NORTHMINSTER HYMN.

THE WORLD FOR CHRIST.

By the Rev. Robert P. Kerr, D. D.

"The world for Christ!" the angels sing,
As swift from star to star they fly ;
The world he died to save is his,
Give glory to our King most high.

The world for Christ! the martyrs join,
His wide dominion to proclaim ;

The King of angels is our king,
All laud and honor to his name.

The world for Christ ! in countless host,
The saints that throng the courts above.

With ceaseless praises, day and night.
Forever sing his wondrous love.

The world for Christ! let saints on earth,

His mercy tell to every soul,
'Till mortals all shall own him Lord,

From sea to sea, from pole to pole.

The world for Christ! from heaven to earth,
From earth to heaven his glory rings ;

While sons of men and shining hosts,
L'uite to crown him King of kings.

History of Northminster Church.

By Rev. ROBERT P. KERR, D. D., Pastor.

HISTORY of the church of God, or any part
of it, for any period, is but a review of God's
kindness to his people in connection with their
attempts to serve him in extending and build-
ing up his kingdom. Now that a quarter of a
century has passed since our church was
founded, it will be profitable to look back over that period to see
how, from a small beginning, the organization then effected has
grown to its present size and importance, that we may return
thanks to God for his great mercies, and with united voices say,
Ebenezer, hitherto hath the Lord helped us.

Like the church at Philippi, the first Christian congregation
organized in Europe, our church grew out of the prayers and
work of consecrated women. Mrs. Peyton Harrison, Miss Jane
M. Cross, and a few others, having become convinced that there
was a promising opening for a Presbyterian work in the northern
portion of Baltimore, determined that a Sabbath-school should
be established in that section of the city. Their efforts were
crowned with success, and on February 17, 1878, a school was
organized in Cowman's Hall at the southeast corner of Maryland
Avenue and Boundary Avenue, or what is now North Avenue.
Mr. William B. Phillips was elected as the first superintendent.
Mr. Phillips proved himself to be an indefatigable worker in the
Sunday-school not only, but also in the church, and to him was
largely due the organization, some years afterwards, of the

NORTHMINSTER PRESBYTERIAN ChURCH.

Waverly Sunday-school and Presbyterian Church. Our school
rapidly increased in numbers, and it soon became evident that a
regular church would grow out of the enterprise. Early in 1879
steps were taken to secure a permanent location, and to build a
chapel.

Mrs. Peyton Harrison purchased for $12,000 and donated
to the enterprise the fine lot on which the church now stands, at
the southeast corner of St. Paul Street and what is now North
Avenue. On April 28, 1879, the following gentlemen connected
with the Presbyterian congregations of the city were elected
trustees : W. W. Spence, Rev. Dr. J. C. Backus, John L. Reed,
W. B. Phillips, John C. Barkley, E. B. Hunting, E. H. Perkins,
Jr., J. Franklin Dix, Henry D. Harvey, Edmund G. Lind,
Albert A. Hasson, and Richard K. Cross. They became incor-
porated April 30, 1879, under the name and title "The Boundary
Avenue Presbyterian Church." This charter was recorded in
the charter record of the city May 13, 1879. Article VI. of the
charter declared that "the Boundary Avenue Presbyterian
Church of the city of Baltimore shall forever remain a Presbyte-
rian Church in doctrine, government and worship, in accordance
with the standards of the Presbyterian Church in the United
States ; that is to say, the Confession of Faith, and the Larger
and Shorter Catechisms, and in ecclesiastical connection with
the Presbytery of Baltimore."

