Pamphlets by Dominie Marinus 141 Index 143 FOREWORDS From the lips of the "oldest inhabitant" the writer was wont many years ago to hear much about the Old Dutch Church at Totowa, till in fan- cy he could picture to himself the quaint square stone building with pyr- amidal shingle roof, and odd belfry ; the box-pews, with doors carefully closed ; the queer pulpit perched up at one end, overshadowed by the huge sounding-board ; the sturdy Dutch folk who with reverential air lis- tened to the Word as expounded by Dominie Marinus, Dominie Meyer, Dominie Schoonmaker or Dominie Eltinge, and at intermission strolled about the solemn '"God's Acre" where reposed their dead who waited the resurrection into Life. The "oldest inhabitant" is forever passing away. Cornelius Van Winkle, Cornelius H. Post, Ralph Doremus, Mrs. Catharine Doremus, Abraham H. Godwin, Avery Richards, John R. Van Houten, David Bensen, Richard Van Houten and others from whom the writer in former days gleaned their recollections of the Old Church and its founders, have all gone. Soon there will be none left who have worshipped within those walls. To preserve the accounts obtained directly from those personally famil- iar with the Old Church has been the aim of the writer, that there should be a permanent memorial of an edifice wherein so much for good was wrought during three quarters of a century. Oral tradition has been sup- plemented by original documents, hitherto unpublished. There has been added the Record of Baptisms, in the original Dutch, the only early record of the church known to exist. The frontispiece is drawn from the description on pages 28-31 and the sketch by Uzal W. Freeman, mentioned on page 33, and which was printed in 1811 (not 1825, as stated in the text). Much of this History was published by the author in a local newspaper about 1871. It has been re-written and revised, and a large amount of new material since discovered has been incorporated. In its present shape it is hoped that the work may be of some value as a contribution to local history, and serve to perpetuate the memory of that ancient landmark — the Old Dutch Church at Totowa. Christmas-Tide, 1892. The Old Dut'ch Church at Totowa. I. Intkoductory. For more than three-quarters of a century the church-going people of the country now inckided within the limits of the city of Paterson attended divine worship at what is known in our local history as "The Old Dutch Church at Totowa." More than sixty years have passed since the quaint and venerable structure was swept out of existence. In a few more years none will be left who can say they have stood within its walls. Al- ready it is difficult to glean any facts concerning its history from living witnesses. Most of the particulars hereinafter given were obtained years ago from persons who have long since gone to join the "innumerable company" who once worshiped at this old church. To put in permanent and available form some account of the history of this ancient edifice the following pages have been written, as a contribution to the local history of the neighborhood. While most of our older citizens have heard of the old Totowa church, vague accounts of which are handed down by tradition, accurate, definite information concerning it is not readily obtained. The only church records bearing on its his- tory known to exist are, ist: the Acquackanonk Church Rec- ords — one ponderous folio containing entries from 1724 to 1773, and two smaller manuscript volumes, down to and after 1S16; 3d, the Totowa Church Records — one volume containing the Treasurer's accounts from 1795 to 181 6, and minutes of Con- sistory thereafter until 1S33 ' '^i^other volume containing min- lO THE OLD DUTCH CHURCH AT TOTOWA. utes of the Great Consistory and meetings of the congregation, in iSi6, and 1837 to 1857 ' '^"^^ ^ third volume containing a bap- tismal register, 1756-1809, to which is prefixed a copy of the call to the first pastor of the church. The Acquackanonk Rec- ords contain a few direct references to the Totowa church, as hereinafter noted; again in 1810, in reference to a dispute be- tween a member of the church and the pastor, and in 1S16 when the connection between the two churches was finally dissolved. The Totowa Records are not connected at all, and give no in- sight into the workings of the church until 1825 and thereafter. Hence, we must look elsewhere for much of the information as to the history of the church for the first three-quarters of a cen- tury of its existence. The more important authorities will be mentioned as quoted. The Acquackanonk Church chose its first officers in 1694, and was located about where the First Reformed church of Pas- saic now stands — partly, doubtless, because there was soaiething of a settlement there, and because it was most convenient to the greater part of the congregation. During the next thirty years the population north of Acquackanonk increased to such an ex- tent that a church was organized at the Ponds (1724),* and To- towa, Paterson, Preakness and Pompton Plains were represent- ed in the Acquackanonk Consistory by the Van Gysens, Peters- es, Vreelands, Van Winkels, Vander Beeks, etc. In May, 1710, Peter Helmerichse van Houtewas elected Deacon, and he was doubtless the first chosen from Totowa. In 1716, Joris (George) Reyersen was elected a Deacon — probably from Pac- quanac ; in 171S — Simon van Nes, from Singack, or perhaps from Pompton Plains; in 17^9 — David Hennion, from Upper Preakness; in 1720 — Roelof Helmerichse van Houte, doubt- less from Totowa ; in 1730 — Cornells Doremes, who settled at Preakness in 1723 ; in 1732 — Paulus van der Beek, of Pomp- ton Plains ; in 1734 — Dirk van Houte, of Totowa; in 1737 — Roelof Van Houten, Elder; in 173S — Thomas Doremes, Dea- con; in 1739 — J(acob) V. Plouten, Elder; in 1742 — Helmech R(oelofse) V. Houten, Deacon; in 1743 — Cornells Hel(mer- ichse) V. Houten, Elder; Hel. Piet. V, Houten, Deacon; in ». »Now Oakland, Bergeu County. ORGANIZATION OF THE CHURCH. II 1744 — Robbt. V. Houten, Deacon ; in 1745 — Job's Reyerszen and Jobn Vincent, Deacons; in 1751 — Rinier van Houte, Church Master; in 1753 — Dirrick van Houte, Elder, Gerre- brand van Houte, Deacon; in 1755 — Johannis Vanhoute, Dea- con. These are the names only of the church officers chosen from north of the Passaic river; the van VVinkels, Vreelands, Posts and Gerritscs chosen from the Boght, Wesel, Slooterdam and vicinity were even more numerous. This indicates the growing importance of the church membership north of Ac- quackanonk, and the increasing need of regular preaching at some place between Acquackanonk and the Ponds. II. First Preaching at Totowa. It was tlie custom of the old Dutch ministers to preach oc- casionally through the week at hamlets remote from the church- es, and it is not unlikely that Dominie Jonannes Van Driessen, pastor at Acquackanonk and Pompton, 1735-4S, may have held forth sometimes at or near Totowa, though he says nothing of it in his voluminous ^^ersonal memoranda in the Acquackanonk Records. III. Organization of the Totowa Church. The organization of the Totowa church is undoubtedly due, under God, to the zealous efforts of a pious young man, David Marinus, who, while yet a Theological student (" S. S. Theol. Studiosus") was called (Nov. 12, 1750) to take charge of the churches at Acquackanonk and Pompton. He seems to have been a man of some means, and instead of occupying the parsonage at Acquackanonk during his whole ministry, he bought (July 20, 1754) of Henry Brockholst a tract of one hun- dred acres lying on Totowa, between the Falls and Hamburgh avenue, or more definitely between the present streets known as Marion street and Red Woods avenue, and extending from the river about 5,700 or 5,800 feet north to between Chamberlin and Chatham avenues, including the present city poor farm. The price was £200 "current lawful money of New York," about $500 of our money to-day.* Tradition says he built a •Bergeu County Deeds, Liber E, p. 189; Book A of Bergeu County Transcribea Deeds in Passaic County Clerk's office, p. 874. 13 THE OLD DUTCH CHURCH AT TOTOWA. house and lived on this tract, on the north side of Totowa ave- nue, near the present Jasper street, about where stands an old stone house formerly occupied by the late Robert Field. Dec. 3, 1760, he sold this place to Gerrit Van Houte, of Slooterdam, for £400 " current money New York" (about $1,000).* The transaction was really an exchange, it is said, the Dominie re- moving to and occupying Van Houte^s farm at Slooterdam (where the Van Bussums now are), and Van Houte removing to Totowa and occupying the Dominie's house. This dwelling was replaced by a subsequent purchaser, Albert Van Saun, by the stone house now standing, near Jasper street, as above men- tioned. , To Dominie Marinus's residence on Totowa is doubtless due, the oraranization of the new church, which was effected in about a year after his settlement there. The location of it was also his work, in all probability, as it was almost within a stone's throw of his dwelling. In the first volume of the Acquackanonk Church Records are several minutes, setting forth the steps taken to organize the new church. Following is a translation: The 12 November 1755 at 3 o'clock ia the afternoon the Venerable Gonsiet- oiy of Achqnechenouk met. The meeting was opened with prayer by the President and a letter was delivered which was opened and read contain- ing a request from a part of our Congregation at Totna, wherein they pe- tition the Venerable Consistory to know (1) how much service they shall be allowed in the new chiu-ch [Kerk]] at Totua (2) whether the Churches [Kerken] namely that at Achquechenonk & that at Totua shall be gov- erned by one or by two Consistories (3) and whether every portion of the Congi-egation shall contribute money for the services or the Salary shall be paid by each [church] equally. Whereupon Do. Marinus remarked in the first i^lace that he intended to stand by his Call until the matter should bo settled between the Congrega- tion and a conclusion was reached by the majority of the Consistory 'Bei-gen County Deeds, Liber E, p. 193 ; Book A of Bergen County Transcribed Deeds iu Passaic County Clerk's office, p. 277. tin Dutch, Gemeente or KerU Is used Indiflferently to denote a cliurcli or congrega- tion, while the church edifice is always denoted by Kerlc or //wis— or Buys In the older writings.

