Chapel Near Century Old.

In November Of this year All Saints
Episcopal Chapel on Court street, this
city, will be one hundred years old. The
event will doubtless be celebrated with
appropriate ceremonies.
The original church building in tine
old graveyard on East All Saints street,
having become dilapidated, and in that
day lni such a remote part of the town
and SO difficult of access, the vestry de.
cided to erect a new one. The records
say that the new church was to be 90
feet long and 40 wide and was to be
located near the Court House Square on
a lot of ground which had been purchas
ed from the heirs of Colonel Thomas
Price, for SAT-. 22. The cost had been
partly provided for by subscription, but
to complete the building the then Gus
tomary means Of lottery was resorted to.
and on March I4th, 1914, the drawing
was advertsed-5, 600 tickets at $500,
less 20 per cent, to yield $1,000, the
sum needed.
Henry McCleery built the church, us
ing the bricks ard other material from
the old church. These bricks had been
brought over from England. The church
was consecrated November 18th. 1914.
The parish had no rector, and at that
time the services were conducted by Mr..
S. !. Cook, lay reader Rev. Frederick
Hatch became its first rector, July Ist,
1875
The building was enlarged by two
transepts in 1920, and was transformed in
1892 into the present parish house, but
retaining its original architecture. The
new church on West Church street was
erected in 1855 and opened for service,

A MINISTER S WIFE.

A doctors wife owes no duties to her

OF lady-Shop, or at least an unordained
Curate, who, by virtue of her position, is
bound to discharge innumerable services
to the congregation. She may be a
young girl with no experience in human
life and church business; but is expected
to become the active president of all of
the benevolent institutions supported by
the ladies' Of her husbands charge. She
may have three or four children, whom
she has to teach herself, and whose
dresses must be made by her own hands;
but she is expected to visit all of the sick
and the poor. She has her natural SYM
pathies, and, however, warm her heart
may be towards every one who likes her
husbands preaching, she cannot be the
intimate and confidential friend of every
lady that belongs to the church; but peo-
pie who themselves are far from being
distinguished for universal charity are
very indignant if she finds one house
pleasanter than another, and if she nat
urally associates with ladies of her own
age and with kindred tastes.
