PREFACE. ^THE preparation of a memorial ^^ volume in commemoration of the two hundredth anniversary of the organization of the Evangelical Luth- eran Congregation in New Hanover confronts us both with veneration and regret. We have to do with matters venerable and old, and find names of men who were prominent in church and state, whose an- cestral blood is still coursing through the veins of many who are at present active in shaping the history of the congregation, while the names of others have long since passed from men's minds and are found only upon the records of the past. It is to be sincerely regretted that the noble deeds of men and women of bygone days, have not been accurately and minutely recorded, so that the present generation might read the records of their piety and sincere loyalty to the faith and the church. It is true that fragments do ap- pear here and there, and from these the following compi- lation has been constructed. Errors, no doubt, appear — it would be a strange coincidence if this were not so. In vi Preface. recording so many names and dates, in reading the chi- rography of so many different handwritings, in the varied spelling of names during two centuries, with all the idio- syncrasies of men and the times, nothing short of a neces- sarily inaccurate account in its details must be expected. Nevertheless, to gather the fragmentary material still ex- tant, to resurrect from oblivion what may yet be found, but is fast passing into forgetfulness, and to multiply, by publication, the fragmentary records of the congregation, has been considered of sufficient import to justify the at- tempt; and, with utmost care, to present, in this form, whatever may be gathered and compiled. A great deal might be written with reasonable accu- racy concerning the more recent history of the life and development of the congregation, but since these things are fresh in the minds of men, or may be readily obtained, and are being interpreted in the light of present knowl- edge, the earlier history has been deemed of greater importance on account of its being so largely relegated to the past, and is not so readily accessible; therefore the greater stress is laid upon the earlier development of the congregation's life and history. In order to im- press these facts upon the mind, frequent repetitions occur, so that, by way of emphasis, many important facts and events are thereby indelibly stamped upon the mind of the reader. Repetitions also occur, because of the fact that the actions of the several church councils are recorded as they appear in their chronological order, so that some of the material which appears in the story of events, appears here again in its proper connection. Important also are the few brief data, which are found in the short biographical sketches, concerning the life and Preface. vn labors of the men who filled the pastoral office, so that something may be known of the men who ministered here in holy things. Not all of these are complimentary, yet history, in order to be of value, must not be one-sided, therefore as sunshine and shadows appear simultaneously, so these things are blended together to complete accurately the story of the past. The early history of this local congregation contains to a great degree the early history of the Lutheran Church in America. For, as the bud enfolds the flower, so the early beginnings contain, in embryo, the embodiment of future developments. It is for this reason that frequent references are made to other congregations and circum- stances, instead of being restricted to local conditions and events. May this first attempt to publish a continuous story of this congregation incite an enthusiastic desire for further investigation, so that future historians may have a more secure foundation to build upon, and relate the story of American Lutheranism to coming generations with greater accuracy and precision.

It is not an ambitious desire to add another volume to load down the already overburdened book-shelves, but to put on record, as far as they are known, the facts and incidents con- cerning the indomitable courage and Christian heroism of our Pennsylvania-German ancestors in this community and of this venerable congregation. Time has already relegated many things to the irrevocable past, which have transpired within the experiences of the congregation and its members, while a great many other matters have not been considered of sufficient interest or importance to record at all, or, if record has been made of them, such records have now been lost, which we sincerely lament. Another object in view is to preserve, by publication, the minutes of the congrega- tion and its church records, still extant, so that the original books and documents, now fast falling to pieces with age and by frequent handling, may be spared to generations 2 5 6 The New Hanover Lutheran Church. yet to come, while the facts and incidents recorded therein may nevertheless be on hand for use to those who may be interested in the congregation's life and history during its existence of over two centuries. Still another purpose is to encourage research into the records of the past so as to unearth many of the unknown circumstances in its historic life, and to prove beyond a doubt many of the conjectures, concerning its early existence; as well as to invite honest criticism so as to correct many of the errors contained in the following pages, concerning which no one is more painfully conscious than the compiler himself. The sources of information, which have been frequently consulted are mentioned in chapter first, and full ac- knowledgment of the same is here made. The value and importance of these books and documents in the preparation of the material for the succeeding pages is beyond the range of complete expression and full apprecia- tion. Some of the minutes of the congregation and of the church councils have been lost, as were also some of the official records of some of its pastors, which is a source of keen regret. Those still in existence, and in part herein published, prove some of the doubts and misapprehensions in the minds of earlier historians, and correct some of the errors which have become patent to the minds of some of them. In acknowledging the assistance received from many sources I cannot be sufficiently profuse; for without these this volume would have been impossible. A great deal of the research work, as well as of translating and tran- scribing the church records, is my own, yet I lay no claim to further originality. I acknowledge the valuable services of those who have Introduction. 7 in any way rendered assistance. In particular do I desire to put on record my appreciation of the services rendered by Irwin P. Knipe, Esq., of Norristown, for clearing up the original titles of the property, and to Mr. O. J. Bickel for returning the original documentary title for the tract of 49 acres of land presented by John Henry Sprogell to the congregation; to the researches of Julius F. Sachse, Litt.D., also for illustrations furnished by him for this history; also to Rev. John W. Early, without whose aid the completion of this work would have been delayed for some years to come. To all these my sincere thanks are due, and are herewith extended, as well as to all others who have been in any way instrumental in bringing this endeavor to a successful issue. In the hope that a deeper interest in the congregation's life and its interesting history may be awakened among its members and the community in general, this volume is sent forth on its mission of love and service. j.

Its Inhabitants. ir r is somewhat remarkable that so little is known concerning the lWhtM\lWj^^\ early history and struggles of this con- ' gregation. It would be expected that, as this is one of the three original united congregations, and the oldest of them all, very frequent reference would be made to this fact. Perhaps this may be explained, in part at least, by the fact that it was a little out of the way of the usual route of travel from Philadelphia westward. Perhaps if the editors of the Revised Edition of the " Halle Reports " had kept in mind the fact that whenever Henry Melchior Muhlenberg visited Oley and the church there, he generally came by this place, they would have had less trouble in locating the Oley church of the Lutherans. As to the absence of any explicit statements in regard to the time when this church was organized and when ser- 8 The New Hanover Lutheran Church. 9 vices were first held here, and in facf in reference to many historical matters about which we might desire informa- tion, it will be sufficient to say, that the reports to Halle were not intended primarily to give the particulars con- cerning the organization of churches which already existed. It should be sufficient for us to remember that the Halle Reports of Muhlenberg, Brunnholz and others were mostly simple transcripts or extracts from their official journals, setting forth the extent, nature and difficulties of their own labors in planting and caring for the churches in this western land. We could not, therefore, expect them to be taken up with matters outside of the line of their own activity, or of events having occurred prior to their time, except in the way of incidental references to them. Of all the pioneers Rev. John Casper Stoever appar- ently devoted more time and exercised greater care in the preparation and instalment of protocols or church records, than anyone else. Nearly all the churches he served, with the exception of this one, have them. They are generally well kept, except in this one respect, that they frequently omit the names and number of the communicants, also the times of communion. And may not this omission here possibly be accounted for by the fact that he may never have been the actual pastor, but only the assistant of Schulze, who ordained him? Soon after his ordination he left this section. It might even be questioned whether he was ordained here as generally believed. It is certain that Rev. J. Christian Schulze, who ordained him, per- formed baptisms at the Muddy Creek Church during the same month, if not on the very day of Stoever's ordination and marriage, viz., April 8, 1733. It will not be deemed necessary in every instance to give the specific authorities io The New Hanover Lutheran Church. for statements of acknowledged facts, whether derived from "Halle Reports," from Theodore Bean's "History of Montgomery County," Dotterer's " Perkiomen Re- gion," Kuhns' "German and Swiss Settlements," Mann's " Muhlenberg and His Times," Rev. Dr. Schmauk's ex- haustive history of "The Lutheran Church in Pennsyl- vania," 1 63 8-1 8 20, or other records; since it is readily understood that in a compilation of this character all avail- able sources known to the author will be readily and freely consulted, and its pages enriched by the facts and data already established in history. It is a striking fact that even well-informed people seem to have very indefinite ideas as to the location of this oldest of the German Lutheran congregations in America. Var- ious causes might be assigned for this. Possibly if the same name had always been applied to the place, it would be less difficult to locate. But, in looking at the names of places and sections, we find that it is not only called "New Hanover," but also "Swamp Churches," which, and not " Falckner Swamp," was the original name of the post office, and sometimes merely " The Swamp." If there were not three other places within a circuit of fifty miles, to each of which the same name, " Swamp," is applied, it would be far less difficult to describe the locality in such a way that every one might readily understand where it is found. First we have the Great Swamp in the extreme northwestern section of Bucks County. This formerly in- cluded the greater portion of Milford and Richland town- ships, the centre of the " Swamp " at that time being where Quakertown now stands. What is called Great Swamp at present lies wholly in Milford Township. The Long Swamp extends from the vicinity of Topton to the eastern line of Berks County, where the " Krotten The New Hanover Lutheran Church. n Creek " joins the southwest and the southeast branches of the Little Lehigh to form that stream. It has given name to one of the eastern townships of Berks as well as to the church in that section. It is from fifteen to twenty miles north by west from New Hanover. Almost thirty miles west, bearing slightly southward is " The Swamp " in Lancaster County. It covers a considerable part of Cocalico Township. Some of the branches of the Co- calico have their rise here. There are these three districts known as " The Swamp " besides Falckner Swamp. Whether New Hanover, or Falckner Swamp, was known by this name before the Great Swamp, about ten miles northeast of it, was so designated, we are unable to say. Theodore Bean in the " History of Montgomery County" describes the place thus r1 New Hanover Township is bounded on the northeast by Upper Hanover, south by Limerick, east by Frederick, northwest by Douglass and southwest by Pottsgrove. It is 6^4 miles long. Its greatest breadth 2>l/2 miles, containing 204 }4 square miles.2 It is the fourth in size in the county. The Swamp Creek flows nearly through the central part. It has several branches. The name is derived from Hanover, a capital and a kingdom in Ger- many. Many of the early Lutheran settlers were natives of this kingdom. This accounts largely for the name. Another name is Falckner Swamp, derived from Daniel Falckner, one of the agents, or attorneys, of the Frankfort Land Company. In a purchase made by Geo. McCall, 1735, it is said that Douglass and a part of Pottsgrove are bounded on the south by the " German's Tract of land, meaning at least all of the present New Hanover." The village of New Hanover, better known as Swamp Church, or Swamp Churches, is situated 16 miles from Norristown, and 1 History of Montgomery County," Cap. LXVL, p. 992. 'Evidently a printer's blunder. The dimensions given would be a fraction less than twenty-four square miles. 12 The New Hanover Lutheran Church. in 1832, Gordon in his " Gazeteer," says it contains two churches, a post office, a tannery, two taverns, two stores and eight dwell- ings. The post office was established before 1827, under the title of " Swamp Churches," which was changed a few years after to its present name, " New Hanover." It is quite an old settle- ment. Nicholas Scull mentions here in 1758, the Lutheran Dutch and the Dutch Church (Reformed) and Yelyer's mill, etc. Kuhns in his statements, which however are not always as well authenticated as they should be, speaks of it as if it were a part of the Germantown tract itself. But of this more anon, when we take up the matter of its settle- ment and its inhabitants. Dotterer describes it as follows: On the north are the South Mountains, on the south the Stone Hills, on the west the Fox Hills, and on the east the ridge rising from the left bank of Society Run. Swamp Creek, having as its tributaries Society Run, Spack Run, Minister's Creek (Pfarrer's Bach), Schlegel's Run and Goshenhoppen Run, flows in a wind- ing course through the valley. It will not be regarded as necessary to take up the matter of its early settlement and its first inhabitants sep- arately. These are so closely connected that it would be almost impossible to separate them entirely. The great difficulty is to fix dates definitely and distinctly. This will appear all the more clearly evident when it is remembered that Rev. Daniel Falckner, Sprogel or Sproul and others who controlled the 26,000 or more acres of the Frankfort Land Company, acted as if they were the owners of the tract. In fact, Sprogel seems to have had possession of it for a time, deeds being made out in his name. He seems to have become the actual owner of a large part, if not of all the vast tract of land in the vicinity of Falckner Swamp. It is, therefore, impossible to name an exact date as the The New Hanover Lutheran Church. 13 time of its settlement. There seems to have been a gen- eral development of all these sections about the same time. Throughout Oley, Manathanim, afterwards more com- monly called Molatton, or Morlatton, Falckner's Swamp, the Great Swamp, and even Long Swamp, the stream of immigration seems to have moved forward slowly but steadily from the last decade of the seventeenth century. From 1694, wnen tne " Frankfort Land Company sent its first load of emigrants to Germantown, to begin the development of that section, there has been a steady growth of population and developing of its resources," until it has become one of the richest and most prosperous portions of this magnificent commonwealth. From the statements of some of the writers it would al- most seem as if at first it had been regarded as a part of the Germantown settlement. To make the matter per- fectly clear it may be well to go back a little further and recount the history of the movements and doings of some of the others of those early settlers. Pastorius having conferred at Kriegsheim with Peter Schumacher, Gerhard Hendricks and other leaders of the intending settlers, " descended the Rhine to Crefeld, where he conferred with Thones Kunders, Dirck Herman, the Op den Graeff broth- ers, and others, who followed him across the ocean six weeks later." Having thus become the agent of the Frankfort Company, of the Kriegsheimers and the Cre- felders, he sailed June 6, 1683, and reached Philadelphia, August 16. Some two months later, thirteen men with their families, who had sailed on the Concord, reached Philadelphia. Coming late in the year they suffered great privation. But soon they found themselves in comfort. The communication of the news of their good fortune soon brought over others. But towards the close of the 14 The New Hanover Lutheran Church. century, 1694, a considerable addition was made to this colony. A band of forty pietists under the superinten- dence of Johann Kelpius settled on the banks of the Wis- sahickon. It is not necessary to dwell on the letters which Koester, D. Falckner, Kelpius, Schaeffer and others sent back to Germany to influence their friends to join them in this land of promise. The real leader of the party of forty who came over at one time, we are told, was Joh. Jac. Zimmerman, a minister, but he died at Rotterdam.1 It does not belong to our province to discuss the religious opinions of these people. We therefore simply add the statement that they are said to have been chiliasts of a pronounced type, separatists of different kinds, and some Lutherans and Reformed. Rev. Daniel Falckner, who made a special trip to Germany to interest people in the enterprise and to encourage settlers, a project in which he succeeded measurably at least, was one of them.2 We might well ask, would he not naturally put forth efforts to care for the spiritual welfare of his own people at once, instead of waiting from ten to twenty years before doing so ? It may be a matter of sufficient historical interest, al- though not directly connected with this sketch, to state in this connection, that the first protest against slavery re- corded in this country was made April 18, 1688, to the monthly meeting of the Quakers, by Pastorius, Gerhard Hendricks and the Op den Graeff brothers, as stated by both Kuhns and Pennypacker. While not highly educated, the mass of early German settlers of Pennsylvania were not ignorant and illiterate. The larger portion of them were undoubtedly able to read and write. In accordance with the universal custom in 1 Vide Sachse's German pietists of Provincial Pennsylvania. 2 Vide Curieuse Nachricht von Pennsylvania anno 1700, Sachse, 1905. The New Hanover Lutheran Church. 15 Protestant Germany education and religion were combined. At a very early day, Bibles, hymn books, books of devotion, and even school books, were printed in German at Phila- delphia. They were generally read and used. A prac- tical education in religious and secular affairs was thus secured, and a comparatively large number of the German pioneers possessed what might be called learning. We find traces of this even among unprofessional people. Johannes Kolb, a weaver of Germantown had a copy of Eras- mus in Latin, bought from his brother. A Schwenckfelder, named Schultz, had a well-thumbed copy of a Latin grammar. And the earliest settlers were under the direction of some of the most learned men of their time. The Frankfort Land Company consisted of a number of well-educated and highborn people. Pastorius is known to every one. Most of the pietists who came over in 1694 were university men, and they were scattered through the whole community. Zimmerman, who planned the colony, is said to have been " Ein grundgelehrter-astrologus." His successor, Johann Kelpius, was the son of a clergyman, and a doctor of philosophy of Tubingen; Henry Bern- hard Koster had studied at the gymnasium of Bremen and at Frankfort; Daniel Falckner was the son and grandson of a clergyman and was himself educated for the ministry; his brother had been a student at Halle, and Peter Miller, subsequently prior of Ephrata, was a very learned man. He is said to have translated the Declaration of Indepen- dence into seven different languages, and to have spoken " Latin as readily as we do our vernacular." So says Andreae. Thus we can readily perceive that almost from the day that William Penn, who had become known to the German 16 The New Hanover Lutheran Church. people by his residence among them, took possession of his province, a stream of German emigrants came over to settle in Pennsylvania. Although quite a number tarried in the vicinity of Philadelphia, a respectable proportion moved onward, to the Trappe, to New Hanover, to Mo- latton among the Swedes, who already occupied that sec- tion, and even to Oley with its hills, and then through it and Goshenhoppen, which then included New Hanover, through the gaps in the Lehigh hills up to the very foot of the Blue Mountains. This will account for the fact that quite a number of taxables, whose names show them to have been Germans, are found in New Hanover, in Oley and some even in Maxatawny, at the very beginning of the eighteenth century, and a few even before that time. It will also show why there are very frequent suggestions as to religious services held, of occasional gatherings for wor- ship, and of congregations without a formal organization. It was this state of things that opened the door to the tramp preacher and furnished him a field in which to carry on his work. These people were no heathen. They wanted their churches and pastors. When they could not get the best, or even the really good, they took what they could get. They simply did the best they could; others have done so since. Would not we pursue a similar course under similar circumstances? CHAPTER II. The Congregation. Its Early Organization. The Location of its Buildings. The Parsonage. The Title to the Property. The Church. M HERE the first service was held, who con- ducted that service, when the first steps toward the organiza- tion of a congregation were taken, and even the exact date of the erection of the first church building, are matters which will probably never be positively known. v Possibly, if the editors of the revised edi- tion of the "Halle Reports," when they began the republi- cation of that work thirty or more years ago had used the information within reach in this country, instead of looking to Halle only, or even mainly, some of these questions might perhaps have been settled. It certainly should have 17 18 The New Hanover Lutheran Church. been patent to every one, that Rev. H. M. Muhlenberg and his co-laborers in reporting to headquarters, would only de- scribe their own activities. If they did at any time refer to the men who had labored before them, it would be only incidentally. If at any time they spoke of the churches ex- isting before their arrival, it would be in the same casual way. This will become all the more evident if we bear in mind the fact that some of the settlements were com- menced fully half a century before Muhlenberg's arrival. These people had ministers, ordained men, among them. Under these circumstances they would not have remained altogether without the word and the sacraments volun- tarily. They would not have been satisfied without some arrangements by which their spiritual wants would be provided for. They did not do this elsewhere. They would not have done it here. First of all we will endeavor to give the substance of the statements of the " Halle Reports," meagre though they be, in regard to the early history of this congregation. Perhaps the fullest and most satisfactory statement there given is the report of Revs. Muhlenberg, Brunnholtz and Handschuh, the three oldest pastors, sent to Halle at the request of the Synod, July 9, 1754. In that report they give a brief resume of the church's history, as well as their own labors in it, from the very beginning up to the time when the report was sent. After setting forth that this statement is made at the request of the Swedish Provost, together with fourteen German pastors, they pass in review the whole history of the Lutheran Church, as well as that of the individual congregations in the Province of Pennsylvania. They tell us that " shortly before the beginning of this century [the eighteenth] a few Germans came across the sea and took The Congregation. 19 advantage of the religious liberty secured by Penn to all the inhabitants of the Province of Pennsylvania." They designate the time from 1688, to 1708 as the first period in which a few straggling immigrants arrived. Among these they refer to Henry Frey, whose wife is said to have been still living at that time, and who had arrived about 168c), They also speak of some North Germans who came over about the same time, some of whose descen- dants were still to be found in this vicinity, some being baptized by them. Others had adopted the habits and beliefs of the Quakers. They designate the period from 1708 to 1720, in which many separatists came along with the members of the Lu- theran Church and settled among them, as the second pe- riod. The influence of these separatists generally was most deplorable, especially as our own people were mostly without pastors and without churches. The third period is said to have been that from 1720 to 1730, when some of the Lutherans who came brought ministers along, Falckner, Hinckell and Stoever. That this must be Daniel Falckner is evident from the fact that the paragraph immediately following mentions Justus Falckner as one who was sent out by the Swedes. 1 730 to 1743, when Zinzendorf became so active in worrying our churches, is named as the fourth period. But these state- ments, as will at once be seen, take no account of the or- ganization of this congregation. In note 26, Vol. I., p. 36, i it is properly stated that " this is the oldest German Lutheran congregation within the bounds of the United States." But we fail to find any well founded authority there, or elsewhere, for the addi- tional statement that it is " difficult to say in what year the first settlements were made." This may be true. But 1 Halle Reports, Revised Edition. 20 The New Hanover Lutheran Church. when the editor adds : " it is highly improbable that it was before the year 1700," he has evidently lost his bearing and forgotten some of his own statements. For he soon adds that " Many of the first settlers came from New Hanover in which the first settlements inland in Pennsyl- vania are to be looked for." Elsewhere he tells us that in Oley settlements were commenced and steps taken looking towards the organization of a congregation even before 1700. And yet all these people either came from or through New Hanover. The statement made in a note, p. 441, 1 that Justus Falck- ner, ordained November 24, 1703, organized the congre- gation and that the place was named after him, is evidently a mistake, as he took up his residence in New York im- mediately after his ordination and never returned.2 The "Life and Times of Muhlenberg" throws very little additional light on the subject. In fact the only statement bearing on the early history of this congregation is a reference to Rev. Andreas Rudman, claiming that this man served the Swedish Lutherans in Philadelphia, 1697, and again after his return from New York until 17 18.^ But the " Journal of Andreas Sandel," published in the 1 " Halle Reports," Rev. Ed. Vol. I., p. 36, says in speaking of the first settlements in this section : " It is very highly probable before the year 1700 " that these began. And then again apparently speaking of Daniel Falckner, it asserts: "The congregation, indeed, had the indelible marks of an organization in Falckner's time." All this would indicate that the editor of that work was under the impression that Daniel Falckner preached and officiated as pastor of a congregation here before the year 1700. We can hardly see how anyone who has thoroughly investigated the matter can reach any other conclusion. (E.) 2 For the true history of the Falckner Brothers and the conditions of this section of Pennsylvania the reader is referred to the Bi-Centennial Memorial to Justus Falckner by Sachse, 1903, which contains Justus Falckner's account of the Province in 1701; also to Daniel Falckner's Curieuse Nachricht von Pennsylvania 1700. Reprint and translation by Julius F. Sachse, Philadelphia, 1905. The Congregation. 21 Pennsylvania Magazine, shows that he, Sandel, was the pastor there from 1702 until 17 14. He records but one trip to New Hanover in the year 1704. Although he does not say so in so many words, he apparently found an or- ganized congregation there. Several of his statements, although not referring to this matter, are so interesting that we give them here. He tells us that in the middle of January, 17 14, the weather was so mild that the plants were blossoming; also that the rye had already headed on the sixteenth of April. His quotation of the prices of produce is also interesting, as a contrast with those of the present day and other times. Wheat was 56 cents per bushel, rye 42, barley 46, oats 34 and apples were from 80 cents to $1.50 per barrel. Neither Kuhns nor Dotterer throws any additional light on the subject. In a footnote, p. 8, of " The Old Trappe Church " by Dr. Kretschman, we find the following: The first German Lutheran Church in the United States was built at New Hanover (The Swamp) prior to 17 19. Another log church was built there in 172 1. A third begun in 1741 and completed in 1747, was superseded in 1768 by the present fine stone church. While this gives no definite date for the first church it would apparently justify the conclusion that it was erected at the very beginning of the eighteenth century if not dur- ing the last days of the seventeenth.1 'Rev. Gerhard Henckel certainly became the pastor in 1716 or 1717. Now the existence of a church building is distinctly' referred to in 1719. That certainly is not the one erected in 1721. There must, therefore, have been a church at New Hanover before this one. It would be altogether unusual that even a log church should last only two to four years. Be- side all this, the average life of the church buildings here was twenty years or even more. From 1747 to 1767, from 1721 to 1741, only com- pleted 1747. This would give 1700 or 1701 or even possibly 1695 for the organization of the congregation and the erection of the first church. 22 The New Hanover Lutheran Church. Dr. Sachse, " German Pietists," p. 339, says: The earliest direct evidence of this congregation's [existence] known to the writer, is a Swedish account of a visit made to Manatawny by Pastor Sandel in company with Daniel Falckner in the autumn of 1 704, wherein it is stated that the former as- sisted Falckner at the church services on Sunday, October 15. One of the first things he did in the new settlement was to organ- ize a congregation, build a church and hold services according to the Lutheran ritual. " The Manatawny tract, title to the Frank- fort Company passed October 25, 1 701, is supposed to have been settled by Germans, as early as 1700, emigrants who came over with Daniel Falckner upon his return." But perhaps the most satisfactory statement bearing on this entire subject is that given by Dr. Theo. E. Schmauk in his " History of the Lutheran Church in Pennsylvania," as found in the Proceedings of the Pennsylvania- German Society, Vol. XL, especially Chap. IV., to which the reader is referred. The brief space allotted to the history of an individual congregation will not permit any very extensive quotations. But summing up all the state- ments of Dr. Schmauk, as well as the data within possible reach, we feel satisfied that it would be safely within the limits of the facts of the case and the absolute truth to say that there was some sort of organization of a Lutheran congregation, and that Lutheran services were held at New Hanover prior to the year 1700. The old tradition that Rev. Justus Falckner, who was ordained by the Swedes in the fall of 1703 (November 24) to enable him to accept a call to New York, was the founder of this congregation is shown to be a mistake by the fact that in less than two weeks after that ordination, he settled in New York, took charge of a congregation The Congregation. 23 there, and continued to serve the same until his death. And yet the whole claim that this congregation was or- ganized in 1703 seems to rest on that tradition.1 We were always told that Falckner Swamp was so named, " because he was its first pastor and the organizer of the congregation." We know now that neither is the case. He left the place as soon as he was ordained, and there- fore could be neither the organizer nor the first pastor. But his brother Daniel Falckner, who was an ordained minister when he arrived in 1694, or upon his return, 1699, did organize the first settlers into a congregation and continued to serve it until he left this section and settled in New Jersey as pastor of congregations there. There seems to be but little doubt that Daniel Falckner held services here pretty regularly before his trip to Eu- rope to interest the people of the Fatherland in their brethren in the faith in this country. While his trip un- doubtedly, in a great measure, was intended to advance the material interests of the Frankfort Land Company, by inducing immigrants to come to this country, so that the company might dispose of its land, it seems equally clear that a secondary and very important purpose was to in- duce some of those of his own faith to occupy the land, so that those who were already here might have desirable Christian neighbors.2 There is another very important fact which should likewise be kept clearly in view. Dr. Schmauk (p. 64) 1 The fact that Justus Falckner may possibly have preached as a theological student at New Hanover, prior to his ordination, does not alter the fact that his ordination has no connection whatever with the organization of the congregation. Whether organized by him or his older brother Daniel in 1695 or 1700 or 1703, that had nothing to do with his ordination on which the old accepted story rests. 2 Cf. Curieuse Nachricht von Pennsylvania 1700, translation and re- print, Sachse, 1905. 24 The New Hanover Lutheran Church. tells us : " It must not be overlooked, that a considerable portion of the original Swedish colony of 1638, was in reality German." Their governor, Printz, was a German, and no less than fifty-four German families came with him. The Halle Reports also tell us that a number of Germans had gone as far inland as Oley sometime before 1700. Apparently scattered German Lutheran settlers could be found in all the section westward from Philadelphia to the Schuylkill. Some of these settlements seem to have been quite large, sufficiently so to become the nuclei of con- gregations,1 as was evidently the case here, and seems to have been in Oley. Dr. Sachse even seems to be of the opinion (vide p. 79) (and there seems to be abundant reason for that opinion) , that a lately discovered letter of Pastorius, dated March 7, 1684, was published directly " in the interest of the Frank- fort Land Company for the purpose of influencing Ger- man emigration (directing it) to Pennsylvania." He tells us that, " the first German Lutheran services in the Prov- ince [Pennsylvania] were held in June, 1694, by a band of forty immigrants, six of whom are said to have been Lutheran theological students." " The chaplain of the company continued these services regularly." English ser- vices were commenced at the same time. " These Ger- man enthusiasts who were mystics, chiliasts and who knows what not, were adherents of the Augsburg Confession." These services were conducted by Rev. Heinrich Bern- hard Koester, who was evidently the first man to hold German and English Lutheran services in Pennsylvania. Undoubtedly he was the most prominent Lutheran char- acter in the Province, in his day. Next in rank and posi- 1 Vide, A Brief History of the Colony of New Sweden, translation in Proceedings of Pennsylvania-German Society, Vol. VIII. The Congregation. 25 tion was Daniel Falckner. He ventured on a trip to Germany towards the close of 1698, and succeeded in awakening a deeper interest in the spiritual condition of the Germans in Pennsylvania. His visit undoubtedly stimulated immigration into this country. Upon his return he became the attorney of the Frank- fort Land Company. He now devoted himself to the development of " The Manatawny tract of 22,377 acres, and founded the earliest Lutheran congregation in the state at New Hanover." In speaking of this matter Dr. Schmauk divides the life of Daniel Falckner into two parts or periods: The first as the attorney and head of the Frankfort Land Company; the second " when he de- voted himself entirely to the pastorate first at Falckner Swamp, and then when he served congregations at Rar- itan, New Jersey." It therefore seems clear that the statements made and accepted by nearly all of these writers, especially Drs. Schmauk and Sachse, would not only justify the inference, but they would prove that some of the Germans, not a few but quite a number, kept moving beyond the limits of Ger- mantown, to Goshenhoppen including New Hanover, and even to Oley beyond, between 1694 and 1700. This seems not only the natural, but the inevitable conclusion, if the settlers here pursued the same course they did elsewhere. In many instances, and if we mistake not, in the large majority of instances, the settlement of a tract preceded the actual transfer of title. This was not con- fined to tracts selected for church and school purposes, but it was also a very common thing in taking up farm lands as well. While not disputing or calling into question the state- ment of Dr. Schmauk that, " on the return trip to Penn- 26 The New Hanover Lutheran Church. sylvania in 1700 Daniel Falckner is supposed to have brought over the Germans who located in the Swamp, and constituted the first permanent Lutheran congregation, in general, we are inclined to think that it falls short of the actual facts of the case. We are strongly inclined to believe that some of the German Lutherans who had come over, a few at a time from 1694 to 1700, and even some of those who had come fifty years before with the Swedes, had gradually advanced inland, a few stopping in the vi- cinity of New Hanover now and then, until a goodly num- ber had gathered there, and that during these latter years Daniel Falckner, known to them as an ordained minister, preached to them and occasionally administered the Lord's Supper. Whether he took further formal steps to gather them into an organized congregation during this earlier period, it is impossible to say. We do know, however, that the process of bringing together a congregation was not as formal and methodical in those days as it is expected to be now. In many of those early congregations we find references to elders and deacons in office, without a single reference to the time of their election, or the slightest reference to a constitution, or the adoption of the same. Dr. Schmauk also informs us that, " it is quite possible that some Germans had settled here before 1700." He also refers to indelible traces of an organization in Daniel Falckner's time ; and adds : " when a church was built is not known." Possibly, if we will bear in mind the fact that William Penn sold 25,000 acres of land to the Frankfort Land Company in November, 1686; that on February 3, 1689, he confirmed to Francis Daniel Pastorius, as their attorney 2,675 acres> and that the warrant for the remain- ing 22,377 acres was issued October 13, 1701, it will readily appear that it is no improper assumption of facts, The Congregation. 27 when we say that it is likely that many settlers occupied portions of the land years before the warrant was issued. This tract embraces all of New Hanover Township and parts of those adjoining. We think these statements of Dr. Schmauk and others should convince every one, not only that this is the oldest German Lutheran church and congregation in America, but it should serve to satisfy all of the probability that services were held, and steps were taken to secure the organization of a congregation and the erection of a church between 1694 and 1700, if not even before that time. It certainly would be pertinent to ask, what became of the Germans who came with the Swedes possibly fifty years before? Where did they settle? Certainly they did not all remain on the banks of the Delaware. Summing up the whole matter, therefore, we think there would be clear warrant for the statement that services were held with more or less regularity from about 1694 to 1700, by which time a congregation had been gathered. That this congregation then erected a small church which was completed by 1703, possibly sev- eral years before that time. This primitive church then remained in use until 172 1, when it was replaced by a more commodious one. Then in 1747 a third building took the place of this one. This again served the con- gregation's purposes until the present substantial stone structure, which has answered its purpose one hundred and forty years, took its place. About the time and circumstances connected with the erection of the different school houses it will not be neces- sary to say much. But these people seem to have pur- sued the course usual with our German ancestors. As soon as they were assured of having a church, they also took steps to provide a school house and to establish a 28 The New Hanover Lutheran Church. school, and it is not an unjustifiable inference to conclude that this was the course they pursued. It will not be possible to give a description of the earliest church buildings. In fact very little is known concerning the details connected with their erection. Enough is known, however, to make it almost absolutely certain that the con- gregation before 17 17 owned a log building which had in all probability been erected, some time between 1695 and 1703, on land the congregation had preempted at a very early day. But its title to the land was only clearly estab- lished many years later. A copy of the deed will be given at the proper place. It will not be possible and it should not be regarded necessary to describe the precise spot on which each of these churches and school houses stood. But it may safely be said that, in all probability, they stood on, or very near, the spot on which the present church, and the build- ing immediately opposite, now stand.1 No clear or satis- factory account of the erection of the first church or school house can be given. No records are available. All is left to inferences drawn from other known facts. Very little is known about the details of the history except the well-known fact that a second church took the place of first one in 1721. Concerning the third edifice it is known that work on it was begun in 1741. Muhlenberg states that he found an unfinished church here when he came. It was completed and dedicated in 1747. This being prior to the organiza- tion of the synod, we cannot expect information in the 1 According to the statement made by Rev. H. M. Muhlenberg in con- nection with the dedication of the present church, it would almost seem as if the school-house had been located at, or close by, the public road leading eastward through the village. He locates it about two stone throws from the parsonage. Was it at Brendlinger's corner? The Congregation. 29 records of that body. The fourth church, which still stands, was commenced in 1767. It was finished and dedi- cated in 1768. This was considered of sufficient impor- tance to have the synod to meet at New Hanover and to take part in the festivities as an organization (vide p. 87 et seq. of " Documentary History ") . While it will not be necessary to repeat all the details as they are there given, the citing of a few principal items may furnish an insight into the customs, habits and spirit of the times, such as we may not readily find elsewhere. From the letter of invitation to synod, we quote the fol- lowing: Honorable President and Members of the Ministerium Reveren- dum of the United Evangelical Lutheran Congregations in Pennsylvania, etc.: The building of a new church, begun by the congregation at New Hanover, in the name and in reliance upon the assistance of Him who can do more than we ask and understand, has, through the strength of the Omnipotent, been accomplished with such de- sired progress that we will soon see its completion. Halle- lujah. . . . For the accomplishing of so exceedingly important a purpose, we extend our most obedient request to the Reverend Ministerium, to consecrate our newly built church to the service of Immanuel by prayer, intercession and thanksgiving, and to bring into it, by the proclamation of the saving doctrine of Jesus Christ, glowing coal to enkindle a fire that may burn with fervor and blessed de- votion, in our hearts, as well as in the hearts of our posterity." The writer then suggests the XXIII Sunday after Trinity, No- vember 6, as the proper time. With readiness and the offering of all possible love, we, who sign this, remain, Honorable Praeses and Members of the Rev- erend Ministerium. Your most obedient, Lewis Voigt.