Subscriptions were soon obtained for the erection of a chapel,
at the rear of the lot and facing St. Paul Street. The corner-
stone was laid by the Rev. J. C. Backus, D. D. The sermon for
the occasion was preached by the Rev. J. S. Jones, D. D., and
prayers were offered by the Rev. William S. Plumer, D. D.,
and the Rev. Peyton Harrison, D. D. The chapel was completed

NORTHMINSTER PRESBYTERIAN ChURCH.

by March, 1880, at an expense of $18,311.88, $5,000 of which
was contributed by the Presbyterian Association of P>altimore.
But before this the Boundary Avenue Presbyterian Church had
been formally organized by a committee of Baltimore Presbytery
on the 17th of February, 1880, in Cowman's Hall, where the
Sabbath-school had been conducted for two years. The com-
mittee of Presbytery to organize the church consisted of Rev.
J. G. Gibson, Rev. J. S. Jones, D. D., Rev. Andrew B. Cross, and
Elder J. Farris Moore.

The following eighteen persons entered into the organization,
presenting their certificates of dismission from other churches:

John M. Cross, from Central Presbyterian Church, Baltimore.

Louis Giese, from Central Presbyterian Church, Baltimore.

James M. Huggins, from Brown Memorial Church, Baltimore.

Mrs. Jane E. Huggins, from Brown Memorial Church, Baltimore.

Miss Mary E. Huggins, from Brown Memorial Church, Baltimore.

Richard K. Cross, from Brown Memorial Church, Baltimore.

Miss Jane M. Cross, from Brown Memorial Church, Baltimore.

John C. Barkley, from Westminster Church, Baltimore.

Mrs. Ida V. L. Barkley, from Westminster Church, Baltimore.

Miss Eliza Bride, from Westminster Church, Baltimore.

Wm. B. Phillips, from Westminster Church, Baltimore.

Edward F. Arthurs, from Franklin Street Church, Baltimore.

Francis Hutchinson, from Second Presbyterian Church, Baltimore.

Mrs. Francis Hutchinson, from Second Presbyterian Church, Baltimore.

Miss Elizabeth P. Rivers, from Presbyterian Church, Smyrna, Delaware.

Miss Marian P. Jones, from Presbyterian Church, Smyrna, Delaware.

Mrs. Charlotte S. Cross, from United Congregational Ch., Newport, R. I.

Messrs. William B. Phillips and Richard K. Cross were at
the same meeting elected elders, and Messrs. J. C. Barkley,
Edward F. Arthurs and Allen Marquand were elected deacons.

8 NORTHMINSTER PRESBYTERIAN ChURCH.

The next step was to elect a pastor for the flock thus formed,
and under the evident guidance of the Holy Spirit, the Rev.
George Tybout Purves, of Wayne, Delaware county, Pa., was
unanimously called, a selection which proved a happy one indeed
for the church and pastor.

While the chapel was in course of erection and services were
still held in the hall, one of the Sunday-school scholars, Arthur
Corbin Powell, died, the first one ever called away from our
school to the courts on high. In the Sunday-school room of the
new chapel his parents, Mr. and Mrs. William M. Powell, placed
to his memory a beautiful stained-glass window with this in-
scription :

In Memory of

ARTHUR CORBIN POWELL,

The First Member of this School Called to Jesus.

November 15, 1879.

The chapel was formally dedicated to the worship of God,
March 7, 1880, the Rev. J. C. Backus, D. D., offering the dedi-
catory prayer, and the Rev. J. S. Jones, D. D., preaching the
sermon. At the evening service of the same day Mr. Purves
preached his first sermon as pastor.

On Tuesday evening, March 16, 1880, Mr. Purves was
formally installed, the Rev. J. T. Leftwich, D. D., presiding;
the Rev. J. P. Campbell, D. D., preaching the sermon; the Rev.
J. S. Jones, D. D., delivering the charge to the pastor, and the
Rev. W. J. Gill the charge to the people.

The next day, the 17th of March, Mr. Richard K. Cross was
installed ruling elder. Mr. Phillips having been already or-
dained and installed by the committee of Presbytery on February

17th, and Messrs. J. C. Barkley and E. F. Arthurs were ordained
and installed deacons.

On the same day the first meeting of the session was held,
Mr. Purves presiding, and Mr. Richard K. Cross was elected
clerk, which position he has faithfully and acceptably held up
to the present time. At this first meeting of the session the
following persons were received into the church :

On Confession.
William Major Powell.
Miss Laura Belknap Hunting.
Clarence Hays Hunting.

