On November 29, 1828, a contract was awarded for the erection of the first structure, a modest frame affair, | , 40 by 50 feet, at Ninth and G. Rev. J. N. Danforth was chosen as “stated supply,” continuing in that position until 1832, when he was succeeded by Rev. Mason Noble as the first pastor. In the meantime 117 members had been added to the congregation. Dr. Noble was succeeded by Rev. John C. Smith, who was installed as second pastor of the church in 1839. The congregation had continued to grow and in 1840, under the direction of Dr. Smith, another edifice was| erected on the oppesite side of Ninth street from the site of the original edifice. This was 61 by 80 feet. The latter edifice was remodeled in 1856 and it was used by the congregation until it moved to Thirteenth and Fair- mont streets, Dr. Smith was succeeded as pastor by Rev. Joseph T. Kelly in 1878. The latter continued as pastor until No- vember, 1925, when he was made pas- tor emeritus. Dr. Kelly was succeeded by Rev. James H. Miers, the present pastor. —_— BRITISH AIR OFFICIALS LEAVE HERE IN PLANE Sir Phillip Sassoon and Party Fly to Langley Field on Inspection Tour of United States.
