rear of the old church lot where
the colored peoples cemetery is.
So if they did not build the new
church on the site of the old as
some desired, they did compromise
the matter by taking as much of
the old site with them as they
could. The new building was a
plain two-story brick structure
without tower or bell, about 46 x
so feet with two class rooms and
a lecture room below and an audi
ence room and surrounding CALLER
les above.
The basement was first furnish
ed and dedicated by the Rev. JOS
eph Castle and j. Newland Moffett
in February, 1845, and the audi
ence room in December of the same
year by Bishop Waugh and DR..
Gerry. The cost of the building
was $1,000 and it would seat 600
people. They continued without
any material change until Satur-
day night, December 18th, 1859 A
fire broke out in the basement
Smyrna times., 1935-11-28

caused oy an over-heated stove,
burning out the basement floor all
the furniture and library of 1900
volumes.
The question of remodeling and
enlarging was under discussion for
more than one year, the basement
being in ruins during that time.
Under the inspiring leadership OF
the Rev. DR.. ]. F. Clymer the
trustees were induced to remodel
and enlarge the church building.
The specifications provided for
an addition of 18 feet to the length
of the church. A new pressed
brick front with two towers, one
surmounted by a spire of 135 feet
high and the other constructed so
as to harmonic with it. The base
ment floor was lowered two addi-
tional feet and two additional class
rooms were added and large stair
ways opened into broad and COM
modious vestibule above. The audi
ence room was also improved; the
breastwork of the gallery was also
changed to solid walnut. Iron pill
lars were installed as supports,
stain glass windows were put in,
the walls were frescoed and other
embellishments added. The whole
cost of Improvements was $4,000.
The reopening of the auditorium
occurred Sunday, December 1st,
1871, during the pastorate of the
Rev. DR.. George A. Phoebus who
succeeded DR.. Clymer. Bishop
Foster preached morning and even
ing.
In 1889, another improvement to
the auditorium was decided upon
which was completed during the
pastorate of the Rev. DIR. w. w. w.
Wilson consisting of an organ gal
lery, which fursishes a room for
the Beginners Department of the
Sunday School; new pipe organ,
rolled cathedral glass windows, a
new carpet, fresco, enlargement of
altar and a hard oil finish to the
woodwork amounting to about
$4,000. Since that time various
