Second Presbyterian Church IN GERMANTOWN Fiftieth Anniversary Year Book r ^^ 1907-1908 John Harvey Lee PASTOR \ The Fiftieth Anniversary Year Book ^^^ .VV^^'-f^Vff^ ^ FEB 17 1944 OF THE ■^OfilCALiti]^ Second Presbyterian Church IN GERMANTOWN, PHILADELPHIA 1907-1908 Issued by authority of the Session May, 1908 PRESe OF i. BURBANK A CO. PHILADELPHIA PASTOR'S GREETING To the Members of the Congregation : — It is with a deep sense of gratitude to God that we pre- sent to you this Fiftieth Anniversary Year Book. We are grateful for the fifty years of growing life, which He has given to our Church, grateful for the abundant fruitage of these years, grateful that the fiftieth year is the best of all, especially in the manifestation of Christian benevolence. As the Church passes into the new half-century of her life, we feel that she has clearer vision of her mission, and a better command of her vital force than ever in her history. She is truly pressing on. In the exhibition of her growing desire to serve, she is giving expression to the best spirit of the age, and we prophesy for her an ever-enlarging sphere of activity. In recognition of the Fiftieth Anniversary, the Pastor's Historical Sermon, preached on December 29th, is herein- after given in full, besides a brief historical sketch, the rolls of Pastors, Ruling Elders, Deacons and Trustees, a Summary of the Church Reports for fifty years, and a hst of the Church Memorials, all of which are commended to your careful study. The yearly reports show a very healthy state of the Church life. While there is abundant room for improve- ment and development, we rejoice that through the conse- crated efforts of our members so much is being accom- THE SECOND PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH plished for our Lord and Master. The large excess of our contributions for Missionary and benevolent purposes over those for congregational expenses is v^rorthy of special note. Eastminster Chapel has shov^^n a very decided increase in numbers and vital strength during the tv^^elvemonth. The present building, occupied only a year ago, is taxed to its full capacity by the eager members and adherents of the Chapel, and a larger equipment is becoming an imperative necessity. It is a source of much gratification that this work has from the beginning been deemed vs^orthy of such generous and hearty support on your part. Rejoicing over what God has wrought through us as a people, let us go forth to still more bountiful sowing in preparation for more bountiful reaping, being assured that "He that supplieth seed to the sower and bread for food, shall supply and multiply your seed for sowing, and increase the fruits of your righteousness: ye being enriched in every thing unto all liberality, which worketh through us thanks- giving to God." Faithfully, your Pastor, JOHN HARVEY LEE. The Second Presbyterian Church in Germantown Greeue and Tulpohocken Streets PASTOR Rev.

THE SECOND PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH Administration of the Sacraments The Sacrament of the Lord's Supper is administered on the morning of the third Sabbath of March, June, Sep- tember, and December. A Preparatory Service is held on the Wednesday evening immediately preceding each Com- munion Sabbath. The Sacrament of Baptism is administered to adults immediately before the Communion Service. The Sacrament of Baptism is administered to infants when either parent is a church member, on the Sab- bath next following the Communion, in connection with the Morning Worship, and also on * 'Children's Day" (second Sabbath in June). The attention of parents is directed to the rule of the "Directory for Worship," that baptism is "usually to be administered in the church, in the presence of the congregation." It is the custom of this church to present a Bible to each baptized child of the church on reaching the age of seven years. The presentation takes place on "Children's Day." Admission to Membership Persons presenting certificates of membership or letters of commendation from other Evangelical Churches are admitted to full membership by the Session without exami- nation. Persons desiring to unite with the church upon confes- sion of their faith in Christ, may present themselves for examination at any regular meeting of the Session, particu- larly the meetings on the Wednesday and Friday evenings before the Communion. "In the Presbyterian Church no acceptance of the doctrines of the Church is required of any communicant, IN GERMANTOWN beyond a personal faith in Jesus Christ as Son of God and Saviour of the World, and a sincere acceptance of Him as Lord and Master." (Declaration of General Assembly, 1906.) New members, previously received by the session, are publicly welcomed by the church in connection with the Communion Service.