ORGANIZATION OF THE CHURCH. 13 1 That to tlie Northern part of oiir Congi-egation at Totua (in case the con- gregation shall approve) the fom-th part of the services shall be allowed 2 That the two churches {Kerke7i] namely that at Achquechenonli and that at Totua shall be governed by one CousLstory 3 That the Salary shall be equally paid with these conditions in case the majority of the Congregation shall approve and on this account it has been provisionally resolved that the Congregation of Achquechenonk shall be called together by themselves the next Thursday eight days at the old ^hurch [by de Oude Kej'k] at ten o'clock in the morning and then the meet- ing was closed with a Danksegge. David Marinxjs, Praes : The 20 November 1755 the above articles were ■u'ell approved by the major- ity of the congregation and upon the question when the Church {Kerk] at Totua shall be organized, it was resolved that the Consistory shall first inquire how much Salary the Congregation is willing to raise by voluntary subscrip- tions, in order to see whether the Congregation can make up such a sum of Money as Do Marinus judges to be reasonable, proper and necessary to have, in case the very successful Do Marimis is willing to perform the said ser- vice in the new Church \_Kerk'\. The Great Consistorj' and Congregation of Achquechenonk assembled to- gether the 24 February, 1756 in the Chiu-ch [KerF] at Achquechenonk. The meeting was opened with prayer to God, by the President. First there was read a letter from the Northern pari; of our CongTegation at totua containing a desire that they might have a separate government in their Church [Kerk'] and paj' their own Salary. Next there was read by the President a reply from our Consistory at Achquechenonk, wherein they gi-ant the petition of Totua on condition that our Congregation shall approve Which having been read to the Congregation they after deliberation unan- imously approved 1 That those who hencef oi-th incline to belong to the Church [Kerk'] at Totua shall hereafter be considered as becoming a chiu'ch on their own account and have a Separate Government & as a congregation combined with Achqiieche- nonk shall have a fourth part of the service and shall pay a fourth part of the Salary 2 Permission is given to Do David Marinus to constitute a consistoiy and to perform a fourth part of his preaching service at that place immediately 3 The Congregation of Achquechenonk is empowered fill up their Consisto- 14 THE OLD DUTCH CHURCH AT TOTOWA. ry,* depleted by those taken out and it is the order of the Congregation that a New call be made on Do David Marinus in combination with the Venerable C!ousistories of Totua & Pomptan 4 The sense of the Congregation was proposed by the Undersigned and the above approved by the Congregation. IV. Totowa's First Call to a Pastor. The following quaint and interesting document, translated from the Dutch, as originally entered by Dominie Marinus, in the Acquackanonk Church Records, is Totowa's first call to,a pastor : The New Call [Beroefsbrief, letter of call] of Do David Marinus as Preacher at Achquechnonk Totua & Pomptan. In the name of Qod ! Inasmuch as the Dutch Reformed church in the till now united Places Achquecheuonck & Pomptan in East Nev/ Jersey in North America have had' the Eev.

R. Ei-ickson [pastor at Hackensack] as our consulent [Moderator] and after the invocation of God's Holy name we have finally come to these conclusions : 1. That your Reverence shall perform the half of the Preaching service at Achquechnonk the fourth at Totua and the fourth at Pomptan. 2. The Holy days mentioned in your Rev.

As will be seen hereafter, their names appear, as Elders, signed to the call to Dom. Marinus. April 23, 1756 ; May 27 following, Gorrit Van wageninge and Jan Van Blerkoni were elected Elders of the Ac- quackanonk Church, to serve as Elder and Deacon respectively, for the unexpired terms of Post and Vauhoute, withdrawn to form the new church.

But should it happen that one or other of the aforementioned United Congregations should refuse or neglect to fulfill their equal part according to their proportion of the service enjoyed by them, whether in respect to the aforementioued Salary or in respect to the aforesaid Repairs, then the other Church or Churches shall have the perfect right (volkome reght hebben) to take the service to themselves of the delinquent congregation provided that they shall then be obligated to fulfill the above mentioned conditions.

What was he } Whence came he } How came he to Acquackanonk and Totowa } What was his character .'' These are questions not easily answered at this bOMlNlE DAvID MARINUS. I^ late day. Convin's "Manual of the Reformed Church in America" (edition of 1S69) sums up his career thus: Marimia, David, studied in Pennsylvania, lie. by Coetus, 1752; Acquack- anonk and Pompton Plains, 1752-6, Acquackauonck, Totowa and Pompton Plains, 1756-73, Kakiat 1773-78, suspended; 1780, deposed. Also supplied Fairfield, 1756-73. Marinus was evidently a native of Holland,- who having stud- ied for the ministry in Pennsylvania first connected himself with the German Reformed Synod in that State, and afterwards with the Coetus of the Reformed Dutch church, meeting at New York. This appears from the following extracts from the "Life of Rev. Michael Schlatter, 1716 to 1790," by Rev, H. Harbaugh, A. M., Philadelphia, 1S57. Mr. Schlatter labored among the Germans of Pennsylvania and New Jersey. From his Journal these extracts are culled : On tlie 28th [October, 1748], two Low Dutch students, who studied in this country, named David Marinus and Jonathan DuBois, inquired of me whether I would assist them in_ getting permission from the Eeverend Christian Synod to present themselves for examination to our Synod. This they desired, that if they should receive a regular call in the church they might then, here in this countrj', be placed in a position to accept of it. I promised to fulfil their wishes. * On the 20th of October [1749], Eev. Eeiger opened our Synod, again as- sembled [at Mr. Schlatter's house, Philadelphia]. * * « This Synod consisted of five ministers, beside s the two Low Dutch students before referred to and sixteen elders, f Mr. Schlatter having gone to Holland in 1751 and reported the condition of the Reformed church in America to the Synod of North Holland, that body referred the matter to a Commit- tee, in August, 1 75 1, who reported amgng other things, that "the two Low Dutch students, David Marinus, and Jonathan Du Bois," "ought to be confirmed in the ministry, after prev- ious examination."