Sketch of St. Paul’s Church. -

The following historical sketch of St.
Paul’s Episcopal church, of Norwalk, ap-
peared in the issue of April 5th of the
Standard of the Cross, published in Phila-
delphia, contributed by the Rev. George
Nichols, D. D. :—

I propose to give your readers a brief
condensed history of St. Paul’s church,
Norwalk, Conn., which has had an existence
dating back to nearly sixty years before the
Revolution, and whose earlier edifice is
supposed to be the first Episcopal church
ever consecrated in America. No parish,
perhaps, exceeds this in rich historical
memories, and none can boast of a larger
and more eventful history. ‘

The first steps which were taken to form
St. Paul’s parish occurred in the year 1736,
when the Rev. Henry Caner, a graduate of
Yale of the class of 124, who took. orders in
the church, held occasional services in
private houses. But no church was erected
until six years after, and this was afterwards
burned by the British, July 11, 1779.

in 1755 Dr. Jeremiah Learning, who was
born ill Connecticut, and graduated at Yale
in 1745, and who soon after conformed to
the church, came here, having previously
officiated in Newport, R. I, eight years.
Dr. Lenming was a man held in high es-
teem, deservedly respected for his sound
learning and strict adherence to his church
principles. He lived during the darkest

CONVENIENT LITTLT“ COTTAGE of deen

and most perilous times of the Republic. In
consequence of his firm adherence to the
church and the crown he was persecuted and
often subjected to violence, by which he
became a cripple for life. When the church
was burned Dr. Leaming’s home was also
destroyed, together with all his books,
papers, furniture, clothing, in fact, every-
thing which he possessed. It is estimated
that his loss at that fatal time was not less
than twelve or thirteen hundred pounds
sterling. He remained in charge of Norwalk
parish twenty-oneyears, and then assumed
the additional care of Christ church, Strat-
fm'd, for the following eight years, until
1784. In 1783 Dr. Leaming was chosen
first Bishop of Connecticut, but declined the
offer on account of his age and infirmities,
and soon after he removed to New Haven,
where hedied in 1804. On his refusal of
the Bishopric, Dr. Samuel Seabury was
chosen the first Bishop of Connecticut,
March, 1783, at the convention held at
Woodbury.

In 1790 Rev. George Ogilvie officiated as
rector for six years, and resigned October
23d, 1796, when the Rev. Dr. Wm. Smith,
who had been educated at a University in
Scotland, and ordained a minister in the
Church of England, came here from New-
port, R. L, where he had officiated seven
years. He was a man of signal ability and
great influence in the councils of the church.
He remained here for only three years, from
1797 to 1800, and ofliciated in the new
church which had been erected just previous
to his coming, and which took the place of
the one burned in 1779. History speaks of
this second church as presenting a striking
and handsome appearance, with its vaulted
ceiling, chaste pulpit, carpeted aisles, grace-
ful spire, and a row of fine Lombardy pop-
lars which stood in front of the sacred
edifice.

In the fall of 1800 Dr. Smith resigned, to
assume the care of more important and re—
sponsible positions, when the Rev. Henry
Whitlock became the minister. This was
the 8th of November, 1800 He was a man
of well cultivated mind and singular devo-
tion to his sacred calling. But his ministry
was of short duration, as he died at the early
age of thirty-eight years, at Fayetteville,
North Carolina, where he went in quest of
health.

In the month of September, 1811, Rev.
Dr. Bethel Judd became the minister of St.
Paul’s, labored here with much zeal and
devotion for the space of five years, when,
in 1816, he was succeeded by Rev. Dr.
Reuben Sherwood, a man of education and
much force and ability, who combined
instruction and education along with his
pastoral duties, and established 'here a high
school, which was for some time an institu-
tion of much repute. .