Two days later Rev. Voigt sent an additional personal request to Senior Muhlenberg. Near ten o'clock a. m., November 6, a large number of people from near and from far had gathered about the new church. It was a very fine day. The ministers, Revs. H. M. Muhlenberg, J. N. Kurtz, Joh. Casp. Stoever, J. W. Kurtz, H. Schaum, Krug, Voigt, Jung, Buskerk and Messrs. Kuhn and Streit, students with the delegates from Philadelphia, Germantown, Lancaster, Reading, Tulpehocken, Richmond, Weidenthal, Earltown, Warwick, Macunschy, Upper Milford, Saccum, Jordan, Heidelberg, Pikestown, etc., " went in procession from the parsonage to the school house, a distance of about two stone throws." Here the procession, preceded by one of the builders and the schoolmaster with the key, followed by four deacons with the sacred vessels, re-formed. The preachers, the elders of the Hanover and Providence con- gregations and the delegates of the congregations above named went from the school house to the church. Arrived there the preachers stepped within the altar railing and the delegates stood in a semi-circle outside. Rev. Muhlen- berg opened the service with the One-hundredth psalm. The choir sang " Komm heiliger Geist, Herre Gott," etc. Then each of the eleven ordained ministers gave a motto — for the house itself, for the ministerial office, for holy baptism, for the Lord's Supper, Kinderlehre, etc. Then the pastor (Voigt) read the declaration. The congrega- tion then sang " Sey Lob und Ehr dem Hoechsten Gut." The Congregation. 31 Rev. Krug baptized children and Senior Muhlenberg preached the dedicatory sermon on 1 Kings ix, 3. Services were finished at one o'clock.1 At two p. m., there was an- other service at which Rev. Kurtz, Sr., preached. The collection taken at the doors amounted to nearly £60, about $160. On Monday the synod proceeded to the transac- tion of business. It is also evident that some time before this event oc- curred the congregation had already erected its second school house. In the Halle Reports, p. 79, old ed., p. 152, Vol. I., new ed., it is stated: " In New Hanover the pres- ent but not yet completed church building has now been entirely finished and some farming land purchased for the church and school." It will be noticed that this state- ment does not refer to the original Sprogel tract on which the church was erected, but to the tract bought for them through Muhlenberg on which the parsonage was located. All this was done by means of the congregation's share of the benevolent contributions received from England and Germany, together with the amounts which they them- selves contributed of their own means. This shows that by 1749 this congregation had already secured its second school house. The statements already made show that these people, although comparatively poor, and not able to pay much in the way of salary toward the support of their pastor, yet managed to secure an additional tract for his resi- dence. It is probably owing to this fact that although Trappe and New Hanover are not very far apart, they soon had a pastor resident at each point. This latter tract, the parsonage tract, remained in their possession until about thirty years ago, when the farm was 1 The two students, Streit and Keuhn, also delivered English addresses. 34 The New Hanover Lutheran Church.

The second deed recites the fact that Henry Muhlen- berg bought forty-nine acres of land from Thomas Pres- ton for a consideration of forty pounds ($106.66 2/3). The witnesses to this document are John Campbell and Anna Sherrard. The date is October 20, 1749 about two years and one-half after the above was drawn up. Among other things it is stated that it is an indenture containing a contract between Thomas Preston, of Phila- delphia, and Rev. Henry Muhlenberg.

The time for payment having expired without payment being made, it reverted. Upon the death of the elder Soams it came into possession of his only son John, who died a short time thereafter intestate and a bachelor. It then became lawfully vested in his sisters, Catharine Yaldwyn and Mary Johns, both widows, the only surviving children of Henry Soams, deceased. Mrs. Yaldwyn administered, and the 7,500 acres were sold and deeded to Thomas Preston, October 8, 1748- Then he sold 49 acres of this tract to Rev. H. Muhlenberg. It will not be necessary to give the bounds and courses of this land. The transfer was made November 22, 1749, and record made May 10, 175 1. There are other indentures and contracts besides this for 21 acres and 142 perches, also for 5 acres and 40 perches. It is distinctly stated in connection with these purchases that the land was bought for the "special use, benefit and behoof of the minister of the New Church of Hanover," and again it is specified that it is for the minister now in service for said congregation. It is also stated that this land is conveyed to Fredr. Michael Ziegenhagen and Gotthilf Aug. Francke, for the use of the pastors and school teachers of this congregation. Apparently the two smaller tracts were located between the tract on which the church was erected and that on which the parsonage was located. Yet while the description indicates that these smaller tracts were between the two larger ones, and that the school house was built on one of them, there is no clear proof at hand that such is the case. CHAPTER III. The United Congregations. Trappe, Falckner Swamp, Philadelphia and then Germantown. United into a Synod. As ♦ITT would make this history en- tirely too lengthy to enter into a detailed account of the ori- gin, organization and early strug- gles of the four congregations, three of which united in the call originally extended to Rev. H. M. Muhlenberg. The fourth, seeing the advantages of combining in the work of the church, soon joined them. But it may not be amiss to pre- sent a short resume of some of the leading facts connected with the history of each up to the time when the three first named forwarded their earnest appeal to the authorities at Halle to send them a capable and faithful pastor. The history of the church at the Trappe has been made pretty familiar. To get hold of some of the main facts it is only necessary 38 NEW HANOVER LUTHERAN CHURCH. V fig] wSsk i ' 'rrSlBiiA 'i» aw ECCLESIASTICAL SEAL OF THE UNITED CONGREGATIONS OF PHILADELPHIA, PROVIDENCE AND NEW HANOVER. USED BY MUHLENBERG. The United Congregation. 39 to look carefully at the full and detailed history presented by Rev. Kretschman in " The Old Trappe Church." Dot- terer's " Perkiomen Region " also gives very valuable in- formation in regard to prominent men who have lived there; H. M. Muhlenberg, the patriarch of the Lutheran church in America, his two sons, Frederic August and Henry Ernst, the one eminent as a statesman, and the other as a scientist: Governor Francis R. Shunk, Mr. Fry, and others prominent in the history of our country. But about the church itself he gives little information. In the Halle Reports there is a pretty full sketch of New Providence (Trappe) ; but it lacks the one great es- sential of accurate local history, viz., exact dates, positive facts and clear accounts of the doings of the men who made its history. As we are not writing the history of the church at New Providence it will not be necessary to go back to its origi- nal name, Landaw or Landau, or to that by which it was subsequently known, the Trap, Treppe, or Trappe, which- ever it may have been. The history of this congregation can, however, be traced back prior to 1730. According to the earliest recorded baptisms by Rev. John Casper Stoever, the indications are that services were held as often and as regularly as possible prior to that time. And while there may not have been what we in our day would call a regularly organized congregation, undoubtedly the men who preached and occasionally administered the sacra- ments would have been apt to assert that it was a congre- gation. The second congregation to join in this pact was that of New Hanover. It will therefore be unnecessary at this point to go into further details as to its origin and progress until an appeal for a pastor was sent to Halle. 4-0 The New Hanover Lutheran Church. The third congregation to join in this movement to se- cure an ordained pastor to take permanent charge of their interests was the German Lutheran congregation at Phila- delphia. The Halle Reports say " that Jacob Fabricius preached to the German Lutherans here [Philadelphia] from 1688-91. But they [the Lutherans] remained without a church and without an organization; and this state of things continued for decades." They were after- wards served by John Christian Schulze, succeeded by Rev. John Casper Stoever, who instituted church records, 1733. But we see from the statements of Dr. Schmauk ( Proceed- ings of the Pennsylvania-German Society, Vol. XL, pp. 79 et seq., 1900) that the first services, German and English, were held by Rev. Henry Bernhard Koester at German- town in 1694, upon the day of the arrival of that colony. He also preached at Philadelphia in both languages. His efforts there resulted in the organization of Christ Episco- pal Church. He seems not to have had equal success in bringing about an organization of the German Lutherans before his return to Germany. This difference was no doubt in great part owing to the fact that the established church of England sent over a man to look after their interests, while there seems to have been no one to look after the spiritual interest of the Germans after Koester had left to return to his native land, where he lived many years afterwards. But even then he showed that he had not forgotten his Lutheran confession and his Lutheran principles. These three congregations united in a joint call and in an earnest appeal to the church authorities in Europe to send them an ordained pastor to break to them the bread of life. Nearly ten years before, in 1733, these same con- gregations had sent a most earnest appeal to Germany by The United Congregation. 41 the hands of Rev. John Christian Schulze, who was then their pastor, and had acted in that capacity for about a year. With two of their number, Daniel Weissiger and Joh. Daniel Schoner, he was sent to England, Holland and Germany, to collect funds to build churches and school- houses, as well as to provide means of support for pas- tors and teachers laboring among them. In this first appeal they say that several thousand Germans, mostly poor peo- ple, already occupied this territory, and without the sup- port they seek, there is great danger that their people will be scattered among the various sects and that many will return to heathenism. This appeal was signed by six of their prominent men: Johann Becker, Hans George Her- ger, Adam Herrman, George Hollebach, Joh. Nicol. Crossman, Jacob Schrack. Unfortunately the result of this first appeal was not very encouraging. Schulze himself had not maintained his rep- utation for honesty, and was imprisoned for alleged misap- propriation of moneys collected. The other men returned but with very limited amounts. Altogether the congrega- tions seem to have profited very little pecuniarily and they remained without pastoral care for a decade more. Not- withstanding this events were progressing. During the summer of 1734 Daniel Weissiger presented the request of the congregations at Philadelphia, New Hanover and Providence to Rev. Francke at Halle, setting forth that they were exceedingly anxious to obtain a respectable pas- tor, capable of ministering to them faithfully and success- fully. Francke showed a disposition to accede to their request; but he insisted that they must pledge themselves to accept the minister sent to them, pay his travelling ex- penses, provide for his support, and if need be provide for his return. 42 The New Hanover Lutheran Church. Francke then consulted with Dr. Ziegenhagen, the Court preacher at London, to whom these men had already appealed. In reply to the requirements of Dr. Francke and others, these people pointed to the fact that conditions here were such as to make it impossible for them to accede to them. They also declared that the assurances already given involved a degree of self-denial even greater than that which was expected of the minister to be sent to them. They did not mean to allow a pastor to suffer, but they did expect him to adapt himself to the local conditions. They now present a counter proposal. They suggest that the costs of passage and a year's support be taken from the col- lections, the balance to be devoted to building of churches and schools, and besides to buy land on which the pastor, with the addition of the "accidentia," might secure his support. To this Francke replied, that a young and inex- perienced man could not be depended upon, and a man of any standing could hardly be persuaded to accept a position under these conditions. He gave them no encouragement. Ziegenhagen seemed to have been of the same mind. In their reply the deacons certainly seem to have the better of the argument, and the whole transaction and correspon- dence reveal an amazing similarity to many experiences in all periods of the church, when those in positions of influ- ence and of high authority in the church seemingly show greater regard for their own plans of prudent management than for the Macedonian cry " come over and help us." This becomes all the more remarkable when the men ap- pealed to were considered as occupying the forefront and highest rank and position in missionary effort, while the call came from their own brethren in the faith who had left home and friends and all for the sake of conscience and The United Congregation. 43 of Christ. But these experiences are repeated continually in the history of the world, even in our own day. In the meanwhile, however, this urgent call had been presented to Rev. H. Muhlenberg. The congregations had given their assent to the choice. He was therefore designated for this mission on the conditions : ( i ) That it be for three years, with privilege to return at their ex- piration; (2) in case of return, expenses to be paid both ways; (3) the traveling expenses, as well as salary, to be paid from contributions in the hands of Dr. Ziegenhagen; (4) the formal call, with conditions mentioned, he was to receive from him (Ziegenhagen), as he held the call and commission of the congregations. It will not be necessary to describe the departure and farewell address of Muhlenberg when about to go away from home and friends, whom he was never again to meet in this world. One recorded remark of his aged mother when she heard that he was to depart for far-off America will serve to show how this act of his was regarded. When she heard that he was going to those distant parts, she is said to have remarked dejectedly, that " she would rather follow him to his grave, than afterwards to hear that he had been torn to pieces by the savages." We will not follow him on his journey of months across the tempest-tossed Atlantic to Savannah, thence to Phila- delphia, after a delay of more than a month. Suffice it to say that on Thursday, November 25, he reached the end of his journey. He set out the same day for New Han- over. On Saturday he met the officers of the congrega- tion, but he found the field actually already occupied, and the congregation itself divided. Some were utterly indif- ferent and did not care for the church at all. Zinzendorf had gained some adherents, a certain N. Schmidt had been 44 The New Hanover Lutheran Church. accepted as the pastor by the congregation, and it was said the Philadelphians, Germantowners and those at Provi- dence had committed themselves to the notorious Valentine Kraft. This certainly was not a very promising outlook for a man who had travelled three or four thousand miles to take charge of a neglected field. It is not made quite clear whether Germantown came in immediately, as soon as the people saw that they had now found a real pastor, but certain it is that no long time elapsed until that congregation joined the other three and they became four united congregations. According to Rev. Muhlenberg's diary, only three or four months had elapsed before the Germantown congregation united with the others. As early as 1732 the three congregations, New Han- over, Philadelphia and New Providence, had combined, under the name of united congregations, in sending Rev. John Christian Schulze to Germany to secure aid for them. On the first Sunday after his arrival in Pennsylvania, Rev. Muhlenberg preached his introductory sermon at New Hanover on 2 Cor. v, 19-20. It will not be neces- sary to present a detailed account of all the proposals and offers, of discussions and debates about the proper mode of procedure during these first days. The call as well as the instructions from Dr. Ziegenhagen had been read to the congregation, and Rev. Muhlenberg had re- turned to Philadelphia. He did not come back to the Swamp Church until December 20. He remained over Christmas and celebrated the Lord's Supper for the first time with his people, there being over one hundred com- municants. That evening the elders and deacons of the New Hanover congregation, as well as those of New Providence, entered into a formal agreement with him, The United Congregation. 45 declaring that with thankful hearts they accepted Rev. H. M. Muhlenberg as a lawfully ordained minister of the Gos- pel, sent upon their own earnest appeal by Rev. Fr. Ziegen- hagen. They also promised to provide the necessary liv- ing, to assist and sustain him in his office. This agreement was signed — deacons and elders of New Hanover, Christo- pher Withman, Matthias Ringer, Peter Conrad, Valentine Geiger, Jacob Aister, Martin Keblinger, George Jiirger; deacons and elders of Providence : John Nicol. Groessman, Frederic Marsteller, John George Benter, Nicolaus Bittel, Geo. Groessman, Jacob Miiller, John Geo. Groessman, the saddler. They also pledged themselves that they would not per- mit any man who could not show a regular call according to Article XIV of the Augsburg Confession publicly to preach or to administer the sacraments in their congrega- tion. Rev. Muhlenberg at once entered zealously upon his work, visiting New Hanover every four weeks. He im- mediately took up the work of instructing the young, and taught a class of young men ranging from seventeen to twenty years their letters. He also found it necessary to give instruction in English and in music. Although there was some division of sentiment, he soon secured har- mony among them and induced them to begin the erection of a school house the following spring. It may also be worthy of note that the first catechumen whom Rev. Muh- lenberg confirmed at New Hanover, had received her in- struction in English. If space permitted it would be highly interesting to re- count some of Rev. H. M. Muhlenberg's experiences upon his arrival, especially with regard to the man Schmidt, who was evidently an impostor and who at first proposed 46 The New Hanover Lutheran Church. to establish a rival congregation at New Hanover, but who seems to have conducted himself in a more dignified and honorable manner than either Valentine Kraft or Count Zinzendorf . Neither of the latter two seems to have con- sidered it necessary to pay any regard whatever to the ordi- nary rules of courtesy, and much less to those of order or of honesty. Zinzendorf in accepting a "Record" and a communion cup filched from a Lutheran congregation by a turncoat officer, and by appropriating the same for the use of his adherents, showed that he utterly forgot or ig- nored all honesty. What the motives or purposes of these men may have been, we shall not stop to inquire. That Rev. Muhlenberg had a keen appreciation of humor, is manifested in his reply to the rather uncalled- for but caustic question of Governor Thomas, upon his (M.'s) first introduction to that worthy dignitary: " What is the reason that the Germans are so given to the habit of beating their wives?" " Presumably the reason is this: the Germans have been a warlike people from the most remote period, but being at present under a quaker gov- ernment, which does not look favorably upon martial ar- rangements, they do not want to lose their hereditary bravery. They therefore seek to preserve it until needed by these private exercises." With this, he tells us, the political discussion was ended. He then describes the sad condition of the community — the lack of instruction, the ignorance of the young, the spiritual destitution and the moral degradation. Even after three months spent in the field Rev. Muhlenberg had already become fully aware that one man could not pos- sibly do the work required. He therefore sent urgent appeals to Halle. Brunnholz, Handschuh, Kurtz and J. The United Congregation. 47 H. Schaum, ere long, were sent to aid him. Soon others followed. It will be too far reaching for our present purpose to enter upon the detailed description of the labors and ac- tivities during the six years following. Within three or four months the three united congregations had become four. Other congregations applied for pastors to preach the word and to bring together their scattered members. One after the other, they placed themselves under the di- rection of Rev. Muhlenberg and those designated by him until two to three dozen congregations were thus united and seemed to recognize no other church authority than that of Muhlenberg and his co-laborers. All this indi- cated that the time was here to enter into more formal relations with one another — that the time was ripe for the organization of a synod. This step was now taken. Not much space need be given to the consideration of the for- mation of a synod by the pastors of these united congre- gations. Only six years had elapsed since Rev. H. M. Muhlenberg had landed at Philadelphia. The three stipulated years during which he might return to his native land had long since passed; it had become clearly evident to him as well as to those who had sent him, that unless they meant to abandon every prospect of building up the church in this western land, he must remain, and instead of recalling him they must send others to aid him in his work. Since his arrival each year had seen more than the original number added to the united congregations. And yet there were still others asking to be received and to be furnished with ministers under the reasonable guaranty given by their union, that they would receive men of char- acter who could be depended upon to represent the church 48 The New Hanover Lutheran Church. well and favorably, and that they would labor faithfully for its upbuilding. We have thus far never seen an exact list of the congre- gations cooperating with Muhlenberg and the several pas- tors called by them at the time of the organization of the synod, but in a report sent to Halle by Muhlenberg, Brunn- holz and Handschuh, such a list is furnished. Being their joint work it can therefore be accepted as official and there- fore correct. They state that these congregations have been supplied by them with the word and the sacraments, viz. : Philadelphia, Cohenzi, Germantown, New Provi- dence, Pikestown, New Hanover, New Goschenhoppen, Indianfield, Tulpehocken, Nordkiel, Yorktown beyond the Susquehanna, Upper Milford, Saccon, Neshamony, Fork, Tohek, Readingtown (Raritan) in Jersey, Raritan Hills (Gebirge), New York, Hackensack — twenty given by name. But undoubtedly some were overlooked or else in- cluded in general terms. For without question Lancaster, Strasburg, Earlingtown (New Holland) Heidelberg (St. Daniel's), probably Heidelberg (Schaefferstown) , Mose- lem, Rockland, Oley Hills, and possibly Albany, New York, and some others were served by pastors belonging to synod. Reading, Berks Co., may not yet have been ad- mitted. At this time apparently thirty or more congrega- tions stood together. Bringing these united congregations into one ecclesias- tical organization, a synod, was the most important and far-reaching step yet taken. It gave cohesion to the hith- erto disjointed elements, and enabled the pastors, as well as their congregations, to pursue one common course along one common line of action. Although it seems to have differed in many respects from synods of today, its organization was a long stride The United Congregation. 49 forward. Up to this time, with the exception of the three congregations uniting in the call to Muhlenberg, every con- gregation had acted for itself. It was in this disjointed condition, every one doing as to him seemed best, that the greatest danger lay. It was the source of greatest diffi- culty in gathering the members of the Lutheran Church into congregations. Very frequently congregations brought together under the insidious influences of so-called inde- pendency, when gathered, were not Lutheran, but a nonde- script combination of beliefs and unbeliefs. It was this spirit and tendency which gave Kraft, Andrea and others of that stripe their foothold, and furnished Zinzendorf the means for plaguing the church. At first the synod actually was nothing but an association of ministers, laboring together unitedly to secure the best interests of the church. The lay representatives of the congregations were really not members of it. They only came to the place of meeting to present the needs and de- sires of their congregations to and through some pastor, generally their own, and upon occasion being courteously invited to do so, to lay before the organization the re- quests and desires of the congregation represented by them. It was not until 1794, forty-six years after the first or- ganization and six years after the death of its founder, that the lay representatives of the congregations were ac- corded a voice and a vote upon the floor of the body. The wisdom, or unwisdom, of the step we need not discuss; suffice it to say that every one can readily see that it was after a representative government had been fully estab- lished in this country, and that it was plainly an effort to adapt the management of the affairs of the church to the altered condition of affairs — a free church in a free country. CHAPTER IV. The Pastors Who Have Served This Church. Those before Muhlenberg. Muhlenberg and His Helpers. Muhlenberg's Successors. TITJ1 E do not deem it necessary to say much about the tradition that a minister had been ordained by the Swedes for these people in 1703. For if it is sup- posed to apply to the ordination of Justus Falckner, who was so ordained at Wicaco, it is clearly a mistake. He left this vicinity immediately after his ordination, removing to New York and preaching his first sermon as pas- tor there on the Sunday there- after. From that field he never came back to New Hanover. If it is supposed to refer to Daniel Falckner it is just as far off the mark. He was an ordained minister before that time. Dr. Schmauk sug- gests that it might be intended for his installation. While there may be no clear proof of that, it would apparently be the only solution consistent with the facts. 50 Pastors who have Served this Church. 51 Why he devoted himself to secular pursuits, either in connection with his duties as a minister or to the utter neglect of the same, as some seem to think, we cannot say, nor do we deem that at all necessary to the purposes of this history. But to show that these statements are not without foun- dation, it may be well to refer to some assertions made by Dr. Sachse in his "German Pietists," pp. 319 et seq. The title of the Frankfort Land Company to the Manatawney tract of 22,000 acres, confirmed October 25, 1701, [which?] is supposed to have been settled by Germans as early as 1 700, by emigrants who came over with Daniel Falckner upon his return. The development of this tract, a part of which still bears his name " Falckner's Swamp," occupied much of the time and energy of the German Mystic, and as a result he gradually lost his interest in Germantown civil affairs, as well as in the commun- ity he had been instrumental in establishing on the Wissahickon. He then refers to Pastor Sandel's account of his visit to Manatawney, in company with Daniel Falckner, in the fall of 1704, in which he says he assisted Falckner at the church service on Sunday, October 15. One of the first things he did in the new settlement was to organize a congregation, build a church, and hold service accord- ing to the Lutheran ritual. This humble structure, a mere rude log cabin, without any attempt at ornamentation or architectural beauty, with its sparse congregation and enthusiastic preacher, has the distinction of being the first regular German Lutheran church and organized congregation in the western world. It served the congregation until 172 1, when a more pretentious building was erected, also of logs. 52 The New Hanover Lutheran Church. Dr. Schmauk seems to have shared the same view. He says, p. 127, On the return trip to Pennsylvania in 1700 Daniel Falckner is supposed to have brought over with him the Germans who lo- cated in the Swamp and constituted the first permanent Lutheran congregation in the Province. These Germans must have left England on May 25, 1700, and arrived in Philadelphia during the first days of August. They settled on the tract of the Frankfort Land Company in that same year. Dr. Sachse then quotes from the Halle Reports, that It is quite possible that some Germans were already settled here before 1700 and that the Swedish pastors in attending to their own people discovered them and brought them to Falckner's atten- tion. . . . With Rudman, whose ecclesiastical dominion as Provost extended to Douglasville, trying to learn German, and the Falck- ners attending Swedish services to set a good example to the Ger- mans, and with the two new tracts contiguous, it is natural that Daniel Falckner should at once busy himself to organize a con- gregation in his own settlement. That Daniel Falckner was regarded as the pastor of this region is shown by the statement in Eric Tobias Bjorck's "Deplantatione," which was published in 1731 to the effect that the Manatawny region was named after " Pastor Falckner," a view which Acrelius shares. The " Gemein- schaftliche's Schreiben" of 1754 mentions Falckner, "with Henkel and Stoever, as pastors who had been active in Pennsylvania in the period under discussion. This tra- dition must have referred to Daniel Falckner and to his work at Falckner's Swamp." Dr. Schmauk then refers to the fact that only of late years people have been made aware that this was the field of Daniel Falckner's activity Pastors who have Served this Church. 53 and that Justus Falckner's labors as pastor were confined to New York. But we must not overlook some statements made by all the writers already quoted. Nearly all of these statements imply that, for a period of fifty years or more before 1700, German immigrants had been arriving singly and in small squads and settling in various portions of Pennsylvania. How else could we account for the settlements in Oley prior to that time? How else could we explain the fact that German names appear as taxables in some of those districts, years before the time generally assigned as the time of the organization of this congregation? What be- came of the fifty-four German families who came with the Swedish immigration of 1638, of which Dr. Schmauk tells us? Unless we mean to admit that these people had fallen back into absolute heathenism, they must have had occasional services and there must have been efforts at the organization of churches at Falckner's Swamp and at Oley, the two points at which the larger number of these people were found; we might safely say the great bulk of them. May not that have been the reason that Gerhardt Henkel, when he wanted to reach those people, settled at Colebrook- dale? Thiswasonly a few miles from Hill (Oley) Church and hardly more than six or seven miles from New Han- over— perhaps even less, possibly at Boyertown or Bech- telsville, or a point between the two. None of these points is more than six miles from New Hanover. Beside all this we must not forget that in two generations fifty- four families would have become several hundred. And while there is no statement, either traditional or documentary, of which we have any knowledge, that Germans had settled in this section and that they were looked after by the Swed- ish pastors on the Delaware, we do know that the coloniza- 54 The New Hanover Lutheran Church. tion then undertaken (1638 et seq.) was religious, and Lu- theran. It was an effort of the great Chancellor Oxen- stiern to carry out the plans of his Great Chief Gustavus Adolphus. The men who established that colony cer- tainly looked after the spiritual interests of all whom they sent to the new world.1 Between the pastorate of Falckner and that of Gerhardt Henkel there is a period of about nine years unaccounted for. And while there may be no positive proof of the fact the statements of Rev. Daniel Falckner might readily lead to the conclusion that the Swedish pastors interested themselves in these people and provided them with occa- sional services. In fact, the statement of Rev. Falckner as to the interest which he and his brother took in the study of Swedish, and Provost Rudman's agreement to supply German services, might cause us to conclude that he ( Rud- man) took care that the congregation was provided with German services when they did not have a native pastor, and that Sandel did the same. Would it be too much to suppose that Rudman looked after them even before Falck- ner became their pastor? The supply of their spiritual wants by Rev. Hesselius, 1720-23 and by Rev. Gabriel Falk, 1735-42, when they were without a pastor of their own nationality, indicates that this congregation was cared for by the Swedish pastors at Molarton, sometimes by those at Wicaco and possibly in earlier periods from the lower Delaware. Certainly their relations were most friendly, and it is very probable that most of the Swedish pastors were able to speak Ger- man. Some of the names might indicate that they were of German extraction, e. g., Falk, Hesselius, Rudman. 1 Cf. A Brief History of the Colony of New Sweden, Proceedings of Pennsylvania-German Society, Vol. VIII. Pastors who have Served this Church. 55 We think we would be perfectly safe, therefore, in say- ing that Rev. Daniel Falckner was the organizer and founder of this congregation, if it did not already exist before he came there. While it might not be possible to point to any definite record stating the fact, the circum- stances of the case seem to indicate this. At the same time, it may be altogether possible that his brother Justus Falckner, while still a student, aided him in his work, preaching at times and aiding him in looking after the spir- itual interests of the people. After this first pastorate of Daniel Falckner, with a possible supply of their wants by Rudman and Sandel, two Swedish pastors, Rev. Gerhardt Henkel settled among these people. According to a statement of Rev. John Casper Stoever, sr., he (Henkel) had spent the first year in this country, 17 16, in his (Stoever's) congregation in Virginia. Thence he came northward and settled in this section. Although there is some uncertainty in regard to his relations to this church, it is certain that a part of the time he resided in Colebrookdale, where his son-in- law, Valentine Geiger, had land. One of his sons also resided there. About 17 17 he commenced to serve this congregation. Then for some reason or other he gave it up for a few years, during which time (1720-23) it was served by Rev. Samuel Hesselius, the first resident pastor at Molatton. Then apparently Rev. Henkel resumed his relations to this church, which he seems to have maintained until his death, which is said to have occurred about 1728-30. This brings us to the time when the two Stoevers, father and son, arrived in America, September, 1728. That they settled somewhere in this vicinity is generally conceded. In fact we think no question was raised as to John Cas- 56 The New Hanover Lutheran Church. per Stoever, jr.'s activities in this section. That he spent his time here and in Lancaster County (although not yet ordained), at least some of it in this neighborhood, until he made Lancaster County his permanent residence in the fall of 1733, we think has never been questioned. But where was the father? We are told he was called to Vir- ginia early in 1733. Where was he called from? Now in the absence of all evidence to the contrary would it not be natural to suppose that eastern Pennsylvania was his home at the time of the call to Virginia ? All the indica- cations point that way. The ship's list says he was an ordained minister and the son was a theological student. Would it then seem far fetched if we were to suppose that Rev. J. C. Stoever, sr., officiated as pastor of this entire section and that his son, the " Studiosus," acted as his vicar, preaching and upon occasion possibly baptizing children? If that should seem out of the ordinary to some of us, it might be well to remember that that was a very common practice fifty to sixty years ago. Then a young man studying for the ministry would be sent to a vacant field. He would not only preach and catechize, but he would baptize. Any one looking over the minutes of Synod of that period will find numerous instances in which men would report baptisms almost an entire year before they were licensed. Rev. H. M. Muhlenberg's assistants (helpers) did the same. We are not discussing the propriety of the thing, but simply stating facts. But to say the very least, the statements of the Halle Reports on this subject are far from satisfactory. After stating that Rev. J. C. SchuJze, who had become pastor in the fall of 1732, in the fall of 1733 went to Europe together with the delegates Weissiger and Schoener, to seek aid in Germany, it adds: Pastors who have Served this Church. 57 Before this he had ordained Joh. Casp. Stoever, at the Trappe. He, with a relative, who was a namesake and who removed to Vir- ginia, came to this country in 1728. The former served Philadel- phia, Providence, and probably also New Hanover, but moved to New Holland, Lancaster Co., in the fall of that year. We need hardly add that the Halle Report declares what it does not understand. Neither do we, as we cannot make a connected story out of its statements, because to us they seem to be absolutely self-contradictory. Speaking of the elder Stoever, after stating that Joh. Casp. Stoever, sr., calls himself the first pastor of the con- gregation in Virginia it adds: He took charge of the congregation in 1733. He also declares that the congregation has been without a pastor and without any services for sixteen years. It also states that it is not known where J. C. Stoever, sr., resided from 1728-33, when he received the call to Vir- ginia. It even makes the queer suggestion that he too might have been ordained by Rev. J. C. Schultze. The Pennsylvania Archives show clearly that he had entered his name on the ship as an ordained minister. The brief autobiography of the son, J. C. Stoever, jr., makes the same assertion. We might also add as a matter throwing additional light on the activities of Rev. Gerhard Henkel, that the Halle Reports, quoting from a publication of the elder Stoever, says that he (G. H.) came to Virginia six- teen years before (in 17 17) with the settlers. But he did not remain a long time. "He went to Pennsylvania, his original destination." Note. — According to the short account of an Ev. Luth. German Con- gregation at Spotsilvania, Hanover, 1737, it was undoubtedly the younger 58 The New Hanover Lutheran Church. Stoever who went to Virginia. The elder Stoever seems never to have gone to Virginia. Now all this indicates very clearly that J. C. Stoever, sr., spent the first five years of his residence in America some- where outside of Virginia — apparently, we think, in Penn- sylvania, in the vicinity of Philadelphia, Trappe, New Hanover, and other places. It also shows conclusively that J. C. Stoever, jr., was not ordained until his father was about to leave, or had just left for Virginia. We think we can readily understand why, under existing cir- cumstances, the father should not wish to ordain his own son. It might also be possible that the son was satisfied to remain without ordination, until he found that J. C. Schultze's trip to Europe and his father's removal to Vir- ginia would place him in a position very undesirable. Yet all the circumstances would seem to indicate that the father might either have been present on the occasion, or having arranged all matters to his own satisfaction, had left shortly before. It is certain that the ordination as well as the marriage of John Casper Stoever, jr., took place April 8, 1733. This is his own statement. Certainly Rev. John Casper Stoever, sr., had not set out for Vir- ginia long before that time, if he had set out at all. It would not be surprising to find that the application of the young man had the endorsement of the father, and was made at the request, or call, of his own congregations, New Holland, Muddy Creek, Hill or Quitapohila as it was then called, Little Tulpehocken, Swatara, and possibly Lancas- ter and even Bieber Creek (Strasburg) . He certainly had regular services, and what he considered regular congrega- tions at the first four of these points and probably at all of them. He was certainly regarded as the regularly ac- cepted pastor. To us it has for some time seemed natural Pastors who have Served this Church. 59 to regard him as having been ordained for this parish, to which he removed a few months after his ordination, with the right and privilege of performing the various actus minis teriales in the congregations at Philadelphia, Trappe, New Hanover, Germantown and all the territory connected with them, during the absence of their own regular pastor in Europe. Now without asserting that this was what occurred, for nothing definite is known, what would be more natural than that the father, about to start on that journey, and knowing that he might not see his son on earth again, should have accompanied him and Rev. Schultze to Muddy Creek, than which no more central point could have been found, to see that son ordained in the midst of his own people, and to be just as publicly married with the father's benediction ? It is certain, for the church record so states, that Rev. J. C. Schultze baptized children here, at Muddy Creek, either the week preceding or within the three weeks succeeding, during the month of April. Why should he have made that trip of forty miles or more to do what Stoever himself could have done, without making a special trip, a few days later? Or why should he have interfered in Stoever's field afterwards? Besides all this was there ever any authority other than that of the " Tulpehocken Confusion " for the statement that he was ordained in a barn, or a tavern, at the Trappe? The Halle Reports, in arguing the matter, continually refer to that partisan document and try to show that the ceremony took place in a barn and not in a tavern as alleged there. Now we humbly submit that it is not proven and should not be accepted as true upon so un- reliable an authority. For when good Christian people so far forget themselves and their principles that they 60 The New Hanover Lutheran Church. become involved in open riot on the Lord's day within the temple of the Lord, they have no right to expect us to accept their statements as to any of the details, especially those derogatory to their opponents. This holds good as to both parties to that controversy and to any of a similar kind. We say these things because that whole document is nothing but a bitter attack upon J. C. Stoever for the pur- pose of defaming him and discrediting him, not only among his own people, but among all others. If any one thinks we use strong language, let him read that missive as well as the " broadside " against Rev. Lische, and he will be con- vinced that it is really a very mild statement of the matter. Rev. Lische, after he had wronged both Lutherans and Reformed by betraying them in turning their church prop- erty in Donegal over to the Moravians, so that both Lu- therans and Reformed found themselves without a church or congregation, rued his bargain and returned to the Re- formed. They turned upon him after they had used him, and abused him without measure. Stoever, who was with- out doubt a rough man and one whom they could not bend to their purposes, they abused because they could not use him. The record of baptisms at Moselem, Oley (Hill) , New Hanover and Stoever's own record would indicate that for several years he came back occasionally, at regular inter- vals, to hold services and to baptize the children. He may have done so for a time, even after Gabriel Falk, the next pastor, took charge. Falk apparently remained in charge a considerable time — from 1735-42 most of the time. During parts of 1738-39, possibly during the entire two years he was absent, in the south, in Carolina and Georgia. But after his return he seems to have resumed his relations Pastors who have Served this Church. 61 to this congregation, for a time at least. But the fact that when Rev. H. M. Muhlenberg arrived, in November, 1742, a certain N. Schmidt claimed to be the pastor, shows that his relation to the congregation must not have been altogether cordial, and that the congregation did not desire it to be permanent. The statements of Rev. Dr. Kretschman concerning these matters in his " History of the Trappe Church " are a virtual repetition of the ac- counts of the Halle Reports. Besides, he seems not to desire to enter into a discussion of the early history of this church and congregation at New Hanover. It will there- fore not be necessary to quote from him in confirmation of the statements already made. The Pastorate of Rev. H. Muhlenberg and his Assistants. It will not be necessary to connect a sketch of the life of Muhlenberg with this history at this point. Yet since we are treating of one of his original congrega- tions, and certainly the old- est among them, we must recount some of the inci- dents of his busy and trying career, especially those most directly connected with this congregation. We do not know that it has ever been distinctly stated why he selected New Providence (The Trappe) as his place of residence, although New Hanover was not only 62 The New Hanover Lutheran Church. the oldest, but by far the strongest of the three united congregations, which called him. It may have been be- cause the Trappe was most centrally located, so that he could more readily reach the others. He may also have been influenced by the fact that it was at or quite near to the point where the two routes westward and northwest- ward diverged. The one followed the banks of the Schuylkill to Reading and thence to the west through the Lebanon valley. The other passed through the present Boyertown, also along the edge of the Oley Hills and by the " Hill " Church also to Reading. This latter road again diverged northward leading through the gap in the Lehigh Hills, at Long-swamp, to Allemaengel and over the Blue Mountains to the eastern section of Schuylkill County, at that time still a part of Berks. Whatever may have been his purpose in locating there, these advantages were secured. With a few short inter- missions, that was the place of his residence from the time of his arrival in the fall of 1742 until the time of his death in 1787. But what wonderful changes had not these forty-five years wrought. From a few settlements along the Delaware and its immediate vicinity and a sparse popu- lation distributed between it and the Susquehanna, and a few straggling colonies northward along these streams, to a prosperous commonwealth, peopled along its eastern border almost to its northern boundary and westward almost to the limits of its territory in that direction. Its population had been doubled, trebled and possibly increased fourfold in his day. Beginning with three, and then four congregations, himself the sole pastor, their number had increased to from three to four score here in Pennsylvania, with others in New York and the distant South. Instead of three or four united congregations there were two Pastors ivho have Served this Church. 63 synods, or conferences as they were sometimes named. Instead of a few dependent colonies, helpless and looking to Britain for protection, there was a young and vigorous nation admitted to the councils of the nations of the earth, — but we need not dwell on these things. Even greater strides have been made since that day. For now more congregations are admitted in a single year than the entire church then contained. Before his arrival all seems to have been disorder and dire confusion. In fact this state of things did not cease at once upon his arrival. During the first weeks and months a certain aged and dilapidated minister named Valentine Kraft ( Muhlenberg calls him " der alte Kraft " ) , tried to bar his way and impede his efforts by endeavoring to induce Rev. H. M. Muhlenberg to recognize him as a sort of ecclesiastical inspector and superior. Fortunately for Muhlenberg and his congregations the man's character seems to have been only too well known, so that his efforts were appreciated at their true value. Whether he was actually elected or called by any of the congregations may well be doubted. The character known as N. Schmidt seems to have exerted even less influence, although apparently he may have had the advantage of an actual election or call by at least a portion of the congregation. But we will be par- doned for expressing a serious doubt as to the identity of the person so named. We are not altogether prepared to assert positively that some one not too well versed in matters of that kind, perhaps even the man himself, may have placed the letter N. for M., i. e.f for Magister, or by some other similar trifling mistake, made it appear that N. is the initial letter of the man's first name. But we do know that about the time here designated — 1739 and 40 — 64 The New Hanover Lutheran Church. a certain John George Schmidt officiated in this vicinity as a Lutheran pastor. Thus the man himself wrote his name. This is the name given him in a promissory note in which four prominent members of Stoever's Little Tulpehocken Church bound themselves to pay him an annual salary for services as a minister. When he transfers its payment by order to George Boone, Esq., he writes his own name John George Schmidt. This document gives his residence as Colebrookdale. The declaration, placed in the corner- stone of the third church erected on the Oley Hills (Hill Church), states officially that the Hill Church was at that time included in Colebrookdale District, i. e., Township. The Halle Reports assert positively that this was the same man who posed as pastor at New Hanover, a statement that seems to be correct. So that if this man knew his own name it certainly was John George Schmidt, and any other name given him must be fanciful, or else it must be a mistake. We can hardly think it conceivable, even with the large number of itinerant preachers on hand, that there should have been two named Schmidt, at the same time in this same section. For J. G. Schmidt's residence was not over six to eight, and possibly not more than four to five miles from New Hanover. But he seems to have had very little influence. Besides all this, most of the time, during the first one hundred and twenty-five to one hundred and fifty years of their existence New Hanover and Hill Church were connected in one and the same parish. Rev. H. M. Muhlenberg at once set himself to work to try to improve the condition of things. He organ- ized the school. Perhaps we should say, he put it on a better basis. We will not go into the details as to his labors and efforts in this direction in the other congre- Pastors who have Served this Church. 65 gations. But he soon succeeded in putting the school at New Hanover on a better footing. One thing that made his efforts in this direction more telling was the fact that he could avail himself of the help of some of the men sent to this country as teachers, and thus fit them for their subsequent position as pastors of churches. He thus used Schaum, the two Kurtzes and others. He accomplished two purposes. He secured good schools with efficient teachers, and at the same time he recruited the ranks of the ministry. But his congregations were also without suitable places of worship. He at once set himself to work to supply that want. The two congregations at Philadelphia and the Trappe seem to have been entirely without suitable edifices of any kind. Rev. Muhlenberg did not let the time pass by unimproved in this direction. Only a few years elapsed (October 6, 1745) before St. Michael's had a suitable home. At the Trappe it was no longer neces- sary to meet in a barn. He succeeded in inducing the congregation at New Hanover to complete their church building, begun in 1741, and later convinced them that they needed larger quarters, better accommodation and equip- ment. As a result the present substantial building was erected. Although this church has been remodeled and beautified a number of times, it is still virtually the same building erected during the pastorate of Rev. Louis Voigt one hundred and forty-two years ago — bearing testimony to the substantial character of the work of those days. This was but a small portion of the work that rested upon his shoulders. He cared for numerous congrega- tions beside his own, supplying them occasionally with preaching, guiding and counselling them in the erection of churches and the securing of pastors. He was prac- 66 The New Hanover Lutheran Church. tically the bishop, or superintendent, of the Lutheran Church in North America, without the specific title. Northeastward his labors extended to Plainfield, Alle- maengel (now Albany) Berks County, New Germany and New Germantown, New Jersey, and even into the State of New York; westward and northwestward to Northumberland, to the very limits of civilization in that direction, including what is now Union and Snyder Coun- ties; southward as far as the country extended. To the eastward they could not well extend beyond the bounds of his own parish, as that was limited by the sands of Jersey and the ocean. But as might readily be supposed, those who had sent him being earnest men, and alive to the responsibilities in- volved, soon found assistants for him. While these men are generally called his assistants, he himself desig- nates them as " helpers." Some of them were helpers in the sense that they were expected to do special work, so that the pastors might devote themselves more fully to their specific work. The first two men sent to his assist- ance, strictly speaking might properly have been called co-pastors. It is true they labored in different parts of the territory, but they frequently appeared in each other's congregations. A late writer describes the situation thus: That Pastor Muhlenberg would not be able always to do the work which his call brought upon him in increasing measure, was also perceived clearly by the three congregations, to which Ger- mantown had been added as a fourth. In 1743 already they au- thorized Professor Francke, in their name to call another pastor as assistant to Muhlenberg, together with one or two catechists. He then continues: Pastors who have Served this Church. 6j As early as January 29, 1744, Francke wrote, "since the Lord has opened the door in Pennsylvania, the large field absolutely de- manding that more laborers be sent, if the man already there is not to fall exhausted, upon his earnest request, backed by recom- mendations from England, I have endeavored to find a suitable person to be sent as a second pastor. In addition there should be a theological student (studiosus) found here, who could be sent." Several had already declined. From this he concluded that they were not the proper persons. But while writing thus he already had in view a man who had also been re- commended by others, as a suitable man to be sent to America. This was Peter Brunnholtz, born at Niebuhl, Schleswick, educated at Halle. He was first employed at the orphans' home there and then as a catechist in an in- stitution not far distant, founded by a nobleman. He had done well. Through his patron the call to Pennsylvania was brought to his attention. February 29 he wrote to Halle, virtually accepting. After a successful examina- tion, he pledged himself under oath, stating that, having been regularly called by Aug. Gotthilf Francke, " by virtue of authority vested in him by the Deacons and Elders of the Ev. Lutheran congregations in Pennsylvania, espe- cially those in Philadelphia, New Hanover, Trappe and Germantown " — not only himself to remain faithful to the end to the pure and unadulterated word of God, as the same is comprehended and presented very carefully in ac- cordance with the true intent of the spirit, in the three chief symbols (creeds), and also more specifically in the genuine Lutheran confessions, e. g. The Augsburg Confession, The Apology, The Smalcald Articles, The Two Cate- chisms of Luther and The Formula Concordiae, briefly summarized from the Scriptures and plainly set forth, I will also strive as far as in me lies, by the grace of God, to 68 The New Hanover Lutheran Church. instruct and edify the congregations entrusted to me, ac- cording to this rule, in that true Christian faith, and to oppose all soul destroying error. I will also so conduct myself as regards both doctrine and life, towards those committed to me, and toward all men, as becometh me as a servant of Christ, and as I shall be able to answer for at the Judgment Bar of God. We make no special comment on this specific and very strong declaration of adherence to all the confessions of the Lutheran Church, except to point out how sadly mis- taken or how poorly informed must be those men who have been and still are citing these men as authority for looseness of doctrine and confessional statement. In fact it requires a great stretch of charity to believe that those who thus cite these men are not grossly ignorant of the facts of history, or else, that they deliberately falsify. At Hamburg Brunnholtz was joined by two other men who also figure in the history of this congregation and the Lutheran Church, the catechists J. N. Kurtz and J. H. Schaum. They too had received a vocation from the offi- cers of these congregations, through Dr. Francke. It was expressly declared in the call that they should be under the supervision of Muhlenberg and Brunnholtz, teaching school and preaching when called upon. Although they embarked at Gravesend, September 22, they only sailed November 29, and arrived at Philadelphia, January 26, 1745. There was great rejoicing upon their arrival. After one of the Deacons had brought them to his house all joined in singing " Praise the Lord, O, My Soul," and united in a prayer of Thanksgiving. It will not be necessary to repeat the story of the pe- culiar difficulties under which Muhlenberg had labored, and it is useless to say that he greatly rejoiced when he Pastors who have Served this Church. 69 found that others would now help him to bear the burden. These difficulties were by no means imaginary. First of all he found a bitter opponent in the printer Christopher Saur. Again he had to deal with a rude people, who seemed to prefer irresponsible itinerants like Andreae, who advised them to enjoy life and let others enjoy it too, who seemed concerned only to let men gratify their pas- sions. According to Rev. Muhlenberg's statements, those fond of carousing were accustomed to say: " As we must pay our money to the preacher anyway, we may as well hire a jolly fellow." "This Muhlenberg is too strenu- ous for us." He was publicly denounced by Andreae as a pietist and a Moravian. They even attacked Muhlen- berg's private character. But the concocter of that scheme was compelled publicly to acknowledge that the accusa- tions were deliberate fabrications. Need we wonder that the coming of these men is said to have rolled a great stone from his heart? As a late writer justly remarks, Brunnholtz proved a strong reinforcement, particularly as the congregations ratified the call in such form that he, like Muhlenberg, was recognized as pastor of the joint congregations. As early as 1745, after much consideration, this arrangement was so modified that the town congregations were assigned specifically to Brunnholtz and those of the country to Muhlenberg. Yet everything was to be arranged and car- ried out by mutual agreements, exchanging pulpits occa- sionally. However there was some difficulty in fixing the position and responsibilities of the catechists. It was found diffi- cult to designate the sphere of their activity, their rights and their duties. The relation and intercourse of the two pastors seems to have been always pleasant and cordial. 6 70 The New Hanover Lutheran- Church. Dealing with the catechists seems to have been a difficult and delicate matter. Probably the difficulty lay in the untried and unsettled condition of affairs in this country. These men had come away from a well-ordered and set- tled state of things, and it would have been almost strange for them not to be affected by their environments. It might almost have been expected that these young men would give rein to their imagination and expect to be able to set up at once as full-fledged pastors. They had studied and prepared themselves where Muhlenberg and Brunn- holtz had studied and prepared, and why should they not at once be placed on a par with them? Possibly too the cause of their dissatisfaction lay in the fact that they, as far as freedom from care and the necessity for personal self-denial were concerned, were really better placed than their superiors. Rev. Handschuh, who reached this country nearly three years after Muhlenberg, although subsequently pastor of Philadelphia, seems not to have had any direct connection with this congregation. But it does almost seem as if this congregation had in reality been used as a training school for ministers. It seems to have furnished the largest number of graduates. It was here that the two Kurtzes, Schaum, and Lucas Rauss were employed as assistants and then became pastors. While it may pos- sibly be questioned that the latter was directly recognized as an assistant of Muhlenberg, Rev. Brunnholtz says dis- tinctly that Rauss was his assistant at Philadelphia and that he sent him out to help Muhlenberg. Unless the Halle Reports are entirely mistaken H. M. Muhlenberg was the pastor of this congregation uninter- ruptedly from November, 1742, until October, 1762, a period of twenty years. Vigera was his first assistant as Pastors who have Served this Church. 71 a teacher of the school. He was succeeded by J. Nicholas Kurtz, who was his adjunct and helper in a wider sense, for he not only taught the school, but he frequently preached, at first memorizing other men's sermons, and then preaching some of his own. During all this time he catechized the children from the spring of 1745 to Decem- ber, 1746, when he moved to Tulpehocken. John Albert Weygandt, was there [N. H.] a short time during 1748. In the year 1752, at a conference held in January, Fred. Schultz was assigned to New Hanover. He served New Goshen- hoppen and Indian field at the same time, and left New Hanover in the year 1754. In 1757 we find (J.) Wm. Kurtz there, but next year he is sent to Tohickon. In the same year Rev. Joh. Helfr. Schaum of Tohickon was called to N. Hanover. In Apr. 1762 he removed to his own field. In May, 1762, Jacob Van Buskirk became the assistant. October 12, 1763, he was or- dained as pastor. It will be seen in this account that during some of the years Rev. Muhlenberg alone served the congregation as their pastor, or else called on such as may have been able to help him. Although his two sons, Frederick A. and Henry E., are classed among his successors, we have a very strong suspicion, based on some known facts, that they were as- sistants or possibly substitutes or supplies rather than reg- ular pastors. Be this as it may, we will count them as generally given, with those who succeeded their venerable father. It will not be necessary to do much more than simply enumerate those who are the 72 The New Hanover Lutheran Church. Successors of Rev. H. M. Muhlenberg. The first of these was Rev. Jacob Van Buskerk, who was ordained for this position in 1763. But he only re- mained a few years, having moved to Germantown, 1765. Rev. Ludwig Voigt was the next pas- tor. He first resided at the Trappe or Providence and then at Pikestown, Chester County. He served this con- gregation, 1765-76. It was about this time that Rev. Muhlenberg again settled at the Trappe and his two sons aided him in caring for the churches. Frederick A. C. Muhlenberg had been driven from New York shortly before that city was captured by the British. It is not made quite clear where he spent the latter part of 1776 and 1777, but in 1778 he appears as his father's aid or substitute both at New Hanover and Oley Hills. In 1779 he was elected to the legislature and he quitted the ministry. In 1779 and 1780 Rev. H. Ernst Muhlen- berg, the youngest of the sons, who had been third pastor in Philadelphia and was compelled to fly when the city was captured by the British, took his brother's place. According to notes furnished a Rev. Kiel or Kuehl served the congregation in 1788. But we have so far not seen his name mentioned elsewhere as a minister. He evidently was preceded by Rev. Frederic Ernst, a cate- chist, who immediately succeeded Rev. H. E. Muhlen- berg. He (Ernst) was succeeded by Rev. Christian Streit, 1782-85. Rev. Daniel Lehman succeeded him, ap- parently as a supply from 1786-88. Whether Dr. Kunze ever supplied the congregation or whether he simply ap- Pastors who have Served this Church. 73 peared as an occasional visitor cannot be stated. But now the time and extent of the various pastorates become moremarked. Rev. J. F. Weinland was pastor from 1789 to 1796; Rev. F. W. Geissenhainer, sr., D.D., 1796-1808; Rev. Jacob Miller, D.D., 1809-29; Rev. Conrad Miller, 1829-52; Rev. Nathan Yaeger, close of 1852-57; Henry Wendt, 1858-64; Rev. Abraham Groh, 1865-66; Rev. Leonhard Groh, D.D., 1866-86; Rev. J. J. Kline, since then. In a sketch published in "Lutheran Zeitschrift," July, 1867, the name of Rev. J. G. Roeller intervenes be- tween those of Rev. F. Weinland and Dr. F. W. Geissen- hainer, sr.1 This is the list of pastors from Muhlenberg to L. Groh as presented there: Muhlenberg, Weinland, Roeller, sr., Geissenhainer, J. Miller, C. Miller, Yaeger, Wendt, A. Groh, L. Groh. It then adds — " Towards the close of the former century, Revs. H. Muhlenberg, Voigt, Kiel and Catechist Ernst preached for a time, but no one re- mained here long." It will be seen that this list em- braces hardly one half of the men who officiated as pastors, assistants and supplies for this congregation since its or- ganization, more than two hundred years ago. We add an approximate list, putting those into brackets whose names are not certainly connected with the congregation.

