St. raal's Episcopal Church Olt-
serves Its Fiftieth Birthday.
An elaborate program and a banquet
at Willamette hall Monday nicht con
cluded the exercises commemorative of
its fiftieth anniversary. The services at
the church at 5 o'clock Sunday after,
noon had special reference to the first
organization of the church, the sermon
bearing on historical matters. The
choir sung an anthem, "Praife Ye the
Father," by Gounod. At the evening
service solos were sung by Dr. F. Free
man and Mrs. R. C. Ganong.
At the exercises Monday night Rev.
P. K. Hammond, the rector presided.
Colonel J. McCracken, the only living
survivor of those present at tha organi
zation of St. Paul's Episcopal church
on Mav 25th. 1851. He came up from
California by boat, his destination being
Oregon City. Rev. St. Michael Fack
ler held services here for several weeks
before the church organization, and Co
lonel McCracken stated that while he
was not a communicant at that time, he
had been raised in the Episcopal church,
and it made him feel piore at home to
attend church services, serving as a
pleasant reminder of his boyhood days.
He stated that Mrs. J. v. 1'ratt, mother
of W. E. Piatt, was a natural musician,
and while she sang and played the me
lodeon in the church, he attempted to
carry the bass part. Later, Mrs.
Holmes, an excellent singer, became a
member of the church, and he with
drew from the choir. Colonel Mc
Cracken paid a high tribute to Rev.
tackier, the first rector of St. Paul's
Episcopal church, and to Bishop Scott,
who devoted two years ot his hie to the
upbuilding of the parish here. He also
lauded ur. Mcuarver, oi cnapiain oi tne
Post at Vancouver, who occasionally
visited here and held services.
William Wright acquitted himself
very creditably in a solo, that sounded
verv much like "Betsy Jane." Mrs.
John Humphreys foliowed with a solo,
which was very favorably received.
Church Warden H. L. Kelly spoke
inteiestingly of ''Clergymen I Have
Known." While he showered baquets
in honor of many of the rectors of St.
Paul's parish, be no charity whatever
for a few that had been here. The talk
was given in Mr. Kelly's own inimita
ble Btyle, and solemn throughts were
enlivened with witty remarks.
Miss Mary Conyers sung "Day
Dreams," in a way that was approved
by the applause that followed. Mrs.
John Humphreys did very creditably in
a solo, and Miss Fairclough's recitation
was given with good elocutionary effect.
Mrs. Belle SeUwoodr widow' OI lr.
John Wi Sellwood, an early rector of
the church for 16 years, gave a very in
teresting talk on her experiences here.
She came to Oregon Oity a young bride
in 1865, and for awhile she and the
young rector boarded around, but fi
nally secured a large house now near
where the Baptist church stands. Later
they 'moved into" a house vacated by
Captain Appertoa. Finally, a rectory
was built. Then they lived in comfort.
She told how the few women did the
janitor work of the church, of the early
struggles of the guild, its victories and
triumphs, and the building ef the
church tover. She proudly called at
tention to the struggles and triumphs
of the little band of women, who la
bored faithfully for the upbuilding of
the chuicb.
Mrs. R. C. Ganong sustained excel
lent reputation as a vocalist in "My
Dream of You."
Mrs. Fannie L. Oochrane read an in
teresting history of the Guild since its
organization in 1874. This paper gave
something of its history on the 25th an
niversaiy occasion, which occurred a
couple of years ago.
Miss Imogen Harding was heartily
applauded in the rendition of her solo.
H. L. Kelly sung a couple of solos, and
addresses were made by George H. Wil
liams and A. Isoltner.
Rev. Hammond, the rector, presided
during the evening. The banquet was
a successful closing finale to the highly
interesting entertainment. It was in
cidentally mentioned during the even
ing that Miss Holmes, Mrs. O'Neill, the
Stattords, Warners and others in the vi
cinity of Mount Pleasant are entitled to
a fair share of the credit lor the success
of the banquet.