On Certificate.
Mrs. Ann C. Arthur, from Franklin Street Presbyterian Church, Baltimore.
Mrs. Eliza Ferguson, from Franklin Street Presbyterian Church, Baltimore.
Miss Jane Coney, from Franklin Street Presbyterian Church, Baltimore.
E.EUBEN Foster, from Second Presbyterian Church, Baltimore.
Mrs. Sarah L. Foster, from Second Presbyterian Church, Baltimore.
Douglas Foster, from Second Presbyterian Church Baltimore.
Mrs. Mary E. Foster, from Second Presbyterian Church, Baltimore.
Edward L. Thomas, from Brown Memorial Presbyterian Church, Baltimore.
Mrs. Bettie S. Thomas, from Brown Memorial Presbyt'n Ch., Baltimore.
William S. Cross, from Brown Memorial Presbyterian Church Baltimore.
Mrs. Emma B. Powell, from the Associate Reformed Church, Baltimore.
Miss Mary R. Patterson, from the United Presbyterian Ch., Baltimore.

This was a happy and hopeful beginning of the work of the
new church, and the sequel abundantly justified the hopes of
those who had given themselves to the sacred enterprise.

The first of all the working societies of the church was the
Woman's Aid Society for general church work, but afterwards
turned into a missionary society for Home and Foreign Mis-

lO NORTHMINSTER PRESBYTERIAN ChURCH.

sions. It was organized November 3, 1880, with twenty-three
members, which number was increased to forty-three before the
year was out. The first officers were Mrs. Alexander F. Mur-
doch, President;' Mrs. B. F. Stead, Vice-President; Miss
Alexina Crawford (afterwards Mrs. WilHam B. PhilHps),
Secretary, and Mrs. Reuben Foster, Treasurer. Mrs. Foster has
held the office of Treasurer without intermission to the present
day, giving heart and hands to the great work of the Society.
The interest of the members of this Society has never flagged,
and they have done a grand work for the cause of God at home
and abroad by the money they have given themselves and col-
lected from others, as w^ell as by their prayers and the inspiration
their example has given to the whole congregation.

Mr. Purves' ministry was most acceptable, and the attend-
ance at the services constantly increased, while the membership
was steadily enlarged by additions on confession and certificate.
In less than five years the communicant roll had grown to 219,
and that of the Sabbath-school to 250. Mr. Purves was uni-
versally beloved, and the attendance upon his ministrations
crowded the chapel to its utmost capacity.

In January 24, 1883, Mr. John L. Reed and Mr. E. B.
Mallory were elected ruling elders, and on February 24th Mr.
Mallory was ordained, and he and Mr. Reed were installed.

On the 5th of October, 1883, the Rev. W. A. Jones was
authorized to engage a hall at $5.00 per week for services at
Waverly. This was the beginning of the Waverly Presbyte-
rian Church.

Towards the close of the year 1883 it became manifest that
the main edifice of the church must be built, and on December
5th, at a congregational meeting, a committee of seventeen was

NORTHMINSTER PRESBYTERIAN ChURCH. II

appointed, with authority to raise funds, and as soon as they
had secured $25,000 to proceed to the erection of the church.
The congregation was thoroughly canvassed, and handsome
contributions were also received from generous Presbyterians
in other congregations of the city, among whom were the Rev.
J. C. Backus, D. D., Mr. George S. Brown and Mr. W. W.
Spence.

