(P—The heirs of Abraham Lincoln are to crect on an old shrine a modern memorial to the Civil War presi- dent. During the dark days of the Civil War period President Lincoln used to go for consolation and spiritual inspiration to Dr. Phineas D. Gur- ley, minister of the New York Ave- nue Presbyterian church, Jocated three blocks east of the White House. The old church was erect- ed in 1859 and st stands, Except for one change, church today is as it was when Lincoln worshipped there every Sunday morning and every Thurs- day night. In 1596 Washington was hit by a severe wind and rain storm which blew down the great steeple that towered .above the church. The steeple and bell have never been replaced. Now, Mrs. Robert Todd Lincoln, daughter-in-law of the emancipator, the and other members of the family, have donated funds with which to erect a new steeple. In the tower will bet a set of chimes and on top of the spire will be a beacon light to guide aviators in their night flights over the city. It will be an old-fashioned steeple, but will serve a modern purpose, unheard of when Lincoln sat in his pew, which is still standing, in the front of the sanctuary below, The New York Avenue church, which is observing its quatri-cen- tennial this year, has numbered cleven presidents among its regular worshippers. In that period it ha had only eight pastors in direct succession. The first pastor was the Rev. James Lauriec. who came to Washington in 1503, bringing with him his bride, the cousin of Sir Walter Scott, and the original . manuscript of the Lay of the Last Minstrel the poet. as a Dr. wedding gift from Laurie founded the | church and remained its pastor for 50 years, when by Dr. Gurley.