Half pews and single sittings are rented to those who do not wish an entire pew. Rentals are made for the entire year, and are payable quarterly in advance. The Pew Commit- tee is ready to assign pews and sittings at any time to those who desire regular places in the church. Members are earnestly urged to do their utmost for the maintenance of the local church work, both by taking sittings and by contributing regularly through the Sabbath collections. Annual offerings are made for the missionary and benevo- lent work of the church on the first Sabbath of each month, as follows: — January. — Presbyterian Orphanage. February. — Board of Publication and Sabbath-school Work. March. — Home Missions in Pennsylvania. April. — The College Board. May. — Board of Foreign Missions. June. — Board of Education. July. — Pennsylvania Bible Society. August. — American Sunday School Union and Amer- ican Tract Society. September. — Board of Church Erection. October.— Board of Ministerial Rehef. November. — Board of Home Missions. December. — Board of Missions for Freedmen. For these offerings sets of envelopes, sufficient for a year, IN GERMANTOWN are furnished the members of the congregation. The Session desires that at least one set of envelopes be found in each home, and urges their regular use upon all contribu- tors. It would encourage the use of envelopes by individuals in a family, and to that end will gladly furnish additional sets to any applicants. The numbers on the envelopes are registered with the Clerk of Session, who checks them up after the contri- butions have been collected by the Treasurer, so that the amount one may give for any cause need not be known to any but himself. The Session is anxious only to know the fact that the members are regular contributors. The envelopes will enable one to make his contributions for the various objects at any time. It is unjust to make the sharing in the benevolent work of the church contin- gent on attendance at the particular service when the offering is made. Offerings should be planned beforehand, and if providentially hindered from bringing them in person, members should make sure that the different causes do not suffer by their absence. At the quarterly Communion services offerings are made for the Deacons' Fund, for the care of the poor of the congregation. The offering on Thanksgiving Day is for the German- town Hospital. Special offerings are appointed by the Session from time to time for such other objects as are deemed worthy of the support of the church. In 1905, in response to an appeal from the Session, there was created by voluntary contributions a "Session's Benev- olent Fund," which is still maintained. This is designed THE SECOND PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH to provide a fund, out of which the Session can make appropriations in response to the special calls that come to it every year from those engaged in various forms of benevo- lent or Christian service. Members are requested to make the church the medium of their contributions to benevolent and missionary work. Certain institutions have their authorized representatives in our congregation, and members may make their contribu- tions through these representatives, as follows: — McAll Mission in France. — Mrs. Abraham R. Perkins. Presbyterian Orphanage. — Mrs. John McArthur Harris, and Miss Elva Porter. Presbyterian Home for tVidows and Single Women, JVest Philadelphia.— Miss M. Ella Kimball. Presbyterian Home for Aged Couples and Aged Men, Bala. — Miss Margaret Boyle, and Mrs. Howard Ketcham. IValdensian Church in Italy. — Mrs. M. Isadore Dutton. Presbyterian Hospital. — Mrs. William E. Chapman. Wimen's Christian Association, Germantown. — Miss Henrietta G. Elliot. Young Women's Christian Association, Philadelphia. — Mrs. G. Ralston Ayres, Mrs. D. Linn Coyle, and Miss Emma W. Siner. Contributions to other institutions may be made through the Treasurer of Session. Our Missionary Activities The main foreign missionary work of our church is done through our Missionaries, the Rev. and Mrs. George W. IN GERMANTOWN Marshall, of Yeung Kong, South China, whose support we have been providing since 1903. The Yeung Kong station ranks among the most successful in the whole Pres- byterian Mission field. Through the Woman's and Tulpohocken Societies, half of the salary of Miss Bessie T. Milliken, a teacher in the Joshi Gakuin or Girls' School, of Tokyo, Japan, is provided. The McAll Mission in France and the Waldensian work in Italy are also generously supported. Our Home Missionary Activities are more diverse. Since 1903 our church has been supporting the Rev. and Mrs. Claude R. Brodhead, until December, 1906, laboring among the Navajo Indians at Jewett, N. M., but now stationed at Laguna, N. M., among the Pueblos. We have a special interest in Mrs. Brodhead on account of her being a child of the Second Church. Our nearest Home Mission work is Eastminster Chapel, on the east side of Germantown, whose support is guaran- teed by our church. (A summary of the Eastminster work is given elsewhere.) The Italian work in Germantown is well supported through the Woman's, Tulpohocken and King's Daugh- ters Societies, as are also various other Schools under the Woman's Home Board. By combining the church and Sabbath-school offerings for the Board of Publication and Sabbath-school work, we provide for half the support of a Sabbath-school Missionary. Home Missions in Pennsylvania are also liberally remem- bered, as are the other Church Boards, in goodly sums through annual offerings.

Assistance was rendered to six- teen persons on thirty-five different occasions. Much of the assistance given was for the reHef of tempo- rary distress, and in every case we believe it was received with heartfelt gratitude to the church that did not Hmit its ministrations to spiritual things. Sometimes the help needed has required no money at all. Advice given and the quiet assurance of our sympathy has straightened out difficulties, restored courage, and made possible what seemed hopeless before. In all our giving we have tried to make our less fortunate brothers feel that we are only sharing with them what the Lord had more bountifully bestowed upon us, as a church.