! This recommendation was subsequently acted upon, as may be seen by the published "Min- utes of the General Synod," N. Y., 1S59. ^""^ the yournal of the Cceius, held at New York, Sept. 19, 1752, we find, p. Lxxii, this entry : •Life of Schlatter, p. 1S6. tibia., p. 102. tlbld, p. 229. iS THE OLD DUTCH CHURCH AT tOTOWA. The President read to the Assembly a letter from Philadelphia, laid iipori the table bj^ Dom. Ritzema (of New York), which had been written by Dom. Schlatter in the name of the Pennsylvania Coetus, containing a statement by the Synod of South and North Holland, respecting the two students, Mariniia and Du Bois, with an inquiry from the Coetus of Pennsylvania as to the way in which they should act, since Marinus belonged under our Coetus. After deliberation, the question was found to be, whether Mr. Marinus should be examined by our Coetus, or hj that of Pennsylvania. This question was taken ad referendum. The same afternoon Garret Van Wagenen, Elder from Ac- quackanonk, appeared in the Coetns, doubtless to sustain and encourage his young pastor. For it must be recollected (as shov/n by the date appended to his first call) that Marinus had been called Nov. I3, 175O1 while still a student of The- ology, to take charge of the churches at Acquackanonk and Pompton. Corwin, Dewitt and other writers make the date 1752. But the date appended to the call of Acquackanonk and Pompton is Nov. 12, 1750, beyond all question, and the writing^ is Dom. Marinus's own ; yet he begins his Baptismal Register Nov. 12, 1753. On the other hand, again, the baptism of a child of his, named David, is recorded (in a crude chirography, that of the Voorleser, doubtless, by whom the records were kept, 1748-52) in the Acquackanonk Records, Nov. 16, 1751 ; and, too, Marinus himself records eight marriages performed by him during 1751 and 1752 (beginning Oct. 11, 1751), prior to Nov. 12 of the latter year. The date, 1752, is doubtless gen- erally given as the year of his settlement, because that was the date of his ordination, and perhaps for the same reason the three churches, in making out their "new call," in 1756, speak of the "four years' service of "the Rev." David Marinus, he having been entitled to that prefix only that length of time. Wednesday morning, Sept. 20, 1752, the Coetus Journal states : David Marinus laid upon the table two letters from Dom. Schlatter, toiich- ing his examination, which being closelj^ examined by the Coetus, confirmed them in their view that the aforesaid student, being lender the Coetus of New York, shoitld be examined by them ; and they so decided. "Whereon, D. Ma- rinus requested the examination, and presented his documents and testimoni- als, which being investigated, were all foimd to be to his praise, and his re- quest was granted. The President and Clerk being occupied with weighty Dominie david marintjs. 19 mattei-s, Doms. Ritzeina and Frelinghuysen were appointed to conduct the ex- ercise, and they appointed the candidate a text and a portion in the langua- ges.* The next morning — The Examinatorcs, proceeding to the examination of the candidate, David Mar inns, called to Acqnackauouk, first reqiiired him to ascend the pulpit and preach from 1 Cor. xii, 3. He was then examined in Hebrew and Greek and in Divinity, in which he gave so much satisfaction that the Assembly found no difficiilty in admitting him to the office of the ministry, and whatever be- longs thereto. Thereupon he signed the Formulas of Unity, and Dom. Goet- schius [of Hackensack and Schraaleuburgh] was appointed to ordain him in his holy office, with Dom. Curtenius [of Hackensack] in the laying on of hands. The Coetus of New York now write to the Coetus of Phihi- delphia : We must highly approve your zeal for the maintenance of peace and love, shown in the letter of Dom. Schlatter, containing an extract from the reso- lution of the Sjmod of North and South Holland, concerning the examina- tion of Mr. David Marimis, together with a proposal to us whether we would find it agreeable to carry out the Synodical resolution. Our brotherly reply is, that after mature deliberation and a careful inspec- tion of your letter and that of Dom. Schlatter to Marmus, that since this gen- tleman, with his congregation, belongs under the Coetus of New York, he ought to be examined by the same. Having thus concluded, we, at the re- quest of Marinus, examined him by two Examinatores, in the truths of the- ology, the languages, etc., and were so satisfied as to admit him to the office of the ministry', and he wiU be ordained at an early day. Thus you will be saved the trouble, f The Coetus, it should be understood, was a body of churches in America formed in i747 ^o"" ii^^tual advice and aid, which finally, in 1754, organized into a Classis and began regularly to oi'dain persons for the ministry — a power previously reserved exclusively to the church in Holland, and the exercise of which in America was opposed by a large portion of the church here, and hence the formation of the Conferentie to adhere to the old way. The Coetus was the means of establishing the independ- ence of the American Reformed Dutch church, and founded Queen's, now Rutgers, College for the education of the ministry *Journal of Coetus, p.

Dominie Marinus was the first person ordained to the ministry by the Coetus, and the act excited great hostility on the part of the Conferentie. Marinus married Anna Du Bois, not unlikely a sister of his fellow student, Jonathan Du Bois. They had a son, David, baptized November i6, 1751? in the Acquackanonk church, as stated above. The sponsors of the infant David were Casparus Zabriskie and Katryntje Van Wagene (his wife).* Dec. 4, 1753, Johannis Marinus is born, Johannis Wanshair and Chris- tina Wanshair standing sponsors at the baptism. May 3, 1756, Ezekiel Marinus ; Waling Van Winkel and Jannitje Van Houte, sponsors. Oct. 7, 175S, Margarita Marinus; Gerrit Van Wag- ening and Sarah Van Winkel, sponsors. Dec. 10, 1761, Ger- ret Wynkoop Marinus ; Petrus Foulusse and Annatje Kip, sponsors. Some of Marinus's descendants still live near the Big Rock, Bergen county ; Garret Marinus, who lived for many years in Hamburgh avenue, near Union avenue, was a great- grandson of the old Dominie. Dom. Marinus seems to have been a ma^i of uncommon abil- ity. His examination was a splendid success. But there is I'eason to fear that he was like too many other brilliant young men — he lacked stability of character and that steadfastness of pur- pose so necessary to his or any other calling, and to retain the affections and esteem of the old Dutch people, ^vho prized those qualities most highly. All his successes appear to have been accomplished during the first five or six years of his ministry. In i753~'55 nineteen persons were received into the Acquacka- nonk church on profession of their faith, his wife being one of them. Then the record ceases. In 1755 and 1756, under his ministry, fourteen or fifteen were added each year to the Pomp- ton church. In 1753 he published "A Letter to the Inde- pendent Reflector," a small quarto pamphlet of thirty-one pages, reviewing the religious tendencies of certain articles in that pa- per, which was then edited by the young William Livingston, afterwards New Jersey's "War Governor" during the Revolu- *The entry iu the Cliurcli Record is in this fomi : [Parents] I [Sponsors] David j Annatle kaspares I Katrynte Marinus { de booys | Zabrieskl | Van Wagene [Child] David [Born] [Baptized] 16 Novem. DOMINIE DAVID MARINUS. tion. In 1755 the Dominie published another small pamphlet, "A Remark on the Disputes and Contentions in this Province," under the name "Da^'id Marin Ben Jesse, Pastor at Aque- nonka." From this Hebrew 7toin de phaiie it may be inferred that he was the son of Jesse Marin or Marion. Both pamph- lets are to be found in the New Jersey Historical Society Library, and both display no little ability on the part ot tlie writer.