Scarcely any time elapsed between the pastorate of Weinland and that of Geissenhainer. August 21, 1796, Weinland presented his resignation. August 29, the con- gregation invited Geissenhainer to preach. October 13, he preached and was elected for six years, from April next. So there was no other pastor in the interim. 74 The New Hanover Lutheran Church. Schultze, Gabriel Falk, N. Schmidt or John Geo. Schmidt, Henry M. Muhlenberg, P. Brunnholtz, J. N. Kurtz, J.

Short Biographical Sketches of Ministers who Served the Congregation. AlRST short biographies of *W those of whom it is cer- tainly known that they have served this congregation will be given. This will be followed by brief sketches of those concern- ing whom there is reasonable doubt whether they served the congregation or whether they were even ordained ministers at all. The first regular pastor evi- dently was Rev. Daniel Falckner. J His life is so interwoven with the beginning of this church's history, that it is almost impos- sible to give an account of one without referring to the other. The most remarkable feature of the whole matter, however, is that for almost two centuries his work and activities in this place were ascribed to his brother. How 75 *]6 The New Hanover Lutheran Church. this happened we shall not stop to explain. But it is one of those strange things which are sometimes brought about by substituting tradition for actual facts, a state of things which occurs only too frequently. It might possibly occur to some that some of the writers of sixty and seventy years ago were so intent upon prov- ing that the men of one hundred and fifty and two hun- dred years ago were disloyal to their church and to its confessions that they overlooked the actual facts of history, — that they were too busy, trying to establish pet theories of their own, to take time to verify the facts as they really are. The whole story therefore, except the mere fact of the ordination of Justus Falckner, is found to be the prod- uct of a vivid imagination. And yet, notwithstanding all these unfavorable statements, considering all the cir- cumstances, the people of that day (Falckner and Muhlen- berg) showed not only a firm attachment to the confessions of the church, but an earnest zeal, and at the same time put forth earnest and commendable efforts to provide the scattered members of the church with the preaching of the Gospel. Muhlenberg, justly styled the Patriarch of the Lutheran Church in America, coming at a time when dis- order and confusion prevailed, and being specially fitted for the work, brought order out of chaos. But it would be a grave mistake, while granting him the preeminence which he deserves, to suppose that he was the only one who labored for the Church in those early days; or that others had not labored before his time. While their suc- cess, perhaps, may not have been commensurate with their opportunities, or our expectations, and while the results may have been comparatively meagre, we must not forget that their field was very difficult and their opportunities were very limited, with no one to aid or encourage them in their work. Biographical Sketches of Ministers. 77 1. Rev. Daniel Falckner. Without going into details as to au- thorities referred to, it will be sufficient to say that in this sketch we give much of the substance of Dr. Schmauk's sketch of the Falckners, as found in the Proceedings of the Pennsylvania-Ger- man Society, Vol. XI, pp. 104 et seq., with statements from Dr. Julius F. Sachse. Many of the statements of this sketch will also apply to Justus Falckner. The two brothers, Daniel and Justus Falckner, were from Langen Reinsdorf, Diocese of Zwickau, in that part of Saxony formerly known as the Margravate of Meissen. Their ancestors had been ordained Lutheran ministers. The grandfather, Christian Falckner, died November 5, 1658, and the father, Daniel Falckner, d. April 7, 1674, had been pastors of Langen Reinsdorf. Daniel's children were Paul Christian, b. February 2, 1662; Daniel, b. De- cember 25, 1666; a third child, name not given, and Jus- tus, b. November 22, 1672. The sons were educated for the ministry and eventually ordained. " According to the Berkenmeyer papers there can be no doubt whatever as to Daniel Falckner's regular ordination." Whether he was ordained 1693, prior to his departure to America or during his visit to Germany, is an open question, al- though most probably it was at the latter period. A detailed account of his relations to the Frankfort Land Company, or of his relations to and connection with the Germantown Mystics will not be given. While these things might be interesting and even very instructive, they are hardly germane to the subject. The statement of a few principal facts must therefore be sufficient. 78 The New Hanover Lutheran Church. He came to America with Koester, Kelpius and the Mystics. He was sent back to Europe. After his return from that trip he took part in the civil government, " be- came burgess of Germantown and in a year or two settled down to married life." He is last mentioned in connec- tion with the local affairs of Germantown in 1704. In 1708 he became the victim of a conspiracy, lost his prop- erty and was thrown into jail. Being utterly disheartened, he accepted the invitation of his brother, Justus, to minister to the Lutherans in East Jersey. Here he was installed as pastor of several congregations, and " here he settled for the remainder of his life. Two of his daughters married parishioners." Later he had eight congregations. After the death of Joshua Kocherthal, 17 19, and of Jus- tus Falckner, 1723, for a short time, he served German and Dutch Lutheran congregations between Albany and Staten Island. When Rev. W. C. Berkenmeyer took charge of his congregations, Daniel Falckner collected money among his Jersey congregations for building a church in New York city." When the church was dedi- cated Rev. Berkenmeyer showed that he recognized the validity of Falckner's ordination. At the dedication of Trinity Church, New York, June 29, 1729, Daniel Falck- ner officiated at the altar and warmest thanks were tend- ered him and his congregation by Pastor Berkenmeyer, for their contributions. " Pastorius had vilified and maligned him, and Sprogel had grievously wronged him, but nothing corroborative of their charges has ever been found." We will not enter into a lengthy account of his trip to Europe towards the close of 1698, whither he was sent by the leaders of the colony at Germantown, " to set forth the lamentable state of the political as well as the religious condition of Biographical Sketches of Ministers. 79 the Province [Pennsylvania]." During this journey he visited Holland, Germany and England and aroused re- newed interest in the condition of the Germans here. His visit and his publications did much to stimulate immigra- tion. Upon his return he was accompanied by several theological students, one of them being his brother Justus. His acts and doings as the head of the land company need not be recited in detail. It will be sufficient to note that his course led to the usual results. He was defamed, his name blackened and posterity was led to believe him a monster. It was discovered only after almost two cen- turies had elapsed that these statements had no other foun- dation than the spiteful utterances of enemies, who found their iniquitous plans thwarted by him. But he was finally forced out of his position and compelled to yield the prop- erty to the conspirators. The story of his connection with the organization of this congregation need not be repeated here. It has al- ready been given. That he showed steadfastness of char- acter, adherence to principles, and firmness of conviction is evinced by his refusal to ordain men as to whose fitness and worthiness he had serious doubts, when they appealed earnestly to him. The same spirit is manifest in his readi- ness to give up his congregations when the feebleness of old age overtook him, although he knew himself to be des- titute and liable to become a burden to others. He died in New Jersey in 1741. Although his name was over- looked for a long time, and his labors were depreciated, we are glad to know that his name will pass into history as that of the first regular pastor of the oldest German] Lutheran Congregation in America. 80 The New Hanover Lutheran Church. 2. Rev. Gerhardt Henckel.1 " Rev. Gerhard Henkel, who was a German court preacher, came to America about 171 8" — others say 17 17 — " and located at Germantown, Pa."2 He was a " descendant of Count Henkel of Poeltzig, who was instrumental in sending Rev. Muhlen- berg to America. Count Henkel was a descendant of Johann Henkel, D.D., LL.D., born in Bietschau." In the " Biography of Gerhart Henkel," it is given as Leut- schau, Hungary. He was father confessor to Queen Mary (Maria) about 1530. It is further stated on good authority that " he [G. H.] was ordained in February, 1692," and that " he was a court preacher, exiled by his sovereign against whose cor- ruption he had inveighed. In 17 17 he came to Pennsyl- vania with a large family, some of whom were already married." Some of the family, among them Valentine Geiger, a son-in-law, settled at Swamp, i. e., New Hanover. He also owned land in Colebrookdale Township. Gerhard Henkel, jr., located at Colebrookdale, in the vicinity of the Oley Hill Church. Some of them afterwards proceeded to the south, Justus locating in North Carolina. Rev. 1 See Special Note on page 161. 2 According to the statement made by Rev. John Casper Stoever of Virginia, in a publication issued at that time, he came to that section in 1716 and after remaining a year " went to Pennsylvania, his original destina- tion." Apparently his home, for part of the time at least, was in Cole- brookdale Township, not far from the Oley Hill Church. Both his son and namesake, Gerhard Henkel, as well as Valentine Geiger, his son-in- law, owned land in that vicinity. The latter also owned land at New Hanover. The tracts, in all probability, were not more than four to six miles apart. Biographical Sketches of Ministers. 81 Henkel at once took up the work of a minister and preached at the Swamp, Manatawny, Germantown, Oley (i. e., Oley Hills or Colebrookdale) , Tulpehocken (Reed's church) and possibly although not certainly, Moselem and Rockland. The writer need not repeat at length what is said concern- ing the application of the term " Anbauer des Amtes " in J. W. Early's "Lutheran Ministers of Berks Co." But every one who has carefully read Muhlenberg's reports will know that Muhlenberg himself explains the term " Amtes " when he tells us he means a township and not a congregation or an office in it. " Valentine Geiger was the oldest inhabitant of the said township (des besagten Amtes)." Concerning Henkel's relations to the ordination of Van Dieran, or Von Thieren, as the Moravians called him, it will be sufficient to say that Henkel himself says he did not ordain him. Unless we have just reason to doubt the man's veracity that should settle the matter. But even if he had ordained him it would be the part of common charity to say that it was an error of judgment. He would hardly have done it for the purpose of inducting an unsuitable person into the office of the Christian Ministry. But it may safely be said that the family of no man (not even that of Muhlenberg who himself came to this country from the fatherland) has furnished a longer line of eminent descendants, who both in and out of the minis- try, have exerted a larger or more lasting influence upon the Lutheran Church of this country. Rev. Henkel was the first German Lutheran minister residing in Pennsyl- vania to serve a congregation west of the Schuylkill. Besides the pioneer himself, there were four sons and a son-in-law active and prominent in the church in eastern Pennsylvania. Paul, a great-grandson, was quite promi- 82 The New Hanover Lutheran Church. nent and active as a Missionary in the South and West. Dr. Solomon and Rev. Ambrose, his sons, established an influential publishing-house at New Market, Va., in 1806. Five sons of Rev. Paul Henkel, viz: Philip, David, Charles of Ohio, Andrew of Indiana and Ambrose of Virginia, were able and active Lutheran ministers. A number of grandsons were also ministers — Eusebius, Dr. P. C, of Conover, N. C; Dr. D. M., of Catawissa, and Dr. Socrates, of New Market, Va. Several of the Stire- walts were also grandsons — thirteen descendants, ten in the direct male line, in the Lutheran Ministry, and every one, as far as known, of unblemished character and acknowl- edged ability. 3. Rev. Samuel Hesselius. Rev. Hesselius was one of the Swedish pastors at Molatton. From 1720 to 1723 he served this con- gregation as supply. History does not tell us very much about the man. We are informed, however, that Charles XII. of Sweden, whose remarkable career has been graphically described by Vol- taire, as early as 17 17 appointed him as pastor of the Swedes along the Delaware, but without assigning him the superintendency. In the meantime Jonas Lidman, who was also designated for service in America, was appointed pastor at Wicaco and Hesselius became his assistant, with the expectation of securing the position at Christiana, then occupied by his brother Andrew, as provost or superin- tendent. A short time afterwards Samuel Hesselius re- Biographical Sketches of Ministers. 83 moved to the Swedish settlement at Manathanim, Bucks Co., twenty miles from Philadelphia. He also served Neshaminy, nearby. Being a native of Delacarlien, he was called from that place to become a pastor in Pennsylvania. Dr. Jas- per Svedberg, Bishop of Skara, to whom the care of the church in America was entrusted, appointed him as the successor of Sandel. He was ordained April 27, 17 18, in the cathedral at Skara. His departure having been de- layed, Lidman was named as pastor at Wicaco and Hes- selius became his assistant. Both arrived at Philadelphia, December 3, 17 19. Naturally the assistant cared for the more remote points. At a meeting, March 27, 1720, evidently embracing all parts of the congregation, those from the upper section begged tearfully that Hesselius be permitted to take up his residence among them. He did so, serving Manathanim, preaching alternately there and at Neshiminy. Matson's Fort (Swedeland) below Norristown, was added. Then Hesselius, whose mother was a sister of Bishop Svedberg, became the first resident pastor at Molatton. He remained until October, 1723. He then became the successor of his brother Andrew at Christiana. It will be seen from this that he served New Hanover during his entire stay at Molatton. The Halle Reports further state that he was a man of excellent character, and that upon his return to Sweden he carried with him excellent testimonials from his own peo- ple, as well as from the English pastors. After that he became pastor at Rumfertuna, in the diocese of Westeras. He was twice married, his second wife being Gertrude Stille. She died at sea on the return trip. He had evi- dently conducted the services both at Molatton and at New Hanover in small log churches, erected a considerable 84 The New Hanover Lutheran Church. time before he became the pastor. What has become of the records, or whether he never kept any, we are unable to say. 4. Rev. John Casper Stoever, Jr. This man probably organized more churches than any one else, not even excepting Muhlenberg himself. But before entering upon a sketch of his life and activities it may be well to present his own brief autobiography as prepared by himself a little less than a year before his death. After placing in his " Record " the names of all his children, the date of their birth and baptism, together with the names of their sponsors, he appends the follow- ing statement. John Caspar Stoever [he also had a son John Caspar], the father of the children named above, was born December 21, 1707, in a place named Luedorf in Solinger Amt, Duchy Berg, in Unter Pfaltz [Lower Palatinate]. His parents were John Cas- par Stoever, a native of Frankenburg in Hesse, and Gertrude [family name not given] of Amt Solingen. When he was six years of age he learned to read German perfectly in four weeks under his father's direction. After this he also commenced to study Latin under his father's direction. Subsequently he re- ceived private instruction in Latin and Greek from four pastors successively, named H. Nicolaus Muentz, H. Samuel Bratschisch, H. Valentine Kraft and H. Antonius Pfaffman, and later in the languages named, as also in Hebrew and French, and likewise in theology from H. Knabel and finally from H. Spencal [Superin- dendent] Adolph Ruefeld at Brumath, three hours [12 miles] from Strasburg. Journeyed from Europe to America, 1728, on the Rhine Biographical Sketches of Ministers. 85 and on an ocean vessel, preaching on Sundays. Arrived in Penn- sylvania September 29, and continued to preach; ordained on April 8, 1733, by Christian Schultze, p. t. pastor in Philadelphia, and was married at the same time to Maria Catarina. They be- came the parents of the above named children [eleven]. His wife was born May 14, 171 5, at Lambesheim in Churpfaltz. Her sponsor was Catharine Ursula Schmidt. Her parents were Christian Murckling and his wife Catarina, nee Brucher. No- vember 2, 1778. Whilst I am writing this cursum vitae, my age is by the grace and help of God 70 years, 10 months, I week and 5 days.1 In the original record the following was added in a different hand: His full age, 71 y. 4 m. 3 w. and 2 days. He and his father came to America in the ship " James Goodwill," arriving at Philadelphia, September II, 1728. Evidently in preparing his autobiography he wrote from memory and put a wrong date, or possibly the passengers may not have been brought to land at once. The son is recorded as a " Theol. Stud.," and the father as " Missionaire." To show that there should be no doubt as to the proper relationship of these two men we quote an extract from the diary of Bishop Spangenberg, 1 For reasons not necessary to be mentioned we give the stiffly literal translation furnished in the Record as published by Dr. Egle in " Notes and Queries." We should perhaps add in justice to Dr. Schantz, that, for some reason or other, he published the translation as contained in the copy of " Stoever's Records," placed in the archives at Philadelphia. A smoother and less literal rendering would have been more readable and also more desirable. The publishers of the Halle Reports should certainly have been able to find this document, which was in the hands of a great-grand- son of John Caspar Stoever of Pennsylvania, residing almost within call of the chief editor in Philadelphia. It will be noticed that this too declares indirectly that John Caspar Stoever, of Pennsylvania, is the son of John Caspar Stoever of Virginia. For unless there were two Rev. John Caspar Stoevers living at the same time in Germany, the Rev. John Caspar Stoever who came to America with this one must have been his father. 7 86 The New Hanover Lutheran Church. of July 28, 1748. This was ten years after the father's death. He [Spangenberg] records the fact that he and Matthew Rentz crossed the Blue Ridge to go to the Great Forks of the Rappahannock. " Beyond the mountains there is a prosperous [starkes] settlement of Germans and English. Here there is a regularly organized Lu- theran congregation. Its pastor is Rev. Klug. His pred- ecessor was the father of our [the] well known Stoever." This shows that at that day those even outside of the Lu- theran Church knew that these men were father and son. This is taken from Moravian " Records " at Bethlehem. We will not repeat here what was published in the Lu- theran Church Review during 1908, viz., that the elder Stoever's will was presented both at Philadelphia and in Virginia, and that the younger Stoever there made oath that he was the son and heir of the deceased. In other words, Rev. John Caspar Stoever, Conestoga, declared that the document presented by him was the last will and testament of his father, John Casper Stoever of Virginia. It will also be needless to repeat what has also been stated in regard to his ordination — whether that occurred in a barn or a tavern, whether at the Trappe or at Muddy Creek, or at some other point. It will be sufficient to say that the matter certainly is involved in considerable obscur- ity. Whether there ever was a respectable tradition that it took place in a barn or in a tavern at the Trappe that was not directly traceable to " The Confusion of Tulpe- hocken," is certainly very doubtful. That this is a very poor authority, certainly should be known to every one. For its very evident purpose was to defame and to dis- credit Stoever, without very much regard to truth. The only real fact that stands out unchallenged is that he was ordained April 8, 1733, and that he was married at the Biographical Sketches of Ministers. 87 same time (zugleich). Another fact which we believe is also unquestioned is that within six month after that ordination he settled right in the midst of his congrega- tions. Still another fact is that the man who ordained him baptized some of the children of one of his congrega- tions in the same month, or about the same time he was ordained and married. " It would be impossible in a brief sketch to recount all the labors and activities of the man. Although the Halle Reports tell us that he settled at New Holland immedi- ately upon his arrival in this country, his labors were evi- dently distributed almost equally between the churches in the vicinity of Philadelphia and those west and south of the Schuylkill " during the first five years of his residence in America. If this be correct — and we are not calling it into question — did his father live there too, or did he not ? Would it not seem to fit in with the circumstances of the case, to suppose, that being less than twenty-one years of age when he came to this country, being still unordained, he remained a member of his father's family until the father moved to Virginia ? " Only after his ordination did he seem to confine him- self almost entirely to Lancaster County and the territory south and west of it. At first he apparently acted as as- sistant to Rev. Schultze, and possibly also to his father, of whose field of labor up to the time of his settlement in Vir- ginia, we have thus far found no account." Would it be presumptuous to suppose, especially as Dr. Schmauk asserts that the handwriting of the two is very hard to distinguish, possibly cannot be distinguished, that many of the bap- tisms of those early years, some being performed in Eu- rope and some on the ocean, were those of the elder Stoever. As Stoever, jr., dates nearly all his church 88 The New Hanover Lutheran Church. records and his own baptisms 1733 or after 1733, were not all those prior to that time possibly performed by Stoever, sr. ? Early in the fall of 1733 he settled at the Conestoga, near New Holland, and confined his labors almost entirely to that section from that time on. He commenced church records at Philadelphia, Trappe, Lancaster, New Holland, Muddy Creek, Hill Church (near Annville) , Christ (Lit- tle Tulpehocken) , York, Bindnagel's, Lebanon. He had charge of all these churches at one time or another, and organized a number of them. He organized the church at York and served it ten years, 1733-43. He was also pastor of the Swatara Church, afterwards transferred to Jonestown, twenty to thirty years. He served the Sand Hill Church about three miles south of Hummelstown a number of years. Apparently he also organized and served the Robeson and Allegheny churches in Berks County. " He also travelled beyond the Susquehanna in a southwestern direction, penetrating almost to the center of Virginia via the Shenandoah Valley, stopping in Mary- land on the way, preaching to the scattered Lutherans and baptizing their children." About 1760 he moved to Lebanon, the township, about two miles west of the city. After that he confined his labors mostly to that section, giving up most, if not all of the congregations south of the present Lebanon County line. In 1763 he was admitted into the Ministerium. Al- though cordially received, and the connection was con- tinued, his relations to the synod sometimes were rather strained, as shown by entries in some of the " Records " as well as by statements of the Halle Reports. Biographical Sketches of Ministers. 89 The fact that he had been involved in the " Confusion of Tul- pehocken " and made very prominent in it, not only in the pam- phlet, but in the strife itself, would naturally, perhaps uncon- sciously, weaken the confidence of the parties in one another, especially in view of the fact that efforts were made to bring him back and that he did afterwards serve his original congregation at Little Tulpehocken for several years. "His death occurred on Ascension, May 13, 1779, while confirming a class of catechumens at his own home at Sunny Side (then known as Stoever's Mill), nearly two miles west of Lebanon, about a mile south by east of the Hill Church." His widow survived until October, 1795, when she died at the advanced age of eighty years four months and twenty-three days. The " Hill Church Rec- ord " says that besides the children still surviving, at the time of her death there were 75 grandchildren and 5 2 great- grandchildren— a total of between 130 and 140 descen- dants. One of his descendants, Prof. M. L. Stoever, was for many years Professor of Latin in Pennsylvania Col- lege. A monument has been erected to the memory of John Casper Stoever at Hill Church. It might perhaps even be questioned whether J. C. Stoever, jr., had any direct connection with this congrega- tion at all. The records do not show such a connection. Bearing in mind the fact that he was still in his minority when he arrived here, and that he was not ordained before April, 1733, it is but natural to ask again whether the baptisms recorded at Moselem, at Oley Hills and other points before 1733 were performed by him, or were they his father's acts? There is nothing to justify the assumption that from 1727, when he was but a mere boy, less than twenty years 90 The New Hanover Lutheran Church. of age, he went about for five or six years, baptizing with- out warrant, and in defiance of all order performing the functions of a minister more than a year before he attained his majority. It is probably the confused and confusing statement of the Halle Reports, Vol. i, rev. edit., p. 36, which has led some, we might say almost every one, to speak of him as if this had been the case. Speaking of Rev. John Christian Schulze, the Reports make this statement : Before this he had ordained John Caspar Stoever, who with his relative, a namesake, who moved to Virginia, had come to this country in 1728, at Providence [The Trappe]. He [evidently meaning the John C. Stoever here mentioned and who was now ordained] served Philadelphia, Providence as well as New Han- over, but in the fall of the year he moved to New Holland, Lan- caster Co., Pa. The writer is absolutely convinced that the man who moved to New Holland in the fall of 1728 was Rev. John Caspar Stoever, sr. Of course John Caspar Stoever, jr. settled there too, but as a member of his father's family, and not as a minister of the Gospel. All this would lead to the conclusion that the ministerial acts performed in these congregations, viz., New Hanover, Trappe and so on, prior to 1733 were those of John Caspar Stoever, sr., and that he was the man who officiated in those churches at that time. This is the opinion of some, at least, and there is hardly any room for any other opinion. The " Confusion von Tulpehocken," being referred to a number of times, it may be well to add an explanation. It seems that some one had published an English letter entitled " A Protestation of the Protestant Lutheran and Reformed Religions, about the bad commotion which hap- Biographical Sketches of Ministers. 91 pened on Sunday, the 18th of July, 1742." Whilst the writer does not know of the existence of a copy of this document, it is made plainly evident by the statements of the " Confusion von Tulpehocken," that it existed and charged that the Moravians and their adherents were the instigators of the riot which occurred at the Tulpehocken (Reed's) Church on that day. This is emphatically denied by the " Confusion von Tulpehocken," a German pamphlet, of about twelve pages, of which there is a manu- script copy in the archives at Bethlehem, in the " Church Record" of the Reed's Church deposited there. The pamphlet presents the Moravian side of the story. It charges all manner of wrong doing and iniquity upon John Casper Stiever, as it calls Stoever. Its spirit is very bitter and its language very severe. The writer knows of but a single copy in existence in the hands of the family of Frank Reed, who died a few years ago. A reprint may also be found in our archives at Philadelphia, and in the historical libraries at Gettysburg, and the Susquehanna University. 5. Rev. John Christian Schultze. Concerning this man very little is really known. Much that has been written in the Halle Reports, as well as elsewhere, seems to be pure conjecture. Even in regard to his oft-referred to trip to Ger- many to collect funds and to secure the sending of ministers, much that has been handed down in regard to him and his doings, when thor- oughly sifted seems to be lacking in a solid foundation of fact. Indeed many of the statements made are utterly 92 The New Hanover Lutheran Church. irreconcilable with each other, e. g., it can hardly be pos- sible that if he was imprisoned for embezzlement, he would have gone to the West Indies to establish a publish- ing house with the proceeds of his collections. If he used these proceeds thus, where did Weissiger get the money to cut such a big figure on that trip? Why was Schultze arrested and imprisoned if Weissiger spent all the money? Where did Weissiger get all the money and the books which he is alleged to have shown up, if Schultze had em- bezzled it and spent it? How did Weissiger manage to become quite wealthy, if he paid out everything to straighten out his own accounts and those of Rev. J. Chris- tian Schultze? The accounts somehow or other cannot be squared with each other. But the following facts are known : For full details it is only necessary to refer to the Halle Reports, p. 687. John Christian Schultze (or Schulz) was born June 11, 1 70 1, at Schainbach, Oberamt (County), Gerabronn, Wuertemberg. His parents were Rev. John Valentine Schultze and his wife Anna Juliana. His father was the pastor of the place. The father was twice married. The first wife was the woman named above. She was the mother of two sons and four daughters. He was married again to Frederica Cath. Mar — , who became the mother of five daughters. Of the early training of John Chris- tian Schultze and of the circumstances which induced him to come to America nothing is known. Whether he was influenced by friends in Europe to follow some of his poor forsaken brethren to America to minister to their spiritual wants, or whether he was led by the spirit of adventure to come to this new country and was then picked up by these people, will probably never be certainly known. But his coming to these people seems to be more in the nature of Biographical Sketches of Ministers. 93 a fortuitous circumstance than that of a deliberate purpose on the part of either. The place where he ended his days and how they were ended are also matters involved in serious doubt. Accord- ing to one version for which his enemies, and particularly the enemies of Stoever, seem to be responsible, he ended his days in a prison cell. According to another version, after being freed from his prison, he made off with some of his ill-gotten gains and established a store and publish- ing house in the West Indies. It seems, however, as if both stories were slightly incorrect, and that probably, over- come by the chagrin and the shame attached to the charges brought against him, he dropped out of sight. It certainly would utterly break down any ordinary man to have such charges brought against him, especially if he had become entangled in shady transactions by a friend and fellow traveller. This would prove all the more burdensome if he saw that man profiting and being enriched, and him- self impoverished and despised, as the result of the entire transaction. Very few men could rise above such experi- ences and endure them patiently and calmly. Whatever may have been his end, his pastorate here was brief, prob- ably less than a year's duration, so no great movements were inaugurated nor great results to be expected. 6. Rev. Gabriel Falk. Another of the Swedish pastors at Molatton who served this congrega- tion was Rev. Gabriel Falk. With the exception of the two years spent in wandering about in the provinces of Georgia and Carolina, he seems to have served this field from 1735 till about the time of Muhlenberg's arrival. 94 The New Hanover Lutheran Church. He came to this country as a regularly ordained min- ister. He was selected by King Frederic I. (1720-51) and ordained by Bishop Svedberg in the cathedral at Skara and then furnished with the proper documents. Rev. Falk was a native of West Gothland or Gottland, although his name might indicate that he was of German origin. Th^t he ministered satisfactorily to Germans is shown by the fact that he was pastor or supply of this congregation for more than five years. In coming to this country he had been shipwrecked at Cape Henlopen, barely escaping with his life. January 7, 1733, he became pastor at Wicaco.1 Un- fortunately he quarreled with a member of his church council. Unable to substantiate grave charges, he was fined heavily. He could not remain, although a parson- age had been erected for him. He then removed to Mo- latton (Douglassville) . Soon he commenced the building of the church, which, both according to Rev. Heilman and the Halle Reports was the second edifice. From this time on until his return to Europe, 1745, this seems to Jjave been his residence : perhaps it would be better to say his headquarters. During parts of 1738 and 1739, if not dur- ing the entire two years, " he wandered about in the prov- inces of Carolina and Georgia seeking employment as a teacher and preacher among the English, and also among the negroes, but showing himself everywhere unfit and inefficient." He then returned to Molatton, where he had built a church, 1736-37. Matters did not improve, not only from lack of adaptability on his part, but also because of the strenuous efforts of the Moravians to secure the con- 1 Cf. Acrelius, pp. 269, original ed. Biographical Sketches of Ministers. 95 trol of the congregation, 1742-43. In these efforts they well-nigh succeeded. If the statement of Rev. Clay,1 one of his successors at Wicaco, were to be accepted, he was put out of the minis- try. But this is certainly a mistake. He was simply dis- missed from the pastorate of the church at Wicaco (Gloria Dei), but not deposed from the ministry. The Halle Report's summing up of the man's characteristics, although not charging that he was dismissed from the ministry, would not prepossess any one greatly in his favor. It is there stated that he was not without consider- able ability as a preacher. " But he was involved in difficulty by bringing unsupported charges against a mem- ber of his church council, a man greatly esteemed. For this he was fined £500, and was compelled to leave the congregation." After that we are told, that " he travelled [roved] through Pennsylvania and the South, in Perrys- burg and Pohachocolas — appeared also among the Eng- lish, but proved himself unreliable in every instance," and yet we find him in charge at Molatton. Possibly a hot temper, such as was shown when he slapped the young Moravian preacher in the face, would explain all. This would show why he did not seem to get along well with the people, and why he was involved in quarrels with his own officers. 7. N. Schmidt or John Geo. Schmidt. There is no doubt whatever as to the fact that, about the time of the arrival of Rev. H. M. Muhlenberg, a man by the name of Schmidt was accepted as the pastor of this 1This statement is made by Rev. J. C. Clay, who after the death of Rev. Nicholas Colin, carried Gloria Dei (Wicaco) Church over into the Episcopal fold. Cf. Justus Falckner, Pietist and Missionary, pp. 62. g6 The New Hanover Lutheran Church. church. But there is serious doubt as to the identity and the first name of the man. Rev. Muhlenberg states that prior to his arrival a certain Mr. Schmidt was elected as pastor. He is also referred to in the Halle Reports. With all this in view we still doubt exceedingly whether there ever was a man by the name of Schmidt officiating as a Lutheran minister in this church, or even in fhis section, whose first name began with N. — whether that was meant for Nathan, Nicholas or Nathanael. The only way we can explain the matter would be on the as- sumption that either the man himself or some one else meant to write M. for M agister and instead put the letter N. We often find M. Muhlenberg, M. Kurtz, M. Schulze and others. But it will not be taken amiss if we point out the fact that the statements of the Halle Reports are confusing. First of all they say that this man began to play the role of a pastor as early as 1736. They locate him both at New Hanover and at the (Oley) Hill Church. It is probable that he served both. But the name J. M. Schmidt appears as pastor there, 1780-82. Now while it is not absolutely impossible that this should be one and the same man it is altogether unlikely, especially if we remember that this man, viz., J. M. Schmidt, removed to Virginia and died there about 1 800. It is an absolute certainty that he is not identical with J. A. Schmidt of New York, against whom the congregations were warned in 1796. A synod would hardly warn its congregations against a man about ninety years old. Besides these there was a John George Schmidt, who resided in this section about 1736-45, who claimed to be a Lutheran minister, receiving pay as such. And while it may not be possible to prove that this is the man, it is absolutely certain that if this is not the case Biographical Sketches of Ministers. 97 there must have been four men named Schmidt, regarded as Lutheran ministers of whom the church has very little definite knowledge. Even at the risk, of extending this sketch to a tedious length we insert some of the statements of the Halle Reports, together with some of the facts which are really known. Whether it has any other authority than mere tradition, we do not know. But the statement seems to rest upon a report made by Rev. Muhlenberg. It says that he was a quack dentist — that he set up as a pastor as early as 1736. But here is a promissory note, which may possibly throw more light on the subject than all the traditions can. Bern Township in Lancaster County, May 5, 1739. We, the undersigned, promise to pay to John George Schmidt, minister of the Lutheran Church in the township of Colebrook- dale, County of Philadelphia, the sum of eight pounds — four pounds on or before November 16, 1739, and the other four pounds the 16 day of May, 1740. Witness our hands, in the township of Colebrookdale, in the County of Philadelphia, May 5, 1739. Matthias Smith, conrath scharff, John Kepplinger, John Adolph Heinrich. In July, 1 74 1, this same man — he again signs his name John George Schmidt — wrote an " order " to George Boone, Esq., making the amount payable to him. Now these things show several facts very clearly: (1), That the man claimed to be pastor of a Lutheran congregation in Colebrookdale Township. This was unquestionably the Oley Hill Church, now St. Joseph's in Pike Township. 98 The New Hanover Lutheran Church. In their declaration placed in the cornerstone at the time of the building of their last church, all the officers, with the pastors of the two congregations, declare that this church of the Oley Hills, was considered as belonging to Cole- brookdale. It is therefore evidently the church which this man was then serving. (2) It also shows with absolute certainty that the man serving the Oley Hill Church at that time was called John Geo. Schmidt. (3) It shows equally clearly that if this John Geo. Schmidt was not the one who figured as pastor of New Hanover, there must have been two men named Schmidt, posing as Lutheran pastors in that section, at the same time. Whither the man went, or what became of him, we cannot say. But we are free to say that this man called N. or M. Schmidt referred to a number of times by the Halle Reports as having been pastor at New Hanover and at the Oley Hills, cannot on any reasonable supposition be taken to be the same man that served at Peaked Mountain and Charlotteville be- tween forty and fifty years later, and he cannot possibly be the man who plagued the churches in New York State from fifty to sixty years later. 8. Rev. H. M. Muhlenberg, D.D. It may perhaps seem remarkable that Muhlenberg is already the eighth and possibly the tenth or eleventh pastor to serve this congre- gation during the first forty-five or fifty years of its existence. There were nearly as many changes in the next fifty years. Biographies, some quite full and others very meagre, can be found in Jensen's " American Lutheran Biogra- Biographical Sketches of Ministers. 99 phies," in Schierenbeck's "Sketches" in German; one in the "English Lutheran Almanac" of 1851; another in the " German Almanac " of 1861 ; in Dr. Mann's " Life and Times of Muhlenberg; " in "The Descendants of H. M. Muhlenberg," in the Proceedings of the Pennsylvania- German Society, 1899; in the Pennsylvania-German, Vol. I., No. 3 ; and in a " Life of Muhlenberg," by Dr. Frick, of Milwaukee. We simply give a brief outline of facts and events connected with the man's very busy life. He was a son of Nicholas Melchior Muhlenberg and Anna Mary (Kleinschmidt) . He was born September 6, 171 1, at Eimbeck, Hanover, Germany. From the age of seven until twelve he attended school continuously. His studies were now interrupted by the necessity of helping to support the family because of the death of his father. At twenty-one he resumed his studies. He was employed as an assistant teacher at Zellerfeld and then entered upon his theological studies in the new University of Goettingen, upon a scholarship, provided by his native place, Eimbeck. Then, 1738, he went to the University at Halle. In 1739, having been called as pastor and inspector of the Orphan's Home at Grosshennersdorf, near Herrnhut, he was ordained. September 6, 1 741, he received a call from the congre- gations at Philadelphia, Trappe and New Hanover, Pa., through Dr. A. H. Francke, to whom the congregations had sent an earnest appeal that he should secure a pastor for them. He accepted, laid down his office and departed for America on December 9, 1741. He reached Lon- don via Holland, April 7, 1742. He tarried here, and finally set out for his distant home on June 19. After landing at Charleston, he proceeded to Ebenezer, Georgia, reaching it September 21. Not finding a ship upon his re- ioo The New Hanover Lutheran Church. turn, October 20, he again stopped at Charleston, teaching and preaching. Having found an opportunity to sail for Philadelphia, November 12, he landed on the twenty-fifth. He at once made arrangements to go to New Han- over, and preach there on the following Sunday. He afterward went to Trappe. On December 27 he was re- ceived by the congregations. A few months thereafter Germantown united with the three already mentioned. For two years and a half he served them alone. In 1745 Rev. Brunnholtz and Messrs. Schaum and Kurtz, cate- chists, came to his aid. Rev. Brunnholtz took more direct charge of the town churches, Philadelphia and German- town, while Muhlenberg settled at the Trappe, serving it and New Hanover and exercising a general supervision over the outlying territory. April 30, 1745, he married Anna Mary, daughter of Conrad Weiser the interpreter. He remained at the Trappe until 1761 when for a time he transferred his resi- dence to Philadelphia. But after a stay of some years, he returned to his former home, where he spent the re- mainder of his days. Besides serving his own congrega- tions, he cared for Oley Hills, Moselem, Allemaengel, Tulpehocken and various other points throughout eastern Pennsylvania. He aided the various congregations in securing regular pastors viz., Wagner, Kurtz, Schaum, Schumacher, Lehman and others throughout eastern Penn- sylvania. He also preached the first sermon in Trinity, Reading, and dedicated its church. In 1748 the first Lutheran Synod, now the Evangelical Lutheran Ministerium of Pennsylvania was organized in large measure through his agency. He was frequently elected its president and generally acted as its superinten- Biographical Sketches of Ministers. 101 dent. Towards the close of life he was made its senior and held the office for life. This is the description of the man as given by a certain writer: In stature of medium size, somewhat thickset, robust, rather stooped, countenance friendly and engaging, voice penetrating and a melodious tenor, memory retentive, wit ripe and inexhaustible, a good linguist, acquainted with chemistry, anatomy and medicine. Played skillfully on the organ, the harp, the guitar and the violin, and sang delightfully. The University of Pennsylvania conferred the degree of D.D., upon him in 1784. It would be utterly impossible to recount all his labors and journeyings in behalf of the church in this brief biography. He died about midnight, October 7, 1787. He was buried at the Trappe, im- mediately north of the old church. Three sons perpet- uated his name, John Peter Gabriel, prominent as a gen- eral in the Revolutionary War, buried close to his father; Frederic Augustus Conrad, a preacher, then a member of Congress and speaker of the body, and Gotthilf Henry Ernestus, for many years pastor of Trinity, Lancaster, Pa., and almost equally eminent with his father. That his firm trust in his Saviour had not forsaken him in his last hour is made manifest by the fact that with his dying breath he repeated the last verse of Gerhardt's immortal " Befiehl du deine Wege " — " Commit thou all thy griefs." Unfortunately the hymn as contained in our Church Book does not give a translation of that sublime declaration of trust in Him. We therefore give it as quoted by Dr. J. W. Richards, his grandson. Mach End, O Herr, mach Ende An aller unserer Noth, 102 The New Hanover Lutheran Church. Stark unsere Fuess' und Haende Und lass, bis in den Tod, Uns Allzeit deiner Pflege Und Treu' empfohlen seyn, So gehen unsere Wege Gewiss zum Himmel ein. 9. Rev. Peter Brunnholtz. Rev. Peter Brunnholtz was the first assistant pastor, or rather the coordinate pastor of H. M. Muh- lenberg. They were both called by the United Congregations of Philadelphia, Trappe, New Han- over and Germantown to serve as their pastors, and upon the same terms and conditions to minister to them and any congregations adjoining. For several years they did minister to them jointly, alternating very frequently in their services. But it was soon found that Muhlenberg, being strong and robust, while Brunnholtz was rather feeble and not physically strong, it would be better for the former to look after the two country churches, while the latter devoted himself mainly to the town con- gregations, although they still frequently exchanged pul- pits. They also accompanied each other in the trips to out- lying fields, to Molatton, Oley Hills, Schwarzwald, etc.1 He was born in Niibiil, in the principality of Gliick- burg, Duchy of Schleswig. " He was a candidate of Theology at the time when Muhlenberg" so earnestly pleaded for an assistant. He was selected with the ap- 1 In this sketch we follow the outline of Rev. J. W. Richards, D.D., in the "Lutheran Almanac" of 1851. Biographical Sketches of Ministers. 103 proval of all who knew him and of those who were ac- quainted with the state of things in Pennsylvania. He was well grounded in theology. He had acquitted him- self well in preaching and in the care for souls, also in serv- ing as a catechist on the estates of a Christian nobleman, Hartman von Gensau of Farrenstadt, who was officially connected with the Halle institution. After prayerful consideration he accepted the call offered him by Dr. Francke for America. He was ordained by the Stollber- gist Consistorium at Wernigerode, April 12, 1744. He then continued his journey from Hanover to Hamburg and England. November 29, 1744, he sailed from Gravesend. After a stormy passage he arrived at Phila- delphia January 26, 1745. Muhlenberg received him with great joy. They always remained fast friends. He was of a weak constitution and labored in Pennsylvania only thirteen years. He died July 5, 1758. He had been confined to his bed three months. He was interred in the church at Philadelphia. As the Swedish provost pleaded illness, and as both Muhlenberg and Handschuh were too sad to undertake it, Wm. Kurtz, then a theologi- cal student, "delivered a parentation " on Phil. II., 12, 13. Rev. Muhlenberg then "thanked the English por- tion (of those attending the funeral) in that language for the respect shown to the dead, and re-conducted, accord- ing to custom, the funeral procession to the house of mourning." The funeral procession was " composed of several professors of the academy, of the ministers of all the churches and sects in the city, about fifteen in number, and of a large concourse of citizens from town and coun- try." He " bequeathed his library to the church, and all his money remaining after debts and legacies are paid, to be applied to building a room at the church in which the 104 The New Hanover Lutheran Church. library is to be kept." " He left no children, having lived in celibacy." 10. Rev. J. Nicholas Kurtz, D.D. A brief sketch of this man's life is found in the " Lu- theran Almanac" of 185 1, and rather extensive ones in Jensen and Schierenbeck. Rev. J. N. Kurtz, D.D., was the first Lutheran minis- ter ordained by a synod in America. He came to Amer- ica with Rev. Brunnholtz. But he was simply a catechist and teacher. He was descended from an old Protestant family traced back as far as 1599. He was born in Luetzenlinden, Principality of Nassau, near Frankfort on the Mayne. He received his early education in the gymnasium of his native place, in charge of his father. At the age of fifteen he was sent to the high school at Geissen, where he spent seven years. He also spent six months at the University of Halle. In 1744 he was appointed a missionary to America. He landed at Philadelphia, January 15, 1745, accompanied by Rev. Brunnholtz and J. H. Schaum, also a candidate. He spent two years at New Hanover, preaching on Sun- days and teaching school during the week. All this time he was a mere catechist. December 1746, he removed to Tulpehocken, and took charge of Christ, Northkill, Heidelberg (St. Daniel's), Atolheo (Rehrersburg) and other points. August 25, 1748, he was ordained at the first convention of synod. The following year he also became pastor of Reed's Church, and later he preached also at Schaefferstown and possibly at other points. In 1765 he made a visitation of the churches throughout New York and New Jersey. Dur- Biographical Sketches of Ministers. 105 ing 1762 he removed to Germantown, which was distracted very much. After restoring order there, he returned to Tulpehocken. In 1770 he took charge of York and a number of con- gregations connected with it, exercising a general super- vision over the churches of that section. In later years he was assisted by his son-in-law, Rev. Jacob Goering, who also became his successor. He was the secretary of synod for several years, and in later years its president. May 28, 1788, he was unanimously elected senior — a life office, the successor of Muhlenberg. December 7, 1745, he married Anna Elizabeth Seidel. They had eight sons and three daughters. The youngest son, John Daniel, was for many years the pastor of the Lutheran church at Baltimore, and a man of great influ- ence. One of the daughters was the wife of Rev. Jacob Goering, known as the great preacher. Rev. J. N. Kurtz, D.D., took up his residence at Baltimore in 1792, and died there, May 12, 1794. Dr. Benjamin Kurtz, at one time editor of the Lutheran Observer, and very prominent in the General Synod, was a grandson. Rev. J. N. Kurtz took great delight in church music and gave instruction in singing to his congregations. Schier- enbeck declares him to have been the most learned and practical preacher of his day. He was a very fine Latin scholar. He also served as organist and secretary of the congregations, as well as being their pastor. In the dark days of 1777 he collected clothing and other necessaries for the soldiers. During the stay of Congress at York, he entertained Bishop White, then chaplain of Congress, the Spanish Embassador, then the French Em- 106 The New Hanover Lutheran Church. bassador, and finally, the member of congress from South Carolina. ii. Rev. John Albert Weygandt. The information concerning this man is rather meagre. It is derived almost entirely from the Halle Reports and Schierenbeck's sketch, which however seems to be entirely derived from that source. He was a native of Hanau. He had studied at Halle. He was employed by a party of emigrating Palatines at Frankfurt as their pastor. They sailed in the ship " Hampshire," Capt. Cheesman, from Rotterdam via Falmouth, reaching Phil- adelphia, Sept. 7, 1748. Many of them not being able to pay their passage, were sold to service, and so the congregation was scattered. Weygandt found himself without employment. He was cordially received by the Lutheran pastors. Rev. Muhlenberg took him to his house and employed him in instructing his catechu- mens at New Hanover. There being congregations at Redingtown, and other points of the Raritan district needing spiritual supervision, he was sent thither where he was visited the following year by Muhlenberg. Through the agency of Muhlenberg he now received a formal call from them to be their pastor. They have had a great deal of trouble with a certain Magister Wolf, one of "the irregular pastors," whom they had employed for life. Weygandt's call was therefore made a merely temporary one to continue only " so long as he should live and teach in accordance with the pure doctrine of the Apostles and Prophets and all our Symbolical Books." But the call was not placed in his hands, inasmuch as he was not ordained. It was locked up in the Church Chest by the elders of the congregation. He was furnished a Biographical Sketches of Ministers. 107 copy. In 1750 he was in attendance upon synod and preached before it. In accordance with the resolution of synod, he was ordained at Raritan in the fall of that year by Revs. Brunnholtz, Hartwick, Handschuh, Schaum and J. Nicholas Kurtz. At the same time the new church there was dedicated. In 175 1 he met Muhlenberg at Hackensack, N. J., and also in New York, where he supplied the latter's place for six weeks. Having received a call from those congregations he became pastor in New York and Hack- insack, 1753. As late as 1760 we find him in attendance upon synod and preaching there. It was he that recom- mended Rev. D. Schumacher to Pennsylvania. He had the usual experiences of ministers — difficulties in his congre- gation in New York. But he had become an invalid, and in 1767 he resigned as pastor in New York. He preached English, German and Dutch. From all this it is made manifest that J. Albert Weygand was Rev. Muhlenberg's assistant at New Hanover in a very limited sense and but a very short time. 12. Rev. Frederic Schulze. Rev. Frederic Schulze was born at Koenigsberg, the capital of the Province of Prussia, a strongly fortified city. After completing his preparatory studies, he entered the university at Halle, and then was for a time actively en- gaged in the Orphan's Home there. Having agreed to enter the service of the church in America, in company with Rev. Heintzelman, he set out from Halle, via London, in July, 1 75 1 . But it was deemed necessary that they should be ordained before leaving Germany, so that they might be empowered to perform necessary ministerial acts. Therefore they jour- 108 The New Hanover Lutheran Church. neyed via Wernigerode. They were examined, and July 1 1 they were ordained by the consistorium. They con- tinued their journey via Magdeburg, Stendal, Saltzwedel and reached Hamburg, August 4. On the eleventh they again entered ship and reached London, September 2. After a short time spent with Dr. Ziegenhagen, they again took ship at Gravesend, October 17, and after " a brief voyage of eight weeks reached Philadelphia." Here they were at once put to work by the senior pas- tors. Heintzelman was to assist Brunnholtz by teaching the school, and also by supplying his pulpit at Philadel- phia, as well as Germantown. Rev. Schulze settled at New Hanover, taking charge of the school and preaching there as well as in other congregations served by Muhlen- berg. The following year he also took charge of Gosh- enhoppen and preached there every two weeks. He also supplied Muhlenberg's entire field during the latter's ab- sence in New York, 1752. By agreement with the synod at its meeting in September, he removed to New Gosh- enhoppen, and the next year took charge of Indianfield also. But now he disappears from view. In 1759 neither his name nor that of these congregations is mentioned in the minutes and as early as 1762 they were served by Rev. Jacob Roth. From documents in the archives at Halle we learn that, not long after his arrival in this country, he purchased a farm, and likewise engaged in the practice of medicine, which he had studied. Dr. Francke also acknowledged that he had his doubts about the propriety of sending the man. In 1772 his name again appears as the pastor of the congregation at Lunenberg, Nova Scotia. Here he laid Biographical Sketches of Ministers. 109 down his office in 1782. Nothing further that is reliable is known of him. A statement in the Evangelical Review, Vol. XV., p. 173, without however giving any definite authority, declares that he died in 1809. 