IN lRlNEiY CHURCH
Another beautiful memorial will be
added to the interior of Trinity
'church next Sunday morning when.
fiat. the late celebration of the Holy
Eucharist (10:30 a. m.). a. large and
(‘quilfllli‘ly dcsigncd hymn board will
be dedicated to the memory 01‘ Mrs.
Henry ()lmsiemi Bailey. who for many
years and until the time of her death
inst autumn was numbered amongst
the “most faithful and devout of Trin~
lly's parishioners. Because. of her
long and devoted service as choir
mother it is regarded are especially
fitting that n hymn board should have
been chosen to commemorate her
work and perpetuate. her memory in
the annals of Trinity parish.
'l‘hc hymn board is an unusually
large one. being twice. the size of the
old boards used in the church. and is
utter the. Decorated Gothic style. hav-
ing graceful pinnacles surmounted by
poppy ilnials on either side of the
pointed arch. and both the pinnacles
and the gable are richly crocketed
with hand-curved oak leaves. always
prominent in the Decorated Gothic
style. The posts are cursed with
deep panels. At the base of tie
board are. three trefoils emblematic
of the Blessed Trinity. In the peak
of! the gable at the. top is a, large tre-
foil enclosing a. Latin Cross .tloriated
and of grqceful design. The general
style of the board is almost identicsl
with that of the reed and bepistery
screens which were placed last sum-
mer. The design was drawn by the
Rector and the work executed by R.
Gelsselr. Inc.. of New York city. The
base of the memorial bears a bronze
plate with the following inscription:
"To the Glory of God and in Memory
of. Nora >Agnes Lloyd Bailey. for
Twenty One Years Choir Mother of
this Church. Entered into Permit-e
October 18. 1921. Given by her Hus-
band. Henry 0. Bailey!
The choir of Trinity is preparing
special music for the service of dedi-
cation and a. large congregation will
doubtless be present to honor the

the Poplar Plsins school house and

It appears that search of the rec-

that the records go back only to 1848
and that the property came into the

this time. The deed. or record of