* But as we have said he seems to have lacked stability of character. After 1761, he resigns to another (from the feminine chirography perhaps his wife) the keeping of the baptismal register, and after 1767 he ceases to keep a marriage record. Unfortunately for him, he lived in troublous times — the conflict between the Coetus and the Conferentie waged fiercely, and his Pompton congregation being divided, the Conferentie wing got possession of the church and shut hini out, so that his friends had to build a new church for him, which they did about 1760, on the Plains. In those days, too, "total abstinence" was unknown, and though it was considered unseemly for a clergyman to get tipsy, it was quite "the thing" for him to stop 'in the tavern and take a glass of grog ; and even the good old Dominie Schoonmaker, more than half a century later, was always in the habit of taking a glass of hot toddy on v/inter mornings before going into church to preach. - Marinus appears for many years to have regularly attended the General SN'nod, or Coetus, as in i753i ^754 (when he was appointed on an important committee with Doms. Erichzon and Curtenius), 1760 (when he was Clerk pro tern, of the Coe- tus), 17^4? T771 ('it the general convention of ministers and el- ders, which preceded the organization of the General Synod) , and 1772- The next reference to him in the Minutes of Synod occurs^ at the session of October, 1779, when the Particular Synod of Hackensack present a long report to the effect that "Dom. Marinus, then pastor at Kekkieth (Kakiat, now West New Hempstead, N. Y.), had again, at various occasions, indulged in his former sin of drunkenness, and other gross im- proprieties inconsistent with the holy office of a minister of the "A further accouut of these pami^Ulets will be found in the Appenaix. 22 THE OLD DUTCH CHURCH AT TOTOWA. Gospel ;" that the consistory had arrested him from the dis- charge of the ministry, but he bound himself by a written agree- ment to amend and was allowed to preach again, but fell once more, and was then peremptorily enjoined from preaching. ''On this occasion it was also stated that from all places where Dom. Marinus is conversant, exceedingly evil 'reports go forth of his disgraceful and scandalous conduct, and that he is also guiny of intruding into various congregations, and preaching the Word of God in taverns and private houses." Sept. 15th, 177S, the Particular Synod called up the erring pastor, when he confessed the truth of the charges, but, also "brought various testimonies before the Rev. Body, in which it was declared, that for some months he had conducted himself soberly and correctly." How- ever the Synod suspended him. April 27th, i779' ^^ ^^^ ^^~ ported that he had represented that the Synod had cleared him, and he was still preaching at Newfoundland and elsewhere, and had resumed his dissipated habits. The General Synod, therefore, October, 1779, on the strength of these reports sus- pended Marinus, and at the session a year later, it appearing that he persisted in his evil courses, formally deposed him from the ministry.* Truly a dark close to a life begun so brilliantly thirty vears before. It is said that in these latter days the fallen man, conscious of error, would frequently exclaim at the close of an impassioned outburst of his old eloquence, Doet gij ah Ik zegge^ nict als Ik doe — "Do as I tell you, and not as I do;" Dom. Marinus left the Acquackanonk, Totowa and Pompton churches and went to Kakiat in 1773. The cause of his remov- al hence is not known. VI. The First Consistory. The list of the first Elders and Deacons of the old Totowa church has been given above, but these men merit something more than a passing notice. Simeon Van Winckel, Elder, was a son of Simon Jacobse (Van Winkel) , one of the original Acquackanonk Patentees. He lived in what was known as De Witte Huijs — the "White House," on the bank of the Passaic river, at the foot of Willis ♦Minutes of General Synod, Vol. I., 73-75, 76, 81, THE FIRST CONSISTORY. 23 street, where there was anciently a ford. He carried on the tanning business there. He died in i775' ^^ was an uncle of Simeon Van Winkle of the Boght and of Wagraw, who was the grandfather of the late Cornelius Van Winkle of Ellison street, Paterson. Jacob van Houte was probably of Slooterdam, son of Roelof Corn elis Van Houte and Jannetje Spier, born Oct. 26, i'J2i, and was the father of Gerrebrant Van Houten, grandfather of the late Judge Gerrebrant Van Houten of Water street, Pat- erson. Johannes Reyerse was doubtless of the Goffle, and brother of Marten Ryerson, a liberal friend of the new church. He mar- ried Marietje Wessels, and was the father of Evert and Marten, twins, born July 26, 1753, Marten Ryerson standing sponsor at the baptism. Jacobus Post built what has since been known as Zabriskie's mill, on the Bergen County side of the Passaic river, at the out- let of Saddle river. He was a man of more than ordinary ed- ucation for his day. He removed with his family to Orange county, N^Y., wdiere his descendants thrive and multiply at Postville,* near Warwick. He probably removed thither about 1770-S0. Dierck Van Giesen, Deacon, lived in an old stone house still (1S8S) standing on Totowa avenue, near Ryerson avenue. He was a leading man in the church, and several times represented it at the General Synods. Helmich Van Houten was probably a brother of Gerrebrand, grandfather of the late Judge G. Van Houten. He lived where the late Richard Benson lived on Totowa avenue, near the Lin- coln bridge. Johannis van Houte probably lived near the little schoolhouse where the road turns off from Totowa to Singack. He was a son of Roelof, one of the earliest settlers thereabout.

The next document we have, throwing light on the old church's history, is the subjoined deed, the quaintness of which merits its publication in full. The original deed is still in ex- cellent preservation, being backed with linen for greater dura- bilit3% It may be well to state that the Henr3'' Brockholst who conveys the property, was the son ot Major Anthony Brock- hoist, who did good service against the French and Indians at Canada in the seventeenth century, but failing promptly to ac- knowledge allegiance to the truculent Gov. Leisler in New York, on the accession of William and Mary to the British crown, was obliged to flee that Province in 1689, with nearly all the other best men of the city. He and Arent Schuyler bought, Nov. nth, 1695, 5500 acres of land, in New Jersey, one tract of which (2750 acres) was called the " Lower Pacquanac Pat- ent," extending from the Passaic river near the Falls to the Pompton river, and embracing a large part of Totowa. Brock- hoist lived at Pompton, about where the late Maj. Wm. W. Colfiix lived. Henry Brockholst was born December 28, 1684, so that he was well on toward fourscore at the time he gave the deed for the church-site.* Following is the deed to the Totowa church : To all Cliristiau people to whom tliese presents slaall come, Henry Biock- holst Esq. sendeth gi'eeting : know ye that I Henry Brockholst son and heir at law of Anthouj' Brockholst deceased in the county of Bergen in the prov- ince of New Jersey out of the good will I owe and the regard I have for the progi-css of the Christian Religion and especially the Manner of worship of the low duch Reformed Church of holland according as the same is Estab- lished by the National Synod held at Dordrecht in the year of our Lord one thousand six hundred and eighteen and nineteen for the promoting of Chris- tian Religion according to the principles and Church Discipline there estab- lished for the constitution of christian government we enjoy which prompting for and in consideration of four places or pats Q^lats?] in the |pue of the church now erected and built ripon the premises hereby granted and known by the distinction of No. 1 upon a certain mapp or draught made of the *For notices of Uenry Brockliolst see N.

