another at the point where the sunken
boulevard crosses Pacific street. Another
meeting is TO be held Friday evening Of

SERVICE AT PoHIck CHURCH
Anniversary of First Celebration of
Communion Commemorated 4.
Yesterday.

The 3O9th anniversary of the first
celebration of the Holy Communion
held after the landing Of English
colonists on jamestown Island by
their chaplain, the Rev: Robert Hunt;
was commemorated at Old Pohick
Church yesterday morning. The
Holy Communion was administered
by the Rev. S. A. Wallis, D. d., of
the Theological Seminary, near this
city, who also preached a sermon
appropriate to the occasion. There
was a large congregation present,
among the number being Acting Sec
retary of State Lansing, and Mrs
Lansing and DR.. Richardson, the
celebrated specialist, among the
physicians of Washington, and Mrs.
Richardson, who brought the Acting
Secretary Of State and Mrs. Lansing
in their car from Washington. After
service their party went to Gunston
Hall, where they were entertained by
Mr.. and Mrs. Hertle at dinner. In
the evening they went to Woodlawn
Mansion, the residence of Mrs
Sharpe, where they made a short
visit and then returned to Washing
ton. They had expected to take
tea at Woodlawn, but Mr. Lansing
felt that he must return as soon as
possible to the capital. DR.. and Mrs.
Wallis were guests both at the rec
tory and at 'Woodlawn,' and returned
to the Seminary that night.
