the largest and most Hourishtng In

History OF Church.
The church came into existence May,
6. 1865. in a small brick building on
Church Street, known as Belvidere
Hall. This nucleus was due to the
efforts of the Rev. Henry Watkins, the
first pastor, and a devoted membership
numbering only s~ixty-nine persons. All
of this original number have passed
away save three-Mrs. Mary Barfoot,
Benjamin T. Powers and Charles i.
Watkins-who in being present at
yesterdays celebration, saw the full
maturity of their early hopes.
Under the pastorate of Elder ], NJ.
Butler, in the year 1857, the lot on
Pine Street was bought, but the church
was Their too poor to utilize It. Three
years later, while the charge was I'M
der the care OF, the Rev. A. e. DicSen-
son. whom Mr.. Hutson succeeded. a
small mooden chapel, constructed from
a building erected during the war for
the use of the soldiers at Camp Lee,
was moved here and rebuilt.
In this modest little building DR..
IHutson first preached the gospel to the
people of the church. Since them,
through the untiring and earnest eff
forts OF the pastor and the hearty CO.
operation of his congregation, the
church has reached its present state of
prosperity.
Service tn Afternoon.
The afternoon services, which began
at 8 o'clock. consisted OF the Invoca-
tion by the Rev. w. S. Dorset, scrip.
tural reading by the Rev. DR.. Ryland
Knight, prayer by the Rev. DR.. j. 3.
Hawthorne. The Rev. DR.. d. NJ Ram
say delivered an address of greeting
from the Baptists of the city; the Rev,
DR.. j. Calvin Stewart brought warm
greeting from the other denominations,
while Mayor Carlton Mccarthy spoke
lin behalf ST the citizens OF Richmond,
Following this the benedictlon was
pronounced by the Rev. Dr.. W. r. L
|Smith, who presided over the exercises
1t Is interesting to note that Or.
Hutson has served the church twice
as long rs all of the other seven pas
tors who preceded him combined, and
has seen the passing OF all, save
twenty-nine members, who first greet
ed him, All the offices of the church
have changed hands several times dur
ing his pastoratc.