The Trustees in 1762. A few words may be appropriate concerning the Consistory, mentioned as Trustees in the deed of 1762. Cornells Kip was doubtless the co-partner of George De Rie- mers (Doremus) in the purchase of the Preakness tract, in 1723 ; and lived at Preakness. Robert Vanhouten and his wife I'^lizabcth Post joined the Acquackanonk church in 1738; he was elected Deacon in 1744* lie lived west of Totowa, near the Singack road, and was the father of Adrian (^born 1750) and Cornelus (born 1753). Cornelis Westervelt lived near Wagraw, and was the grand- father of tlie late Cornelius I. Westervelt, for many years Pres- ident of the Paterson Gas Light Compan}'. Joliannis Van Blerkom lived at the southwest corner of Wil- lis street and Vreeland avenue, in an old stone house destroyed about 1870. lie had several children, one of whom, Henry, served creditably in an engagement ct Fort Lee, in the Revolu- tion. Johannis was the great-grandfatlier of the late ex-Mayor Brant Van lilarcom. Cornelus Gerretse was a large land-owner at the Boght and lived there about the time the deed was given, about where the old Van Winkle homestead (late Riverside Hotel) stood prior to 1873. lie sold this property to Simeon Van Winkle, who married his daughter Margaret about 17S0. This Simeon was THE CHURCH ON I'HE HILL-SlDE. 2^ the grandfather of the late Cornelius Van Winkle, who was named after old Cornelus Gerrctse or Garrison. IX. The Church on the IIill-Side. The plot of land given by Brockholst for a church site was almost triangular in shape, and was intersected by th^jt part of the old Totowa road lying between the present Hamburgh and Totowa avenues, and from [870 to 1887 called Water street, but now Ryle avenue. The northerly line would run parallel to Matlock street, and about one hundred feet south of that street. The south line of the present quarry road, running westerly from Ryle avenue, if extended northeasterly would be the line of the old plot. The easterly line ran within fifteen or twenty feet of the brook, or seventy-five to one hundred feet west of the present Hamburgh avenue. Thus the better and larger part of the tract lay north of the Totowa road, now Ryle avenue. The property included the lots designated on the city map as No.'s 45 to 56 inclusive, 57 and 59 Water street. Thus, near the foot of the hill, upon the principal road north of the Passaic, within a stone's throw of the bright and rushing brook which flowed free and unconfined on one hand, and of the rippling Passaic on tlie other, with the roar of the mighty and undespoiled cataract ever sounding near; con- venient to the only bridge which then spanned the Passaic river north of the town of Newark; and also (important con- sideration) convenient to the inn where " refresliment for man and beast" was kept by Abraham Godwin (father of the old General) in the quaint, low stone house, recently the kitchen and dining room of Mr. Cornelius Benson, in Water street, and torn down only in 1886, but at that time directly opposite the north end of the solitary bridge — here we say, under the shadow of the forest-crowned hill, snugly sheltered from boreal blasts, did these God-fearing people erect their tabernacle for the Lord's worship. And here for nearly three-quarters of a century, did they assemble once or twice a month to hear the Word expound- ed in solemn and impressive Dutch. The deed for the church-site speaks of the edifice as already built. Probably Brockholst had promised Dominie Marinus 28 THE OLD DUTCH CHURCH AT TOTOWA. (whose preaching he must have heard at Pompton) to give the land if" he should get a church built here. There is every rea- son to believe that the building had been started, at least, fully seven years before the deed was passed. The first published notice of the old church is doubtless that of the Marquis de Chastellux, a warm friend of Lafayette's, who traveled with the American army in 1780-2. In his Journal* he describes the location of the American Army on Totowa and Manchester Heights : "It wfis encamped on two heiglits, and in one line, in an extended but very good position, having a wood in tlie rear, and in the front the river, which is verj' difficult of passage everywhere escei>t at Totohaw-Bridge. * * Two miles beyond the bridge is a meeting-house of an hexagonal form, which is given to their places of worship by the Dutch Presbyterians, who are very numerous in the Jerseys, "f Thus de Chastellux. The word "hexagonal" was probably due to a slip in his memory, for in this case, at all events, it was as incorrect as the statement of the distance of the church from the bridge. The exact location of the old church was about thirty feet east of the Totowa road (now Ryle avenue), about one hun- dred feet soutii of Matlock street, or on the rear of Lot No. 45 Water street (as on the present city map) and on the upper part of Lot No. 47. X. Its External Appearance. It was about 30x40 feet in area, possibly a little larger. The stone walls were only eighteen or twenty feet high, and the shingled roof overhung them two or three feet, making tlie walls appear much lower than they really were. The roof rose from all four sides with quite a steep pitch to a common point, which was surmounted by a belfry of great simplicitv of construction — four posts like legs straddling over the pyramid- *Travels in North America, etc., Lomlon, 17S7, Vol. I., p. 109. tTtie original eilitlon reads : "A deux niillea au-dela du poat, on trouve un Meeting- Ilouse de forme exagone," etc. — Voyages she pushed the foot-stove along to the next, and so on. About iSt3 or 1814 box stoves were introduced to warm the church, but the elderly ladies always carried their own stoves with them still. It is said that there was a sketch or view of the church drawn by old Gen. Abraham Godwin, once upon a time, on the walls of the Passaic Hotel, which was so admirable and striking a likeness that his son declared it should always remain, but it was whitewashed over many years ago. There is a crude sketch of the building still in existence on a map of the adjacent Wallis property, executed by Uzal VV. Freeman, a local survey- or, about 1S25. 34 THE OLD DUTCH CHURCH AT TOTOWA. XII. Church Going in the Olden Time. It is a bright Sunday morning say a hundred years ago, and it is the '•'•turn" of the Totowa church people to have service in their Kcrk — on the Hillside. The Voorleser and sexton stands in the middle aisle of the old church, in the centre of the build- ing, vigorously pulls the rope that dangles down from the bell through the roof nearly to the floor, and the wheel in the bel- fry gives a whirl and the bell turns and clangs out its call to the people. Along the few roads leading hither great wagons are seen slowly wending their way churchward, while far more numerous are the groups of horsemen and horsewomen, who prefer that means of conveyance to jolting in heavy wag- ons devoid of springs over the rough roads. As the appointed hour draws nigh the people gather about the church, awaiting the coming of the Dominie. He arrives in good season, and after appropriately greeting his parishionerson every side, he enters the church, followed by the congregation, who with be- coming gravity take their accustomed places, paterfamilias closing the door of his pew as the last of his flock enters. On ascending to the pulpit the Dominie kneels, bows his head, holding up his hat before his face, and silently prays, the con- gregation likewise engaging in silent prayer. Then he an- nounces a hymn to be sung, or (as was the custom in those earlier days) hands the Voorleser a notice of the hymn selected. The Voorleser stands up in his place before the pulpit, and placing his book in a rack before him starts the tune and leads the singing, all the congregation joining. And with what fer- vor, and how sonorously they chorus the praises of Jehovah! There is no violin, nor bass-viol, nor organ to keep the accom- paniment, and no choir to do the singing. The congregation feel that everything depends on their voices, and most heartily do they respond. If 3'ou want to hear such singing now, at- tend one of our Holland churches some Sunday. The Domi- nie now ofters up a brief invocation to God, and then an- nounces a chapter in the Bible, which the Voorleser stands up and reads. After this the pastor gives out another hymn, which is sung as before, the Voorleser leading, and then the congregation settle themselves for a good, full hour's discourse, ORDER OF SERVICES. 