Quarter Century.
Fourth of July, 18T7, will cloae up the history
not of a life time, but a quarter of a century
in the history of the tint Congregational
Church of this city, and thechureh, as acburch,
proposes a suitable celebration oranniversary
looking to the next centennial of the history,
and prosperity of tbet-hnrch, siuae the organi
sation on July 4th, 1352. It is somewhat re
markable, but true as remarkable, that only
two ministers, or pastors, have been employed
by this church, Revs. O. Dickinson and P. B.
Kuight, Rev. Dickinson retiring at hit own
instance, to engage iu secular pursuits. Rev. P.
B. Knight the present pastor, has filled the pul
pit very acceptably for a large share of this
"Quarter Century," and there ia no dispositien
or feeling that would give him up. .This end
ing of a '-Quarter Century" should be celebrat
ed or observed in a suitable manner.
