing.
William Penn. in a letter to his steward,
said: You may procure fine smoked shads
Of the old priest"
An interesting reference to the old
church is made by Longfellow in Evan
geline," when describing tire Sunday morn
ing scene toward the close Of the poem:
he speaks OF 'the sound Of psalms sung
By the Swcdes in their church at wlcaco."
For many years the congregation Of Old
Swedes has belonged to the Episcopal COM
munion.