On June 4, 1884, the corner-stone of the present magnificent
marble building was laid by the pastor, Mr. Purves. The cost
of the building, ground, organ and manse was as follows :

The lot of ground on the southeast corner of Boundary Avenue

and St. Paul Street, donated by Mrs. Ella M. Harrison, $12,000.00

The strip of ground adjoining on the east, bought from the Balti-
more City Passenger Railway Company, 1,638.88

The chapel, completed on April 8, 1881, cost, 18,311.88

The church, completed July 15, 1885, cost, 57,99377

The church organ, built by George Jardine & Son, of New York,

including the water motor, 3,000.00

Total cost of church, chapel and organ, $92,944.53

The manse, bought April 29, 1895, No. 1808 St. Paul St., and cost, 7,528.06

$100,472.59

The building committee, every member of which cheerfully
gave themselves to the great work committed to them, consisted
of Messrs. John Murdoch, Reuben Foster, Oliver Hoblitzell,
Richard K. Cross and John L. Reed.

Mr. Murdoch was the indefatigable chairman, and by reason
of his professional skill and taste, as well as by his devoted
interest in the work, he did a great service to the church, and
one that has been highly appreciated. From 1886 to this day

1^2 NORTHMINSTER PRESBYTERIAN ChURCH.

Mr. Murdoch has been also chairman of the Executive Com-
mittee of the Board of Trustees, having charge of the church
property, and all repairs and improvements.

To Mr. John L. Reed fell the laborious task of treasurer of
the building fund, and afterwards of the manse fund, and he
did his work not only with energy and zeal, but also con amove,
and he has done also all other work that has come into his hands,
for the church, and it has always been evident that he loves the
very stones of the house of God, and takes pleasure in the dust
thereof, as he does also all that pertains to the interests of our
beloved Zion.

On the 1 8th of March, 1885, Messrs. William M. Powell,
Alvin N. Bastable, and Alexander H. Fields were elected dea-
cons.

The church building was dedicated March 22, 1885, the
Rev. George T. Purves preaching in the morning, and the Rev.
A. A. Hodge, D. D., of Princeton, N. J., in the evening. This
was followed by a union service on the next Tuesday, at which
addresses were made by the Rev. J. T. Leftwich, D. D., and
others.

On February 8, 1882, Mr. Reuben Foster was elected one of
the Board of Trustees, and, with the exception of a brief interval,
has been a member ever since that time. On February 14, 1883,
he was elected to the office of chairman of the Board of Trustees,
and again on March 23, 1886, and has filled that important office
continuously since, with such ability, devotion and tact as to win
and hold the respect and love of all the people.

Mr. Purves, whose pastorate had been greatly blessed to the
increase of the church, in numbers, financial strength, and to its
growth in grace, having been called to the pulpit of the First

Presbyterian Church, of Pittsburg, Pa., resigned his office on
June 2, 1886, and the congregation rehictantly assented, not
feeUng it right to oppose their pastor's convictions of duty.
But the people whom he had served so acceptably and success-
fully have never ceased to hold him in loving remembrance.

$2,151.31 ; frescoing and windows of church, $1,200; remodel-
ing chapel, $1,500; remodeling library, $100; chapel chairs,

; infant-class chairs, $14; manse debt, $500; piano for

H. B. Shipley, Vice-President.
C. H. Ashburner, Secretary.
W. Harvey, Assistant Secretary.
J. W. Taylor, Treasurer.

On the 24th of March, 1888, the Stephenson Missionary
Society of Gleaners was organized for the younger girls of
the church. Their first officers were :

Miss Lucy Crawford^ President.

J. BuRKLOE Brown, Secretary.

A. D. Seeman, Assistant Secretary.

R. Carll Foster, Treasurer.

C. Reynolds Bedford, Assistant Treasurer.

The Junior Christian Endeavor Society was organized
November 23, 1890, with the membership of twenty-five. Rev.
William Durant, D. D., and Miss Florence Stratton (Mrs.
Weaver) were elected superintendents. The name of the society
was the "Westminster Christian Endeavor Society of Boundary
Avenue Presbyterian Church." The object of the society was
the training of the children in deeper spiritual life, and more
active Christian work. The names of the superintendents from
the time of organization to the present are as follows :
At organization —

Rev. William Durant, D. D., Miss Florence Stratton,

Miss Virginia Armiger, Miss Isabella Carswell,

Miss May Haughwout, Miss Hattie A. Steuart.

