At the conclusion of Dr. Hollister's address, which was the crowning feature of the day, a few remarks were made by Father Stone, the only surviving member of the original church, and the afternoon exercises •closed with singing.
EVENING SERVICES.
At six the ladies of the church served a most bountiful and elegant collation in the spacious parlors of the church, which were crowded with members and visitors. An hour was given to delightful social intercourse.
In the evening letters and telegrams were read from former pastors and members of the congregation, expressing great regret that they were
unable to be present, and sending their congratulations, and very inter esting remarks were made by some of the older resident members by the pastors of the neighboring churches, closing with a song servic given by a remarkably well trained choir and a most charming bevy of boys and girls representing the primary department of the Sunday school, which was full of interest and very enjoyable. It was listened by a large audience. This closed the exercises attendant upon this sem centennial, which was in every respect a great success.