13. Rev. John Helfrecht Schaum. In company with J. N. Kurtz and Rev. Peter Brunn- holtz, Mr. Schaum came to America, via Hamburg and London. They set out July 1, 1744, reached London, November 29, and arrived at Philadelphia, January 26, 1745. His birthplace was Geissen, Germany. His father was the schoolmaster at Muenchholzhausen. J. H. Schaum was trained at Halle and completed his studies at the university there. He was a personal friend of Dr. A. H. Francke. Immediately upon his arrival he was employed as a preacher at Philadelphia. During 1746 and 1747 he also served as deacon or catechist at Somerset (Raritan), N. J. He received very detailed instructions — to preach not over half an hour, to catechize the young, the instructions not to exceed half an hour at a time. He was also au- thorized to baptize children and to solemnize marriages. In the spring of 1748, the congregation at York being vacant, he was sent there, and remained seven years. He was ordained in 1749 at Lancaster. The service closed with the Lord's Supper. In 1755 he removed to To- hickon, serving it with several congregations in the vicinity. In 1759 he went to New Hanover, and assisted Dr. Muhlenberg every four weeks, besides preaching in his own congregations at Oley Hills, Pikeland and Upper Dublin, the latter being twenty-seven miles from his residence. Not long after his home was at Pikestown, apparently the same no The New Hanover Lutheran Church. as Pikeland. In 1763 he had taken up his residence at Weidenthal, not Whitehall, as stated by Schierenbeck. It is not known that he ever served any congregations in that section. Weidenthal (Willowdale) is now known to have been only another name for Oley Hills. Rev. D. Schumacher so designates the place where some of his baptisms were performed, and where some of the confirmations took place. In one case he says simply at Weidenthal or Oley Hills, in another at Weidenthal, alias Oleyer Gebirge. Some of the people yet living also recall the fact, that even within the memory of the present generation the plateau from Lobachsville to Hill church was known by that name. He also served Moselem, Ontelannee (although possibly this is meant for the same congregation, or for Moselem and New Bethel in Albany Township), Maxatawny, now Kutztown, and Rockland, where he finally took up his residence and died. December 4, 1750, he married Anna Eve, daughter of Balthaser Pickel, an elder of the church at Raritan. She and her only child died in 1752. August 7, 1753, he married a second time, Mary Dorothea Stumpf, Lancas- ter, Pa. During his troubles at York, Pa., he had proposed to return to Germany, but was kept from doing so by the advice of Muhlenberg and others. His troubles were probably increased by his bodily infirmities. He never re- covered his health and vigor after his exposure at Raritan during his trip to the church dedication there. Upon this occasion his first marriage occurred. It was during this trip that he was compelled to spend an entire night in the open forest during December. The bodily infirmities brought on by this exposure — we presume it would be called sciatica now — always hampered him in his work. Biographical Sketches of Ministers. 1 1 1 He died January 26, 1778, leaving a widow and six chil- dren. He was buried under the pulpit of the old church at Rockland. 14. Rev. John William Kurtz. Rev. John William Kurtz is almost universally known simply as William Kurtz. The writer himself did not know that his full name was John William until he acci- dentally came across the absolute proof of the fact. Being a younger brother of J. Nicholas Kurtz, he often went by the name of "the younger Kurtz." He came to America at the request of his older brother and with the approval of Dr. Francke. He taught school at York in 1756, and also supplied the pulpit of that congregation. In 1757 he was em- ployed by H. M. Muhlenberg as his assistant. In 1758 he was assigned to Tohickon. Here he seems to have re- mained until 1760. October 20 of that year, upon the ur- gent request of several congregations in Heidelberg (Berks and Lebanon most probably), who desired him to become their pastor, he was examined by the ministerium. No license is mentioned. Presumably, however, that was granted, although possibly it was not, as it was resolved to ordain him. The ordination took place at Lancaster in May, 1761, and he became the adjunct of his brother in the Tulpehocken parish. In 1763 he accepted a call to Earlingtown (New Holland) and Conestoga. The location of this latter point is uncertain. It might be in- tended for Robeson, or Allegheny, where there were Lu- theran congregations at the time, which for many years were connected with New Holland. But it might also be Bergstrass, or even Morgantown, Churchtown or Centre ii2 The New Hanover Lutheran Church. Church, where the Lutherans certainly held services if they did not have regularly organized congregations. In this field he remained until 1779. Possibly too, as sug- gested by the Halle Reports, Vol. I., p. 232, during the* last few years he again assisted Muhlenberg at New Hanover. In 1780 he seems to have been without con- gregations. In 178 1 he settled at Lebanon, serving it and congregations west of it, i. e., Hill Church and Bindnagel's most probably, until 1794. Rev. Snyder, pastor at Hum- melstown, says he also served that congregation, 178 1— 1795. Schierenbeck, who is probably nearer correct, makes it 1781-1799. He probably also served the Sand Hill Church, about three miles south of Hummelstown, during the greater part of this time, as well as Jonestown, which was the Swatara Church transferred to the town in 1765. He also was pastor of St. Jacob's, about two miles west of Pinegrove, from the time of its organization until 1795. In 1794 he took up his residence at Jonestown, where he died, May 27, 1799. He is buried there. He was unusually well versed in the ancient languages. It is stated that at his examination he was directed to turn to the third chapter of First Corinthians, and render it in Latin, which he did without hesitation. He was then directed to read two Psalms in Hebrew. This he did, rendering them fluently and correctly in Latin. The Swedish Provost then examined him in regard to some doctrinal points, also in Latin. All these he answered clearly and satisfactorily in the same language. It was thereupon agreed that he should be ordained at the next convention of the ministerium. Notwithstanding all this he does not seem to have been very successful as a pastor, and his later years were embit- tered by the knowledge that he was not wanted by some of Biographical Sketches of Ministers. 113 his congregations. This may possibly have been owing to the fact that he obtained his early training in the almost cloistered solitude of the orphans' home, and not among the people in the everyday walks of life. 15. Rev. Jacob Van Buskerk. This man and Rev. Christian Streit seem to have been the first two native ministers of the Lutheran Church of this country besides the sons of Muhlenberg. Both were natives of New Jersey. The statements of the Halle Re- ports indicate that Rev. Buskerk was born February 9, 1739- As his name indicates, he was of Dutch descent. Be- tween 1680 and 1690 a colony of Hollanders had settled in that vicinity, generally known as the Raritan. They soon organized a Lutheran congregation. At the present day some Lutheran churches are to be found in that section — New Germantown and German Valley. The Van Bus- kerks were among the most prominent and influential families at that early day. The father of Rev. J. Van Buskerk, residing in the vicinity of Hackinsack, was a man of considerable means. For four years the young man studied under Rev. J. Albert Weygand, who had charge of the Lutheran churches in that part of New Jersey. October 12, 1763, he was ordained by the Swedish Provost Wrangel, and became an assistant of Muhlenberg at New Hanover; Schieren- beck says, as pastor. We confess we cannot explain to our own satisfaction why this man was ordained by the Swedish Provost, when others were ordained by and before the assembled synod. He served New Hanover and acted as Rev. Miihlen- 114 The New Hanover Lutheran Church. berg's substitute at the Trappe and at Zion, generally known as Pikestown, Chester Co., until 1765. Then he was called to Germantown, where he remained until 1769. Having received a call to Macungy, he removed thither, serving Salisbury, Saccum (Saucon) and Upper Milford in connection with it. Here he remained until 1793. He purchased a large tract of land near the Macungy Church, also a tannery. A large part of it is still in the possession of some of his descendants, the Singmasters. In 1793 he resigned this charge and removed to Gwyn- edd, serving it, Whitpain and Upper Dublin. Here he bought another farm. But in 1795 he returned to Ma- cungy, Salisbury and Saucon. He however continued to serve the Gwynedd charge in connection with that at Ma- cungy. He preached in the so-called Yellow Church, just beyond the limits of the village of North Wales, on the Sunday before his death, which occurred August 5, 1800. He was but sixty-seven years, five months and twenty-six days old. He was the father of twelve children. He made a copy of the liturgy or form of service then in use with his own hands. This and an imperfect copy made by Peter Muhlenberg are said to be the only origi- nal copies in existence. 16. Rev. John Ludwig Voigt (Focht). Rev. John Ludwig Voigt was born at Mansfield, Ger- many, November 9, 1731. After a regular course of training for the ministry he was employed for a time as a teacher at Halle. He finally became inspector of the German school there. He was then examined and ordained at Wernigerode and started with Rev. Krug for America, via Holland and London, where they arrived, November 14, 1763. They landed at Philadelphia, April 1, 1764. Biographical Sketches of Ministers. 115 Rev. Voigt at once took charge of Germantown and Barren Hill. He left this field, December, 1765, and re- moved to New Hanover, and with it served the Trappe and Zion's, then known as Vincent, near Phoenixville. He seems to have remained here about twenty years. During the earlier part of his ministry here he apparently took care of the Hill Church likewise, which seems generally to have been connected with New Hanover, until about forty-five years ago. In 1786 he located at Piketown, or Zion's, and St. Peter's, not far distant. The latter congregation he had organized. He also served Pottstown, besides being Dr. Muhlenberg's substitute at the Trappe. December 28, 1800, when in his seventieth year, he died. He is buried close by the church. He was the seventh man sent from Halle to Pennsyl- vania. He preached Rev. H. M. Muhlenberg's funeral sermon. He was considerably annoyed by being charged with being a tory, having objected to unnecessary desecra- tion of his church when it was seized as a hospital. From Muhlenberg's own statements it is evident that he thought that the charge had no foundation in fact. This may be accounted for from the fact that during his pastorate at New Hanover the present church building was erected, and the same being then new he may have desired to protect its beauty as well as its sanctity, even though no longer the actual pastor of the same. 17. Rev. F. A. C. Muhlenberg. Although Frederic August Conrad Muhlenberg was equally prominent with his older brother, General Peter Muhlenberg, Jensen has no sketch of his life. The " Lu- n6 The New Hanover Lutheran Church. theran Almanac," 185 1, has a brief one and the Pennsyl- vania-German, Vol. III., No. 2, contains a very satisfac- tory one. He was born at the Trappe, Montgomery Co., January 2, 1750. After enjoying all the preparatory training which the schools of this country afforded, he and his younger brother went to Halle and spent nearly seven years at the University there. When Dr. Kunze was sent to this country, 1770, these two young men came back with him. Sprague, in saying that he was ordained be- fore his return, is plainly mistaken. In his diary he him- self tells us that he was ordained at Reading, October 25, 1770, by the Evangelical Lutheran Ministerium of Penn- sylvania then known as the Evangelical Lutheran Minis- terium of North America. Whether it originated from the same source we cannot say, but a similar mistake as to his official position prevailed. The general impression was, and seems yet to be, that he was Rev. Christian Emanual Schulze's assistant in the Tulpehocken parish. He himself tells us that he was ordained as " Collabora- tor in the United Evangelical Lutheran church in Penn- sylvania." Not only did he occupy the field three months before Schultze came into it, but he drew up the call to the latter for the church council of Christ Church and for- warded it; and preached less than half a dozen times in Rev. Schultze's field after the latter settled at Stouchs- burg. He removed to Schaefferstown less than six months after Rev. Schultze came and confined his labors to that place, Warwick, White Oak, Manheim and subsequently to Lebanon. December 20, 1773, he removed to New York and preached his introductory sermon as pastor there on the fourth Sunday in Advent. Biographical Sketches of Ministers. 117 While pastor here he took the preliminary steps for the organization of the New York Ministerium. But the beginning of hostilities made it necessary for him to leave this city. In May, 1776, he sent away his wife. In July he followed to his father's field. Here he became the as- sistant of his aged father and settled at New Hanover, taking charge of it, New Goshenhoppen and Hill Church. He also supplied Reading. In 1779 he was elected to represent Pennsylvania in the Continental Congress. He never returned to the active duties of the ministry. He was reelected. Subsequently he became justice of the peace for Skippack, Perkiomen, etc., and judge of Montgomery County. Later on he was made register and recorder of Montgomery County. He was a member of the state convention to consider the new federal constitution. He was made the presiding officer. He was also elected to the first Congress of the United States, and was elected Speaker. He was subsequently reelected several times. He likewise was made Speaker of the third Congress. Afterwards he was appointed reg- ister of the land office of Pennsylvania and located at Lan- caster. It is said that when there was a tie vote on the question of the use of German as the official language of Pennsylvania, he, as speaker, gave the casting vote in favor of English. His tombstone at Lancaster gives June 5, 1801, as the date of his death. He was therefore only a little over fifty-one years of age, a comparatively young man. He was married to Catharine Schaefer, daughter of one of the elders of the Philadelphia congregation. Six of his children survived him. He was president of the German Society of Pennsyl- vania from 1790 to 1797, and was also a trustee of the 9 n8 The New Hanover Lutheran Church. University of Pennsylvania. He was twice candidate for governor of Pennsylvania — in 1793 and 1796, but failed to be elected. 18. Rev. Gotthilf Heinrich Ernst Muhlen- berg, D.D. This was the youngest son of Dr. H. M. Muhlenberg. He was born at the Trappe, November 17, 1753. At first he attended the schools of Philadelphia. At the age of ten, together with his two brothers, he was sent to Germany to complete his studies at the University of Halle. Here he spent seven years. In 1770 he returned with his brother Frederic Augustus and Dr. Kunze. In October of the same year, at Reading, he as well as his brother, was ordained by the Evangelical Lutheran Min- isterium of North America, then the proper legal title of the synod. He immediately became the assistant of his father, as well as third pastor of the congregation at Phil- adelphia. He retained this position, residing at Philadel- phia most of the time, until the British entered the city. His ardent patriotism made it unsafe for him there, and it became necessary for him to leave. In trying to get away in disguise, he came near being betrayed by a tory inn- keeper. He joined his father's family at the Trappe, where he filled the position at New Hanover, of his older brother, who had been elected to civil office. He also supplied Hill Church (Oley) and other congregations in Berks County. After the departure of the British he seems to have re- turned to the city. In March, 1780, he became pastor of Trinity, Lancaster, as Dr. Helmuth's successor. Here he remained thirty-five years — until his death May 23, 18 15, Biographical Sketches of Ministers. 119 in the sixty-second year of his age. He died of apoplexy, as did his brothers. He was the only one of Dr. H. M. Muhlenberg's sons who made the ministry his lifework, and he seems to have been proud of it. In the minutes of synod and elsewhere, when writing his own name, he was fond of putting it — Muhlenberg, the Preacher (der Prediger). He was known as a profound theologian — was well versed in the ancient languages, acquainted with medicine, chemistry and mineralogy. He was specially eminent in botany — " one of the foremost men of his day in that science and easily the foremost botanist in America." It is related of him " that on one of his botanical excursions on the mountains, he was stopped by a footpad who de- manded his money or his life. He handed his Bible to the robber, assuring him that it was his greatest treasure." " I suspected you were a priest, and might have known you were too poor to own a cent," was the response, " and he was left in peace." He left treatises on theology, morals and botany. The last named is widely known. He also prepared an Eng- lish and German lexicon and grammar of two volumes. In 1774 he married Catharine, daughter of Philip Hall, of Philadelphia. They had two sons, Henry A., for many years pastor of Trinity, Reading, and F. A., a prominent physician at Lancaster, whose son, also named Frederic Augustus, was equally eminent as a scholar, be- ing professor at Gettysburg, first president of Muh- lenberg College and for years professor of Greek in the University of Pennsylvania. Additional sketches can be found in the " Lutheran Almanac "of 1851 ; in Schieren- beck's " Biographies of Lutheran Ministers in Pennsyl- vania;" in Jensen's "Biographies," as well as in Profes- sor Stoever's sketches in the Evangelical Review. 120 The New Hanover Lutheran Church. 19. Rev. Frederic Ernst. Little is known of this man. The Halle Reports, p. 644, state that he had studied at Strasburg, but omit all details. At the meeting of synod held in Tulpehocken, 1779, the minutes inform us that candidate Ernst's license was renewed and he was " exhorted to continue to apply himself to theological studies, and especially the ancient languages." Thus far we have failed to find an account of his first licensure as catechist. In the records of this (New Hanover) congregation we find that on Exaudi Sunday, Rev. Roeller confirmed a class of catechumens in- structed by " the catechist Fredr. Ernst." Evidently he acted as catechist and assistant in it from the time of his licensure until 1780. He was a married man, for his daughter Elizabeth was baptized here, June 18, 1780.1 But during this year he evidently removed to another field, for in 178 1 his address is Easton, and for several years thereafter Greenwich, N. J. Here he seems to have re- mained until about 1789-90. For we then find him at Maxatawny, with the Macungie congregation protesting that he should not be allowed to preach at Trexlertown and aid in establishing a congregation there. Conse- quently he left and settled at Hudson, New York. There he served congregations at " Loonenburg," Germantown, Churchtown and Livingston. During this time he also supplied Albany and for a time preached in New York city. Later on he seems to have removed to Cooperstown, whence he was called to be pastor at Elizabethtown, May- town and other congregations in Lancaster County. He preached his introductory sermon, November 28, 1802 — 1 One of his sons was the Rev. Wm. Gotthold Ernst, D.D., who was educated at Princeton, and pastor of Salem congregation, Lebanon, be- tween 30 and 40 years. He was also at one time President of Synod. Biographical Sketches of Ministers. 121 first Sunday in Advent. He died at Manheim, Novem- ber 28, 1806. He is buried at Elizabethtown, Lancas- ter County. During his administration the first large brick church was built there. 20. Rev. Christian Streit. Evidently Rev. Christian Streit was the man who suc- ceeded J. Fr. Ernst in the pastorate. This is shown by this burial record: " Mrs. An. Mar. Christina Elizabeth Streit (The Pastor's wife), August 20, 1782." Rev. Streit was born in New Jersey, June 7, 1749. He studied at the College of Philadelphia, now the University of Pennsylvania, and graduated in 1768. He pursued his theological studies under Dr. H. M. Muhlenberg. He was licensed in 1769, and ordained with the sons of Muh- lenberg in 1770. It is interesting to note that the first two native Lutheran ministers, besides the sons of Muhlen- berg, came from New Jersey. Mr. Streit immediately took charge of the congregation at Easton and labored there nearly ten years. He then became pastor of the church at Charleston, S. C. He in- troduced the use of English there. He was taken pris- oner at the sacking of Charleston and held until exchanged. He was now obliged to leave this field, and came to Vir- ginia. In July, 1782, he settled at New Hanover, where he remained until 1785. During this time he also served Hill (Oley) Church and Amityville. After this he removed to Winchester, Va., serving the congregation at that place with others in that vicinity, ex- tending over a circuit of about fifty miles. At first he preached both in German and in English. In later years he used the English language only. Here he labored 122 The New Hanover Lutheran Church. twenty-seven years. He died March 10, 1812, and was buried in front of the pulpit. He married, first, Anna Margaret Hoff, Charleston, S. C. The date of her death is given above. He married, second, Salona (Salome?) Graeff, of Philadelphia, Pa., February 19, 1783. She died in 1788. He married, third, Susan Burr, of Winchester. She survived him. By her own exertions she supported a large family, declining the offers of Christian friends to educate her children at their expense. Rev. Streit is said to have been passionately fond of music, often acting as his own organist. He is also said to have possessed a considerable degree of mechanical skill, and to have built a small organ for one of his congrega- tions. He was one of the men especially appointed by synod to train young men for the ministry. One of his granddaughters was the second wife of Dr. Charles Por- terfield Krauth. 21. Rev. Daniel Lehman. The information concerning Rev. Daniel Lehman in the Halle Reports is quite limited, and no reference is made to any connection with the congregation at New Hanover. But the congregation's record shows that he administered the Lord's Supper, June 10, 1786, May 17, 1787, Decem- ber 8, 1787, and in May, 1788. New Hanover is but eight or nine miles from Oley Hill Church, of which he was the regular pastor at the time. Rev. Lehman was born at Strassburg, April 15, 1754, came to this country from Germany about 1773. Very little is known concerning his early history. Being unable to pay his passage, he would, in all probability have been Biographical Sketches of Ministers. 123 sold to pay for it, had not Dr. Kunze advanced the amount and thus set him free. Being pretty well versed in the rudimentary branches, Dr. Kunze employed him as a teacher in his (Kunze's) seminary and at the same time gave him instruction in theology. Rev. Van Buskirk then employed him as a tutor in his family. Lehman also preached occasionally. This proved so satisfactory that some of the outlying con- gregations desired him to become their pastor. He was licensed in 1775 and ordained in 1778. After serving congregations in Lehigh County for some time, he was called to Trinity, Reading, October, 1778. Here he re- mained two years, possibly a little longer. Apparently he continued to supply Trinity about a year longer. It was evidently during his first residence at Moselem that he supplied New Hanover. In September, 1797, he was recalled to Trinity and con- tinued to serve it until April, 1801. Apparently, however, he seems to have retained some sort of connection with his former field during that time. Then he returned to Mose- lem, where he remained until his death, October 1, 18 10, at the age of fifty-six years, five months and sixteen days. He was buried in front of the pulpit in the Moselem Church. He himself tells us that during 1793 he served Mose- lem, Rockland, Kutztown, Windsor, Hamburg, Bern (i. e., St. Michael's), Braunschweig, two congregations in Albany, and Greenwich. He also served Oley Hill Church a part of the time. The Halle Reports say he also preached at Trexlertown, 1778-1784. Synod after- ward directed him to cease. Dr. Mann also declares that he served Allemaengel during his entire ministry. His characteristic was great plainness, almost bluntness 124 The New Hanover Lutheran Church. in preaching, and a strong voice, which Dr. Muhlenberg says, he " exercised very freely." 22. Rev. John Frederic Weinland. The birthplace of Rev. John Frederic Weinland was Roemhild in Franconia. During 1769-72 he studied at Halle. He was a teacher in the orphans' home. He decided to go to America, but bodily infirmities prevented. He returned home, became engaged as private tutor and preached occasionally. After repeated solicitations from Dr. J. Ludwig Schulze at Halle, he finally agreed to come to America. Ordained at Wernigerode, he came via Holland and reached Philadelphia, August 18, 1786. Elected at Ger- mantown, he served it until 1789. As early as 1787 his name appears as a member of the ministerium. In 1790 complaint was brought against him by a member of the Germantown congregation. Resting on a misunderstand- ing the matter was settled. At this time he resided at New Hanover, serving that congregation and the Trappe, and at the same time was also pastor at Amityville and Hill Church. Later, 1796-99, he served these congrega- tions again, but not the one at New Hanover. In reality he may not have been the actual pastor, but simply the assistant or substitute of Rev. Voigt. But he performed the pastoral work and on January 4, 1796, he calls himself the pastor of the congregation, " Der jetzige prediger." From 1790 to 1794 he was always present at the meet- ings of synod and took a prominent part in its transac- tions. But for some reason or other there was continued complaint against him. Whether these complaints caused loss of standing, or whether his patience gave way, we shall probably never know, but he continued to absent him- Biographical Sketches of Ministers. 125 self and finally ceased to be a member. It may be that his name was simply dropped.1 But whatever the cause, in 1803 at Baltimore he applied for restoration and again, in 1804, at Easton, where he appeared personally to ask for re-admission. But he appears to have been with- out regular congregations at this time. Although there is no statement to that effect, he seems to have been re-ad- mitted at last. He again acted as pastor at New Han- over and Trappe, and we are told by the Halle Reports that there are many entries in the records there up to 1808. The same authority states that he is buried at the Trappe. Dr. Kretschman says that " Rev. Fred. Lobrecht-Herman, Reformed minister at New Hanover, preached his funeral sermon, which took place on February 7, 1807. He lies buried in the Trappe Lutheran cemetery in a forgotten grave. Five of his children were buried in the graveyard of the Swamp Lutheran Church. His wife, Susanna, sur- vived him, and on October 1, 1807, was married to Jacob Arms at New Hanover." 23. Rev. F. W. Geissenhainer, Sr., D.D. F. W. Geissenhainer, Sr., D.D., was a son of Henry A. and Sophia J. Geissenhainer. He was born June 26, 171 1, at Muehlheim, Germany. He was but three years old when his father died. He first attended a school in his native place, of which his grandfather was the princi- pal. From his youth it was his desire to be a theologian. At the age of thirteen he entered the University of Geissen. "The complaints were brought to Synod by Bernhard Gilbert, of New- Hanover, who states, among other matters, that it is Pastor Weinland'9 fault that he was excluded from the Church Council. It is also said that " the weakness to which Weinland succumbed, and which thereby became the ground of the charges against him, was his desire for strong drink." 126 The New Hanover Lutheran Church. At sixteen he had completed his course. Afterwards he spent two years at Goettingen. He then spent a short time as docent (private teacher). He was then called to become the pastor of two country, or village churches. Jensen says he was ordained then and there. After serv- ing these congregations about eighteen months, he came to this country with his brother, Henry Anastasius, in 1793. The next year he applied to synod for admission and received a full license. As his name first appears on the roll of the ministerium as an ordained minister in L798, it is not at all probable that he was ordained before he came to this country. His wife was Anna Maria Reiter, to whom he was mar- ried on May 27, 1794. He was brother-in-law to Rev. John G. Roeller, and father-in-law to Dr. Jacob Miller, subsequently pastor of this congregation and later of Trin- ity, Reading. He served the congregation at New Han- over from 1796 to 1808 and also New Goshenhoppen, Trumbauers and Scheetz, as well as the Hill church and others during his first residence in Pennsylvania. In 1808 he removed to New York city, taking charge of the con- gregation formerly served by Dr. Kunze. Six years later, 18 14, he resigned this congregation and took up his residence at Karthaus, Clearfield County, Penn- sylvania. He was interested in a land company, for the development of coal lands in that vicinity. During his residence here he looked after the spiritual interests of the Germans of this section. In April, 18 18, he returned to the eastern part of the state, settling in Chester County, where he assisted his son Frederic William, who was pastor at Zion's, Vincent Township, and St. Peter's, Pikeland. When his brother Henry A. gave up the congregations at the Trappe and Limerick to go to Pittsburg, they were Biographical Sketches of Ministers. 127 united with the son's parish. Then father and son served the four congregations. In April, 1823, he returned to his former congregation in New York, serving it until his death, May 27, 1838, "being exactly not only to the day of the month, but to the very hour of the day, forty-four years after his marriage. He was within less than a month of sixty-six years of age " (Jensen fr. Sprague). The title D.D. was conferred on him by the University of Pennsylvania. He prepared a number of young men for the ministry. Among these were his brother Henry A., John G. Roeller, subsequently married to his wife's sister, Dr. Jacob Miller, Fredr. Waage, (Bishop) Schwei- zerbarth, E. L. Braunsius, W. J. Eyer, Marcus Harpel, C. F. Welden, Fr. Miller, L. Schmidt, his own son, F. W. Geissenhainer,jr.,and his nephew, Rev. A. F. Geissenhainer. 24. Rev. Jacob Miller, D.D. Dr. Miller was the son of John Jacob and Hannah Miller. He was born in Goshenhoppen, Montgomery Co., Pa., December 11, 1788, and was confirmed by Dr. F. W. Geissenhainer, Sr., and studied under him for five years. After Dr. Geissenhainer's resignation and re- moval to New York, Mr. Miller entered the seminary in charge of Revs. Helmuth and Schmidt at Philadelphia, and there continued his studies. Having received a call in 1809 to become the pastor of Falckner Swamp (New Hanover), Goshenhoppen and Boyer's — apparently Boyertown — also of the Hill Church, and perhaps some other congregations, he commenced to preach. Upon the advice of the professors he agreed to preach every four weeks. It is not made quite clear whether this applied only to New Hanover or to the whole 128 The New Hanover Lutheran Church. field. Before the close of the year the call was renewed. Having been licensed in the meanwhile, he accepted the call. He remained in charge of this field a little more than twenty years, until succeeded by his brother Conrad Miller. Upon the resignation of Dr. H. A. Muhlenberg, Dr. Miller received a call to Trinity, Reading. At first he declined it. It was renewed and he came to Reading in May, 1829. In connection with Trinity he also served Sinking Spring, Alsace, Spiess and Schwarzwald, preach- ing in the country churches in the afternoon. Here he re- mained twenty-one years — until his death, May 16, 1850. The title of D.D. was conferred on him by the University of Pennsylvania in 1838. On March 22, 18 13, he married Anna Maria, the daughter of Dr. Geissenhainer. They had three sons and one daughter. The sons were all preparing for the minis- try, but their early death prevented them from entering it. The daughter became the wife of John Endlich, Esq., prominent in the history of the Lutheran Church of Read- ing. She was the mother of Hon. G. A. Endlich, now president judge of Berks County. She died quite recently. It is said that in personal appearance Dr. Miller bore a striking resemblance to Daniel Webster. He served a full term of three years as secretary of the synod, also a term of three years as its president. (From Sprague's " Annals " as quoted by Jensen.) 25. Rev. Conrad Miller. Rev. Conrad Miller was born in Upper Hanover Town- ship, Montgomery County, Pa., March 14, 1798. He studied under his brother, Dr. Jacob Miller, pastor of the Biographical Sketches of Ministers. 129 Swamp charge at the time. At the meeting of synod in 1 818 he was examined and received a regular candidate's license, having, at the beginning of the year, secured ad interim license, but only as a catechist. He was ordained a deacon at Lancaster, 1820. At first he had charge of New Store (Amityville) , Longswamp and the Hill Church only. Later on he suc- ceeded his brother as pastor of the New Hanover charge, serving New Hanover, Boyertown, Hill, Sassaman's and Keeler's. For a time he also served Christ (Oley) , Mose- lem, Huff's, Limerick and Pottstown. He took up his residence at Oley in 1825, either in the vicinity of the Oley Church, or at Friedensburg, and remained there until his brother, Dr. J. Miller, was called to Reading. He then moved to New Hanover. He preached his first as well as his last sermon at the Hill Church, which he served a little more than thirty-four years. October 9, 1852, he died of typhoid fever, aged fifty-four years six months and twenty-five days. Dr. Demme preached his funeral sermon. His widow sur- vived him many years, having died at Pottstown in Nov- ember, 1887, at the age of ninety-six years, one month and nine days. He was secretary of synod from 1832 to 1835 inclusive; secretary of the Missionary Society in 1838 and 39, and president of the synod 1841-44. He published a series of questions and answers for catechumens, which charac- terized his industry and zeal for the Christian instruction of the young as well as his conception of the doctrines of the church as he understood them. He possessed a strik- ing personality, was a popular preacher, and greatly be- loved by his parishioners. 130 The New Hanover Lutheran Church. 26. Rev. Nathan Jaeger. Rev. Jaeger was born in Bucks County, March 20, 1820. He was a student in the preparatory department of Pennsylvania College, Gettysburg, 1839-41. He then took up the study of theology under Rev. J. P. Hecht, Easton. Together with Augustus Bergner, Peter L. Oberfeld and J. C. Schmidt, he was licensed by the ministerium of Pennsylvania at Pottstown, June 5, 1844. The former two passed away more than half a century ago. The last named died last year, only a month less than eighty- five years of age. He immediately took charge of Orwigsburg, Sommer- berg, Friedensburg, Klein-Schuylkill, Zion and McKeans- burg, Schuylkill Co., Pa. He was ordained at Orwigs- burg, June 10, 1846. December, 185 1, he took charge of Lykens Valley parish, then consisting of St. John's, Elizabethville, Huber's, Fetterhoff's, Miller's, Bear Gap, Uniontown and Stone Valley. Here he remained only one year. The following year he took charge of New Hanover, Boyertown, Sassaman's, Keeler's, Hill Church, etc. Then, in October, 1857, he removed to Bethlehem, taking charge of William's, Eckley, White Haven and Rockport. This field he occupied until i860. That same year he took up his residence at Mt. Bethel, serving that congregation and Flicksville in Northampton County, to- gether with Ross and Chestnut Hill in Monroe County. In March, 1863, he accepted a call to the congregation at Riegelsville, hitherto connected with the East Pennsyl- vania Synod. January 2, 1864, his horse having taken fright at a train on the railroad, he was thrown out of the vehicle and fatally injured. He died almost instantly. Biographical Sketches of Ministers. 131 He left a widow, the daughter of Rev. Henry S. Miller, with eight children. In later years he was rather deeply involved in secular affairs. He was not successful in business. This led to failure, scandal and an investigation. Although cleared of intentional wrongdoing, he was censured for embark- ing in those worldly enterprises. While at New Hanover misunderstandings arose between him and his people which were of a serious nature; the trouble was finally settled in court. The chapter on the transactions of the church council explains this more fully. Rev. Jaeger, however, is said to have been a man of good parts. He was a good preacher, and an excellent catechist; surviving catechumens instructed by him, still praise his superior tact and ability in this direction. 27. Rev. H. Wendt. Henry Wendt was a native of Germany. He entered the ministry in 185 1. He was sent to Texas as a mis- sionary from the institution at Basle, together with a num- ber of others. In 1858 he came to Pennsylvania and took, charge of the Swamp or New Hanover parish, still con- sisting of New Hanover, Keeler's, Boyertown, Hill church and Sassamansville. After a few years he gave up Hill Church and Sassamansville and took charge of Pennsburg instead, serving it only a short time. He also served Emanuel's at Pottstown a part of the time, if not all the time. He remained in this field until the close of 1864 or the beginning of 1865. He then became superinten- dent of the orphans' home at Germantown. But as stated by the president of synod in his annual report, "in July (1867) strange and shocking reports concerning his conduct as superintendent of the home had 132 The New Hanover Lutheran Church. reached that officer, and the accused himself had called upon him and confessed wrongdoing . . . but denied the gravest and worst charges." After a full investigation of the affair, the president proclaimed his suspension in the church papers. The board of managers then had him arrested. He was tried at Philadelphia, found guilty and sentenced to imprisonment for a number of years. What became of him afterwards is not known. There were rumors that at the expiration of his term he returned to his native land. It certainly was a sad ending of a promising career. The man certainly was gifted. 28. Rev. Abraham H. Groh. Abraham H. Groh was the son of Henry and Mary Groh, residing about two miles west of Myerstown, Leba- non Co., Pa. He was born June, 1838. The days of his boyhood were spent on his father's farm. He entered the preparatory department of Pennsylvania College in the fall of 1855, when but seventeen years of age. He grad- uated in i860. He took a full course at the theological seminary at Gettysburg. He was examined and ordained by the Ministerium of Pennsylvania at Allentown, June 18, 1862. His father having become paralyzed, and during the last years of his life was absolutely helpless, he spent the first year at home, taking care of his invalid father. In July, 1863, he took charge of four congregations in what is known as Long Valley, Monroe County. A short time before the meeting of synod in 1865 he had accepted a call from New Hanover, Keeler's, Boyer- town and Emanuel's, Pottstown. His health was already failing, and he was the pastor of these congregations for less than a year. He was hardly able to serve so large a charge. He had been attacked by galloping consumption. Biographical Sketches of Ministers. 133 He was only a little more than twenty-seven years old when he died. He was never married. As a preacher he ranked high, was very enthusiastic and gave promise for great usefulness in the church. 29. Rev. Leonard Groh, D.D. Rev. L. Groh's parents, grandparents and great-grand- parents, were all born in Lebanon, formerly Lancaster County. He was born August 18, 183$, at Schaeffers- town, Lebanon Co., Pa. His parents were Abraham Groh and Sarah, nee Strickler. After attending the com- mon schools, he entered the preparatory department of Pennsylvania College, 1856, and graduated in 1861. He entered the seminary at Gettysburg in the fall of the same year and was ordained by the ministerium of Pennsylvania, June 3, 1863, in St. John's Church, Reading. Soon there- after he became pastor of Quakertown, Bucks County, where he remained from 1863 to 1866. While his cousin, Rev. A. H. Groh, was an invalid he supplied his charge at New Hanover, Montgomery Co. After the death of Rev. A. H. Groh he was elected, April, 1866, as his successor, and on December 9 of that year he moved to New Hanover and had charge of it together with Boyertown from 1866 to 1886. Then he resigned the New Hanover congregation, and served St. John's (Boyer- town) alone from 1886 to 91. He removed from New Hanover to Boyertown in 1 87 1 . He then moved west and was pastor at Lincoln, Nebraska, from May 17, 1891, till 1895, and of St. Marks, Omaha from 1895 until now. From 1869 to 1876 he was a member of the board of trustees of Muhlenberg College, also president of the Third District Conference, 1885-88. He travelled ex- tensively in Europe and in Palestine. He received the 134 The New Hanover Lutheran Church. title D.D. from Susquehanna University in 1901. He is proud of the fact that he was baptized by Rev. Wm. Beates, long the senior of the ministerium; also that twelve or thirteen young men confirmed by him have en- tered the ministry; also that the first bequest for the or- phans' home subsequently located at Topton, came from St. John's, Boyertown, and was the probable cause of its establishment. April 4, 1870, he married Martha Schryock Hicks. She died in June, 1878, leaving him with three children. The oldest is a missionary in Honduras. In February, 1880, he married Hettie Hicks, sister of his first wife, who died in July, 1886. He married Amelia Saeger as his third wife, who accompanied him to his western home, where he is actively engaged in the Master's kingdom. 30. Rev. John Jacob Kline. Rev. J. J. Kline, the present pastor of the congrega- tion, was born at Rehrersburg, Pa., September 17, 1856. He is a son of Jacob E. and Catharine (Zartman) Kline. His father was the organist and school teacher there for many years. Palatinate College afforded him the opportunity for preparatory training for college from 1876 to 80. He entered the sophomore class at Muhlenberg College in the latter year and graduated June 28, 1883. The same year he entered the Lutheran Theological Seminary at Philadel- phia and graduated from it, June 15, 1886. On the twenty-second of that month he was ordained by the Ministerium of Pennsylvania in Christ Church, Easton, Pa. Immediately thereafter he took charge of this con- gregation as its pastor. During August of that year, Christ Church (Huber's), Niantic, Pa., was added to the Biographical Sketches df Ministers. 135 charge. This congregation he served for nineteen years. He organized Trinity Lutheran congregation, Bechtels- ville, Pa., and supplied it for twenty-three years. In 1896 he organized Grace Lutheran congregation of Pottstown, Pa., which, with the New Hanover Congregation forms the present pastorate. ( 1 ) Rev. Andreas Rudman. It is now proposed to add sketches of the lives of a number of men whose relation to this congregation is some- what in doubt. That some of them acted as pastor, or as supply, or sub- stitute, cannot be questioned. Some of them may have been ordained min- isters. The position of others cannot be decided. It is also a matter of grave doubt whether some of them ever sustained any closer relation than that of a neighbor- ing pastor, or a member of synod coming in to fill a few appointments, or on a special occasion administering the Lord's Supper, when the congregation was without a regular pastor. The first of these men is Andrew Rudman, a Swede. He certainly visited this section, and almost as certainly held services here occasionally. For why should the Falckners try to become acquainted with the Swedish lan- guage, and why should Rudman try to become acquainted with the German, if theirs was only a casual meeting? But if they were cooperating in trying to found and build up a congregation, and if the Falckners attended Rud- man's services at Molatton, less than ten miles distant, so that the people might understand that they were 136 The New Hanover Lutheran Church. laboring for one and the same church, and for the estab- lishment of the same faith, the matter becomes quite plain. We are therefore clearly of the opinion that Rudman visited these people occasionally and used all his influence as a pastor to bring them together into a German congrega- tion, while the Falckners exerted their influence for him among the Swedes. Rev. Andrew Rudman was the first Swedish pastor, as far as known, at Molatton. He was one of the three — Rudman, Bjorck and Sandel — who ordained Justus Falck- ner in the Wicaco (Gloria Dei) Church, Philadelphia, 1703, the latter then going to New York to become pastor there. Falckner was sent as a substitute for Rudman, who had himself served New York and Albany several years, from 1702 to 1704, or possibly a little longer. As early as 1701 Rudman and others had been author- ized to take up ten thousand acres of land, virtually the whole of Amity Township. He was a native of Gestricia in Noorland. He was not very vigorous physically, in fact was almost an invalid. He was sent over with Erik Bjorck (Bjoerk) and Jonas Auren. They reached Phila- delphia in the summer of 1697, having landed in the south and come north overland, via Maryland. He was the provost or superintendent. He visited Molatton several times a year, during the earlier years, but later he sent his assistant to look after the congre- gation there. This congregation was also known as Man- atawny or Manathanim. Rudman was one of the four Swedish pastors who warned the congregation at Hacken- sack against the acceptance of von Dieren. He is also credited with the founding of the Lutheran congregation at Lunenberg, now Athens, New York. Advancement had been promised him in his native coun- Biographical Sketches of Ministers. 137 try and he had received permission to return to Sweden, but after leaving Wicaco he tarried some time in New York. He then returned to Pennsylvania, took charge of an Episcopal congregation at Oxford and served it, to- gether with a congregation in Philadelphia, until his death, September 17, 1708. (2) Rev. Justus Falckner. We give a sketch of this man's life, not because he was pastor of this congregation, for we do not think that he ever sustained that relation to it, but because for two hundred years or more tradi- tion has linked his name with it. That tradition is repeated as sober history in the statement of the Halle Reports that he was ordained specifically to be its pastor. How a statement of that kind obtained currency among those who were sup- posed to have thoroughly traced events and facts to their sources, we cannot understand. The recital of the inci- dents of this man's life will show plainly that Dominie Justus Falckner removed to New York less than ten days after his ordination and never returned; in fact, that he was ordained for that purpose, i. e., to be the pastor of congregations in New York. Those congregations he served faithfully to the end of his days. Taking the statement credited to Dr. J. C. Kunzman in " Lutherans in all Lands," which is substantially a repetition of Dr. Sachse's declarations, as correct, Justus Falckner was not only the first Lutheran minister ordained 138 The New Hanover Lutheran Church. in this country, but the first Protestant minister ordained in the western world. This would show that this congre- gation is not only the oldest German Lutheran Congrega- tion in North America, but that it occupies the unique dis- tinction of being the first Protestant Church in that terri- tory to send forth from it a man to bring the tidings of salvation through Christ to others. Although not a pastor here, there seems to be no question whatever that he held his membership in this congregation and that as a student under his brother, in accordance with the customs then prevalent, he frequently preached for his brother. This fact itself may have given rise to the tradition that he had charge of the congregation. At that time the distinc- tion between services held by a " substitute " and those held by the regular pastor was not so marked as it is now. For the date of his birth, the place of his nativity, his parents and his early training we refer to the sketch of his older brother Daniel Falckner. When that brother made his well-known trip to Europe, his younger brother Justus, then a student, accompanied him upon his return. Per- haps it might seem to be taking too much for granted to assert that Justus Falckner came to this country in anticipa- tion of the call and ordination which subsequently came to him, but it is certain that he came with his brother when returning from his European trip, as a theological stu- dent, i. e., as one who expected to become a minister. Knowing this fact, as well as the additional fact that both the Falckners were on friendly terms with Rev. Rudman, while the latter was pastor at Molatton, and unquestion- ably repeatedly visited New Hanover, we can readily understand why Rudman looked to this place for a man to become pastor of the New York churches, in which he took so deep an interest. We can also easily under- Biographical Sketches of Ministers. 139 stand why he (Rudman) was so earnest in urging Justus Falckner to accept that call. He evidently knew Falck- ner as a man of earnest piety, of scholarly attainments, and of noble character. He therefore urged him most earnestly to take up the work of a pastor among those people. It will not be necessary to quote even a part of the appeal which Rudman made to induce Justus Falckner to accept the call to this field, nor even to present an abstract of the letter in which Rudman, by an appeal to every motive which could induce an honest, God-fearing man to regard it as his duty to accept the call as coming directly from the Lord himself, tried to induce Justus Falckner to give heed to the call. Justus Falckner's stand- ing in the community may be judged by the fact that he had at one time been a burgess of Germantown. In response to this urgent call (to New York) Jus- tus Falckner consented to be ordained by the three Swed- ish pastors. It might be worth our while to note that in this act of ordination the three nationalities — Swedish, German and Dutch — took an active part. The three Swedes, Rev. Andreas Sandel, Rev. Erick Biorck and Rev. Andrew Rudman, the latter acting as vice bishop, by au- thority of the Swedish Bishops, performed the ordination. The German Mystics headed by Magister Kelpius took part in the rendering of the service, and the candidate was from out the German congregation. The call to Justus Falckner, in response to which the whole service was undertaken, had been extended by the Dutch. "The Ger- mans had come down from the Wissahickon to give eclat to the elevation of one of their number as a presbyter in the Lutheran Church." The Dutch had sent their earnest call to send a man to labor in the Lord's vineyard. The 140 The New Hanover Lutheran Church. Swedes invested with authority from the home church, in its name, and in the name of the whole Lutheran Church, sent him forth as an accredited embassador of Christ. Dr. Sachse, therefore, very appropriately remarks " Wednesday, November 24, 1703, marks the date of the most noteworthy religious service ever held within the consecrated walls of the old Swedish Lutheran Church, Gloria Dei, at Wicacoa, in Philadelphia." He might justly have added that it was one of the most noteworthy in the history of the Christian Church of this country, it being the first ordination of a man from a congregation here to be a minister of Christ. Dr. Sachse fittingly adds : The historic importance of this occasion will become even more apparent, when we recall the fact that this was the first regular ordination of an orthodox clergyman in Pennsylvania, if not in the western world, of which we have any authoritative record. This is essentially the same as Dr. Kunzman's statement. Dr. Sachse also says : The name, history and story of this humble German Pietist, Justus Falckner, the first of the many saintly men to come to this Province from the Halle institutions, is still kept in bright remem- brance, and the story of his life and labors furnishes one of the brightest pages in the religious history of New York and Penn- sylvania, which are now the two greatest commonwealths in the American Union. We will not repeat the detailed description of the ordi- nation service. That is fully given by Sachse in Chapter VI., " Justus Falckner, Mystic and Scholar." In sum- ming up the result of the man's labors, Sachse adds : Biographical Sketches of Ministers. 141 The reader may ask: Did the newly ordained pastor keep his sacred ordination vows? This the sequel of our sketch will show. It may, however, be permitted here to say without anticipation, that no more active, disinterested and pious clergyman ever labored among the Germans and Dutch during the trying colonial period than this same Justus Falckner. Dominie Falckner at once made preparations to enter upon his new field of labor. He arrived in New York city on Thursday, the second of December, or just eight days after his ordination. After preaching on the third and fourth Sundays in Advent, he was accepted as their regular pastor by the oldest Lutheran congrega- tion in America. It is possible that he may have preached his first sermon as an ordained minister at New Hanover on Sunday, Nov- ember 28, and this would also have been his farewell ser- mon to his native congregation. His parish extended from New York to Albany and afterward to all the German congregations along the Hudson and in East Jersey. It might also be in place to add that Dr. Sachse asserts very emphatically that the old- est systematic Lutheran Church record in America was made by Rev. Justus Falckner. Under date May 26, 17 17, it is recorded that " on Ro- gate Sunday, he was joined in holy matrimony to Gerritge Hardick, a native of Albany County, New York." His last baptism was recorded September 4, 1723. Rev. Knoll has made a memorandum in the records of the Lu- theran Church at Newburgh: " Pastor Justus Falckner, deceased, Anno 1723." He therefore labored in this field for twenty years. He never labored in any other. The circumstances, date and place of his death and burial are not known. 142 The New Hanover Lutheran Church. (3) Rev. Andreas Sandell. Rev. Sandell is one of the men concern- ing whose relation to this congregation there is no very definite information. About the only thing that is positively known is that he visited the place and found a congregation there, in charge of Rev. Daniel Falckner, in 1704. He speaks of the matter in such a way that we might readily come to the conclusion that the congrega- tion had existed for some time. While there is no positive information to that effect, all the circumstances seem to indicate that he looked after the affairs of the congregation from the time of Rev. Daniel Falckner's removal to New Jersey until the time when Rev. Gerhard Henckel became the pastor here. His parish, Molatton, was not more than ten miles distant, and there was such a friendly feeling and relation between these people, the Germans at New Hanover and their Swedish neighbors, that we should naturally expect that if the former were without a regular pastor the latter would interest themselves in their behalf, just as in later years, when the Swedes were without regular pastors, the Germans interested themselves in their behalf., We know that Revs. Hesselius and Gabriel Falk did so, and we think it would be a safe conclusion to suppose that Rev. Sandell had done the same. Rev. Andrew Sandell was the immediate successor of Rev. Rudman as pastor and superintendent of the Swedish Churches. We are told that, " he entered upon his duties March 29, 1702, was very active and energetic and brought about a more stable organization of the congre- Biographical Sketches of Ministers. H3 gation." June 25, 17 19, he set out upon his return to Sweden. At first he was Rev. Rudman's assistant, and then he became his successor as superintendent. During his pas- torate at Wicaco he also looked after the spiritual interests of the congregation at Molatton, which seems to have been treated as a mission or chapel of the parent church. Apparently he also cared for New Hanover during this time. He would seem to have had the care of Wicaco, Molat- ton, Neshiminy and other points from 1702 to 17 19. Ap- parently, however, the up country churches had to be satis- fied with such limited services as he could give them. If there is an account of his position and activities sub- sequent to his return to Sweden, we have failed to find it anywhere. (4) Rev. John Caspar Stoever, the Elder. nenronroroiBro Tnere are °nly a ^ew things concerning the first five years of this man's residence in America that are clearly established. The first is that he arrived at Philadelphia in the ship "Goodwill," September n, 1728. He had entered his own name as missionaire (mis- sionary), and that of his son as Theol. Stud., a theological student. The next is that he almost certainly settled somewhere in Pennsylvania and remained there until he was called to be the pastor of a German congregation in Virginia. mum umiiiiifiiii 11 uiu mum si-B^iii id UEQ I.

