 Declining an invitation to the pas torate of the First Baptist church be- cause he felt that a more central To- cation than the West Side was desira- ble, Rev. Miner c. Clark.who had come to Norwich on the first of April in 1S40. was the inspiration for the for nation of the Central Baptist church. At first the town hall was engaged and preaching was begun there about July 1st. On Sept. a number of persons at a meeting at the home of Elisha ". Beckwith formed themselves into the ecclesiastical society, to be known as the Central Baptist society of Nor wich, and on the 18th of September. at the home of Avery Bromley on Un- ion street, the immortal 37 constituent members organized the Central Bap- tist church, with Rev. Mr. Clark as pastor.
 The speaker mentioned Mrs. Cornelia 4. CraRston. daughter of Morgan Saf- ford and Mrs. Austin F. Perkins, daughter of Edward Ray, as the two persons now in. the~ church member shin nearest related to any of these original 37, whose names are preserved upon a bronze tablet in the church.
 At the end of year the membership had grown to 19s. A lot was purchased on Broadway for $2.5G0 and a building erected at a, cost of $11,000, It was dsdicated just a year and three months from the organization of the church,