35 under the sevct-.il heads of ''firstly" to "twenty-fir.stly." Of course the young people thought this terribly prosy, but the longer and more controversial the discourses were the better the old people enjoyed them, for be it remembered they hearil a sermon but ever}' third Sunday, and most of them came miles to hear that. The sermon over, the Deacons arise, grasp the long poles in their pew and sally out among the congregation to take up the usual collection — originally sacredly devdted to establishing a fund for the payment ot the pastor's salary. The poles are six or eight feet long, to reach the end of the long pews, and on the extremity of each pole is attached a small black bag with a little bell at the bottom which answers a double purpose — awaking sleepers (some of the congregation were remarkably drowsy during the ceremony), and an- nouncing by its responsive jingle, whenever any coppers were dropped in. About 1S16, the bells were taken off the collec- tion bags, which were retained in use, however, till the burn- ing of the old church. This sort of "contribution box" was common in all Dutch churches during the last century. The Dominie now offers up another short prayer and dismisses the congregation for three weeks. The service lasted from halt- past ten o'clock in the morning until one or half-past one in tile afternoon. When the Sacrament of the Loixl's Supper was administered, the table having been spread before the pul- pit, the Elders, Deacons and heads of families first went up and partook of the symbolical bread and wine together, as handed them by the pastor ; then the remainder of the congregation took their turn in sitting down at the Lord's table, till all had been served. After the ceremony, the bread and wine re- maining was passed around among the poorer people who had come long distances, by way of refreshment, before they start- ed for home. It was customary for many of the congregation to lunch out on the open green sward in front and on the south side of the church, after service. XIII. The Successors of Dom. Marivus. As already stated Dom. Marinus left this part of the country in 1773. But it seems that in 1763 the Conferentie 36 THE OLD DUTCH CHURCH AT TOTOWA. party, anxious to get clear of Marinus, who was of the Coetus party, called Dom. Cornelius Blauw to take charge of the churches at Totowa, Fairfield and Boonton (now Montville) . He remained about five years, then removed to Hackensack, and died about 1770, after a three years' pastorate. He lived at Two Bridges, and having no carriage was taken to and from church by the more fortunate people. He is said to have been from Holland, a good preacher, but quarrelsome, "invading the congregations of others, accepting calls from the disatiected, and illegally administering the ordinances to them." He fell into irregular, dissipated habits at the last. From \']6']-']2 the Totowa pulpit appears to have been va- cant, unless Dom. Marinus resumed his old pastoral relation, which is not improbable. However, in November, i77'2' Fompton and Totowa called the Rev. Hermanns Meyer, D. D., and he was installed over those churches. Dr. Meyer was born in Bremen, Lower Saxony, July 37, 1733, of good parentage, and received an excellent education. h\ 1763 he was called to Kingston, N. Y., where he served with marked ability, but desiring to remain neutral between the Coitus and the Conferentie he offended both, and a majority of the Con- sistory being of the latter party closed the church door against him, and repulsed him by an armed sentinel. He cons'equent- ly had to minister for several years in private houses, until he was called to Totowa. In 17S4 he was appointed Professor of Hebrew, and in 1786 Lector or Assistant to the Professor of Divinity; in 17S9 Queen's (now Rutgers) College conferred on him the degree of D. D. He died at his residence at Pacqua- nac or at Two Bridges, after a brief illness, Oct. 37, i79^? widely lamented. He was a profound scholar and had begun a new translation of the Old Testament, but only completed the Psalms. He was buried under the pulpit of the Pompton church, and his remains have never been disturbed.* "It is said that his last sermon was from the text, 'He that hath the Son hath life,' dwelling particularly on the last clause of the text, 'hath life.' He had contemplated administering the Lord's Supper two weeks from that day, but he was taken ill. During his sickness he sent for one of the Elders and gave him *Spraguc's Annals Reformed Dutch CliiircU, pp. S4-6, THE SUCCESSORS OF DOM. MARINUS. 3^ directions about his funeral. He only remarked, 'I meant to have administered the Lord's Supper next Sabbath, but the Lord has intended otherwise, and I shall not drink wine again until I drink it in my Father's Kingdom.' As expressive of his pious sentiments he remarked on taking a little refresh- ment, 'I have no more taste for what I once relished, but the bread of heaven is provided for me.' " {^MS. of Rev. Dr. John H. Diiryca., 1S69.) After the death of Dr. Meyer, the connection between Toto- wa and Pompton was dissolved, after thirty-five years dura- tion, and the connection with Acquackanonk was I'enewed, the two churches calling the Rev. Henricus Schoonmuker, who was to preach one-third of the time in Totowa. Mr. Schoonmaker was born in Rochester, Ulster County, N. Y., July rS, 1739, ivnd was one of the first licensed by the Coetus. Hence his ordination was opposed by the Conferentie, who managed to get possession of the church at Poughkeepsie, where the ceremony was to take place, locked and barred it. But his friends brought out a wagon under aii apple-tree before the church, and from that impromptu pulpit the Rev. John M. Goetschius preached the sermon, and the candidate knelt there and was ordained. He served very acceptably and with great success, until his church required preaching in English, which was beyond his power. Receiving a call in i773 to Acquack- anonk and Totowa he removed hither, and continued to preach in Dutch till the last. In March, 1S16, owing to the infirm- ities of advancing age, he formally relinquished his charges here, after fortv-three years of successful labor. As a mark of their appreciation the Acquackanonk Consistory voted him a life annuity of $205. In the summer of 1S16 he removed to Jamaica, L. I., where he lived peacefully and happily ^vith his son, the Rev. Jacob Schoonmaker. "Here, in the blessed hope of a glorious, immortal life, he terminated his earthly career, in the eighty-first year of his age, on the 19th of Jan- uary, 1820. His body was removed for burial among the peo- ple of his last charge, at Acquackanonk, and an impressive funeral sermon was preached by the Rev. P. D. Freligh, then the pastor of the church in that place, from Zachariah i., 5."* *Sprague'8 Annals of the Reformea Dutch Chuich, p. 39. ^8 THE OLD DUTCH CHURCH AT TOTOWA. His son Daniel afterwards lived and died at what is now No. 172 Market street, Paterson. As remarked before, the good old man could not preach English. When John King's little daughter Grace (aged five years) died (Nov. 14, 1795)5 there being no other clergyman within several miles, Dom. Schoon- maker was invited to preach the funeral sermon. But what was the astonishment of the bereaved parents when the Dom- inie preached away in Dutch, of which they could understand very little ! Small consolation could they get from his discourse, however comforting it might have been intended to be. The Totowa church, which had hitherto had preaching only every third Sunday, now resolved (Marcli I3, 1S16) to have service every other Sabbath, if possible, and so notified the Acquackanonk Consistory, but that body seem to have taken time by the forelock, and March 30th notified the Totowa church that they had secured the services of the Kev. Peter Van Pelts, of Staten Island, and asked Totowa to take a third of his services. The Totowa church resolved that Acquack- anonk had acted prematurely or ex parte ^ in not consulting To- towa, and repeated the demand for half t-lie ministerial service ; but on April 23, agreed to pay $300 a year for the pastor's sal- ary, if he would preach one-third of the time at Totowa, and also give them services on the intervening Sunday afternoons, for eight months in the year, Totowa to be also exempt from the care or cost of the parsonage. But before this aiTangement was consummated it was learned that the Rev. Wm. Eltinge, of Paramus, could be got for sixteen full Sundays in the year (Paramus agreeing), and that he likewise agreed to give liis six free Sabbaths, making a total of twenty-two Sabbaths in the year, besides two holiday sermons, Totowa to pa}' $300 a year. A proposition was also received from the First Presby- terian church at Paterson to this eftect : If Totowa would pay $250 ("less than one-third of the salary") toward the support of the Rev. Samuel Fisher, Mr. F. would act as their minis- ter in visiting the sick, attending funerals, visiting the schools, and catechising the children, and would preach at Totowa every other Sunday, while the Totowa people would also have the privilege of attending the Presbyterian church. This THE TRAGIC DEAtH OF MRS. GUMMING. ^9 ofter was declined, and after some furtlicr negotiation Mr. El- tinge was secured, on tlie above tei'ms. He always preached in English. XIV. A Tragic Incident. The proposal just mentioned, from the First Presbyterian Church, recalls an earlier occasion when English was preached in the old Totowa church, perhaps for the first time — an occa- sion connected with the most romantically tragic incident in the history of the Passaic Falls. The Presbyterians of the little town had from time to time been favored with a service in Eng- lish, and by the year 1S12 had become so numerous that they thought themselves entitled to regular preaching. Application was accordingly made to the Presbytery of Orange, and that body recognized Paterson as a a mission station, and assigned certain preachers to officiate there at regular intervals. Among those so assigned was the Rev. Hooper Gumming, pastor of the Second Presbyterian Church of Newark. Mr. Cumming was a brilliant young man, the son of Gen. John N. Gumming, of Newark, who had been an officer in the Revolution, afterwards owner of an important line of mail coaches, and had built the first raceway in Paterson. Gen. Gumming was one of the lead- ing citizens of Newark, his son was a graduate of Princeton, of marked ability and engaging manners, a favorite in society, and one of the most promising young clergymen in New Jersey. About six weeks before coming to Paterson to fulfil the assign- ment of Presbytery he had been united in marriage to JMiss Sarah Emmons, of Portland, Me., a young lady spoken of as attractive in person and charming in manners, and but twenty- two 3'ears of age. It is not unlikely that Mr. Cumming thought the trip to Paterson on ministerial duties might be utilized as a continuation of his wedding journey, and doubtless his fond young wife was glad enough to accompany her husband where she was sure she would witness new triumphs of his eloquence, and where she