The Halle Reports imply, although not stating so ex- plicitly, that the younger Stoever at once made his home at the Conestoga, near New Holland. Is it not natural to conclude that when a father and a son, the son being still in his minority, settled in a particular place, it was the father who settled there? We therefore think it should be plain to everyone that the John Casper Stoever that settled there at that time was the " Missionnaire" and not the Stud. Theol. Possibly we might be met with the objection that he performed so many baptisms from 1727 on. But by whom were they performed, by the boy of nineteen to twenty years of age, or by the ordained minister? Where is the evidence that these early bap- tisms, or any of those occurring the first five years of their stay, were performed by the younger man? While it may be true that the younger John Caspar Stoever was not overstrict in the observance of church reg- ulations, still it would be a very bold thing to assert that he travelled all through the country, baptizing without license and without being ordained, for almost five years. It seems to be far more natural to suppose that most of these early baptisms, if not all of them, were performed by the elder Stoever, as he was an ordained minister. The younger man would hardly have under- taken it. But the fact stated by Dr. Schmauk, that their handwriting is so nearly alike as not to be readily distinguishable, would give the color of reasonable prob- ability to this opinion.1 Over and above all this, the statement of the younger Stoever in a number of his 1 Since this was written the original German will of the elder Stoever has been examined very carefully and there is certainly a very striking resemblance in the handwriting, especially in the formation of pp. final s and final e, which are altogether unique in both cases. Biographical Sketches of Ministers. 145 records, fairly implies that some of the entries may not have been his own acts. Some of the baptisms, as shown by the records, were performed on the ocean. Now a boy or young man a little over twenty years of age would almost certainly not perform them while his own father, an ordained minister at that, was present to perform the office. Should the question be raised as to why the elder Stoever did not take all these records along, it would seem to be a sufficient answer to say : they belonged to these con- gregations, and it would have been worse than useless to carry them to Virginia. More than this, the son became the father's successor in this field. It is plainly implied in the statements of the Halle Reports, and the statement seems to be correct, that steps looking to the organization of congregations here were taken before the younger man married and settled here. We are very much inclined to think that when the younger Stoever was ordained, it was more with a view to being in a position to build up a charge for himself in this section than to supply the congregations served by Rev. John Christian Schulze. A supposition of this kind certainly would explain fairly well the difficulty oc- casioned by the fact that there is so little evidence that the younger John Casper Stoever acted as the regular pas- tor of these congregations, New Hanover, Trappe, Ger- mantown and Philadelphia for any length of time. In addition to all this there is the added fact that in a few months — almost certainly not more than three — after his ordination, and apparently very shortly after his father's removal to Virginia, he took up his residence where his father has had his home. In a note on John Caspar Stoever, Sr., found among documents in possession of the late Dr. F. J. F. Schantz, 146 The New Hanover Lutheran Church. there is a sketch of his life by a certain A. G. Grinnan. In that it is stated that J. C. Stoever, of Virginia, was twice married and had issue by both wives. According to the son's statement his mother's first name was Gertrude. Ac- cording to Mr. Grinnan's statement the second wife's given name was Mary Magdalene. According to the same au- thority his estate was divided among five children, John Caspar Stoever, pastor of Lutheran churches in Pennsyl- vania, Elizabeth, Philip Stoever, — Stoever and Mary Magdalene. The will is among the court records at Phil- adelphia, and a copy is filed at Charlotteville, Va. Mr. Grinnan also describes Rev. Stoever's collecting tour in Germany, with its varied experiences. He also claims for him that he was an accomplished linguist. Dur- ing his collecting trip, at Dantzig he met Rev. Klugh, who afterwards became his successor as pastor in Vir- ginia. But the man took sick on the ocean on his return trip from London to Virginia. He had secured a " number of valuable donations for his church, e. g., 300 panes of cut glass,1 300 pounds of putty," etc. He advised his son living in Pennsylvania, To write to the minister of Prince Darmstadt's Court to send a new minister over, and to do his best to keep up other corre- spondence spiritual and temporal in Germany, that they may send over other collection money, which was to be expected from friends in the old country. Rev. Stoever desired his son to send for three of the church wardens of the Lutheran Church to come to his home in Penn- sylvania, at Conestoga, and to keep Michael Schmidt there, until they came, and with his aid to divide properly all money, books, goods and plate ... to the satisfaction of the wardens. *The will says ioo. Biographical Sketches of Ministers. 147 It seems a sum was left over, which began the endow- ment of the church. It almost seems as if the man had also made collections for the benefit of his son's churches in Pennsylvania. We have introduced many of these matters not so much because they belong directly to the history of this congre- gation, as to indicate that much information which has not been used is available in regard to both of these men. This information would throw much light on the history of those early days. But we have introduced enough to show that the records at Philadelphia plainly prove that the two Stoevers were father and son, and that their names are so entered upon the public documents. The facts also seem to indicate that there is not only a possi- bility, but a strong probability that the elder Stoever first took, up his abode at Conestoga, his son — a minor, re- siding with him. They also seem to show that there is at least a fair probability that the younger Stoever was or- dained with the consent, if not at the request of his father, to be his successor in that field, in view of the father's change of residence. Last of all, the statements and facts known would indicate that as soon as the father had va- cated the field the son moved in and occupied it, taking his place and continuing the work which the father had com- menced. It looks very much as if many, if not nearly all, the baptisms performed prior to 1733, were those of the father and not those of the son. Possibly the dis- covery of additional facts may some day throw more light on the subject. If allowed to construct an itinerary and " cursum Vitae " of the two Stoevers, we would present the following : Dur- ing the winter of 1727-8, or, more probably, in the follow- ing spring, Rev. John Caspar Stoever, Sr., with his 148 The New Hanover Lutheran Church. family, including his oldest son, the father's namesake, who was now twenty years of age and a student of theology, set out for America. September 11, 1728, they landed at Philadelphia. The father, taking his entire family with him, settled at Conestoga, near New Holland. Having come to this country with the evident purpose of preaching the gospel, and building up con- gregations, he preached and performed ministerial acts wherever opportunity offered, at the Trappe, at Phila- delphia, at New Hanover, at Moselem, at Oley Hills, Dorm (Durham) Furnace and various other points, ex- tending through Maryland into Virginia. He also endeavored to gather and organize Lutheran congrega- tions in the more sparsely settled sections in the interior, where he made his home, at New Holland, Lancaster, Muddy Creek, Little Tulpehocken, Hill and other points. While the father was thus engaged, the son still pursued his studies and probably rendered his father whatever assistance he could as a student. The son applied to the Swedes for ordination, but for some reason or other, pos- sibly because he was not a university student, and possibly because he had only his father's recommendation, they seemed to doubt his fitness. He also applied to Rev. Dan- iel Falckner, who likewise declined to ordain him. We can readily see reasons other than a question as to personal fitness or capacity for this refusal. But now circumstances became different. Rev. John Caspar Stoever, the father, receives a call to Virginia, and this whole territory will be without the services of a Ger- man pastor. Rev. John Christian Schultze is about to go to Europe to collect funds for his congregations, and also to interest the German people in their brethren in the faith living in this country. The whole German popula- Biographical Sketches of Ministers. 149 tion will then be without the services of a Lutheran minis- ter. That state of things could not and would not be sat- isfactory. The two men conclude that the remedy lies in the ordination of this young man who is now twenty-five years of age, and supposed to be able to take care of him- self and to look after the interests of the church. Pri- marily he was to be the pastor of Muddy Creek, New Holland, Lancaster, Hill, Tulpehocken, etc., But being the only ordained German minister in Pennsylvania he was to look after and care for the churches which Schultze left without any pastor and which the elder Stoever had evidently served before. That he did visit and look after these churches as often as circumstances would permit, is, we think, not questioned. That he did not reside among them is also known; for soon after his ordination, he re- moved to the more distant field and had his home there until his removal to Lebanon about 1760. As to the time, place and circumstances of his ordination we need not say much. He himself tells us that it oc- curred April 8, 1733, about the time his father left for Virginia. The place he does not mention, but he does say that his marriage took place in connection with the or- dination service. Now what would be more natural than that the son should be ordained and married in the father's presence at or near his home? And there is really no ground for any other supposition than the statement of the bitterly partisan missive called the " Confusion von Tulpe- hocken," which seems to have been issued with the sole purpose of maligning Stoever's character. Muddy Creek is almost certainly the oldest of all those churches, and unless we are greatly mistaken it was the principal congregation at the time. It was here that Schultze baptized children during April, 1733. Would 150 The New Hanover Lutheran Church. Schultze have come all that distance less than a week before their own pastor was ordained? What business had he to do it after that? The son now settled at Conestoga : according to all the evidence the very place the father had occupied. The father spent five years with his congregation in Vir- ginia. Then he set out on his collecting tour to Europe, whence he never returned to his people. After his ordina- tion the young man undoubtedly visited his father a num- ber of times in his far distant home. This is shown by the record of baptisms performed at Monocacy, Opequan and points further south. He evidently also made a num- ber of trips in that direction after his father's death in 1738. The remainder of their history, especially that of the younger man, is elsewhere given. It might further be added that the will of John Caspar Stoever of Vir- ginia, of which we append a copy in a note, appointing his " beloved son John Caspar Stoever of Conestoga " his ex- ecutor, also declares that he expected his son to succeed him as pastor of the church in Virginia. Why this did not happen is not recorded.1 1 Copy of the Will of John Caspar Stoever, dec'd. In the Name of the Holy Trinity, Amen.