Perkins In these latter days when we hear so much about the "forward movement" in missions and in evangelistic work at home, it is a pleasure to report that the movement of our society has been in consonance with the work at large. At our meetings, which have numbered sixteen, seven with home missionary subjects, eight with foreign, and one general, at the beginning of the work in the Fall, and in which thirty-four women have taken active part, some of them several times, at these meetings, the increased attend- ance has been noteworthy. Our average record is thirty- two, with a minimum of twenty-two and a maximum of forty-two, as against an average of twenty-three for last year. Of those outside our own church who have spoken at the meetings are Mrs. Howell, Corresponding Secretary for Japan of the Women's Foreign Board, Mrs. Newkirk, Corresponding Secretary for China, and Miss Miller, of the Italian Mission School in Germantown. IN GERMANTOWN In our money giving there has been a large increase. We have maintained our subscriptions of former years to the work at home and abroad (to the salary of Miss Milliken, in Tokyo, to the Indian School at Tucson, to the Ashville School, to the Laura Sunderland School, to the Barber Memorial) and to these v^^e have added a contribution of $475 toward the building fund of the ItaHan Mission in Germantown. Our usual box was sent to Mr. Robinson, in Oregon, and while it was a difficult one it was generously filled with all the needed articles through the tireless efforts of the box committee. Sewing meetings were held during the Fall to prepare for the box, but in November these were discon- tinued for the Winter. Two receptions have been given during the year, one last June to Mr. Dunlap, on his departure to the PhiHppines, and one in November to our Pastor and wife on the Fifth Anni- versary of Mr. Lee's installation. Tea has been served monthly after the missionary meet- ings, that the women might enjoy a social hour together. Early in February the Women's Societies combined to give a musical tea at the Manse to increase the interest of the women in the work of the church. Mrs. Thorpe and Mrs. Turner, together with beautiful music, gave us an interesting and dehghtful afternoon. Later in the month the Sunday-school, with our assistance, gave a Bazaar of Nations to raise the money for the Italian work. The supper was managed by a committee of *the society and was entirely successful. Our topic cards are a speaking report of the Missionary Committee's faithful services. 23 THE SECOND PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH This year there has been but one break in our numbers. New workers have been added unto us, bringing fresh enthusiasm with them. Wider knowledge has broadened our faith, deeper spirituality has brought with it a finer insight and a higher hope that we, the children and heirs of God are at last entering into our inheritance, the winning of the world to our Master. ''Nevertheless we, according to His promise, look for a new heaven and a new earth wherein dwelleth righteousness." SOPHIA WEYGANDT HARRIS, Recording Secretary.

McIlhenny TWENTY-FOURTH ANNUAL REPORT Our Missionary Meetings have been held jointly with the Woman's Society on the last Tuesday of each month, and have proven most interesting and helpful. The sewing meetings have been held the first and third Mondays of each month. The time was devoted to sewing for the missionary boxes and to making sixty-four articles for the Presbyterian Hospital. We have had an average attend- ance of fourteen at these meetings. Five new members have been welcomed, making our present membership 31. By means of the ''sacrifice offering," amounting this year to $132.50, and the annual dues, much has been accomplished. A large box of clothing, valued at $200, was sent in November to a missionary and his family in Minnesota. Two barrels went to the Girls' Industrial School, at Aiken, S. C, and a generous contribution was made to the Italian Mission in Germantown. At one of the January meetings the President asked us to raise a special fund for Foreign Missions to mark the Fiftieth Anniversary of the Church. The members entered into this with a will, and a total of %2^0 was contributed, this being five times the usual offering of the society. It was joyously appropriated to the Girls' School at Sidon, 26 IN GERMANTOWN Syria; the Famine Sufferers of India; Miss Milliken's salary in Japan; and the General Fund of the Foreign Board. Next year the society will be twenty-five years old. We hope that the members may be inspired to still greater efforts under the blessing of God, so as to make our silver anniversary a most worthy one. H. GERTRUDE DOUGLASS, Secretary.

Miss Helen Ayres The King's Daughters Missionary Society has had both a pleasant and a profitable year, and the meetings have been enjoyed by all. Until Christmas we met at the homes of the various members to sev*^ for the Christmas box, which was sent to one of the schools at Clear Creek, W. Va. The box was most satisfactory in every way — containing dolls, clothing, toys, games, etc., etc. We also sent Bibles to the "Girls' Home School," at Lawson, W. Va. After completing this work we disbanded, and, with other young women, formed a "Study Class," which has been meeting every Monday afternoon with Mrs. John McArthur Harris, to study Dr. Arthur H. Smith's book, "The Uplift of China." These hours of study have been most helpful and inspiring. The treasurer's report shows $31.21 collected from our entertainment, which, with the dues ($6), was all expended on the Christmas box.