From and after Dr. Sherwood’s ministry
the records of the parish are very brief and
meager, until the year 1831, at which time
the parish invited Bishop Brownell to make
a choice for them of a pastor. He nomin-
ated the Rev. Dr. Jackson Kemper. The
parish acquiesced in this excellent choice.

rom this time a new and interesting era
dawned on the parish. St. Paul’s people
warmly received and welcomed their new
pastor, and to this day the memory of his
many virtues and excellencies lives fresh
and green in the hearts of the people. Dr.
Kemper was a most impressive and attrac-
tive man in the pulpit and in the walks of
private life. His manner towards others
was one of the utmost grace and dignity;
his disposition one of sweetness and kind-
ness rarely to be met; his sermons were full
of wisdom and loving counsel; his visits to
the sick and afllicted and sorrowful were
most comforting and angel-like. During
his ministry here his beautiful and much-
loved wife was removed to the better land.
A handsome monument stands in the
churchyard, which commemorates her many
virtues. In the year 1835, after a brlef and
effective ministry of five years, Dr. Kemper,
was called to the Missionary Bishopric of
the Northwest, where, after the most earnest
and self-denying missionary labors, he died
May 21th, 1870, at Nashotak, where he had
founded a theological seminary destined to
exert a most important influence on the
church, and was buried beside the Nashotah
lakes.

This brings us down to the long eventful

ministry of the Rev. Dr. William Cooper

Mead, which lasted forty years and left such

an enduring impression upon this church

and community as never will be effaced or

forgotten. Dr. Mead was an able preach-

er, an impressive orator in the pulpit, a

great legislator in the church, learned in

Canon law, well known both in England

and America for his extensive knowledge of

ecclesiastical jurisprudence. He died at the

ripe age of 84 years.

The fine rural parsonage, which was his

home so many years, stands amid a para-

dise of elms, and many men of distinction,

high position and theological learning in

years past have enjoyed the converse and

hospitalities of that home, notably, Dr.

Harry Crosswell, of Trinity' church, New

Haven; Dr. Hawks and Dr., Morgan, of St.

Thomas’. New York; Dr. Coit, of Bridge-
port; Dr. Todd, of Stamford ; Bishop B. T.
Onderdonk, of New York ; Bishop Williams,
of Connecticut, and many others. Dr.

Mead'accomplished much in his day. He
wa linstrumental in the erection of the
present St. Paul’s church, which is a
fine edifice, has a commanding spire,
fine organ, elegant stained-glass windows
and other chancel adornments, fine
music and a iont of the purest, Italian
marble. Dr. Mead was also instrumental
in the erection of Trinity church, South
Norwalk, which was an ofihhoot from St

Paul’s. From his church also grew out
Christ church, Westport, and St. Mark’s,
New Canaan. He died July, 1879, and his
tomb is in the churchyard of St. Paul’s.

Since his death the parish has for a large
share of the time been under the supervxsion

 

 

 

and pastoral care of the Rev. Charles M.
Selleck, who is a native of Norwalk, and
was the able and faithful assistant of Dr.
Mead for fifteen years previous to his death,
and still holds the rectorship. He is an
able and attractive preacher, performs the
church services very impressively, and is
unequalled as a faithful pastor. He has a
stronghold upon the affections of the people
and designs to have an assistant with him
to share in his arduous labors.

Our Bridgeport Letter.

The thll‘d annual meeting of the Bridge-
port Christian Endeavor Union was held
on last Monday evening in the First Pres-
byterian church, on State street. Delega-
tions in large numbers were present from
Stratford, Fairfield, Southport, Greens
Farms, Black Rock and Monroe. The
secretary reported an increase of member-
ship over last year of 1,300. About 100
of these have been brought into the
church from the different societies during
that time. The former president, L. H.
Baker, having left the city to reside in the
South, Ml‘. H. D. Simonds was unani-
mously elected in his place. Mr. Simonds
1s principal of the Prospect street school,
and holds an important oflicein the Young
Men’s Christian Association here. His
election as president was greeted with
applause, as he is a very popular and
talented young man. The Rev. C. S.
Nash, of East Hartford, president of the
Connecticut Union, spoke on the subject
of “Evangelistic Work.” He urged with
great force that the societies should. work
outside of the church, and by their influ-
ence bring non church goers into the
church.

The Rev. L. R. Strecter, of the Firs
Methodist Episcopal Church, this city,
will remain as pastor of the church for
another year. This will make the fifth
year that he has been in Bridgeport, and
his people are very much endeared to him.

The Morning News and Evening Post, of
this city, are indulging in a discussion in
reference to their respective circulations,
(of course in a friendly manner.) Both
papers are well managed and have large
circulations, and a bright future awaits
them. The Morning News fills an im-
portant place as a morning paper. The
Evening Post fills an equally important
place in the community, and both papers
would be greatly missed it they were not
published.