As this sketch will show his was a very checkered career. He was born October 18, 1724, near Cronstadt, Siebenbiirgen. His father and his grandfather both were ministers. The latter attained the age of ninety, and being blind, obtained his education by hear- ing others read. His grandfather was also named Lucas. His mother, Justina, was a minister's daughter. The father died when Lucas was about ten years old. His maternal grandfather suffered greatly during the Hun- garian dynastic struggles. Lucas was sent to school when only three years old. Afterwards he attended the gym- the finishing of the collections on such long and very dangerous journeys for our faithful sincerity should enjoy.

In 1743 it had been agreed upon that he should attend the university at Halle, but instead of that he was sent to the gymnasium at Presburg.

Apparently of an unstable disposition, and infected by the martial spirit of the times, after wandering around, he high Lords, both spiritual and temporal, as from other great merchants, our full and abundant confidence was further confirmed, that the great God would prosper our collections so far, that constantly two ministers without the least charge to the congregation could (have) been main- tained and, likewise, a church and other unto the worship of God neces- sary buildings would (have) been erected. This mentioned is not said with the least intent (that), we either have (we or) Michael Schmidt would draw that part or share due to Michael Holdt (wh. was Michl Holdt's), during the time he has been with us to our use: but we find it requisite in our conscience to consider it in the Lord, whether not such ought to be restored to the congregation as to whom chiefly it is a great detriment, of his mischiefs (tricks) acted to the great loss of the con- gregation can issue an oath to be assured by Michael Schmidt, a man of a good conscience, and when I this should confirm with my death, I hope credit will be given to my words as also to the correspondency held with Master Ziegenhagen.

Finding no way of supporting himself there, he was kindly cared for by a casual friend. He finally reached the University of Jena, where he spent two years, his family aiding him. Then he went to Nord- hausen and had his usual experience — out of funds and without friends. He then found his way to Amsterdam, the Latin tongue, belonging to the sums received. Then make in the presence of the church-wardens according to the agreement the portions belonging both to the congregation, to me, also to Michael Schmidt, and let everyone of the church-wardens have two shillings Virginia currency per diem out of the church portion. Thou canst also certify the whole congregation in Virginia, that if they would elect some members to see the collect affairs settled, they might have liberty though without charges to the congregation. Send also letters along to my wife and children, be- cause thou hast likewise full orders, what thee shouldst distribute for a patrimony to herself and to all my children that they may come together with the church-wardens. There is in ready money four sealed packets, each of it containing 200 Pistoles, amounts to eight hundred pistoles, — when therefore the contingent of the congregation is accounted, then ought that, what I and Michael Schmidt have laid out for the congrega- tion, unto us be restituted: It is further to consider that from the for the congregation collected books, as likewise from a silver cup and small plate thereon we ought to have our share also; I did send from Ham- bourg unto John Henning Carstens of London a great chest full of books, therein was contained volumes of Luther's Works written in Wittenberg, one volume more I bought to it, but the last volume I could not get to buy. A great many books was in it for the congregation, for my use was in it Speneri consilia in three volumes, many new books unbound as to wit, Paffy (Paff's?) great (large) Bible, an Hebrew Dictionary, Buddai (Buddai's) Moralia, Dutch, Michaeli's Hebrew Grammar, Longy (Long's) Greece (Greek) and Latin Grammar, and others more unbound in the chest I paid for. But she (it) had the misfortune to be in a shipwrecking vessel. But I received from the above mentioned John Henning advice, that the chest by the grace of God was saved, but should (would) be sold in a short time, then he would buy her again for me, which he has done with about 36 shillings Sterling money. — the chest now is in London and you ought therefore to send immediately by letters to the above John Henning desiring him, that by the first opportunity he would be pleased to send the chest over to thee with the offering that he who did bring the chest, should of his money laid out, have gratefully restituted. The other 154 The New Hanover Lutheran Church. but was coldly received. Thence he went to Rotterdam, faring no better. Finally he made his way to America, ar- riving in the fall of 1749. Here Rev. Brunnholtz found him and kindly made arrangements for the payment of his passage, fifteen pounds. The captain had threatened to take him to the West Indies and sell him into slavery to books belonging to the congregation are all packed up in Michael Schmidt's chest. We also got a great many more books or gifts from the booksellers in Leipzig and Strasburg, but since they was of no service to the congregation we have (ex) changed them with a bookseller in Frank- fort for 200 Frankforten hand books, I and Michael Schmidt got bound for the congregation. The others which we have got at Strasburg which (we) have (ex) changed in Darmstadt for song books with great (large) letters for the benefit of the congregation from these ought to be restored us in the first place, what we have laid out for them, and secondly, we ought to have one portion on it likewise where we have endeavored to get advance to preserve currency — as I have marked it in the congrega- tion books by the conclusion of the Hamburger and Lubecker Account: and it is also no more but reasonable that where we was obliged to give advance we also should have it repaid, and these again as soon as we came to Leipzig and down to Lawenbourg until the end of the congre- gation, where the advance did amount (to) five p. cent. Lastly have I and Michael Schmidt bought in Plymouth a hundred pieces of cut window glass, packed in six chests with three hundred pounds of putty, for to fasten the glass in the wooden frames, and have paid for it according to the writings the sum of 25 pounds and 10 shillings Ster- ling, which sum as likewise ought to be returned by the congregation. What more is necessary to know in this affair confer with Michael Schmidt and the writings, which together can give you light in (regard to) all these things: Call for assistance hereto unto God the Giver of Wisdom and understanding with a pure heart, that he might (may) plentifully fill thine heart with heavenly wisdom when in such manner the whole account is settled.

Further observe as much (as) lies in thine power this congregation her preservation and her true rest.

Rev. Brunnholtz took charge of him agreeing to furnish board and clothing. In return he was to assist in teaching and preaching. Brunnholtz testifies that he was gifted as a preacher, well versed in the classics and in philosophy. He filled the position of assistant to Brunnholtz and Muhlenberg for a short time. Then as send over to thee the collection money which from there is yet to be ex- pected : of him have I bought besides other books, Longens Light and Right, one part thereof faileth, write to him and he will assuredly send it to thee. Concerning the goods, which I and Michael Schmidt have bought, some of it belongs to me and to him ; some other to him alone, but some and the most for me alone, Michael Schmidt as I hope will all truly and sincerely remember. Finally there is these letters of Attorney my wife and children, and do nominate thee herewith once more, that thou the gift I have herein to everyone bequeathed truly and faithfully distributest. Firstly as touching my beloved wife : it shall be given to her all what she has on catties, horses, swine and all other living creatures, all household stuff, bedding, pewter, copper, iron, linen, in short (she) shall give nobody any account in the least of these things, notwithstanding with these conditions when she during my absence had behaved herself as an honest woman ought to have done, that she both my office and honor with her scandalous tongue hath not blamed or slandered and therewith great offence given. In such like cases shall all from the greatest to the Smallest even unto the Clothes of her Body be snatched away from her; since she all from me derived, and shall be added to the Gift bequeathed by me unto the Chil- dren. All things then what I leave behind me, be it in money, Silver, Linen, Clothes, Beds, and other Sort of Goods what I have, shall be counted together in one Sum and shall among my beloved Children be equally divided and given unto them; but those out of Second Wedlock, shall receive nothing into their hands, until they have reached their re- quisite age.

Hartwig's field near Albany, New York. He seems to have tired of this very soon and returned to Pennsylvania. They then decided that the only thing to be done was to ordain him — " they were constrained to ordain him " — but it is not stated in what the necessity consisted. He and Rev. Schrenk were ordained at the Trappe, November 5, 1752. In addition to the work of assisting Muhlenberg and Brunnholtz in preaching, he was given charge of the " Filial at Pikestown," about seventeen miles away, and of Colebrookdale, very evi- dently the Hill Church. He commenced the " Church Records " of this latter church. According to Schieren- beck, who gives Brunnholtz as his authority, his poverty must have been very great.