Heyl Treasurer . . . Howard W. Ambruster The year has been a most successful one for the Brother- hood. The membership has been increased to eighty-three and along with this increase there has been a manifest growth in the interest of the men of the church in the work of the organization. Under the auspices of the Brotherhood a Men's Bible Class has met regularly Sunday mornings since the early Fall, under the leadership of the Rev. Dr. William J. Erdman. The attendance and interest has been most encouraging. Mr. H. K. Caskey has been the chairman of the Bible Class Committee. The Ushering Committee, of which Mr. John W. Doriss is the chairman, has thoroughly systematized the ushering at the church services and insured the efficient and faithful performance of this very important branch of the work. Good work has also been done at Eastminster Chapel by the Committee for Work Among Boys, Mr. Brison Howie, chairman. A Boys' Club has been organized, which meets weekly under the personal supervision of the members of the committee. The call for funds for this work has met with a gratifying response. Members of the Brotherhood have done efficient service on behalf of the Local Option Movement and are still zealous for this good cause. 29 THE SECOND PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH The semi-annual meeting on November 19th, and the annual meeting on April lOth, both held at "Manheim," were well attended and addressed by prominent speakers, among whom were the Rev. John B. Laird, D.D., John H. Converse, Esq., the Rev. James Beveridge Lee, D.D., and the Rev. Ernest E. Baker, D.D. At the latter meeting the officers above were chosen for the forthcoming year.

Mrs. John Harvey Lee .. r Mrs. Charles T. Evans Vice-Presidents . . | ^^^ Abraham Jenney Secretary . . . Mrs. William H. Turner Treasurer .... Mrs. Robert T. Cavis The work at Eastminster Chapel continues to enjoy prosperity. In July, 1907, the Rev. Harle W. Hathaway was appointed Minister-in-Charge, and under his wise and efficient leadership, substantial progress has been made. A young people's organization, known as **The Samaritans," has been formed, besides a Boys' Club under the care of the Church Brotherhood. The Woman's Society, in addition to holding the regular missionary and sewing meetings, gave a number of socials, and raised and contributed $160.47, of which $11.50 was given to Home Missions, $11.50 to For- eign Missions and about $125 added to the "Building Fund." The Sabbath-school has grown steadily and the attendance at the weekly meetings has been good. The Chapel contributed for its own support $335, an increase of $50 over the previous year. During the Summer of I907> Sabbath Evening Union Services of Eastminster and Somerville Chapels were held, under the direction of a joint Committee of the First and Second Church Sessions. The favor which met these services in both chapels encouraged the committee not only to continue them through the year, but to hold morning services as well, the meetings alternating between the two chapels, and Mr. Hathaway and Mr. Mackie taking their turns preaching. These services have been well supported and it is possible that out of them will develop, ere long, a Union Church composed of the members of the two chapels. 32 The Second Presbyterian Church in Germantown IN GERMANTOWN The Fiftieth Anniversary On Tuesday, December 31, 1907, our church was fifty years old. In celebration of this happy event a program of most interesting services was carried out extending over the week of December 29th. On that morning the Pastor preached a Historical Sermon, which will be found in full on the following pages. The Rev. Alexander McCullagh, D.D., the fifth Pastor of the church, assisted in the service. In the evening the Sabbath-school and Young People's Celebration was held, addresses being made by Mr. Penrose R. Perkins, Superintendent of Summit Sabbath-school; Mr. Abbott H. Chase, Superintendent of Eastminster Sabbath-school; the Rev. Alexander Henry, D.D., Secretary of the Board of Publication and Sabbath-school Work, and the Rev. Willis L. Gelston, Secretary for Young People's Work. Tuesday evening, the 31st, was fittingly observed as Anniversary Evening. Greetings were brought in person by the Rev. Horace G. Hinsdale, D.D., the first Pastor of the church, and the Rev. Archibald McCullagh, D.D., the fifth Pastor, and a letter specially written for the occasion by the Rev. Charles P. H. Nason, D.D., the seventh Pastor, was read. Fraternal greetings were also spoken by the Rev. W. Beatty Jennings, D.D., of the First Church; the Rev. R. P. D. Bennett, of the Summit Church; the Rev. Boudinot Seeley, Jr., of the Wakefield Church; the Rev. John Calhoun, of the Mount Airy Church; the Rev. William Porter Lee, of the Westside Church; the Rev. Harle W. Hathaway, of Eastminster Chapel, and the Rev. John B. Laird, D.D., of the Frankford Church. After an informal reception in the church parlors, a very impressive 33 THE SECOND PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH midnight service was held, Dudley Buck's *'Song of the Night" being rendered, and the new year ushered in with prayer and praise. Friday evening, January 3d, was observed as Missionary Evening. Greetings were read from our Church Mission- aries, Mr. and Mrs. Marshall, and Mr. and Mrs. Brodhead, and addresses made by Mr. Robert E. Speer, Secretary of the Board of Foreign Missions, and the Rev. Charles L. Thompson, D.D., Secretary of the Board of Home Mis- sions. The Anniversary Week was concluded with the services on Sabbath, January 5th. At the morning service the Rev. Wilham Henry