would, in his society, enjoy novel and beauti- ful scenery. VVe can see in fancy, their delightful drive one Sat- urday afternoon, in June, along that charming road from New- ark to Acquackanonk, by the riverside, and so on to Paterson, 4o THE OLD DUTCH CHURCH AT TOTOWA. where they were cordially welcomed by Mr. Samuel Colt, in his spacious mansion on Mai'ket street, near Main, where the Masonic Hall now stands. On Sunda\ morning, June 3ist, iSi3, the bell of the Totowa church clanged out notice that services were to be held that day. It was not the regular Sun- day for Dominie Schoonmaker's ministrations, and the use of the church had been kindly given to the Presbyterians on this occasion, no doubt to the gratification of many of the congrega- tion who longed for a sermon in English. Here is a description of the service, from the vivid and imaginative pen of Peter Archdeacon, as published in his " Sketch of the Passaic Falls," in 1S45. Mr. Archdeacon did not come to Paterson until several years after 1S12, so that his information was necessarily derived from others, but what he lacked in personal knowledge he made up in fertile fancy. Says this veracious chronicler : " He was brilliant as an orator, and seemingly sincere as a Christian ; the congregation was delighted with his discourse, his lady was beautiful and possessed virtues in an eminent degree that smooth the rugged path of life and soften the pillow to divine repose. The concluding words of his discourse were : 'Oh, ye people of Israel, why will ye not return.''' The accent yet hung on his tongue when a blackbird was seen, and with trepidation flew all around and alighted on the pulpit, over the preacher's head. All eyes were turned to this ominous bird. The preacher in silence viewed the agitated throng, all inspired with divination, but none the point could fix. The next day alas ! before the sun had veiled his head behind yon western hill, the flush was nipped, and the lovely seraph's spirit fled to the regions of the blessed ! A melancholv gloom overspread the village ; the silence of death seemed to pervade ; few could give utterance to their tiioughts ; the mysterious appearance of the bird, thought some, was the harbinger ot death ; we turn, the angel to conduct her to the mansions of the blest." It is scarcely necessary to say that the story of the blackbird was an invention of Mr. Archdeacon. The tale is sad enough when simply told. On Monday morning, June 32d, the day after preaching in the Totowa church, Mr. Cumming and his young wife visited the Passaic RECONSTRUCTION OF THE OLb CHURCH. 4* Falls, then In their pristine beauty. Tradition says that he was anxious to hasten back to Newark, and gave a reluctant assent to his wife's desire to visit the Falls. After viewing the scene from various points, together they crossed the narrow chasm to the pi'ecipice on the northwest side of the basin. Having looked he stepped back across the chasm, supposing she was close be- hind him. Looking around, slie was gone ! It is supposed that she had turned to take a second view, became dizzy and fell over the lofty precipice, here ninet}'^ feet in height. Her body was not recovered until the next morning, and was buried the day after, at Newark. Mr. Cumming's mind sustained a shock from which he never recovered, as his subsequent sad and varied career showed. XV. Reconstruction of the Old Church. When Dom. Schoonmaker left, a "party of progress" seems to have arisen in the church, and resolved that the old things should pass away. At the same meeting that his resignation was received (March 13, 1S16), it was resolved to become in- corporated under the act of 1799. Also, to repair the cliurch. Also, '*that the present pews be vacated and thrown into com- mon, and that the present pews be equital?ly appraised b}' the Committee to be appointed to inspect and examine the church, and de'termine what alterations and repairs are necessary," the present value of the old pews to be credited on the purchase of the new ones. The following general committee was appoint- ed : John Joseph Blauvelt, Abraham Godwin, Edo P. Merse- lis, John Doremus, John Van Blarcom, Cornelius Van Winkle, David Benson, Abraham Van Blarcom, John Berdan, Jacob Van Houten, Abraham V. Houten, Albert V. Saun, Edo Mer- selis, John G. Ryerson, Andrew Ackerman. Adrian Van Houten, Garabrant Van Houten, Esq., and Henry Godwin were "appointed Managers to carry into prompt and immedi- ate eflect the determination of a majority of the committee," and to superintend the work. After deliberating two or three times within the next few days, the alterations wei'e agreed upon, a sketch being made by Abrah;mi Godwin, Jr. The work was driven ahead with all dispatch and completed within 42 TllE OLD DUTCH CHURCH AT TOTOWA. the next four months. The old floor was ripped up (by vohm- tary laborers in tlie congregation) and a new one thirteen inch- es higher put in ; more light was obtained by putting a fanlight over the door (sidelights beside the door were also authorized, but not put in) ; the old pews and side-benches were replaced by two double rows of pews much shorter than the others, and not so high by three inches, and a single row^ on each side un- der the galleries, in place of the side benches ; the galleries were put in good repair, and instead of the open railing a panel face was put in (the railing doing service for many years after as a picket fence in John Joseph Blauvelt's garden, on Toto- wa) ; the interior was painted white. The colored people were now assigned the forward part of the northerly gallerj^ and there snt. It was proposed to fit up pews in the galleries, but this was not done. The repairs and alterations having been substantially completed, the church was opened on vSunday, July 14, 1S16, when tlie Rev. Wilhelmus Eltinge preached his first sermon therein, it being "an excellent discourse from Psalm xxvii, 4; 'One thing have I desired of the Lord, tliat will I seek after ; that I may dwell in the house of the Lord all the days of my life, to behold the beaut}' of the Lord, and to inquire in his temple.'" {Min?ites.) On Saturday, July 27th, the pews were sold ; there were sixty-six pews, holding from four to six persons, and they brought the very handsome total of $2,056. Thenceforward the church enjoyed a quiet and rather success- ful career for eleven years. True, there was something of a "breeze" occasioned in 1S25, by Mr. Brant Van Blarcom, of Paterson, submitting to the Consistory and congregation a writ- ten document in which he strongl)' urged the need of having a pastor settled regularlv at Totowa or at Paterson. And he pro- posed that a new chtu-ch be organized in Paterson, to be gov- erned by the Totowa Consistory or by one of its own, and that a pastor be secui^ed to serve both congref^ations, preaching alter- nately on either side of the river. To this end he oftered to give a seven years' lease of " the double-house in Parke street, next north Robertson's watchmaker shop," (where A. &J. Spear's shoeshop now is. No. 93 Main street) , the yearly rental of which PEW HOLDERS IN lSl6. 4^ was $260, and friends offered to furnisli the house for a parsonage. His offer he considered equivalent to $350 a year. It is under- stood that Mr. Van Blarcom wanted to get the Rev. Benjamin C. Taylor, then at Acquackanonk, called to Paterson and Totowa. The Totowa congregation seem to have been very angry at Mr. Van Blarcom's offer, and declared that they were satisfied with Mr. Eltinge, and " resolved, that we arc not yet ready to sell our minister and our souls for the sum of $350 per annum for seven years."

In that year it reports 11 1 families and 78 members. In 1817 there were 130 families and 67 mem- bers in communion ; in 1S21 — 175 families of 1 105 persons, 105 members, 36 having joined during the year on profession of their faith ; in 1S23 — 179 families, 1125 persons, no members, 43 joining on profession ; in 1824 — iSo families, 1 130 persons, 125 members, 13 accessions ; in 1S25 — 180 families, i i40persons, 117 members, no accessions; in 1826 — 180 families, 1150 per- sons, 129 members, 9 accessions ; in 1827 — 170 families, iioo persons, 134 members, 5 accessions; in 1828 — 125 families, 575 persons, 88 members, 4 accessions ; in May, 1830 — 100 families, 600 persons, 95 members, 5 accessions. XVIII. " God's Acre." Such is the tender and poetic name by which the Germans designate the grounds set apart for the sei:)ulture of their dead. Applied to the old Totowa plot it was mathematically correct, the grounds being exactly an acre in extent. As was custom- ary, the first interments were made nearest the church, but in the course of forty years the whole lot east and south of the church was filled with graves. A great many were without any other headstone than a smooth fragment of a field-stone, a foot or two square, generally with no mark on, but sometimes with initials or a date rudely carved on the hard surface. Brown- stone slabs were rare hereabout in those days. The gravcN'ard, extending easterly almost to the brook, has been built over now for fifty yecirs or inore, not a few skeletons having been un- earthed in the digging of cellars, while whatever headstones there were have mostly been worn away doing duty as walks, door-steps and the like. In 1795 this part of the church lot was quite filled with graves, and the lot southwest of the Totowa road (Ryle avenue) was brought into requisition for burial purposes, the first interment being that of Grace King, aged five SOME BURIALS IX " GOD's ACRE." 47 years, daughter of John King, sister of the kite Aaron King, and aunt of the late Gnffith*King.

In the spring of iSSS, the First Reformed church had all the remains yet in the old burying-ground taken up and re- interred in the cemetery of the church on Willis street.