Quite a number of changes will be made
in the church choirs, about May 1st. Mr.
S. S. Sanford has accepted the position as
organist in St. John’s Church, at a salary
of $1,000 a year, to fill the place made

trict Deputy of the Grand Lodge, will
make an official visit to Temple Lodge,
No. 65, at its next regular communication,
April 24.

There Seems to be a strong sentiment
among the people in favor of introducing
public water since Engineer Rider’s fig-
ures, showing the fall that can be obtained
in various localities near the town, were
submitted.

The ladies of the Congregational church
made a happy hit, and a very successful
One too, in their choice of a term to dcsig
nate their fair and festival which opened
Wednesday evening, at National Hall,
and continued three evenings. It was
held to benefit the church organ fund,
and the fund was increased ill the sum of
$300. There were seven booths, attended
each by four handsome ladies, attired
respectively to represent the seven colors
of the rainbow, and the spectacle they
presented when at work and animated
was very pleasing. The yellow booth
was in charge of Mrs. H. P. Burr and
assistants; green booth, Mrs. R. T. Less;
red booth, Mrs. E. Thorne; orange booth,
Mrs. B. L. Woodworth ; blue booth, Mrs.
W. H. Sexton; pink booth, Mrs. Lauder

Backus. As to the refreshment room that
also had attractions with such good ladies
as Mrs. Dr. Powers, Mrs. N. S. Kirk, Mrs.
James Mitchell, Miss'M. Blaisdell, and
Miss Arity Wakeman in charge. At the
rate of money coinage for the three nights
it will be only a little while before the
$1,500 needed for the organ is secured.
Those present all feel sure that they
would like to attend another rainbow.

There will be a meeting of the Board of

a change at the post office, by which it
has been changed to a- “money order”
ofiice. _

Increased interest is being taken in the

The railroad commissioners will.meet
here to- morrow and render their decision
in the Cockcroft estate case which, it is
believed, will be in favor of the railroad
company, to take the land they require.
The claim set up by many that the railroad
has nd right, under its charter, to take
this land or to build four tracks without
an amendment to the charter, is scouted

A Scrap of Paper Saves Her Life.
It was just an ordinary scrap of wrap-
ping paper, but it saved her life. She was
in the last stages of consumption, told by
physicians that she was incurable and
could live only a short time; she weighed
less than seventy pounds. On a piece of
wrapping paper she read of Dr. Klng’s
New Discovery, and got a sample bottle;
it helped her, she bought a large bottle, it
helped her more, bought another and

grew better fast, continued its use and is
now strong, healthy, rosy, plump, weigh-
ing 140 pounds. For fuller particulars

discovery free at-H. R. Hale’s drug store.

Mr. Carlisle is very much afraid that
pension legislation will bankrupt the
country. A man never baukrupted himself
by taking money from one pocket and
putting it into another, and a country can-
not be bankrupt by taking idle money out
of the Treasury and putting it into general
circulation by paying just debts to the men
who saved its life and made its prosperity.

The St. Paul’s church matter has brought
out the following spirited letter from Mr.
St. John Merrill, clerk of the parish, to
the Standard, in reply to a communication
from Norwalk, chronicling the doings at
the late annual meeting :—

GENTIEMENz—I notice ill your issue of

this dill" an item in relation to St. Paul’s
church, I this place, that there was a
stormy lune at their Easter Monday parish
meeting, and that a number of people did
not take their pews, and that a number of
the pews were not taken. I beg leave to
inform you that I was present at said meet-
ing, and that there was not a stormy time.
As to the pcwsin the church at the present
date, there remains in the square-body of
the church only four desirable or high-
priced pews not taken. As to the people
leaving the church, they are very few com-
pared to the number connected with the
church, which is over 600. Of those not
taking pews, some have not paid for them

for the past year, and some have not paid -

for them for three years.

During the past year the church has
made gains in its finances, and from Octo-
her 1, last, to April 1, $1,200 has been
raised by the envelope system. The Sun-
day school has been largely attended, to
which I can vouch, as I am its assistant
superintendent.

Of those few who have dropped out, the
hurt which will be done the church is of
no account—scarcely worth noticing. At
the parish meeting you refer to, the kick-
ers’ strengtb was 20 votes, and the church
side 60. The Rev. Charles M. Selleck is
the rector, a man of good, true and noble
heart, and those few here who are opposed
to him ought be ashamed of themselves.

Yours truly,
ST. J on}: MERRILL,
Pariah Clerk of St. Paul’s Church,
Norwalk, Conn.