The present superintendents are :
Miss Roberta Carswell, Miss Hattie A. Steuart.

Dr. Durant also established the "J^i^t Meeting" of the
Session, Deacons, and Trustees, February 20, 1891, meetings
to be held on the first Monday in February, and on the second
Monday in October annually, and at other times when called by
the Moderator for conference in the interest of the church.

l6 NORTHMINSTER PrESBYTERIAN ChURCH.

At the February meeting, young men, communicants of the
church, are selected to assist in promoting the welfare of the
church, in connection with the Session, Deacons, or Trustees, as
may be desired, and for conference, and to act as ushers at the
services of the church. This "Joi^^ Meeting" has been a means
of great good in the work of the congregation, in bringing all
the officers into intimate relations, and in acquainting them
with the condition of "affairs in each board, thus increasing the
general interest and promoting unity of action.

Mr. George B. Hunting is, and has been from the beginning,^
the Permanent Clerk of the "Joint Meeting," evincing great
tact, faithfulness and courtesy in the administration of his office.
Mr. Hunting has also been for many years secretary of the
Board of Trustees, and in this position as well he has shown
himself a thorough man of affairs, and a devoted servant of the
church.

On the 1st of March, 1888, Wesley G. Fortune was ap-
pointed sexton of the church, which position he still holds, as he
has been, during the long period of seventeen years, a faithful
"doorkeeper in the house of the Lord," and care-taker of the
building, with uncommon faithfulness, efficiency and courtesy,
endearing himself to every fnember of the congregation, and to
all of the pastors under whose administrations he has served.

On the 28th of March, 1888, Mr. Hiram H. Taylor was
elected treasurer of the Board of Trustees, and to this day he
has filled that delicate and laborious office with such fidelity,
courtesy and tact as to merit and receive the gratitude and affec-
tionate regard of all the members of the congregation.

Mr. Henry D. Harvey, a beloved member of the church, died
2 1 St December, 1889, and left by his last will to the Boundary

mr^

Avenue Presbyterian Church the sum of $2,000 for the Hbrary
of the Sabbath-school, and the sum of $1,000 to the church for
the reduction of the debt, or to the general purposes of the
church. Both of these bequests were very much appreciated, and
came to us in a time when the church needed the assistance, and
they were an inspiration towards the removal of the debt of
$8,000 which rested upon the church, which was afterward
all paid, leaving the church and manse entirely free from debt.

The $2,000 left for the library was invested by the Board
of Trustees in "irredeemable ground rents," yielding the sum of
$124 annually, which income is applied by a committee of the
Sabbath-school in purchasing new books for the library, and in
keeping the old books in good repair, thus maintaining the
library handsomely.

The Sabbath-school had a new library room prepared, with
new shelves and cases for the reception of the new books, and
placed the inscription on the door, Harvey Memorial Library.

January 25, 1891, Messrs. J. Hume Smith and T. Melville
Prentiss were installed ruling elders in the church. Both of these
elders served the church faithfully, greatly honored and loved,
until they were called away to their eternal rest, Mr. Prentiss
on September 29, 1901, and Mr. J. Hume Smith, September 5,
1904.

Dr. Durant, the scholarly preacher and polished Christian
gentleman, as well as indomitable worker and wise organizer,
served the church, greatly beloved and honored, until May 9,
1892, when he resigned his charge, and the congregation were
left again without an under-shepherd.

On the 17th of October, 1893, the Rev. Frank E. Williams
was called to the pastorate, and was installed December 20, 1893.

l8 NORTHMINSTER PRESBYTERIAN ChURCH.

Mr. Williams was quite a young man, but full of zeal, and gifted
with fine talents as a preacher and pastor, and he threw himself
into the work with great earnestness and enthusiasm. The
church continued to grow in numbers and influence under Mr.
Williams' labors, and when he gave up his charge he left it a
solid, harmonious and intelligent body of Presbyterian Chris-
tians, in excellent condition for any one who might follow, to
reap the fruit of his labors.