August 7, 1753, he married Anna Sophia Gemling, said to have been a very respectable servant (Redemptionist) . When Rev. Schaum failed to keep the congregation at York together, Rauss was recommended. At first he ac- quiesced in the arrangements, then he declined. Finally he went very unexpectedly and took charge of the con- gregation. But now he turned against Muhlenberg and the synod, which he afterwards abandoned. May 19, 1761, he even brought formal charges against Rev. Muhlenberg. These being laid before synod and investigated, were found to be groundless. In his defense Muhlenberg describes Rauss as being un- stable, capricious, suspicious, not over truthful and, above all, lacking in sound discretion. In 1763 the congregation at York dismissed him. But his family remained con- nected with the congregation of which he was no longer the pastor. He still retained some of the country churches, and it is said practiced medicine during this time. He died July II, 1788, in his sixty-fourth year. He was survived by one son and two daughters. Both the parents and the other members of the family rest in the churchyard at York. i58 The New Hanover Lutheran Church. ?"■:. (6) Rev. Roeller. The general impression seemed to be that this must have been Rev. J. G. Roeller, but that is a palpable mistake. This man was only licensed in 1799. The record of the confirmation of forty-eight persons May 17, 1787, shows conclusively that this was the act of Rev. Conrad Roeller. The communion administered at the same time must have been his act also. It is altogether probable that he was neither regular pastor nor stated supply, but that Dr. H. M. Muhlenberg being quite feeble, Roeller as a neighboring pastor offi- ciated for him. The Halle Reports, Vol. II., p. 104, say of this man: Conrad Roeller, who had studied at Erlangen, brought excel- lent testimonials. After his arrival here, 1 771, he at first as- sisted H. M. Muhlenberg in Philadelphia, then in connection with F. A. C. Muhlenberg served congregations in the vicinity of Lebanon. Finally he took charge of Old Goshenhoppen, Indian- field and Tohickon. This was probably his field and from it he gave assist- ance to Muhlenberg. In the first volume of the Halle Reports we are told he remained in this field to the end of his days. The state- ment that he served congregations in the vicinity of Leb- anon is a mistake.1 1 Rev. F. A. C. Muhlenberg in his diary states plainly that he was a simple visitor, taking the pastor's place to enable him to visit outside con- gregations. Biographical Sketches of Ministers. 159 (7) Rev. John C. Kunze, D.D. Although mentioned in connection with the supply of the congregations at the Trappe and at New Hanover immediately after the death of H. M. Muhlenberg Dr. Kunze seems in no way to have been connected with this congregation further than the mere filling of the pulpit by a colleague, and baptizing children. But as Dr. Kunze was a leading man of his day we give a brief abstract of the sketch of his life as presented by Rev. J. W. Richards, D.D., one of his nephews, in the " Lutheran Almanac "in 1851. Rev. John Christopher Kunze, D.D., was the last of the regularly called and ordained men sent from Halle to our American churches. Our churches had learned to provide for themselves, and men now came from Europe without a regular call. He was among the most learned and pious of those called. The whole church in America was indebted to him for his services as professor of oriental languages in the University of Pennsylvania and after- ward in that of New York. A profound theologian, his instructions were often given in Latin. He also intro- duced the regular use of English in the services. He compiled an English Lutheran Hymn Book. He was born August 5, 1744, in Artern, near Mansfield, attended the gymnasium in Rossleben and in Merseberg, and studied three years at the Leipzig University. For three years he was preceptor at Closter Bergen, and then was ap- pointed inspector of the orphan house at Greitz. In less than a year he received a call from Halle, for Penn- 160 The New Hanover Lutheran Church. sylvania. He was ordained by the Stollberg Consistor- ium at Wernigerode, 1770. With the two sons of Muh- lenberg he then proceeded to America, arriving at New York, September 22. They set out in the stage for Phil- adelphia and reached it on the twenty-sixth. He was at once elected pastor at Philadelphia and entered upon his duties October 8, and continued until July 19, 1784. He then removed to New York and served that congre- gation until his death, 1807. He was married to Mar- garette, daughter of H. M. Muhlenberg. Four daugh- ters survived him, the only son having died some time previously. While pastor in Philadelphia he held the German pro- fessorship in the University of Pennsylvania from 1780 to 1784. That institution conferred the title D.D. upon him in 1783. In New York he was professor of oriental languages in Columbia College. (8) Timothy Kuhl. This man's name closes the list of those connected with the service of this congregation. From October 12, 1788 to February 1789, eighteen baptisms of children are accredited to him in the church's record. But it is im- possible to say what the man really was, except that his name is not to be found in the Halle Reports and that the minutes of synod of 1788 make the following state- ment concerning him : Mr. Kuhl, a candidatus theologice from Hamburg, handed to the ministerium a writing accompanied by two testimonials from the magistrate, his former pastor, Pastor Berkbahn, in which he petitioned for reception into the Ministerium. Many grave ac- cusations, and especially that he had as a candidate administered communion here in the country, led the Ministerium to the decis- ion for the present not to have anything to do with Mr. Kuhl. Biographical Sketches of Ministers. 161 The most favorable opinion we could give concerning him would, therefore, be to suppose that he was a school- master who was preparing for the ministry, and because of this fact, assumed the privilege of baptizing children and also administering the Lord's Supper. Time may possibly throw some light on the subject, but that is very doubtful. That he did claim to be pastor of the church is certain, for he so signs his name. If he was it was for a very brief period only. Special Note. — The christian name of Gerhart Henkel was " Anthony Jacob." " Gerhart " was the name of his oldest son, and in some unaccount- able way it is attached to the Exile, and he is known as such in history. His name appears as Anthony Jacob in his non-cupative will, in the pur- chase of land (1718), in settlements of estates, etc. In his will, dated August 12, 1728, which has been discovered and is published in "The Pennsylvania-German," it is stated by the witnesses that he fell from his horse in Springfield Manor, near Chestnut Hill, on that day, was carried to the house of Herman Groothausen, where he died the same day. Three men, Herman Groothausen, Hans Mich. Schwenstock and George Ruger, were present, and to them he dictated his will. He mentions all his children in his will, and says: "Gerhart my oldest son." Johanna Fred- rika, the wife of Valentine Geiger, was his oldest daughter. Rev. A. Stapleton, D.D., a descendant, found the grave of the widow, Maria Elisabeth (who died in 1744), at St. Michael's Lutheran Church, Germantown, and concluded, for reasons which we need not now adduce, that she was buried in the same grave with her husband, the Exile. On June 7, 1910, he had the grave opened in the presence of representatives of the family from the South and West. They found his inferences correct; the skeleton of the Exile, Anthony Jacob Henkel, was found under that of his wife. This proves conclusively the place of his burial. CHAPTER VI. The Church Building. gl PARTIAL description of the present church edifice, erected by the congre- gation, frequently spoken of as the third one, but in all probability the fourth, has been given in connection with the history of the organiza- tion of the congregation in Chapter II. We will there- fore not repeat the details already given. The substantial and perma- nent character of the build- ing then erected is shown by the fact that the walls have weathered the storms of more than one hundred and forty years, and they will apparently be able to withstand those of several centuries more. It stands and will continue to stand as a monument of the substantial and stable 162 The Church Building. 163 workmanship of the people who erected it. In all prob- ability generations of the descendants of those worthy fathers will continue to meet and worship in it the God whom their father served, with equal fidelity. The present church is a graystone building, with brown- stone trimmings, 67 x 46 ft. The walls are very heavy, thirty inches and over in thickness. The stone of the walls is said to have been carted by teams from Chester County, six or seven miles distant. The zeal and industry of those devoted people must have been great. They were building for ages and centuries to come. In the accounts already given it has been shown that the first church building was erected some time between 1694 and 1703, and was used until about 172 1, when the congregation found it necessary to provide a better and more convenient place of worship, which was done between 172 1 and 1727. This second church seems to have answered the purposes of the congregation until about 1 74 1, when the erection of another church became necessary. Then in 1767-68 the present substantial edifice was erected. But in one matter at least the second church building had an advantage. It was provided with a bell and seems also to have had an organ. Until about fifty years ago the present church was without a bell. At the time of the centennial celebration, Rev. L. Groh, D.D., the pas- tor, declared that the church bell, then for the first time invited worshipers to the house of God. We understand that a steeple and a bell were included in the improvements then made. But after all the statement was entirely too broad. For, unquestionably the former church, that erected 1741-47, had a bell. Here is the record which H. M. Muhlenberg himself made: 164 The New Hanover Lutheran Church. In the year 1748 the following members of this christian con- gregation in New Hanover Township purchased a bell and have had the same placed on the church for the common use of the Ev. Luth. congregation in their services, with the special pro- viso that the bell is to be rung for them and their descendants on the day of their marriage and on the day of their death, if they die as Christians. With this end in view the amounts contributed are recorded as follows: (then follows the list of names, headed by Muhlenberg and including Valentine Geiger, Adam Wartman, who was a member of the building committee, Mrs. Sprogel and many others). The entire amount contributed was £29, 5s ($78.00). The above amount was duly received by the deacons, and settlement was made in the presence of the congregation, as the same may be seen in the Protocol. This is attested by H. M. Muhlenberg, V. D. M. Jan. 24, 1 75 1. The original reads thus : Im Jahr 1748 haben folgende aufgezeichnete Gemeinsglieder in dem Amte Neu Hanover eine Glocke gekauft und selbige zum Gemein gottesdienst der Ev. Luth. Gemeine daselbst in die Kirche aufhaengen lassen, mit dem besonderen vorbehalt, dass ihnen und ihren Nachkommen die Glocke soil an den Hochzeits und Begraebnisstagen gelaeuted werden wenn sie eines christ- lichen Todes sterben. Zu dem Ende stehen die Namen und aus- gelegten Gaben beschrieben wie folgt: Muhlenberg, Geiger, Wartman, Sprogel etc — Summe £29.53. Obige Summe ist von den Vorstehern der Gemeine richtig empfangen und vor der Ge- meine berechnet worden, wie in dem Kirchen Protocol zu finden und zu sehen ist — Solches bescheinigt H. M. Muhlenberg V. D. M. Den. 24 Jen. 1751. The Church Building. 165 This shows conclusively that the congregation purchased paid for and put in place a bell one hundred and twenty years before Dr. Groh referred to it and twenty years before the present church was erected. But regulations governing the use of the bell were also made by the church council at a later period, some forty or fifty years before Rev. Groh made this statement. They hardly would have enacted a law governing its use or abuse by the organist of a neighboring church, if they had not had a bell. As there apparently seems to have been no bell there when the church was dedicated, we are inclined to think that it must have been put in place about the time a board floor was put into the building. There was a general overhauling of the entire building at that time, 1826. We are inclined to think that was the time when a bell was again introduced. Why or how it was removed, if it was really removed, we cannot say. But we are fully convinced that a Lutheran Church council would not have forbidden a neighboring Reformed organ- ist and schoolmaster its use in an improper manner if there was no bell in existence. The cornerstone of the present building was laid June 25, 1767. It was dedicated by the assembled Synod No- vember 6, 1768. All the members, including the candi- dates, took part in the service; and as was then customary on such special occasions as the consecration of churches and the ordination of ministers, children were baptized by one of the visiting ministers. In this case the baptisms were performed by Rev. Klugh. This church at first had but few arrangements for the comfort of worshipers, except benches or pews. It had a brick floor, and was without stoves. It is, therefore, not strange to find that F. A. C. Muhlenberg in his diary 12 166 The New Hanover Lutheran Church. tells us that the cold in some of the churches was almost unendurable. It does not require a very vivid imagina- tion to conceive how icy the atmosphere must have been in a church like this, with stone walls from two to three feet in thickness, a brick floor, and no stoves. The Minutes tell us that at a congregational meeting held May 29, 1765, the following were elected as overseers in the erection of the church building about to be undertaken. This is attested by H. M. Muhlenberg himself. They were Matthias Hollebach, Adam Wartman, Matthias Reichardt, Tobias Juerger. But when the work was actually under- taken two years later only Wartman and Reichert seem to have acted and Jacob Ebli seems to have been substituted for one or both of the others. A sandstone directly over the door bears the names of Adam Wartman, Jacob Ebli, Matthias Reichert als Bauhern A 1767. D. Another stone on the side of the building directly under the cornice gives us another fact of historic interest. It contains the name of Michael Stofflet, M.M., A.D. 1767. This shows that to him is due a great deal of the credit for the durability and substantiality of this present structure. For he not only understood his trade but evidently employed his powers here to advantage. On March 9, 181 1, at the annual congregational meet- ing the deacons were instructed to make two subscription lists, and collect money for two stoves. These were probably wood stoves, although the record does not say so. There seems to have been no opposition to their introduction, as there was in another one of our Colonial churches where some of the older women sat fanning themselves with their bonnets during the first service held in the church after the introduction of the stoves, although there was no fire there — another illustration of the power of imagination. These stoves seem to have remained in use until February, 1858, when others were purchased. April 22, 1826, at a congregational meeting held in the schoolhouse for consultation in regard to improving the church building, it was resolved: " that the brick be taken oyt and a floor (of boards) he laid." The Church Building. 167 2. " That the windows be changed." 3. " That the church be painted, new doors put in, and all other necessary repairs be made." This might justly have been called a " remodelling of the church." In 1867, at> or near the time of the centennial of the church, the question was raised whether the church should simply be refurnished, so as to be just as it was forty years before, or whether the entire interior should be changed. It was then decided that the entire interior of the building should be remodelled, if sufficient funds could be secured by subscription. Frederick Brendlinger, Dr. Jacob Knipe and Elias Fegley were appointed a committee to prepare a draft of the work to be done. Milton H. Brendlinger, Stephen Fegley, Israel Erb and Nathan Drehs were appointed to see what amount could be raised. It was estimated that the cost of the work would be $2,700, without including the cost of a new bell. Special services were held at the reopening of the church, which are noted elsewhere. In 1885 the church was again repaired, the woodwork painted and the walls frescoed. After nineteen years more, in 1904, it was again remod- elled, this time possibly more thoroughly than before. The stoves were now removed and a heating plant sub- stituted. Memorial windows of stained glass were put in together with a new pulpit and furniture. A new organ was likewise introduced, so that the church ap- peared in an altogether new garb. The preceding year the congregation had celebrated its bicentennial, so that these improvements might justly be regarded as a thank offering to the Lord, for the prosper- ity, growth and advancement during two hundred years. One peculiar feature of the records on hand is that very i68 The New Hanover Lutheran Church. little is said about the organ. Besides the agreement between Christian Dieffenbach and the Church Council of the Evangelical Lutheran congregation in New Han- over Township we find only a few references to it. A few times we are told how it may or may not be used. The agreement is dated June 28, 1800, and recites that it is an agreement between the president, trustees, elders and deacons of said congregation with Christian Dieffen- bach of Bethel Township, Berks County, to build an or- gan for the congregation. It is to have ten stops and a foot-pedal and is to be built of the best material, with a walnut case. It is to be completed by August 1, 1801. The price is to be 230 pounds ($680), one hundred and fifteen pounds to be paid May 27, 1801, and the balance to be paid November 27, 1801 (the first half was to be paid on day of dedication). The contract is signed by the sixteen members of the council. The note is signed by Samuel Schoch, secretary. This organ appears to have remained in use a little over one hundred years. In 1905 a larger and more modern instrument was substituted for it. The present instrument is a gift to the congregation and is an honor to the generous donors. CHAPTER VII. The Church Council, and its Transactions. '7T'HE record of these trans- actions may properly be introduced by this statement of H. M. Muhlenberg: November 26, 1742, I, Henry Muhlenberg, minister of the Gos- pel and of the Augsburg Con- fession, arrived at this place, New Hanover. On the 27th I pre- sented my call and my instructions which I had brought with me, from his Reverence the Court preacher Ziegenhagen, at Lon- don, to the deacons and elders. On the 28th I preached my Introductory sermon in this church before the congregation. After the sermon I also read my in- structions in their presence. It certainly is a matter of regret that, until May 29, 1765, a period of twenty-three years, no further records are to be found. Then we have the following: Memorandum. In the year 1765, May 29, a congregational meeting was held in the church at New Hanover, and the constitution contained in 169 170 The New Hanover Lutheran Church. this book was presented, accepted by the members and subscribed by them. The following leading men of the congregation were constituted Trustees: Andrew Kebner Sr., Michael Weichel, Adam Wartman, Michael Schlanecker, George Beck, Mathias Hollebach, Henry Krebs, George Burkhard. After that, for the first time, six vestrymen from among eighteen nominated, were elected, viz., Matthias Reichard, Bernhard Gilbert, Moses Binder, Ludwig Pickel, George Schweinhart and Valentine Stichter. Two new deacons were also elected, viz, Adam Kurtz and Ludwig Hering. Finally the congregation also elected Matthias Hollebach, Adam Wartman, Matthias Reichard and Tobias Juerger, as the overseers in the erec- tion of the proposed new church building. Henry Muh- lenberg attests this on the day and year above named. We herewith give an abstract of this constitution. Matters of detail are given only in summary. We the undersigned, — the regularly called Pastors, as well as the Trustees, Elders and Deacons elect, and the communicant members of the United Evangelical Lutheran congregations in New Hanover and New Providence Townships, in the county of Philadelphia, following the example of our United Evangelical brethren in the faith, in the city of Philadelphia, belonging to St. Michael's, and associated with us, obligate ourselves to the fol- lowing constitution for (the government) of the church and congregation, under penalty of the loss of all share and claim (to it) in case any one should deliberately act contrary to it. Chapter I. Of the Pastors. §1. It is the duty of the regular Preachers, or Pastors of our United Congregations, publicly, purely, concisely, plainly and in an edi- The Church Council. 171 fying manner, to preach the word of God, in accordance with the foundation of the apostles and prophets, and the Unaltered Augs- burg Confession, at the usual times of service on Sunday and on Festival days, as well as at funerals, and upon other solemn occa- sions; they are also allowed to hold meetings for devotion, exhor- tation and prayer on week-days, or during the evening, if found necessary, or if their strength and time permit, in the church, or in the school (houses); that according to the intent of Christ, they spread the Word abroad freely throughout the congregation, for its unending benefit: that they point out the way to true peni- tence and set forth the power of Godliness. §2. The regular ministers, or pastors, shall also administer the Holy Sacraments, viz., Baptism and the Lord's Supper, — especially the Holy Supper to those members who desire it, and at least accord- ing to external tests are fit, worthy and prepared to partake of it. But they are at liberty, conscientiously, not as moved by sinful im- pulses, but according to the principles of the word of God to ex- clude such as transgress openly and according to well established testimony live in gross wickedness, sinning against the word of Christ, from the Lord's Supper and sponsorship in baptism, until they give evidence of amendment of life. §3- They are not to refuse to visit the sick, when they are notified, or it is desired, as far as in them lies, so that they may instruct them in the word of God, lead them to repentance, edify them, comfort them by means of the Holy Supper, if they be found fit and worthy thus strengthening them and preparing them for a blessed end. §4- Especially are they to devote themselves most earnestly to the instruction of the young, both in the church and in the school, publicly and privately: they are to have the oversight of the 172 The New Hanover Lutheran Church. schools and of the teachers; they are to institute wholesome school regulations, and school examinations; they are continually to visit the schools, according to their ability, — to encourage the young, so that they may be wellgrounded in the word of God, — in our catechism and other books of instruction derived from it, so that their attention may be directed to the atonement of Christ, and that they may (be induced to) follow Him. §5. They shall have the right, whenever necessary and circumstances require, to call a meeting of the church council and publicly invite thereto, or cause it to be announced; also to attend the annual church settlement, and all necessary regular meetings, having two votes as pastor. They shall see to it that all be done decently and in order, and in a christian manner, in the adoption of resolutions, at the election of elders and deacons, so that the congregation's interests be advanced, and (they are to see to it) that everything be entered upon the minutes. §6. They shall not absent themselves from the general assembly of the church, or Conference of Pastors and Elders, except in case of extreme necessity, but they are cheerfully to attend the same. They shall aid in serving any (congregation) that may be vacant among our united congregations on account of the decease, or removal, of its pastor, until the congregation again secures a regular pastor. §7- Provides that each pastor shall personally exercise his office and shall not allow an unauthorized person, not regularly examined and ordained, to fill his position. It prescribes how vacancies are to be supplied and filled. §8. Shows the course of procedure in case one of the original United Congregations, New Hanover, New Providence or Philadelphia should become vacant.

The support to be given to a pastor so that he need not engage in secular pursuits. §12. In conducting the service the pastors are to follow the liturgy (adopted) provided. Chapter II. Treats of the External Arrangements of the Congregation. §1. Declares that the regular pastor, the trustees, the elders, the deacons and communicant members constitute the congregation, have the right to vote and control its affairs by a majority of votes. § 2- Points out the fact that under its present arrangement and control the congregations have been prosperous, and therefore declares: 1. Those mentioned above as the regular trustees. 2. They and their successors shall control all the property. 3. In case of vacancy the congregation shall elect one out of those proposed. 4. Nothing referring to the buildings, or property of the church, or congregation, whether the church building itself, the school house, the burying ground, or the land, shall be undertaken with- out the consent of two-thirds of the trustees. As the council consists of the regular pastor, the trustees, the 174 The New Hanover Lutheran Church. elders and the deacons, all must act conjointly. The erection of buildings etc., must have the endorsement of two-thirds of the contributing members, before any steps can be taken. §4- The congregations are to have wardens and vestrymen, i. e., elders and deacons. (a) Six elders in each congregation. (b) The old council nominates three for each office to be filled. From the 18 names thus recorded six elders are elected. If any one refuses to serve he must pay a respectable amount to the poor fund and the next highest takes his place. §5. The term of service is three years for elders and trustees. They are reeligible, or may hold over by common consent. §6. Deacons are elected in the same manner — one selected out of three. §7- Gives duties of elders (ruling elders they are called) and are those usually given in the Liturgy. §8. Recites the usual duties of deacons. §9- Two thirds constitute a quorum. § 10. Defines what are important matters, — the buying of land, erect- ing and repairing buildings, the election of Pastors or of school teachers, the selection of men to solicit funds, all these must be acted on by at least two-thirds of council upon public notice duly given. The Church Building. 175 §«. No accusation against pastors, trustees, elders or deacons is to be entertained unless attested by 2 or 3 credible witnesses. Chapter III. Of members — their Rights and Duties. §1- 1. Must be baptized. 2. Partake with us of the Lord's Supper. 3. Not live in open sin. 4. Not engage in a dishonorable calling. 5. Lead a godly life. 6. Contribute to the maintenance of the church. 7. Obey constitution and laws. 8. Conduct themselves properly towards pastor and other officers. §2. Those transgressing wilfully can have no share or portion or right to vote. §3- Discipline. I. Admonition by the pastor. 2. Then in the presence of several elders. 3. Before the whole council. §4- If all this prove fruitless, they shall be excluded from Lord's Supper and sponsorship and voice in affairs. In case of amendment may be restored. This is to remain in force in these United Congregations of New Hanover and New Providence until the Church council and congregation, or at least two-thirds of them with their approval thereof, deem it necessary to amend.

The following letter, drawn up by the secretary in accord- ance the instructions of the church council, and carefully revised by them, was unanimously accepted by the mem- bers of the corporation: To the Consistory of the Reformed Congregation in New Hanover. Most Esteemed Friends: We received your letter of September 26, and were surprised not a little, inasmuch as the resolution sent to Jacob Schneider, Esq., is altogether general in character, and concerned only the order and welfare of our own congregation. Neither you nor your congregation are mentioned therein nor was it sent to you or your congregation. With the same right (of that you your- selves must be aware) with which you have sent your comments Church Records. 191 concerning the same, any other congregation might call us to account in regard to it. Inasmuch as, taking your letter as a whole (notwithstanding the friendly form in which it is drawn up) the resolution which we sent to Mr. Snyder does not seem to suit you, and we cherish a kindly affection for you and your con- gregation, and as we do not desire to be suspected by you of having entertained any unkindly feeling towards you, or your worthy congregation, we feel ourselves compelled to give the reasons which led us to adopt the resolution. These were the conduct of your organist Mr. Jacob Schneider at the funerals of Mr. Voegley's child, of the aged Mr. Linsebigler, and a number of others. But as these instances to which we refer must be known to you as well as they are known by us, we deem it unnecessary to enter into further details, simply observing that something of that sort was up to this time unheard of by the oldest among us. And Dear Brethren! who is there among you that has ever heard anything of the kind? To convince; you all the more, that with regard to our former friendliness and love to you and your congregation there has been no change, we herewith make you the offer, to re- turn to the old arrangement in regard to the school-master, which obtained between the two congregations the past twenty or thirty years, and we pledge ourselves, under these conditions, cheerfully to rescind our resolution. Moreover, in addition we take the liberty of informing you, that your pastor, as well as your congregation are heartily welcome to the use of our cemetery and of our church, at funerals, in the future as they have been in the past. April 23, 1825. John Reifschneider was elected presi- dent, A. Wartman, treasurer and Peter Jeager secretary. Three day's later (26th) " a congregational meeting was held in the church to consider the sad condition of our con- gregation." With the officers already named, the meeting was called to order and after a clear setting forth of the course of events by the pastor, Jacob Miller, the matter being carefully considered, the following resolutions in- 192 The New Hanover Lutheran Church. tended to promote the peace and harmony of the congre- gation were adopted. i. Resolved, that we are well pleased with the course of our pastor in general, and especially in regard to the long talked of seminary and the General synod. 2. That we will stand by our pastor in every instance in the future as we have in the past, especially in the suit against John Liebenguth. 3. That each and every one, seeking to produce strife and division among us on account of a seminary, a General synod, or any other improper (unjust) matter, shall no longer be considered a member, or members, of our con- gregation. 4. That both ministers of the Reformed congregation shall be allowed the privilege of the cemetery in case of funerals, the parties being allowed to select which ever minister they choose.

Thereupon the church council was notified to meet on Tuesday, December 12, in the schoolhouse to make arrangements to secure a new school- master. It met on that day, and John Bickel, having been elected president p. t., it was Resolved, that the president shall have the following notice inserted in the Reading Adler and in the German paper at Sumneytown : A schoolmaster, able to read and write German and English well, understands arithmetic, is able to play the organ and to lead the singing, and who can furnish satisfactory credentials, is desired by the Ev.

April 10. The council organized by electing Adam Stettler, president, Adam Wartman, treasurer, for one year and Theodore Storb, secretary. At the same time a resolution was passed to the effect that the keys should be placed in charge of the schoolmaster, and that any one de- siring them should be required, upon request, to tell for what purpose they are wanted.

Messrs.

It is too much for the service he renders. We ourselves, some of us being members of the church council, are of that opinion. And when we reflect upon our own responsibility which we owe to our congregation, before God and the congrega- Church Records. 199 tion (having pledged ourselves) to do everything for its highest welfare. We are of the opinion that it would be just and proper and for the best interest of the congregation, to demand a vote (in regard to the matter). We therefore inform you herewith that we call for an election to be held as soon as possible — to decide, whether the contract now existing between us and Theodore Storb is to be annulled or not. A few members of the congregation are of the opinion that it is not right for Mr. Storb to be paying rent, as he has improved the land so that it is in good order. In our view of the case these our friends are greatly mistaken. We are satisfied with his manner of farming. We see too that Mr. Storb holds the land at too low a rate, and that he has not done this at his own cost but at the ex- pense of the congregation. Therefore let us all be perfectly fair, and let us give the congregation a chance to decide by vote, for the best interest of the congregation. Faithful to the cause and desiring the welfare of the congregation, we subscribe ourselves Samuel Hatfield, William Royer, John Bickel, Wil- liam Stichter, Gabriel Schweinhart. It was decided that the contract with the schoolmaster remain unchanged. March g, 1850. Annual election and settlement. April 7.

After the election, December 22, Jacob Binder and Fr. Brendlinger were appointed a committee to notify Rev. N. Jaeger of his election as pastor. It was decided that the congregation would contribute twenty-five dollars towards his moving expenses as far as Pottstown and would bring him from that place, upon being informed of his arrival. The pastor's salary was fixed at one hundred and sixty dollars, besides parsonage and land belonging thereto. March 12, 1853. Settlement and election of council.

Public notice having been given, the council and the con- gregation met October 15, 1853. After the appoint- ment of Jacob Erb and Samuel Schnell as judges of elec- tion, it was found that by a majority of 33 to 1, it was de- cided that one half of the congregation's woodland, and the field of farming land next to it be sold, for the pur- pose of erecting a house as a residence for the schoolmaster, or organist, of the congregation, and to replenish the con- gregation's treasury. Without notice of a change of officers this action is signed by John Fagley president and Frederic Brendlinger secretary, pro tern.

At the same time Chas. Brendlinger and Wm. Roeller were named as a committee, to call on and ask Wm. Zoller and Joseph Kehs, whether they mean to take the land, and whether they consider the title satisfac- tory, and whether they mean to pay for it. The parties having been seen about the matter, and their answers being very unsatisfactory the congregation reclaimed the land and finally, on July 15, 1854, sold it to Frederic Brendlinger for $63 per acre. October 28, 1854. At a meeting of the church council complaints handed in against the pastor, Rev. Nathan Church Records. 203 Jaeger, were considered, but being decided unproven they were dismissed.

Jaeger announced their election and set a time for installation. That the issue was the continuance of Rev. Jaeger as pastor. That a second election resulted in the choice of the same men. It is charged that the protest was unlawfully and illegally entered, as those making it were not members. Therefore the council demanded his immediate resignation. They also resolved to give him notice to " quit and remove from the church property be- fore the first Saturday in April, appointing a committee of three to wait upon him and give him a copy of this ac- tion. April 5. There was another meeting of council, eleven members in attendance, at which it was decided that his salary should not exceed one dollar per annum. To this Rev. Jaeger replied declining to accede to their action. Consequently the church council appointed a meeting of the congregation to be held June 14, 1856, to decide whether Rev. Jaeger should remain or should leave. At this election a majority decided that he should leave. September 7, 1856. Fr. Brendlinger handed in his res- ignation as treasurer and Abraham Hauberger was elected to succeed him.

Jaeger, asking him to make the announcement on November 30 at the public service. At this election 104 voters unanimously decided that he should no longer be pastor. Notice of the result was sent to Rev. Jaeger by the church council Church Records. 205 and he was ordered to remove from the congregation's property. March 14, 1857. Annual election and settlement. The record shows that the Rev. Jaeger replied by having a council of his own elected. The council protested against their installation. Then the council, April 4, 1857, notified Rev. Jaeger that he would no longer be allowed to preach. This whole matter was then referred to the court, the details of which are not edifying. February 24, 1858. Rev. Wendt preached a trial ser- mon and the council called him to serve the congrega- tion one year on trial. At this same meeting the resolution excluding the Re- formed minister, Rev. A. Hoffman, from the church, was rescinded, provided the Reformed Congregation reciprocate. Fr. Brendlinger was appointed to convey a copy of this action to the Reformed congregation. November 18, 1858. At a meeting of the church coun- cil a committee, Rev. H. Wendt, Fredr. Foegly, Jacob Yerger, Fredr. Brendlinger and John Roos, were appointed to draft a new constitution and report November 26.

Having changed their mind they decided that the collection at the harvest festival should be for the congregation. The vestry of Sassaman's Church complained that the pastor 208 The New Hanover Lutheran Church. had given them up without a cause. The council then de- cided that they were opposed to a division of the field. Against this four members of council afterwards entered a formal protest. Lack of a quorum prevented meetings in September and December. At a meeting of the congregation January 17, 1863, an effort was made to raise $600 to pay off the debt. At the meeting of the church council, March 7, a num- ber of resignations and dismissals from the congregation were acted upon, and nominations made. March 14.

At a meeting of council, April 30, 1864, it was resolved that on May 14 an election should be held to decide whether a small strip of land adjoining Fr. Brendlinger's property should be sold to him. On May 14 it was decided to sell him the small piece of ground on condition that he pay all expenses of survey, etc., and that he keep a good fence between the properties. September 10. Upon proposal of the organist Samuel Boyer, he was allowed to move off the congregation's property and to rent the same to Mr. Ezra Grubb. Rev. Wendt also gave notice of his intended resignation. At the meeting of September 17 he gave formal notice Church Records. 209 of his resignation to take effect the latter part of October. The resignation was accepted and it was decided to in- vite Rev. A. D. Croll to preach trial sermons. At a meeting, September 25, a committee was ap- pointed to visit Rev. A. D. Croll and present the invitation personally. September 28. Rev. Croll having declined to visit the the congregation it was decided to invite Rev. L. Groh. October ig. Mr. Samuel Boyer was appointed to invite the church councils at Boyertown and Pottstown to ap- point committees to meet with the council of this church on Sunday, October 26. On that day the meeting took place and it was agreed to invite Rev. G. F. Gardner of Trenton, N. J. October 31. The committee was now authorized to invite Rev. B. E. Kramlich. An election to decide whether Rev. A. D. Croll should be called was appointed for December 3. At that meeting Rev. A. D. Croll was elected by a good majority. Messrs. F. Brendlinger and J. Romig were appointed to notify him. Rev. Croll declined. It was then decided to invite Rev. Wm. Gerhardt, Jones- town, Pa. At the meeting of council, January 18, 1865, they were informed that conference desired to unite New Hanover, Boyertown and Pottstown into a parish. Keelor's congregation protested against this arrangement and New Hanover sided with it. Another committee was now appointed to confer concerning a pastor. February 25, 1865. An amendment entering all regu- lar communicants upon the membership list was proposed to be voted on at the next regular congregational meeting. February 26. After service Rev. A. H.

Arrangements were made to put a new roof on a part of the parsonage and to repair that of the church. September 23. Committees of Boyertown and Swamp congregation met and determined that these two congrega- tions should form a separate charge, if this action is en- dorsed by a majority of both councils and congregations. Boyertown is to pay $50 more as long as the pastor occu- pies the parsonage at Swamp. The election was held and by a majority of votes the new charge was formed. Rev. A. H. Groh having died, the congregations now held another election and called Rev. Leonard Groh, March 3, 1866. March 10, 1866. The usual annual election. October 20, 1866. It was decided to meet semi-annu- ally instead of quarterly. The council also agreed that the pastor should publicly advise against feasting at funerals.

May 11, i86j. It was agreed that a congregational meeting be held on Saturday, the eighteenth inst., to decide whether the interior of the church should be remodelled, or simply repaired. It was resolved to remodel if the funds could be raised. Fredr. Brendlinger, Jacob Knipe and Elias Fagley were appointed to prepare a draft of the work to be undertaken. A committee of four was appointed to present an estimate Church Records. 211 of the probable cost. They reported that it would cost about $2,700, not counting labor voluntarily rendered and the cost of the bell. July 7. It was agreed that another meeting be called Saturday, July 27, to further consider the matter and de- cide whether they should proceed with the amounts sub- scribed. It was decided to proceed and the same com- mittee, which had presented the estimate, was appointed to contract for the work if it did not exceed $3,000. The last entries are those of a meeting of council to nominate candidates held March 7, 1868, and that of the congrega- tion held March 14, at which the annual election was held and the annual settlement was made. Another book carries this record to 1889, when it was continued in the present record. Further extracts are deemed unnecessary. At the time of the remodelling of the church in 1868 the council had purchased a steel alloy bell for $165 under a guaranty. It proved unsatisfactory, and was re- turned and another procured. At an election held January 1, 1870, it was decided by a vote of thirty-five to ten that the pastor should continue to reside at Swamp and should not move to Boyertown. This action seems to have been disregarded or else re- scinded, for in 1 87 1 we find the pastor living at Boyer- town, which continued to be his place of residence during the remainder of his pastorate. September 24, 1870, the church council resolved to call a congregational meeting to determine whether the par- sonage with the farm, and also a piece of school land, should be sold. If the congregation so decided, whether a new house with the necessary outbuildings " should be erected for the use of the minister." At that meeting, held 212 The New Hanover Lutheran Church. on October 8, thirty-five voted in favor of selling the par- sonage and eighteen against, twenty-three in favor of sell- ing the school land and twenty-eight against. At a special meeting of the council on October 10, it was resolved " that any member of this congregation who neglects the Lord's Supper on two successive occasions (without a satisfactory cause) shall not be entitled to vote at any meeting of this congregation." On November 5, 1870, the council in special assembly determined to call another congregational meeting on November 12, to decide finally the matter of the sale of the parsonage, and the farm belonging thereto, and whether new buildings are to be erected. The vote resulted: thirty-six for selling and seven against; eighteen for building a new parsonage and twenty- two against. On November 24 the council determined to advertise the sale for December 17, 1870. This farm contained twenty-one acres and one hundred and ten perches and was not to be sold for less than $4,000. The annual proceeds from this source were to be applied to the support of the pastor. The congregation realized $4,200 from this sale. In September, 1872, the congregation by vote decided to put blinds to the windows of the church. During the succeeding years various minor repairs were made to the property. In 1875 the steeple was repaired and repainted. On July 25 of this year after divine services the pastor Rev. L. Groh took " formal leave of the congregation to visit Europe." He returned, and on September 12 received the congratulations of members and friends. During this year the congregation decided that sheds for ten horses and vehicles be erected at the northwest end of the yard. Church Records. 213 That the congregation was growing in liberality as well as in other respects is shown by the fact that on April 16, 1876, at the celebration of the holy communion, there be- ing 288 communicants, $91.83 were contributed for edu- cational and missionary purposes. On May 14 and 15, 1878, there was a convention of the Third District Conference of the Evangelical Lutheran Ministerium of Pennsylvania held in this church, at which there were twenty-four ministers present. June 29, 1878, the matter of erecting sheds was again taken up, and it was now decided to build one for the pastor and as many more as should be subscribed and paid for. In 1 88 1 the church council granted leave of absence to Rev. L. Groh during the months of September and Oc- tober, to make a missionary tour through the state of Nebraska. At the call of the council the congregation met on May 9, 1885, and decided to paint the church, to fresco the walls and repair the roof of the church as soon as $500 were secured towards this object. About this time the organist, Professor Samuel L. Boyer, resigned after many years of service. At a meet- ing on December 29 Mr. George C. Gulden, of Chester County, was elected as his successor. At the same time it was resolved to dispense with the English evening ser- vices and have every third service English at the regular morning service. About this time movements were also inaugurated toward a division of the pastoral charge, which at this time consisted of this congregation and St. John's Church, Boyertown, the latter congregation desiring its own pas- tor. The request that this petition be granted was placed before the congregation on March 13, 1886, and was »5 214 The New Hanover Lutheran Church. favorably acted upon. The Rev. L. Groh presented his resignation, to take place at the end of the fiscal year (April i). On May 22 an election was held to fill the vacancy, which resulted in the election of the present pas- tor, who after his graduation from the Seminary and ordination by the Synod was installed as pastor on July 1 1 by Rev. D. K. Kepner, president of the First District Conference, the Rev. F. J. F. Schantz, D.D., preaching the installation sermon. The old God's Acre surrounding the church being well- nigh filled, an election was held on August 28 of this year to decide " whether the council shall proceed in laying out a cemetery." The action resulted favorably and the cemetery was opened and laid out in lots. It was formally opened and consecrated December 12 by the pastor. Rev. D. K. Kepner, Rev. L. Groh and Rev. O. P. Smith preached sermons on the occasion. As the organist remained but a single year, another election for this purpose became necessary. On January 29, 1887 an election was held by the congregation and resulted in the choice of B. R. Lamb, who did not accept the position, when the congregation elected David Liven- good at its regular meeting on March 12. On March 9, 1889, Mr. Jacob D. Fegley was ap- pointed to procure a seal of the corporation, for the use of the secretary of the congregation. In 1890 a jury was appointed by the courts of Mont- gomery County to vacate the road leading from the Swamp road to the church, and open a new one through the property of the congregation. On July 5, at a congre- gational meeting called for this purpose, an election was held to decide whether the congregation was willing to abide by the action and recommendation of the jury. The Church Records. 215 election resulted in twenty-three to one in favor of pro- testing against the opening of the proposed road, and if necessary to institute legal proceedings against the action of the jury. The road was never opened. On December 13, at a regular meeting of the church council, it was decided not to grant the request of Trinity Lutheran congregation at Bechtelsville, that they be ad- mitted into the pastoral charge, but permission was granted the pastor to serve them as supply. One year later this action concerning the relations with the Bechtels- ville congregation was reiterated. After the regular service on Sunday, May 14, 1893, Council decided to introduce the full liturgic service ac- cording to the morning service in the church book, to be used at the English services of the congregation. In the Spring of 1896 Mr. David Livengood resigned as organist. At an election held on May 9, Mr. Henry Schell was elected to fill the position. On October 19 and 20 of this year the Norristown Conference of the Ministerium of Pennsylvania held its meeting here and was entertained by the congregation. On December 12, 1896, an important action was taken by the church council, viz., the granting the use of a parcel of ground to Mr. J. G. Rhoads, for the purpose of building an open shed, so long as it is used for this purpose and provided that it does not interfere with the rights and privileges of the congregation. At a regular meeting of the church council held on Dec- ember 9, 1899, the matter of holding bicentennial ser- vices of the organization of the congregation was discussed and the following action taken: " Resolved, That the his- tory of this congregation shall be written from its organ- ization until its two hundredth anniversary," and also that 216 The New Hanover Lutheran Church. the pastor be charged with this1 task. This action was more far-reaching than its resolution indicates. It implied that the church records be translated, transcribed and published in connection with such other matter as may be prepared and written. The church council at the time this action was taken, and who are responsible for the same are, besides the pastor: Deacons — Milton Shaner, David B. Nester, Irwin Harpel and Harry Knause; Elders — Solomon Ren- ninger, John Rhoads, G. Washington Drumheller, Jacob Kase, Elam Ackerman, Samuel Smith; Trustees — Richard Hollenbush, Henry Swinehart, George B. Erb, A. Fred Saylor, John Roos, Josiah G. Yerger. In the spring of 1901 Henry Schell resigned as organist, and Mrs. May Good was elected by the congregation to the position. On October 27 and 28, 1903 the bicentennial of the congregation was celebrated with appropriate ser- vices. An account thereof appears eleswhere. In January, 1904, Mrs. Good resigned and was suc- ceeded by Mr. Wm. F. Lamb. On January 30, 1904, at a congregational meeting, an election was held to decide upon the repairs to the church which were about to be undertaken. The propositions presented were: {a) Shall the church be repaired, (b) shall a heating plant be installed, (c) shall the galleries be removed and a basement made within the auditorium? The first two propositions prevailed; the latter was de- feated. Committees were accordingly appointed to superintend the work, subscriptions solicited and selections made as to materials and extent of the work to be done. Mr. Jacob M. Moyer was elected treasurer of the repair fund. On September 10, a motion was adopted to install new pews, and on the twenty-first a contract was awarded to furnish Church Records. 217 same at a cost of $725. Arrangements were already made to secure new pulpit and altar and a new carpet. An effort was also made to secure new stained glass windows. This was successful, and memorial windows were procured from members and friends of the congre- gation at a cost of $1,310. The work was delayed on account of some objections being made to excavating un- der the floor of the church to install a heating plant, but by September operations were actively begun and prac- tically completed by the end of the year. The church was reconsecrated in January, 1905. During this year a petition was also sent to the council from the Lutheran congregation at Sassamansville, re- questing to be united with it into a pastoral charge. On March 20, 1904, action was taken on this request, but did not result favorably. On June 14 council granted its pastor permission to resign Huber's congregation. In April, 1905, the pastor announced to the church council that Mr. Andrew Carnegie has promised to pay half of the cost of a new $1,800 pipe organ for the con- gregation and also that the other half was promised to the congregation by several members as a gift. On April 8, the congregation by vote accepted the offer and on the thirtieth of the same month the council ordered its presi- dent and secretary to sign a contract, in behalf of the con- gregation, with Bates and Culley to build the organ. The instrument was built according to contract and placed within the church and later consecrated to its sacred uses.

