Christmas Eve by various groups of
singers who would visit the homes of
their friends singing those sweet songs
of praise. One of these groups was a
quartet consisting of my uncle Dick.

wife of the Tribune publisher with his
sweet toned flute, Mr.. Humbert and
Samuel Jenkin with their silver toned
comets, and perhaps Mary Priestley

among the vocalists. The foregoing,
excepting Mr.. Jenkin, constituted the
orchestra of the old NJ. +. church. We
had congregation singing in those days
and from the ''amen corner" came bass
and tenor, alto and soprano voices that
any choir of today might well envy.
A peculiar custom existed in that
old church which | have never since

located at the back of the church and
when there was music by the choir the
congregation would rise and turn face
about with their backs toward the pull
pit, thus causing peculiar commotion
through the turning around process. |
am wondering if the old church is still
standing and what use is made of it. =
THE old building which was of stone
and dedicated in 1888, was converted
into carpenter shop soon after the
dedication of the present grand church

spring of 1880 the carpenter shop was
burned down. On the site there now

years ago. As boy helped tear down
the old brick structure that occupied
the site. My father and Uncle Dick
laid the foundation Of the church and
like all their work was most sub
stantially laid. There are stones in it
that to my knowledge weighed from
one to two ton. In the receptacle of
the corner stone among other souvenirs
of the time is my fathers portrait.
The men that laid the foundation would
also have built the main structure, but
an old Frenchman out bid them and
they knew that to compete with him

dishonor and that was the fate Of the