On October 22, 1893, Messrs. Franklin J. Morton and
Albert L. Gardner were ordained and installed ruling elders, and
on the same day, Messrs. J. Kemp Wysham, Eugene M. Hilder-
man, William G. Garrett and George H. Porter were ordained
and installed Deacons.

During the year 1897 the Purves Society of Earnest
Workers was organized, consisting of the girls of the congre-
gation. The first officers of this faithful body of workers were :

Mrs. Spencer E. Sisco, Leader.
Miss Leila Skeen, President.
Miss Mary Reeside, Secretary.
Miss Alberta Smith, Treasjirer.

On the 17th of September, 1900, Mr. William M. Powell, a
wise, faithful and devoted member of the church and of the
Board of Trustees, passed to his reward, honored and mourned
by the whole congregation.

The Rev. Frank E. Williams resigned his office as pastor
December 10, 1902, the congregation, in compliance with his
earnest request, sorrowfully consenting, and his official connec-
tion with the church terminated December 31, 1902. Mr. Wil-
liams is now pastor at Lewes, Delaware, and whenever he visits

his former charge in Baltimore he receives a hearty welcome
from his old friends and from his successor.

The present pastor, who was then pastor of the First Pres-
byterian Church, of Richmond, Va., which position he had held
for nearly twenty years, was called to the pulpit of Boundary
Avenue Church, on April 22, 1903. He took charge of the
church June ist, and was formally installed June 14, 1903, at
the evening service. The Rev. Henry Branch, D. D., presided
and propounded the constitutional questions, the Rev. Donald
Guthrie, D. D., preached the sermon, the Rev. J. P. Campbell,
D. D., delivered the charge to the pastor, and the Rev. John
Timothy Stone the charge to the people. The congregation
have given their pastor a most hearty welcome, and are co-
operating with him cordially in his work for the Master.

On the 30th of March, 1904, it was decided, at a meeting of
the congregation, to change the title of the church from "Boun-
dary Avenue Presbyterian Church," the name no longer being
appropriate because the name of the avenue upon whi(ih it was
situated had been changed to North Avenue. The title adopted
was "The Northminster Presbyterian Church of Baltimore
City," and on March 31, 1904, the charter of the church was
amended accordingly.

During the summer of 1904 the pulpit platform was extended
three feet and three inches forward, and a beautiful Gothic
reredos of solid oak was built across the arch in the rear, at an
expense of $1,610, adding greatly to the beauty of the church,
and affording space on the pulpit platform back of the reredos
for a comfortable retiring and robing room for the miniscer.

From the beginning the congregation have taken a deep
interest in missions, both home and foreign. During the year

20 NORTHMINSTER PRESBYTERIAN ChURCH.

1899 it was determined to assume the support of a foreign mis-
sionary, and the Rev. C. E. Patton, a highly promising young
minister of our denomination, was appointed to labor in China.
Mr. Patton found a helpmeet in Miss Edith Rosa Carswell, a
lovely young Christian lady of the congregation, and they were
married June 7, 1900, and the last of October, 1900, they sailed
for China, where Mr. Patton still labors, at Yeung Kong, China.
Mrs. Patton was removed by the hand of God, and entered upon
her everlasting rest April 2, 1902, leaving one child, Edith, now
living with 'her mother's parents at Baltimore. Mr. Patton has
proved himself a faithful and able missionary, and is doing a
successful work in his distant field, while the people of our
church constantly remember him in their prayers.

The mission at Waverly, in the northern suburbs of Balti-
more, which was begun in 1883, was organized into a church
in 1887, a number of members being sent out from our congre-
gation for the purpose, and it is now a growing congregation,
under the pastoral care of the Rev. John R. Rosebro.

During the year 1903, two beloved ladies of our church,
Mrs. Fannie S. Taft Prentiss and Miss Elizabeth V. Prentiss,
went to India as missionaries, where they are now, at Etah,
devoting their lives to the great cause which is so near to the
heart of the Master.