Roberts, D.D., LL.D., Moderator of the General Assembly, gave an address on "The Presbyter- ian Church and Our Country," and in the evening the Rev. Charles R. Erdman, of Princeton Theological Semi- nary, spoke on ''The Church and EvangeHsm." The Pastor presided at all the services of the week, with the exception of the Sabbath-school and Young People's Serv- ice, when Mr. Abraham R. Perkins, Superintendent of the Sabbath-school, was in charge. The celebration will long remain not only as a delight- ful memory, but as an inspiration for larger and better church life. The arrangements for the celebration of the Anniversary were in charge of the Pastor and a special committee con- sisting of: Abraham R. Perkins, chairman, John McArthur Harris, John W. Moffly, Walter F. Hagar, Samuel K. Marshall, Joseph B. Mitchell, William H. Bradbury, John H. Brockie, John W. Doriss, S. Rowland Morgan, Mrs. William Harvey, Mrs. A. Graham Elliot, Miss Frances A. Kimball, Miss Mary Halloway, and Miss Juliet F. Groves. 34 IN GERMANTOWN Fifty Fruitful Years Historical Sermon preached by the Pastor, Rev. John Harvey Lee, Sabbath morning, December 29, 1907, in celebration of the Fiftieth Anniversary of the Church. ''^ One generation shall praise Thy works to another and shall declare Thy mighty acts.''—VSAhU 145:4. If history is the impress of God's hand on the life of the world, then the recording of it is His highest praise. Over every story of human achievement might be written the words: ''What hath God wrought!" and every true narra- tive might be the score of a majestic song in praise of the excellency of His power. That the poets and prophets of Israel were ever telling of the doings of God in the develop- ment of their national life does not argue for greater activity on the part of God in that land, but only that they were keener students and more thorough philosophers of history than their neighbors. God is at work everywhere. His habitation has no bounds and His activity is not circum- scribed. It is our duty to study His works, to acquaint ourselves with His mighty acts that we may declare them in His praise to our fellows, and thus enlarge the glory of His name in the earth. As it is vain for us to build except the Lord build with us, so it is vain for us to celebrate these fifty years unless the prayer of our hearts be: "Not unto us, not unto us, but unto Thy name, O Lord, be the glory!" With a clear conviction that God has been working here in this church, we would joyfully make record of this and eagerly declare to you some of His mighty acts. The birth-year of this church, 1857, was a memorable year in our country's annals. The social and political con- 35 THE SECOND PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH ditions were far from ideal. It was in 1857 that the Slave Power, which for years had been growing in tyrannic inso- lence, won its greatest victory in the Dred Scott Decision of the Supreme Court — a victory however that brought the North to her feet and hastened the final undoing of the whole iniquitous system. The same year witnessed the desperate fight for the establishment of slavery in the new State of Kansas. It was in 1857 that the open defiance of our government by Brigham Young, in Utah, had its fruitage in the Mountain Meadows Massacre — the foulest stain on the pages of our history. And it was the year of the great panic. Those who recall that terrible year will unite in declaring the panics of 1873 and 1893 and the present year only insig- nificant disturbances in comparison with the convulsions of that period. ''There was no money and there was no credit. The banking institutions of this country numbered less than 1,500, and 1,440 of them put up their shutters. Fifty-one thousand firms and corporations went into bankruptcy. Ships loaded to the decks turned back from our Atlantic harbors without having opened their hatches. There was no buyer; there was no market. Half-completed business blocks and elegant unoccupied houses stood staring with dead eyes upon deserted streets or unfrequented wastes; and scores of railways, arrested in mid-career, remained for years after 'a right of way and a streak of rust.' " But all was not dark in 1857. Religiously and spiritually it was a year of years, for the "Fulton Street Prayer Meet- ing," of New York, was born that Fall. Like most great movements it had small beginnings, only the scriptural "two or three" attending the first meetings. But before 36 IN GERMANTOWN one could realize it the fire began to spread with great rapidity. The church in Fulton street was crowded every day at the noon hour. Soon other churches were opened for the noon-day prayer meetings, until there were twenty held daily throughout the city. And from those centers the fire of revival spread throughout the State and nation. "There was little or no preaching, yet there was scarcely a town of five hundred population in which daily prayer was not publicly held. Every available room was pressed into service. Theatres, academies, district schools — wherever people could meet for prayer, prayer was offered. And before the season closed, it is estimated not less than 1,000,000 souls were added to the communicant rolls of the evangelical churches of our land. It was the Lord's doing, and in no eyes is it more marvelous now than it was in the eyes of those who had most to do with it." It is an interesting fact that just when the revival fires were sweeping most fiercely over the land our church was born. There is no record, however, of any direct connection between the two. The movement for the organization of this church seems to have been begun simply "in conse- quence of the rapidly increasing population of German- town" and the desire on the part of certain zealous souls to strengthen the cause of Presbyterianism in this community. In the sermon of Dr. Hinsdale at the dedication of the chapel, in 1858, he told of the motive in these words: It became .... the imperative conviction of a certain number of Christian men, attached to the doctrines and order of our church, and solicitous for the spiritual welfare of their families, that there was an urgent call as well as ample room for another church of our denomination." 