\ TR ONBACHELORS . Washington,” AIDED LD CHURCH Tobacco Also Helped Keep Up St. Barnabas, Leeland, Md., _ C. C. Magruder Says. Tobaceo and a tax on bachelo above the age o years in the d: before the American Revolution aid ed In the upkeep of Barnabas Episcopal Church, at Le Georges County, Md., Magruder, W ngton lawyer, told the American Clan Gregor Society Friday in an address, during the pre- sentation of a tablet to the historic church, honoring members of the Magruder family who held church offices there in the early davs. One of the interesting things about the red brick edifice, Mr. Magruder said, was the mysterious disappear- ance and finding of the painting of Christ and the Apostles at the Last Supper, especially painted for the church by Gustavus Hesselius, a Swede, who came to America in 1711 and married a daughter of a rector of St. Barnabas, who served the church during the war of 1812. In some unknown way, the painting was removed from the church and ap- peared later at Georgetown, where it ‘was sold at public auction about 1848, Otho Z. Muncaster was the purchas- er and he gavedt to his daughter, Mrs, Helen Gassaway, now of Baltimore, and a sister of Dr. S. B. Muncaster of Washington. Mrs. Gassaway still owns the painting. “The pastor at St. Barhabas just before the American Revolution was Rev. Jonathan Boucher, friend of .George Washington, and sometime pastor of St. Anne’s Church, Anna- polis, and while there, tutor to John Parke Custis, son of Daniel Parke Custis and Martha Dandridge, who as a widow became the wife of George sald Mr. Magruder. *“Mr. Boucher was a Tory, and in de- fiance of his congregation, he preached allegiance to King George with cocked pistols on his pulpit until 1775, when he returned to England.” Parish Dates From 1692. Citing the anthlllly of the church, Mr. Magruder said: “St. Paul's is the oldest parish in Prince Georges, dat- ing from 1692, and the mother parish of Queen Anne parish of which St. Barnabas’ is the parish church, dating from 1704.” Defining the boundaries of the par- ish by the ‘law passed December 9, 1704, Mr. Magruder quoted the statute which said the parish would “begin and shall be adjudged and taken to begin with the dividing branches of Puttuxent River and to run with the ‘Western branch to a branch called Cabbin branch by the plantation of a | certain Capt. Edward Willett, and so with the Cabbin branch to the head thereof and the southernmost part to be adjudged to be St. Paul's parish.” John Duvall and Mary, his wife, Mr. Magruder asserted, donated the two acres of land’ on which the church and graveyard stand “to be her ma- | jestie’s Queen Anne, her heirs and | successors; for the use of theparish for a chiirch and a churchyard for- ever.” Service Traced to Queen Anne. Of the’ communion -service, which members Of the church say was donated by Qiieen Anne herself, Mr. Magruder said: “The service at St. Barnabas® comsists of four pieces—the chalice and the small paten, or plate, | the flagon and the farger plate. The words and date engraved on each are: ‘St. Barnabas Church of Merreland, 1718 They are of solid silver plate, hand hammered into shape, and technically called beaten silver.” | St. Barnabas' Church, | d, s the third bear: | ing this'mame iR Queen Anne parish. Mr. Magruer said his address was based oninformation taken from a| copy ©of the Queen Anne parish register, now in possession of the Maryland Historical Society. The tablet was unveiled by Florencs| Hall Magruder, a five times great granddaughter of James Magruder and of John Magruder, whose names appear on the tablet, and was dedi- cated by Rev. Enoch Magruder “Thompson, chaplain of the American Clan Gregor Society, a great-grand- son of Enoch Magruder and a great- great-grandson of James Magruder, whose names also appeared on the |} tablet.