We have thus given a brief sketch of the history of our
beloved church during the quarter of a century of its existence.
The years past have witnessed much consecrated toil on the part
of officers and people, and the members of the church have con-
stantly shown a spirit of harmony and co-operation, and a
readiness to deny themselves for the cause of God. The congre-

NORTHMINSTER PRESBYTERIAN ChURCH. 21

gation has grown steadily from the beginning, and now that the
population of this section of Baltimore has increased, and is
increasing so rapidly, there is good reason to expect, under the
blessing of the Master whom we serve, greater growth in the
time to come. The church is full of courage and hope, and our
motto is, Forward in the Name of God.

The present pastor would like to say, that he has found the
members of the official bodies of the church, the Session, the
Trustees and the Deacons, to be earnest promoters of the work
of the church, always ready to give their time, labors and best
thought to the important interests committed to their hands.
They have been perfectly harmonious among themselves, and
extremely courteous to the pastor; but more than that, they
have not failed to do everything he has asked of them. To be
associated with such men is a great happiness to the pastor, and
it gives him courage and inspiration for his work.

The same spirit of harmony, courtesy and readiness to help
in the cause which brings us together has been manifested by
the various societies and by the congregation. May the great
Head of the church keep us all in the bonds of charity, unity
and peace !

WHAT THE PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH
STANDS FOR.

The Presbyterian Church stands for a system of doctrine based upon the
absolute and eternal sovereignty of God, by whose grace alone fallen men
are saved, through the blood of Christ, who purchased salvation for us by
his death on the cross; the benefits thereof being applied by the Holy Spirit,
who worketh in us repentance for sin, and faith to receive the gift cf eternal
life.

The Presbyterian Church stands for the catholicity or universality of the
holy church of God, maintaining that Christ is its only Head, and that it is
composed of "all those persons throughout the world, who profess the true
religion of Christ, together with their children" ; thus recognizing the
churchship of all denominations which hold the fundamental truths of the
gospel, receiving their ministers in our pulpits, and their members at our
communion.

The Presbyterian Church, in its own polity, stands for a government by
representative assemblies, from the Session up through the Presbytery and
Synod to the General Assembly, each made up of presbyters, or elders, ruling
and teaching, called by Christ through his word and Spirit, and elected by
the people whom they represent.

The Presbyterian Church stands for religious and civil liberty, declaring
that "God alone is Lord of the conscience, and hath left it free from the
doctrines and commandments of men." It stands for the inspiration and
absolute infallibility of the holy Scriptures, for a faith and life based upon
an intelligent apprehension of the truth, for simplicity of worship, for
thorough education, for a high standard of Christian living, and for the duty
of the church to evangelize the world.

Of the influence of Presbyterianism William E. Gladstone said : "It has
given the advantages which in civil order belong to local self-government
and representative institutions; orderly habits of mind; the development of a

NORTHMINSTER PreSBYTERIAN ChuRCH. 29

genuine individuality; the sense of a common life and the disposition ener-
getically to defend it; the love of law combined with the love of f'eedom."

George Bancroft said of American Independence that "the Revolution of
1776, so far as it was affected by religion, was a Presbyterian measure. It
was the natural outgrowth of the principles which the Presbyterianism of the
old world planted in her sons, the English Puritans, the Scotch Covenanters,
the French Huguenots, the Dutch Calvinists, and the Presbyterians of
Ulster."

President Benjamin Harrison said : "The Presbyterian Church has been
steadfast for liberty, and it has kept steadfast for education. It has stood as
stiff as a steel beam for the faith delivered to our fathers, and it still stands
with steadfastness for that essential doctrine — the inspired Word. It is not
an illiberal church. There is no body of Christians in the world that opens
its arms wider to all who love the Master.' Though it has made no boast or
shout, it has yet been an aggressive church. It has been a missionary church
from the beginning."

IMPORTANT NOTICES.

By the Pastor.