37 THE SECOND PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH It is not necessary for me at this time to recount the suc- cessive steps by which the organization was effected and the church estabhshed. I must bear record, however, to the large faith and unflagging zeal with which the httle band took up the burden of the new work, bore patiently the misinterpretation of their motives by outsiders, and without outside help maintained the services and planned for the future. Of the twelve charter members, only three had been connected with a Germantown church, thus showing that the work did not draw materially upon the resources of any church already established. In fact throughout her history our church has enriched the other churches of Ger- mantown far more than it has been enriched by them. Germantown was not what it is today. There was no Pennsylvania R. R., no trolley to the city. The town was still an independent municipaHty. Tulpohocken Street was on the very edge of the built-up portion and the whole community sparsely settled. The West Side yielded to the East Side the palm of popularity for residence. Even as late as 1870 the pastor, then retiring, spoke of the field as a limited one, in these words: "I called this a pleasant field of labor and such it is. I do not say that it is a large field, or a field that gives range and scope for vast energies or vast abilities. I do not say it is a field that would satisfy a high ambition, but it is a pleas- ant field of labor say, rather a garden than a field, but a garden of the Lord, in which one may stroll among the lilies and gather myrrh and spice, mindful that the garden is not merely to be enjoyed, but, like Eden, is to be dressed and kept." (Farewell discourse of Rev. W. E. Ijams, preached June 26, 1870.) 38 IN GERMANTOWN It was not an easy task that the h'ttle company took on themselves. The war came on and during the 6o's the little church had a severe struggle. The erection of the main church building two years after the chapel was built made the burden almost too much for the small body. There were but 52 members in 1862, five years after the organization. It was during this desperate period that the Session for- bade for a short time the taking of any church oflferings for any cause outside the local church ! But though they staggered under the load, they persisted with brave hearts and steadfast souls, despising not the day of small numbers and heavy burdens, confident of ultimate success. The church has been blessed from the first by a noble succession of zealous, broadminded, capable officers, in- cluding pastors, elders, deacons and trustees. The rolls of these officials may well be pointed to with pride by us all. The early pastorates were short. Dr. Hinsdale, who laid the substantial foundations of the structure, was here four years. His successor, Mr. Taylor, died after but two years of service. Mr. DeVeuve remained only two years, and Mr. Ijams followed the example of his predecessors and cut short his ministry after two years. Under Mr. Ijams the church had a large growth, the congregation crowding the building. After Mr. Ijams, came Mr. McCullagh, fresh from the seminary, the only pastor to receive ordination in this church. He was with the church seven years, and seven good years they were, of steady en- largement. Under Dr. Teal, who ministered from 1878 to 1886, the congregation prospered and became thoroughly organized 39 THE SECOND PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH for aggressive work, though in 1882, at the twenty-fifth anniversary of the church's founding, the fifth year of Dr. Teal, the membership was but 184. Dr. Nason, the church's seventh pastor, served in the Gospel for fourteen years, exhibiting rare qualities as a Christian minister and gentleman, and gave over to his suc- cessor a strong and vigorous body, in spite of the fact that in the middle of his pastorate the church gave much of her best strength to the organization of Summit Church. It is a pleasure this morning to acknowledge the unspeak- able obligation we feel ourselves under to these men, into whose faithful labors we have entered. They scattered with fidelity the seed of the Word, which yielded large fruitage, because into the soil they cast their hearts and with whole- hearted love labored for Christ and His church. But the harvest song of the fifty years would be incom- plete without large acknowledgment to the men who have formed the body-guard of the pastors — the elders, trustees and deacons, without whose wise, courageous, generous and manly support, the church would never have been lifted into its present place of power. But we must leave them unnamed here, unworthy though this tribute be. The church, under these successive leaders, has grown gradually but surely in strength and influence. During the fifty years 1358 have been received into the church, the present membership being 584. This has all been accomplished without the excitement of revivals or Pente- costal accessions. Like the oak of