That an engagement of marriage
was considered more seriously In
those days than it is today is evident
from the following which Mr.. Mackey
recites In his history of the church.
An incident occurred in the year 1850
which serves TO illustrate the char
acter of those times.
Row over an Engagement.
"The Rev. Hector Alison and some
young lady I'm this neighborhood had
entered into a marriage engagement.
He desired on some accounts to be
released from the obligation, but she
scrupled the lawfulness of their be-
ing loosed from said obligation. The
presbytery of New Castle laid the
matter before Synod. When he was
called before them he acknowledged
that he was culpable in entering into
such rash and unwarrantable methods
of engaging.' The discussion occu-
pied the Synod almost an entire day.
and they came to a resolution that a
rebuke before the Synod was neces-
sary 10 show their dctestation of such
rash proceedings in young people. A
committee Of Synod came to White
Clay Creek, and in company with him,
visited the young lady. They had not
the fun satisfaction of seeing the
affair concluded at that time. but the
next year the Synod were fully salts
fed by creditable information that
all obligations between said parties
were mutually discharged 10 the satis-
faction OF both
The third pastor was Rev. John Nc
Crery. who was installed as pastor of
both White Clay Creek and Head of
Christiana May 10, 1859. after the
former church had been without a
pastor for six years. Mr.. McCrery
was evidently held in high esteem by
the Synod as in 1863 that body" in
consideration of Mr.. Crery's great ser
vices on his mission to the western
frontiers Of Pennsylvania voted him
an additional allowance of five pounds.
In 1911 the Synod appointed him to
make a missionary tour of three
months in the south and provided for
the supply Of his pulpits in his absence.
The pastorate of the Rev. John
NcCrery covered the period Of the es-
tabIishment Of our National Inde-
pendence. OF this Mr.. Mackey says:
The armies passed through our
bounds and an important battle was
fought near our borders. In l716 the

soldier, unknown but weighted with
honors as perhaps no American be-

He kept lonely vigil lying in state
under the vast, shadowy dome of the