If you are sick, or know of any sickness or trouble in the
congregation, please notify the pastor at once, either by postal
card or otherwise.

The pastor visits among the congregation systematically,
calling on each family in turn, as frequently as the size of the
congregation will allow. If you do not see your pastor as often
as you would like, call on him.

The roll of members is revised annually, and the names of
persons whose residences are unknown are omitted from the
published Directory. They are retained, however, in the Church
Register.

Every member of the congregation should belong to some
one of the societies of the church.

It is the duty of all who can do so to attend both the services
on Sunday, and the Wednesday evening prayer-meeting, and
also to take some part in the Sunday-school.

The pastor and his wife are at home Tuesday afternoons and
evenings, but are glad to see those who call at any time.

NORTHMINSTER CHOIR.

The choir, in the early days of the church, was under the
leadership of Mr, WilHam S. Cross, who not only gave his own
services free of cost to the church, but paid for the voices com-
posing the quartet choir from his own private funds, thus saving
the church from the expense of the choir (except the organist)
at a time when the church needed it, and up to March 23, 1886.

The organist at that time was Mr. Thomas S. Callis, who
continued to be for eig'hteen years, up to March, 1900, very
acceptably. We have had the following to sing for us : Miss
V. Schaefer, Miss M, Fort, Mr. Henry Waltjen, Miss Town-
send, Mr. Henry S. Macubbin, Mrs. Thomas S. Chappell, Miss
Augusta Dade, Mrs. Bettie H. McEwen-Dodge, Miss Lina A.
Thomas, Mr. Thomas L. Thomas, Miss Mabel Stevenson, Mrs.
Sarah Reed Hoke, Mr. Lewis R. McClure, Jr., the Misses Noel,
Miss Ada MacMitchell, Mrs. Dorothy L. Franklin, Mrs. Emilie
H. Andrews, J. Allan, Houghton, Mr. E. Russell Prescott was
our organist from March, 1900, until May i, 1903. Mr. John C.
Bowerman was organist for four months.

OUR WORK IN CHINA.

From our Missionary Pastor, Rev. Charles E. Patton.

The following report from Mr. Patton for November, 1904,
will give an idea of his work in China :

At six chapels visited during November, 19 services were
held, 51 candidates examined, of whom 14 were received and
baptized, among them one woman.

Two infants were baptized at Shui Tung; one, the three
weeks' old son of the elder.

Three workers were notified of dismissal for lack of funds ;
two other cases are pending.

One man of the Theological Training Class has been dropped
partly through lack of funds.

Our itineration for the year has been reduced one-third to
keep our expenditures within our share of the board's appropria-
tion for the year's work.

During November itineration arrangements were made at
Mui Luk for the purchase of a chapel building and payment of
one-half year's local expenses which had nearly fallen through;
at Faa Chau for the local support of a chapel-keeper; at Shui
Tung for the same ; at Slan Hei for the purchase and repair of
a chapel building, with local running expenses; these all to be
borne by local members.

NORTHMINSTER PRESBYTERIAN ChURCH. 53

At Ko Chau $300 mex. is being collected toward the pur-
chase of a chapel building.

Most of the chapels visited during November had not been
visited for six months. The results prove the necessity for more
frequent itineration and closer oversight. Our limited funds and
limited force limit our possibilities. One-half of our field is
being covered four times during the year ; the other half, from
two to three times.

Native Christianity Generosity.

It is sometimes affirmed that the Christian faith has little
hold on the hearts, and commands little self-denial on the part of
the Chinese, who profess it. Recently, a Chinese Christian, in
business in Canton, headed a subscription list for a new church
to be built in Hongkong with the substantial sum of $1,000.
This is only one of his gifts. Indeed, it would surprise some,
and, we would fain hope, gratify many, who know too little of
the facts, could they but know the considerable sums which
native Christians give for the support and extension of Chris-
tianity here in their own province.

May the new year be full of blessings for Northminster
Church, and, through it, for others, is the earnest prayer, from
over the seas, of

Sincerely, Charles E. Patton.
