CHURCH CELEBRATION.
Two Hundredth Anniversary of the
Establishment i'm Connecticut.

Stratford. Conn, June 12.@Com-
memoration of the 2OOth anniversary
of the establishment in Connecticut of
the church of England was held to-
day in Christ church here in the pres
ence of one of the most distinguish ed
bodies of churchmen that has been
seen in the state.
This walk the first parish in the state
and its history is closely interviewer
with the story of the English church
in all New England. The book of
common prayer was adopted by the
parish in 1TO2 and the church edifice
put up on the present site of which, in
architecture the existent structure is a
modern elaboration. The parish itself
in those days was assisted by the VEN
cradle Society for the Propa cation of
the gospel in foreign parts. A dissolu-
ton of relations with that body came
with the severance of relations be-
tween the United States and Great
Britain. The town and parish records
show that a spiritual warfare existed
IN 1903 owing to the dangers of
episcopacy' as set forth by the Con-
gregationalists, and parishioners were
not only fined for holding services but
we're forbidden to vote or to hold Of
flee. Boycotts and heavy fines were
means used to compel Christ church
mem bers to assist in support of the
orthodox church and state govern
ment.
For a time the missionaries sent to
this parish had spiritual oversight in
the many parishes esta blished in Con-
necticut and Rhode Island. and the
influence of these men is also noted
In the parishes later established in
western New York. Today's celebration
was divided into two parts. that of the