The Schoolmasters and Organists of the Church. Their Times of Service, and a Brief Sketch of the Sunday School. TI7TI HEN and under what circumstances the first school house was erected, and who was the first school teacher to be employed by this congregation will prob- ably always remain an open question. The Halle Re- ports tell of the existence of the school in 1743 and at once introduces us to John Frederic Vigera, who had charge of the school in 1744. But in giving this sketch of the schoolmasters and organists employed at various times during the history of the congregation, we will not cite in every instance the specific authorities, whether the Halle Reports, the record of the church, or other sources. 219 220 The New Hanover Lutheran Church. This man Vigera is the first of the New Hanover school masters brought to our notice. He had lived among the Salzburgers at Ebenezer, Georgia. He had come to that place in 1741 as a merchant, and whilst still a single man. He had the oversight of the orphans there. He came to Pennsylvania in 1743. He seems to have had charge of the school at New Hanover during 1744. From him it passed into the hands of J. Nicholas Kurtz, who re- mained in charge from the spring of 1745 to December, 1746. He was succeeded by J. Albert Weygandt. Vigera probably went from here to the Trappe and then took charge of the school at Lancaster in 1748. April 19, 1749, he married Anna Stephens, also known by the name of Stephenson, a woman of Quaker descent, at the house of Rev. H. M. Muhlenberg at New Provi- dence. In 1750 he was employed as schoolmaster at Philadelphia. In 1752 he gave up that position and was succeeded by Rev. Heintzelman as teacher and organist. He seems to have been very successful as a teacher. There may have been, and probably were, others be- fore his time. All the indications are that there was a school connected with the congregation from its very beginning. It is to be regretted that H. M. Muhlen- berg and his colaborers so seldom dropped hints in re- gard to the activities and labors of churches and schools existing before their time, except in those cases in which they were brought into conflict with them, while those who were acting independently did not seem to want any one to know what they were doing. The consequence is that the events which occurred before Muhlenberg's time and the occurrences outside his influence, among those who did not join in with him, have almost entirely passed out of view. As already stated Vigera was succeeded by Schoolmasters and Organists of the Church. 221 J. N. Kurtz, afterwards ordained to the ministry and sta- tioned at Tulpehocken, York, etc. He was succeeded by J. Albert Weygandt, already men- tioned, by J. Wm. Kurtz and others, whose names have long since been forgotten. Some of them perchance may again be brought to notice, but probably the larger number have forever passed from men's recollection. Another fact must not be overlooked, viz., that in those early years, nearly all the assistants, and the regular pas- tors even, up to the time of the sons of Muhlenberg, and possibly even after that, taught the school a part of the time. In fact, much of the proficiency of many of the pas- tors of that day arose from the fact that they were thoroughly trained as teachers. They knew how to teach, and their teaching bore rich fruit. Another whose name has been handed down and who was held in high esteem was John Jacob Loeser. He was employed here in 1748, and probably even earlier. Muhlenberg speaks very highly of him. He appears to have been an immediate successor of J. N. Kurtz, and was employed here before Kurtz left. However, he always remained a teacher. He never entered the ministry. He not only taught the ordinary branches, but also acted as catechist. It is said of him that he could commit to memory an entire sermon in two days. So far we have found no distinct data showing who were his immediate successors, except the ministers and helpers already mentioned. Being cotemporaneous with Kurtz, he and Kurtz were married about the same time. Loeser was married to Mary Eble, November 18, 1747, and Kurtz in December of the same year, to Elizabeth Seidel. October 22, 1748, Loeser appeared at Lancaster as a candidate for the office of teacher and cantor. Accord- 222 The New Hanover Lutheran Church. ing to the testimony of Handschuh's diary he was set to work to show his fitness as a teacher. He seems to have spent the remainder of his days at Lancaster. We are told that he died there in 1793, aged sixty-nine years, six months and three days, after having spent forty-four years as a schoolmaster. According to a statement of Dr. Ochsenford, Michael Walther was the schoolmaster in 1750 and 175 1. Little is known of the man except the mere fact that Muhlen- berg states, without giving a specific reason, that he could not be sent out to preach, or to read sermons. Who his immediate successor was we have not been able to learn positively. Apparently it was Lucas Rauss. If so, he remained but a short time. Rauss apparently occupied the position during the latter part of 1749 and the beginning of 1750, but who had charge of the school from the time of his departure to Albany to the time of his return, about 1752 or 1753, we have not been able to ascertain. There is a possibility that J. Albert Wey- gant assisted him a part of the time, or was substituted for him. Rauss seems to have had charge of the school a part of the time after his return until his final location at York. Perhaps there had been some one to aid him in the work, as he actually officiated as pastor of the churches at Oley Hill, Pikeland and Tohickon during these latter years. Undoubtedly William Kurtz was the schoolmaster, as well as the pastor's assistant and substitute from 1757 or 1758 to 1760. Whether Rev. Van Buskirk, Rev. Ludwig Voigt and the sons of Muhlenberg, during the time they officiated as the assistants of Muhlenberg, ever filled the office of schoolmaster, cannot be said, but it seems probable that Schoolmasters and Organists of the Church. 223 they did. That would fill up the time until about the time when Mr. Schaffner had charge of the school, in 1774. Unfortunately the older minutes throw no light on the subject. This unfortunately leaves a gap of about twenty years unaccounted for. The later minutes beginning March, 1795, furnish some good clues as to the teachers employed between that time and 1867. These records show that January 17, 1798, Daniel Schaeffer was elected as school teacher for one year. Apparently he is the same man who sub- sequently entered the Lutheran ministry and for several years acted as pastor of Zion, Perry Township, St. Paul's, Windsor, and probably several other congrega- tions in the vicinity of Hamburg, Berks County. December 9, of the same year, there was a public exam- ination of three candidates, Daniel Schaeffer, Adam Fil- bert and Samuel Schoch. At the election held four days later, December 13, Samuel Schoch was elected by fifty- four votes against thirty cast for the other two men. Mr. Schoch certainly retained charge of the school until 1804, and possibly at least a part of the time for nearly seven years more, for it does not appear that the name of Mr. Schmidt is recorded as teacher until 181 1, when a resolu- tion was adopted to the effect " that if our Schoolmaster, Mr. Schmidt, because of his sickliness and other causes could not perform his duty, the congregation would be satisfied if Mr. Schurig his son-in-law took charge of it." In 1 8 13 notice is taken of the fact that the position had become vacant, and a committee was appointed to secure a tenant for the school farm, with the proviso, however, that if the congregation should employ a new schoolmaster, the use of it should revert to the congrega- tion. 224 The New Hanover Lutheran Church. Mr. Kraut, of Lancaster, and Mr. Berndt, of Goshen- hoppen, Reformed, were to be notified that the congrega- tion needed a schoolmaster. The minutes of the council, March 12, 18 14, show by the statement that he com- plained because of a lack of support, that the school- master then was George Miller, and the congregation obligated itself to furnish a stipulated number of pupils, or pay for them. No record of the appointment of Mr. Jaeger as school- master has been found, but the fact that August 22, 1824, the council decided to announce that September fourth the congregation should hold an election to decide whether he should be reappointed shows that he was so employed. The election decided that he should continue to be the teacher. December 7, 1828, Peter Jaeger tendered to the church council his resignation. At a meeting of the council on Friday, December 12, it was determined to advertise in the Reading Adler and in the German Sum- neytown paper for a teacher who could write and read both English and German well, who was able to play the organ and could present good testimonials as to character, for the Lutheran congregation at New Hanover. An election for a new pastor and for a schoolmaster was held February 24, 1829, and Theodore Storb was elected to the latter position, while Rev. Conrad Miller became the successor of his brother, Rev. Jacob Miller. In 1830 it would seem that there had been complaints about the schoolmaster. The council therefore decided that those complaining should bring their accusations be- fore the council and attempt to establish them by sufficient testimony. If any one failed in this he was to be dealt with strenuously. In 1843 a change was made in the agreement with the Schoolmasters and Organists of the Church. 225 schoolmaster, Theodore Storb. Still another change was made in 1846. Although a petition had been handed in, August 1, requesting a general election, on the twenty- fifth of the same month, 1849, tne council resolved to re- new the contract. On the seventeenth of December, 1853, Samuel Boyer was elected organist of the congregation. This then ended the career of Theodore Storb as schoolmaster and organist, after he had filled the position between twenty- four and twenty-five years; it also ended the parochial, or congregational school. The Sunday-school at present connected with the con- gregation is of quite recent origin. This congregation, like a great many others, had to learn from its experience with a union Sunday-school of how little value such institutions are to a Christian congrega- tion. As that is a thing of the past, and one not to be regretted, it will be needless to enter into a lengthy and detailed account thereof. It will therefore be sufficient to record the fact that in 1853 a union Sunday-school was organized, and a con- stitution was adopted. The school was open only from April until the latter part of October, about six months. There is no hint as to the books used or as to the method of teaching. May 4, i860, a meeting was held at the public school house to reorganize. Now a monitor was added and the trus- tees were reduced from ten to five. As another meeting was held in a public school house in 1861, it would seem as if they did not wish to have, or to recognize, any con- nection with the church. But at this point the record ceases. Did the school cease too? It might seem so. It 226 The New Hanover Lutheran Church. is also known that it was not in high favor with the Re- formed congregation. After that time, when Rev. Wendt was the pastor, it would seem to have found its way into the church. After his time, under Rev. Leonard Groh the Sunday-school again found its way back to the public school house and remained there about twenty years longer. Since that time each congregation has had its own Sun- day-school. " On Palm Sunday, 1887, Rev. L. J. Mayer, pastor of the Reformed congregation, announced that all those who wished to attend a Reformed Sunday-school should assemble at the Reformed school house at the church at 2 P. M. on Easter." On Good Friday the Lutheran pastor, invited all who desired to attend a Lutheran Sunday-school to meet in the school room of the Lutheran Church on Easter. Now for more than twenty- two years each congregation has had its own Sunday- school. Many of the teachers and officers have faithfully labored ever since to improve the Christian instruction of the young. CHAPTER X. Meetings of the Synod Held in this Church. 7TRADITI0N tells us, that at first there was an agree- ment that the synod should meet alternately at Philadelphia and Lancaster, as the two congrega- tions were considered of equal importance. While it is possible that there may have been such a tacit understanding, it is very doubtful whether any positive action to that effect was ever taken. On the other hand, it is very evident that before long the synod met in some of the other united congregations. At New Hanover the first meeting of the synod was held June 16-18, 1754. This was the seventh conven- tion, only six years after its organization. At this time, in addition to the Swedish Provost Acrelius and Pastor Unander, there were thirteen pastors and delegates from 227 228 The New Hanover Lutheran Church. Pennsylvania, Maryland, New York and New Jersey, in attendance. Whether Rev. Gerock, of Lancaster, who was invited to be present at this meeting, is included in this number, is not quite certain. But as it is also stated that there were fourteen High German ministers there, and as Rev. Schertlein was likewise there, it would seem as if Gerock were counted with the ministers. This convention deliberated concerning the " internal and external condition of the congregations," as well as the hindrances in the way of a successful prosecution of their work. There was also an account presented before the body concerning a certain M. Engelland, who tried to secure congregations among them, but there was no action taken in the matter. The second synodical meeting at New Hanover was held November 6 and 7, 1768, in connection with the dedication of the present church edifice. It may be of interest to note here that the first con- vention of the synod, held west of the Susquehanna, met at York in 1776, the year immediately preceding the third meeting at New Hanover, and that Rev. Goering, who figured so largely in the history of the church of that sec- tion, was ordained there. The synod met at New Hanover for the third time, May 25, 1777. At this convention only nine ministers were present, viz., Revs. Schmidt, Kunze, Fr. Muh- lenberg, Henry (E.) Muhlenberg, Goering, Lehman, Mueller, Schroeter and H. M. Muhlenberg, besides the president, Rev. J. N. Kurtz, who was so sick that he could not attend the sessions and could take no part in the ser- vices. He was however reelected president. The next meeting was appointed for the first Sunday after Trinity, 1778, at New Hanover. Meetings of Synod Held in this Church. 229 The synod however did not meet at the time appointed, but met about four months later, October 4-6 of the same year. Probably this place was selected again because the British were in full possession of Philadelphia at that time. Nineteen ministers, including three candidates for ordination, were in attendance. One of the latter, a Mr. Frantz, appears to have dropped out of sight altogether. The other two, Lehman and Schroeter, were duly or- dained. In the afternoon of the second day, we are told, " they had some trouble with a man from Gernsheim, who had set up as a preacher." Could this possibly have been Adolph von Gerresheim, who figured in the churches of the Lykens and Pine Valleys, in the vicinity of Gratztown about that time? It is not known now who the man really was. Another matter which has often perplexed those looking up historical facts is clearly solved here. For we are told, " afterwards, they com- pleted the ministerial constitution," showing that the first constitution of the ministerium, contained in the protocol, beginning 178 1, was finally adopted in 1778 at New Hanover. This congregation therefore enjoys the distinction of having witnessed the adoption of the first ministerial (or synodical) constitution, adopted by the Lutheran Church in America — certainly a consider- able distinction for a small country congregation. For not only was this the first German Lutheran congregation in America, but in its final and definite form its constitu- tion was given here to the first Lutheran Synod in America, which was very appropriately called " The Evangelical Lutheran Ministerium of North America." June 19-22, 179 1, the synod again met " in New Han- over Township, Montgomery Co." This time nineteen 16 230 The New Hanover Lutheran Church. ministers were in attendance. Among them we find Rev. Krug, Frederic, Md. ; Schroeter, Hanover, York Co.; Liitge, Shippensburg, and Zimmerman (Carpenter), from far-off Virginia. Rev. Weinland was the resident pastor. One of the transactions worthy of notice at this convention was the granting to Michael Billmyer, of Germantown, the right to publish the new hymn-book, a contract for which was drawn up and signed by all the members of the ministerium present. At this meeting Rev. Caspar Dill received his first license. Rev. Liitge's license was renewed and one was granted to a Mr. Wickerman, who however seems to have been hereafter dropped from the roll. There was like- wise the usual distribution of the proceeds of the Roedel- sheim legacy. The Philadelphia pastors were appointed a committee to have a seal for the ministerium prepared. The cost was to be met from the proceeds of the Roedelsheim legacy. Mt. Joy (now Elizabethtown) and White Oak desired a Mr. Bentz to be licensed. Instead of being licensed he was placed under the supervision of Rev. Muhlenberg, Lancaster, for further preparation. At this meeting Christian Espy, or Espig, also made applica- tion for a license. He was placed under the supervision of Revs. Weinland and Roeller. There were two other applicants — a Mr. Ahl, whom the ministerium rejected absolutely, and a Mr. Stock, whom they advised to keep on teaching some time longer. The licensed candidates, Jung and Zimmerman (Carpenter), were ordained at this meeting. At this convention St. Michael's and Zion's of Phila- delphia, memorialized the synod, asking that the lay dele- gates be " accorded a seat and vote in every meeting of the Meetings of Synod Held in this Church. 231 ministerium." Synod decided to grant this right. Revs. Helmuth and Kunze were appointed a committee to pre- pare a plan for carrying out the measure and to report any needed amendments to the constitution, to put the proposed changes into effect. It might be justly claimed that this was one of the most important of the con- ventions held during the entire history of the synod, for it changed the whole form and constitution of the body to a free representative body of the entire church, instead of one composed of ministers only. Since then synod met at other places and has grown so large that it can no longer be entertained in a small place or in a small church. CHAPTER XL Special Events. Dedications and Anniversaries. *IK1 OT a great deal can be said concerning church dedications in the early days of the church in this country. History is largely silent on this point. The fact that now houses of worship are invariably con- secrated when completed and ready for occupancy, does not prove that this was the case, without exception, in the days of our forefathers. It has however given rise to many traditions concerning such services said to have been conducted, which have no place in fact, yet have figured largely in history. It must always remain a matter of deep regret that no record of the erection of the first log church has been pre- served, nor yet of the pious and self-denying men who 232 jA* JMIHkgJ * 11 IM 9 ^ 11 1 v ■§5*2s iI'itM wP|'/aj3 |SI -S|=SL ^f - -, gwl ' *- D 1 1 1 • - vvlr S^l ^Z& iaa 1 Iwl : I W^sAtlA rM ' r n • W-f-X'^^C^sS y3v V" .*/ i/y^rf Vi1 '•>"'?Jh^ "VS^T***-* §J§ ^^^m> j_i Special Events: Dedications and Anniversaries. 233 united with the Falckners, Henkel, Sandel, Rudman and others in the organizing of this congregation for the worship of Almighty God in the bleak and howling wild- erness. Far different our historic basis would be if two centuries and more could be laid open to view, and the facts scanned as they then existed in the life of the congre- gation. The cornerstone laying and dedication services, if there were any such, of this first church must be passed by in silence without a word of comment. It is equally to be regretted that the affairs concerning the erection and consecration of the second church building share an equal fate, and that there is not even a fair ac- count extant of the erection and dedication of the third church building. It is true a little more is known of that, but it is only a little more. The facts and dates of erec- tion of these two buildings and the length of time they were used for public services are known, but whether they were ever consecrated, or when, is not known. Whilst it may be true that a knowledge of these things is not of much practical value, it would certainly be a mat- ter of great satisfaction to know who the men and women were who figured so prominently in these missionary ef- forts. If we could look back and recall the names of these ancestors, we could in imagination see them enter the portals of their newly erected temple, singing praises to God and proclaiming their undying attachment to the faith of the church, long before they were a free and an inde- pendent people. But we do not know their names, at least not of the larger number of them, so we can only know them by their works and their faith, and thank God that, although their names are unknown to us, He knows them and raised up witnesses for Himself in this western world, of whom their 234 The New Hanover Lutheran Church. children may well be proud; the fruits of whose labors we are now enjoying. May their children prove worthy of the heritage left to them, and may these transmit the same as a rich legacy to their children, and their children's children ! It must be remembered that the history of this church is not entirely exceptional in this respect. Possibly they had no cornerstone laying, and no dedication services for the first three churches. This would not be strange, for it repeatedly happened during the early days of some of the churches in this country that no cornerstones were laid and that there was no subsequent dedication of the building. What the real cause was of this state of things is difficult to determine. It may be that the scar- city of ministers to perform these functions had something to do with it, or it may have been indifference; or the desire to occupy the building, rather than consecration services, was uppermost in the minds of these early pioneers. Whatever the cause the fact remains, that numerous churches erected between 1775 and 1850, and possibly some of earlier date, were simply erected, then occupied and used by the congregations without further ceremony. The erection of the present church building during the pastorate of Rev. Ludwig Voigt has a different story to relate. There had been a cornerstone laying in 1767, and the building, when completed, was formally consecrated in November, 1768, to the service of the Triune God, by the " Evangelical Lutheran Ministerium of North Amer- ica " called in special session for that purpose. The his- tory of these services has already been given and need not be repeated in this connection. In the year 1801 a new pipe organ was introduced and Special Events: Dedications and Anniversaries. 235 probably also consecrated. The agreement made in 1800 between the congregation and Christian Dieffenbach, or- gan-builder, expressly states that the first half of the payment for the organ shall be made when the organ is dedicated. There is however no record at hand of the date of dedication or of the services which may have been conducted. When the congregation took up the brick floor and sub- stituted a wooden one, and renovated the entire church building in 1826, that would apparently have been a fav- orable opportunity for the celebration of the one hundred and twenty-fifth anniversary of the congregation, as well as the sixtieth anniversary of the erection of the present church, but there is no account of any special services either of commemoration or of consecration. In 1867 the congregation determined again to repair and renovate the church; this probably came as a thank offering unto the Lord in that he allowed the congrega- tion to celebrate the one hundredth anniversary of the laying of the cornerstone. That they intended the work of renovation to be thorough is shown by the fact that they resolved to put in new pews, windows, pulpit, doors, etc., at a cost of $3,000, besides labor voluntarily rend- ered. Before this renovation took place the congrega- tion celebrated its centennial, which took place on May 11 and 12, 1867. Rev. B. W. Schmauk, of Lebanon, preached the centennial sermon. Rev. J. B. Rath, of Bethlehem, and Rev. Laitzle, of Pottstown, also preached sermons on that occasion, while Rev. George F. Miller, of Pottstown, and Rev. L. J. Mayer, pastor of the local Re- formed church, assisted the pastor, Rev. L. Groh, in these services. The services no doubt left a lasting impression upon the minds and hearts of the members of the congre- 236 The New Hanover Lutheran Church. gation, since during the Summer succeeding these centennial services, they were busy making preparation and gathering funds for the work about to be undertaken. So success- ful were they that by October they were ready to proceed with this work, but the pastor, Rev. L. Groh, makes the statement: " as the present edifice was erected in the fifth jubilee of the Reformation, 1767, the seventh Jubilee (1867) naturally coincided with its centennial." So this anniversary of the seventh Jubilee of the Reformation was likewise to be celebrated in the church prior to its renova- tion; this took place on October 26 and 27, 1867. Those who took part in these services, besides the pastor, were Rev. John Kohler, Rev. Laitzle and Rev. Fleckenstine. These two events celebrated in the same year seem to have been the most impressive of this character ever celebrated in the congregation, and mark the beginning of a new era of anniversary services. Besides money being contributed for church repairs, a liberal jubilee fund was gathered among the members for Muhlenberg College, at Allen- town. Less than a month had passed by and the work of reno- vation has been enthusiastically begun. Everything seems to have been taken out of the building, the walls, floor, ceiling and roof alone having been spared. All the doors but one were walled up, the galleries changed, the organ and pulpit found new places in the church, the steeple was erected upon the building and a new bell provided for it. Exactly one year, from November 25, 1867 to November 20, 1868, was consumed in the performance of the task set before the congregation. The anniversaries the year preceding left impressions, and set the pace for future actions, so nothing short of re-dedication services could now satisfy the congregation. Accordingly, such Special Events : Dedications and Anniversaries. 237 services were conducted on November 21 and 22, 1868. The venerable Rev. Prof. C. F. Schaeffer, D.D., pro- fessor in the Theological Seminary in Philadelphia, preached the dedicatory sermon. The pastor was also assisted by the neighboring pastors, Rev. W. B. Fox, Rev. John Kohler and Rev. W. G. Laitzle. The services were contributive of a great deal of good, and left the congrega- tion ever ready to keep the venerable building in the best possible condition. In the year 1885, at the close of the same pastorate the church was again repaired, but in a moderate way. The roof was re-covered with slate, the walls frescoed, the woodwork painted, and other necessary repairs made. At the re-opening services on September 20, 1885, the Rev. Prof. W. J. Mann, D.D., LL.D., professor of the Theological Seminary at Mt. Airy, Philadelphia, preached a German sermon at the morning service. Rev. B. M. Schmucker, D.D., and Rev. D. K. Kepner, of Pottstown, spoke during the afternoon and Rev. O. P. Smith, of Trappe, preached in the evening. These services were enriched by special music under the auspices of Prof. Young from the Kutztown Normal School, accompanied by a male quartette. Perhaps the most important of all the anniversaries is " The Bi-centennial of the Lutheran Congregation in New Hanover," observed on the twenty-eighth and twenty- ninth of November, 1903. This was the first bicentennial of any German Evangelical Lutheran congregation cele- brated in this country — the first one of the kind in North America. The details of the program will not be re- produced here. One feature however deserves notice — the majority of those taking part in the services were sons of the congregation itself, or of its immediate neighbors — 238 The New Hanover Lutheran Church. bearing the names of men prominent in the congrega- tion, Kurtz, Fegley, Bertolet, Fox, etc. The president of the ministerium, Rev. F. J. F. Schantz, preached the first sermon. His position naturally implied that his sermon should be historic, and presented this congregation in its relation to the synod. In the evening of the same day the speakers were Rev. U. S. G. Bertolet, of Philadel- phia, and Rev. I. B. Kurtz, of Pottstown. On the fol- lowing day Rev. Prof. G. F. Spieker, D.D., professor in the Theological Seminary at Mt. Airy, preached in Ger- man at the morning service. In the afternoon the Rev. O. P. Smith, D.D., Rev. W. B. Fox and Julius F. Sachse, Litt.D., of Philadelphia, made appropriate and interest- ing addresses. The evening services, at which Rev. Prof. H. N. Fegley, D.D., and Rev. W. O. Fegley spoke, closed the celebration. These various sermons and addresses were interspersed with hymns and anthems by the choir and congregation, thereby making the celebration services pleasant, attractive and profitable. It is to be hoped that, as a result of this celebration, the congregation will feel renewed attachment to its confes- sions, a stronger impulse to activity and earnestness in the work of the church, and a greater zeal in the upbuilding of the Kingdom of the Lord among themselves and among others, so that present and future members may continue faithful, that heaven may crown every effort to Christian- ize the world. At the celebration of this anniversary the thought was expressed that as the congregation occupied such a unique position, and possessed such a precious herit- age, it behooved its members to cherish the treasure they possessed, and that the least they could do in an external manner was to keep the church property in excellent repair, Special Events: Dedications and Anniversaries. 239 so that they show by their works that they are at least interested in that which they possessed, having received it by the grace of God as an inheritance from their ancestors. Scarce had the echoes of the words subsided when another renovation, more elaborate and extravagant than any be- fore undertaken, was under way. During the year 1904 everything within the walls of the church was again re- moved, a cellar dug under the floor, a heating plant in- stalled, new memorial windows placed in the church, new pews, a new floor, new pulpit and altar furniture, etc., at the cost of nearly $6,000, which was readily and promptly contributed by the members and friends of the congrega- tion. In January, 1905, a reconsecration service was held. These services following so closely the bicentennial cele- bration were not as elaborate as circumstances would war- rant, yet there was an all-day service. Rev. O. P. Smith, D.D., preached the principal sermon in German at the morning service. Rev. L. J. Bickel, Rev. Charles Dapp, Rev. A. M. Weber and Rev. I. B. Kurtz assisted in these services, and preached sermons or else brought the con- gratulations from their respective congregations. When these services were ended the feeling was ex- pressed that now everything was in such shape that prob- ably during the lifetime of the present generation no fur- ther change or improvement need be made. Nevertheless there remained in the gallery an organ that had now seen service during one hundred and four years, so within the space of three short months kind donors offered to present a new pipe organ to the congregation. After the congre- gation agreed to relinguish the old organ for a new one, a contract was made with Bates and Culley, of Philadel- phia, to build an organ, using some of the material in their present instrument, of such a value as the contributions 240 The New Hanover Lutheran Church. might justify. By the end of July the congregation re- joiced in an instrument substantially built, valued at $2,- 450. This organ is so thoroughly complete that when it was in position it had no peer in the surrounding commu- nity and is entirely satisfactory. The congregation owes its sincere thanks to those who have so liberally contributed towards this worthy object. This fact calls forth the last service of this character. On August 6, 1905, dedication services were conducted, consecrating the organ for sacred purposes. Rev. J. H. Umbenhen, Ph.D., of Pottsville, preached a German ser- mon at the morning service. Rev. Geo. W. Genszler preached during the afternoon services. This was fol- lowed by addresses of visiting clergymen, while Rev. N. F. Schmidt, of Schwenksville, preached the closing sermon in the evening. The weather was unpropitious, yet the spirits ran high and brought fair audiences during the entire day. Besides the anthems and hymns rendered dur- ing the day, under the direction of Mr. William F. Lamb, organist and chorister of the congregation, a number of selections and organ voluntaries were excellently rendered by Mr. Roy Bush, of Royersford, and Mr. Rooke Loomis, of Nantmeal Village, the latter being totally blind, yet a musician of no mean ability. This completes the history of these interesting services in the sincere hope that the same may call forth reconse- cration of heart and life to greater devotion, and praises to God for his infinite goodness to his people. CHAPTER XII. Historical Events, i. Trials and Struggles of the Congregation. /■V UCH might be written about the early strug- gles of this congregation, as well as concerning those of many other churches of the provincial period. It might however be truthfully said, that, perhaps as far as the mere struggle for existence was concerned, the people of this community were not re- quired to deny themselves to the same extent as some others, nor yet in the same manner, e. g., the people of the Schoharie Hills, in Heidel- berg and Lynn Townships, in Lehigh County and Albany, Berks County. There, besides being harassed by the In- 241 242 The New Hanover Lutheran Church. dians, some dug caves to afford them temporary shelter or homes, and others occupied their large wagons as sleep- ing rooms and parlors, and used the protecting branches of some large oak or chestnut tree as the roof of their dining room and kitchen. Some of our day, no doubt, think that experiences of that kind are peculiar to the far-distant West. Possibly this may have been so in recent years. But in those earlier days they also occurred here in the East. That these conditions were existing is shown by the following petitions for protection. Petitions of Citizens to Governor Patrick Gordon for Protection Against the Invasion of the Indians. Two interesting documents, which will be reproduced, in this connection, have been furnished through the kind- ness of Dr. Julius F. Sachse, throw light upon several matters of importance. The information derived from these proved that the in- habitants in this community were already numerous prior to the year 1720, the date of one of these petitions. This one contains the signatures of seventy-seven persons, most of them, perhaps- all, land holders and heads of families, with wives and children. It also shows the condition and fear of the inhabitants, at the time, also that the attacks of the Indians were frequent and hostile, and that pro- vincial protection was necessary in order to live in safety and in peace. These petitions to the Governor also show that these people were no squatters because they speak of their plan- tations as being their own; nor were they simply occupying these places temporarily, since some of the signatures of J& &B9#*»-«f tyafccl CwQrtt &9>~ fou^^ar A^~^ $^o^ J 0u^ yG*-*^- ^®«2 upturn- &S £04*1 h Pi o fa < z < -i fa H .&-«■ a •1 >■>.«- ■all 4* * rt C *-■ ™ oj w fii a -a -a a jy J .g .3 <= to E « - O 2 bfl /. — _ i2 TJ 3 M ft '3 a> to to — _ J3 h .2 « 5 a « bO •44 . c w 2 s '£• « 5 « B g ^ £ S3 S » S « 2 3 cj -S g B o 8 a w •0~ * w -a ja 1 £ c a. 2 => W C o .2 * -S ' 73 « * S E » T3 — •— > rs. n C >+? bfi o o u, oj to o bfl 3d TO 1_i — cs >• ■*-' s- in tt o ° D to . o >> (JO W h a fa c fa bfi «J u, ™ bB £ ,S -o u .s -* « H h 2 £ £ M — c w _ u w '^ ft CQ (A .£ "=<) <° u « 5 .3 w .- u "-aw (J <*H «2 w o J= h J3 -F c 3 -3 £ 'a . • 1 .a s « it a -5 ^ .r --Z w « « 2 J3 c "° I « ^1 ■£ Q2 w ^3 « *f o 9 e « - e .2 -^ <- ft W) w w S f E 3 w~ "° H ra a g m s ^ w c, cs Ew 1- 5 5 ■ ; « co >, W 2 -° 3 a> ~ — ft « a W ^3 o 13 S t; w jj o D.'S- W £ T3 E .2 o E * S E ^ w cu ■S UN S c c a J a rt 'w J3 bO *E o .-, 3 W Un CU to CCJ ^ _S w to "2 ft ■" •- — -a w r-L 2 o w •a h4 ,0 P *-i a> W M «5 >, C5 S - .a o ■ S .= 3 W r- !" 0 Aw •^ r M I z < fa CO ^S •3 h c m u .