the forest which is satis- fied with slow growth, knowing that rapid enlargement generally means a feeble plant, so our church has been content to gather to herself new strength with the enlarging 40 IN GERMANTOWN community, and in the fulness of power she now hfts her head with grace and beauty, to give life to all. As the little chapel was expanded into the larger church build- ing and later was buttressed by the main Sabbath- school room, and enlargement followed enlargement, with little appreciable tearing down of old walls, keeping the old in the getting of the new, so the congregation has gathered new members as a rule, to keep them, and to use them in ever-increasing numbers along side the old workers in the service of the Master. And now I must pass over whole chapters in our history with only a word, chapters full of interest and inspiration. There is first of all the Sabbath-school, whose Hfe antedates the church's nearly a month, the nursing mother of the church's children, which has had two less superintendents than the church has had pastors. Then the Work of the Women, who have labored in various organizations so earnestly, lovingly and unostentatiously during the past fifty years. And the Young People's Organizations which have given opportunity to hundreds during the past twenty-five years for training and service. And there are our Children. Ah, what's a home without children? And what's a church that consumes all her energy in caring for herself? We rejoice greatly today in the children of our church. There is our daughter on the hill — Summit Church — which had its beginning in the prayer meetings and Sabbath- school maintained by our members, and whose present strength is a tribute to this church's faithful mothering. And Eastminster! Our healthy daughter, scarce two years 41 THE SECOND PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH old; you all know of her and, like all babies of two years, you find her exceedingly interesting. But perhaps you do not know that Somerville Mission received its start here at the hand of one of our revered elders, Mr. George F. Wiggan, who organized the mission and superintended the Sabbath-school until his death in 1 891; and that we gave to Wakefield Church one of her organizers, who is to this day a tower of strength in her, Mr. Francis B. Reeves. Reference must also be made to the Wissahickon Mission and Quarry Mission, the former founded and conducted for years by Mr. George Heberton, both being furnished with workers from our then feeble forces, neither of which, however, developed into a perma- nent work. But time would fail us to tell of all the works and labors of love which have had their inspiration under the blessing of God in this church, of the innumerable institutions which have been aided in their good work and of the many missionary enterprises which have been given new impetus at the hand of our people. Let me conclude with a brief reference to what I esteem some of the main characteristics of the fifty years: I. Unity and Harmony of Life. As Dr. Nason truly said of his pastorate in his fifth anniversary sermon, so might it be said of all the years : ** Pre-eminently I may speak of this fact, that we have been a united and harmonious people. The years have passed without the shadow of dissension. We have been more like a family than a large organization. Love has been without dissimulation. We have been of one mind, and the God of Peace has been with us. 'Behold how IN GERMANTOWN good and how pleasant it is for brethren to dwell together in unity.' " 2. Liberality in Giving. From the first this also has been a marked feature of our church. A less hberal folk would have put ofif to a more convenient season, than the embarrassing months of 1857-58, the erection of a house of worship. But not so our founders. With rare energy and zeal they set to work and out of their limited resources, raised sufficient within nine months to purchase a church lot, erect the chapel and furnish it, at a total cost of $6,500, and dedicate it free of debt. And this spirit of liberality has never since been absent. To illustrate how consistently this has been maintained along with the enlarging membership, let me give you the records for the first five years of each of the last three pastorates. Dr. Teal, at his fifth anniversary in 1882, noted the fact that the total contributions for the five years had been $45,230, a yearly average of $9,046, the church membership being less than 200- Dr. Nason at his fifth anniversary gave the total contri- butions for the five years, $89,019, a yearly average of $17,804, with the membership less than 400. During the five years of the present pastorate the total contributions have been $123,490, a yearly average of $24,698, with the membership less than 600. What church can show a more consistent record for liberality in giving? 3. The Missionary Spirit. This has already been shown in the work done in Germantown for the enlargement of the kingdom. But this does not begin to tell the story. 