Interesting Addresses Deliverea by ‘Well-Known Ministers and Lay- men—Pleasant Reminiscences. The laying of the corner stone of the new Methodist Episcopal Church took place yesterday afternoon at 5 o'clock, and called out a large assemblage of friends and mem- bers of the St. Paul's M. E. Church. Rev. Robert M. Moore, pastor of the church, took charge of the ceremonies, and introduced Rev. G. W. T. Wright, who in- voked the Devine blessing upon the new enterprise. Rev. James T. Marshall of the Warner Memorial Presbyterian Church, in a short address, congratulated his Metho- dist friends on behalf of the congregatinn he represented, and gave his best wishes in the building of the beautiful new edifice they were about to raise. Rev. R. D. Det- rick followed. He said the congregation of the St. Paul's Church had long felt the need of a larger place in which to worship, but it_had been the courage and work of Rev. R. M. Moore that had brought about the undertakirg, and to him belonged the praise. Mr. B. H. Warner read a letter from Sen- ator Wellington expressing regrets that he was unable to be present, and wishirg them all success. Mr. Warner spoke of the crowded conditien of beth of the Kensing- ton churches on Easter day, and said the new church would take up the overflow and supply a great need, as no one wish- ing to hear the word of God should he turned away. The steadily increasing high wind caused Mr. Warner to say that Meth- odism was born in storm, grew in storm, and; in spite of storm, was increasing and doing good all over the world. Dr. H. R. Naylor spoke at some length. He said he always liked to see brick and mortar. There was character in them in- dicative of the character of the building to be raised and of the people who Lad it in charge; that the building of sucn an edifice as this church spoke of »rogress and the grace of God in the hearts of the people; that when the building was com- pleted the work of the church would really begin—the work of uprearing a holy tem- ple in the hearts of men and dedicating them to the work of God. Dr. Nayior said the form of worship mattered little. He was reared a Presbyterian and his father was a Presbyterian deacon for nearly forty years: that while the Methodists and Pres- byterians each worshiped in their own way the same spirit of love and charity ani- mated beth alike. Articles Placed in the Stone. Rev. R. M. Moore read a letter of re- gret from Bishop Hurst, who was unable to be present and assist in the ceremonies, as he had hoped to be. Mr. Moore had re- quested that the regular Easter oiferings be reserved for the laying of the corner stone, and at this point the collection was taken. The list of articles placed in the stone were a copy of Saturday evening's Star, containing a cut of the new eburch, the Easter edition of the New York Ad- Vocate, Baltimore Advocate, a copy of Montgomery Press, a photograph of the town taken from the residence of Rev. J. T. Marshall, and showing the parsonage and the location of the church, a photo- graph of the parsonage, list of the build- ing vommuttee, architect, builier, member- skip of ckurch, coins, Methodist ‘discipline, Bible and hymnal. Presiding Elder Luther B. Wilson then began the dedicaicry pro- ceedings of laying of the corner stone, which consisted of prayer, the singing of “Christ, the Head and Corner Stone,” re- sponsive reading of the 132d psalm.’ Mr. W. H. Wheatley, the pioreer member of the church, assisted’ Dr. Wilson in placing the stone in position. Early Struggles of Methodists, The dedication of this handsome edifice naturally calls to mind the story of the early struggles and vexations, wihch Leset the handful of pioneers who first insti- regular Methodist scrvices in this nity. Among the first and Ost per- sistent of these is Mr. W: H. Whe . who is affectionately spoken of as a I'a- ther in Israel. In a reminiscent way he Says: “It was in 1 irst began coming | It was a wild region then, the under- growth and brambles being every wh be From the beginning of school vaca: n in Georgetown, where I resided, till school be- gan again our family sought recreation in the wood: If I missed the morning train, a freight, I could go back home again and wait till the next 4: Which is quite dif- ferent from our fiftesn-minute service. I belonged to the Methodist Protestant de- nomination and sadiy missed our Sunday worship. Rev. Mr. Berry, whose circuit embraced West Washington, Tenleytown, Sligo and Bethesda, promised to come once every four weeks and preach for us, provided the weather was fair and a roof could be found to shelter us. Sometimes We secured the old school house near Wheaton, and the novelty attracted a full house of people, with a large audience of colored people guarding the animals and vehicles scattered about the ground. “Sometimes we took our Bibles and | marched into the woods making them ring with our songs of praise. Various farm houses were opened to us cach summ=r, vntil about 1884, when I adopted my pr=: ent place as a permanent home. After the Sabbath mectings were nearly all held at ny huuse, save when the house was too small, when we adjourned to the wide- opened barn. Most of the worshipers be- longed to the Methodist Episcopal Church, and I joined with them in the work of buildirg a permanent church edifice. The place was then called Knowles, after an eld resident and large land owner. An Interesting Reminiscence. “One day he took me to a rise of ground and said, this spot he had reserved for the sight of a Methodist church. He died before funds could be raised fer the build- ing, and later I bought the place. Rev. Daniel Haskell, a missionary, full of zeal, worked early and late collecting money for the building. All were willing to contribuze in work, but money was scarce, and I think the largest sum from any one source was $5. We had raised $300 by various de- vices, and some of my city friends had given lumber, shingles and nails. We had a rocf, four bare walls, unlathed and un- plastered, and our only furniture consisted of the chairs we took to and from our homes, and a rude stand for a pulpit. One Saturday night Rev. Mr. Haskell came to my house full of enthusiasm. ‘I have just heard,” he said, ‘that we have a new neigh- bor who is a Methodist, and a giving Meth- odist, and I feel as if the Lord is about to help us.’ After praying for success we started on our visit to our neighbor, whom. neither of us knew. “I well remember that trip; it was dark and we had no lanterns. We scrambled through the gullies, and the dew on the weeds and bishes wet us to the knees. The brambles scratched our faces and picked our clothes. We were sorry looking visitors, and our wild dream of a $25 con- tribution grew less and less. We intro- duced ourselves, and our host, who proved to be Dr. R. B. Detrick, let us do most of the talkirg, as he is slow and deliberate of. speech. We talked as earnestly as we knew how; we presented all the advantages and hoped that he would do for us what he could; and I fear we fell to wondering how near to $25 the answer would be. When the doctor said, ‘well, I can spare yeu $100,’ I am afraid that our joy over- came our decorum. Whether we walked or ran home I never knew, but I do know that the Rev. Mr. Haskell’s belief that the Lord had sent us a helper through all difficulties has always proved a reality.’ ” The dedicatory services were held in 18835 by Rev. Richard Norris, and the builid- ing was as bare of crnamentation and com- fort as the most rigorous old-time Metho- Montgomery 3 28 i ily ? H SUBURBAN NEWS [Re ee eae ar ne Week, with Messrs. F. H.