43 THE SECOND PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH Our field is the world, and the world field has been gripping the hearts of this people more and more, until we are now giving more for work outside our parish than for the work within, maintaining our special representatives on the home and foreign fields and generously supporting them in their work, besides helping scores of other servants of the Lord in the Master's service. The giving of a whole evening of our anniversary week to Missions is not too strong a represen- tation of the place of Missions in our hearts and service. Is it any wonder we love the old church about which cluster so many glorious traditions, home of so many noble souls and center of such consecrated activity in the enlarge- ment of the Kingdom? The joy in our hearts is echoed in heaven today. The Master rejoices, the angels rejoice, the elders and saints around the throne rejoice; all are glad with us for these fifty fruitful years, and their joy, as ours, is enlarged because this day finds us, as a church, with undimmed vision and unabated force, full of vigor and promise for the future, ready to go forward in response to the new orders of our Commander and take as our motto the watchword of Xavier, " For the greater glory of God !" REv.CHARtesRH.NASOND.D. 1887- 1901 ■^ \ Re\/ John W.Teal D.D. \ iy }-j\ 1678 - 1666 W f^j Former Pastors IN GERMANTOWN Historical Sketch On November 21, 1857, a company of fifteen assembled at the house of Mr. Joseph G. Mitchell, corner of Walnut Lane and Greene Streets, to consider the formation of a new Presbyterian church in Germantown. The meeting resolved "That on the first Sabbath in December v^e pro- ceed to hold religious services, to be conducted by such ministers from the city and elsew^here as can be obtained, provided suitable arrangements can be made; and to organ- ize a Sunday-school." Agreeable to this action the first preaching service was held in the Mennonite Church, on Germantown Avenue, December 5, 1857, ^^ which day also the Sabbath-school was organized. The Second Presbytery of Philadelphia, on December I7» 1857, appointed a committee to meet on December 31st, and organize the Second Presbyterian Church in Germantown, at the request of thirty persons, residents of Germantown, and "either members of the Presbyterian Church or attached to its doctrines and order." On December 23, 1857, the first congregational meeting was held, when the charter was adopted, trustees, elder and deacons elected and the purchase of the present site of the church authorized. The church was organized by a Committee of Presbytery on Thursday evening, December 13, 1857, with twelve charter members, as follows: Frederick A. van Dyke, Jr., Mrs. Anna M. van Dyke, George Heberton, Mrs. Anna S. Heberton, Joseph G. Mitchell, Mrs. Frances A. Collins Mitchell, Mrs. Mary Burkhart Hagar, Joseph B. Barry, Mrs. Elizabeth R. Barry, Thomas Broom Smith, Mrs. Endora H. Smith, Mrs. Elizabeth S. Sniith. At this 45 THE SECOND PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH meeting Mr. Thomas Broom Smith was installed Ruhng Elder, and Mr. Joseph B. Barry and Mr. George Heberton ordained and installed Deacons. On March 8, 1858, a congregational meeting was held, and Rev. Horace G. Hinsdale elected Pastor. The call was accepted by Mr. Hinsdale in a letter dated March 27, 1858. Early in April of the same year the lot at the corner of Tulpohocken and Greene was secured and steps taken towards erecting a chapel. This chapel was opened for service and dedicated September 12, 1858. Up to this time all the services and congregational meetings had been held in the Mennonite Church. In the Spring of i860 work was commenced on the church building, and on Sab- bath, June 30, 1 86 1, it was dedicated to God's worship with appropriate services, the corner stone having been laid May 7, i860. This building has since been enlarged and improved, but the little chapel, now occupied by the Primary Department of the Sabbath-school, has been kept in its original form. In 1882 the large chapel, or main Sabbath-school build- ing, was built at a cost of $10,000. In 1887 the manse was erected- on the church lot on Greene Street, at a cost of $10,000. In 1890-91 the main church edifice was ex- tended, and in 1894 the organ was enlarged and placed back of the new pulpit platform and screen, at a cost of $15,000. During the Summer and Fall of 1902, $17,000 was expended in church improvements, the main features of which were the building of the Morgan Memorial Tower and putting in new windows, including the EUiot and Kimball Memorial Windows. In the early '8o's a Mission was started by the church 46 IN GERMANTOWN called the Carpenter Street Mission, out of which has grown the Summit Presbyterian Church, organized into a separate church in 1894. The Second Church has con- tributed liberally to this work in money, workers, and members, and rejoices greatly in its present prosperity. In October, 1905, another mission, called Eastminster Chapel, was organized by the Session on the east side of Germantown. The rapid and substantial growth of this work has been most gratifying. The history of the congregation has been marked for the harmony which has always pervaded its activities and for the growing liberality of its members toward all worthy causes. The missionary spirit has grown stronger and stronger, until now the church supports a missionary and his wife in China, and a missionary and his wife on the home field, in addition to all its other benevolent work. The total benevolences for the past year were $13,433.85, the largest in the history of the congregation. From the beginning the church has had a steady growth in membership and influence, under the faithful leadership of its successive Pastors, of whom there have been eight. A roll of these, together with rolls of the Ruling Elders, Deacons and Trustees of the Church from its organization to the present time, will be found on the following pages. A table is also given showing the growth in membership and contributions through the fifty years of the church's life. 47 THE SECOND PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH ROLL OF PASTORS I. Rev. Horace G.