XIX. Burning of the Old Church. On a dry and windy day, on March the 26th, 1S27, the town of Paterson was startled by the cry of fire ! " The two hand en- gines, primitive affairs, were quickly got out and hurried to the scene of destruction — the quaint old Totowa church. But there was no saving the old building, the cedar shitigles of wliich Vvcre dry as tinder, and in the course of an hour nothing but bleak and blackened walls remained of the building so fraught with rich, varied and tender memories, and reminiscences of the wars in the church culminating in the independence ot the Reformed Dutch Church of America, and of wars of the nations, many a stirring incident of which had occurred within sight of its belfry and wdiich had resulted in a nation's freedom. As the crowd stood helplessly by, the old bell which had rung for nearly three- quarters of a century, now wept great tears of metal as the piti- less flames slowly and savagely crawled up and around it, wreathing it in their merciless embrace until at last it fairly w'ept itself away, and the whole roof fell in with a crash. An event of such interest happening to-day would furnish the reporters BURNING OF THE OLD CHURCH. 49 with material for a column or two of " fine writing," historical reminiscences and the like, but here is all tliat the Paterson In- telligencer thought it worth while to say about the fire on the Wednesday following : Fire. — About eleven o'clock, A. M. ou Monday last the roof of the Ee- formed Dutch Church in this town was discovered to be on fire. The wind at the time was j)i etty high, from the southwest, and before the fire engines could arrive the roof had become almost au entire sheet of flame ; and so rapid was the progi-ess of the destructive element, that in less than half an hour the whole wood work of the building became a heap of smoking ruins. A biirning flake carried by the wind from the church, lodged on the thatched roof of the barn belonging to Garabrant Van Houten, Esq. , several hmidred yards distant, which was also entu-ely consumed. Much credit is due to our fire companies, and citizens generally for their prompt and successful exertions to save the adjacent buildings, which, from their combustible materials, and the direction of the wind, were in imminent danger, and seemed to threaten a most extensive conflagration. The fire is supposed to have originated from the carelessness of some per- son shooting, the wadding having lodged on the roof and communicated to the shingles. It is said that some person shot at a bird on the roof, and the wadding lodged between the shingles. The desolate walls remained standing for nearly a year, and were then removed to enter into the construction of the new edifice^ on Main street, near Ellison, whjch was contracted for March Sth, 1828. The old lot was leased for a few years, but finally all that part of it northeast of the Totowa road, now Ryle avenue, was sold and is now built upon, over the graves of the dead now in- terred there for neai'ly a century and a quai'ter. And thus dis- appeared the last vestige of the Old Dutch Church of Toto- wa. Of the events which succeeded the calamity above described we need not speak at length. Suflice it to say that while the congregation seemed to be quite unanimous as to the inexpedi- ency of rebuilding on the old site, they were veiy much divided on the question of a new site, a large party preferring to re- main north of the river, while another large party preferred building in the then growing town of Paterson. The pastor and all but one or two of the Consistory favored the latter 4 50 THE OLD DUTCH CHURCH AT TOTOWA. course, which was ultimately adopted by vote of the congrega- tion. In consequence of this decision Messrs. Gerrebrandt Van Houten, Martinus I. Hogencamp, John Joseph Blauvelt, Adrian R. Van Houten, Cornelius S. Van Wagoner, David Bensen and Cornelius G. Hopper notified the Consistory (Aug. 23, 1827), with assurances of the kindliest feeling, that they would petition Classis in the following month to constitute them a new church, and hence the Second Reformed church, corner of Water and Temple streets, which edifice, by the way, was completed and opened for public worship on Sunday, June 8, 1828, while the Main street church was not dedicated until March 15, 1829. Judge Gerrebrandt Van Houten gave the site for the Second church, contributed liberally of his means towards its erection, and had concluded to pay ofl^" a debt of about $2,000 remaining on it, but died suddenly of apoplexy the night after he had an- nounced his benevolent intention. The fire and the subsequent unhappy divisions had a depress- ing effect on the worthy and zealous Dominie Eltinge, the ex- tent of whose depression may be inferred from the following note, appended to his statistical report to Classis in September, 1827. He says : The additions to our church diiring the year past have been small, only six have been added, these, however, gave very satisfactory evidence of a real change. As a congregation we are at present much afflicted, our house of worship has been consumed by fire, and we are divided as to the site for the new church. "By the River Passdic (!) we have reason to sit down, and weep when we remember Zion, and to hang our harps upon the willows in the midst thereof. " By order of the Consistory of Totowa. It may be remarked that the stone set in the wall over the door of the old church, and bearing the legend and date already given, was carefully preserved and placed in the belfry of the Main street church, where it was undoubtedly destroyed in the fire of December 14, 1871. XX. Supplementary Notes. The critical reader has doubtless noticed a conflict of dates relative to the settlement of Dom. Schoonmaker over Totowa, and the time of service of Dom. Meyer. It is probable that Dom. Schoonmaker's settlement at Acquackanonk and subse- SUPPLEMENTARY NOTES. 5 1 quent long service in both churches, 1791-1S16, led his biogra- pher quoted above (from Sprague's Antials)^ to suppose that his pastorate over each congregation was coequal throughout ; but he is clearly in error, as the Classical records extant show that Dr. Meyer was pastor of Totowa, in connection with Pompton, i773-'9i- A Sunday school was organized in connection with the church, as early as 1825. December 19, of that year, '* Mr. Brant Van Blarcom, one of the Superintendents, laid before the Consistory his accompts for books bought for the Sunday school under the care of this church, amounting to $46.37^, less $11.14 advanced to him," and he was allowed the balance. It is probable that these were the first books bought for the school. The Sunday school was held in a low frame building, twenty or thirt}^ feet in the rear of the church, erected about iSio for a schoolhouse. It was not much injured by the fire of 1S27. With these fragmentary notes, gathered up at odd intervals during many years, amid other more engrossing occupations, ends the history of the Old Dutch Church at Totowa. And yet, does it ? Who can tell what subtle influences that old church still exerts upon the population of Peterson and the surrounding country? While it stood it was a bulwark, a " strong fortress" of earnest piety and staunch orthodoxy. The leaven thus generated permeated the whole of society herea- bouts, and it is not easy to believe that its power is even now exhausted. While it stood, and especially while the preaching was in Dutch, it was a visible sign of the ancient supremacy of that people, and gave them a moral prestige they could not oth- erwise have retained so long. The quaint old stone building is indeed no more, but the Truth therein proclaimed for seventy-two years shall endure forever. APPENDIX. Note A. The only baptismal register of the old church that is known to exist is an oblong volume, bound in parchment, sixteen inches long and six inches wide, containing eighty-two leaves or one hundred and sixty-four pages. The title is in the handwriting of Dominie Marinus, as is also the New Call made to him in 1752, written in a fine, round hand. The subsequent entries have been evidently written by various persons. The ink is faded ; in a few cases the writing is undecipherable. In time the book will be destroyed, or the entries will be so faded that they cannot be read. To guard against such loss, and to make the information more available, it has been, thought well to reproduce the contents of the volume herewith, verbatim et literatim, with an occasional note or translation by way of ex- planation.

The Congregation held several meetings to discuss where the new church should be built, and on May 20, 1827, at a meeting of the Consistory held at the house of Judge Gerrebrandt Van Houten — the old stone house, No. 117 Water street — it was de- cided to build on a site offered by the Society for Establishing Useful Manufactures, 130 feet front on Ellison street and about 100 feet deep on Hamilton Square. This led to a vigorous protest on the part of the dissatisfied members, who appealed to the Classis of Paramus, which sustained them, and on July 2 the Consistory resolved to abandon the project of building on the proposed site, and to sell the material already on the ground, much of the stone of the old church having been cart- ed thither. Following is the notice of sale, from the original in the possession of the writer. The paper is about five inches THE SPLIT IN THE CHURCH. 14! square, and has in each corner the holes made by the tacks wherewitli it was fastened to some convenient fence or door : Stone & BtLilding Timber This afternoon between 5 & 6 O'clock will be sold by auction All the Stone & Buildine Timber lying- on the Lot adjoining; the Paterson Bank By Order of the Trustees of the I St Reformed Dutch Church Totawa R Chiswell Auctioneer 5th July 1827 The dissatisfied members withdrew and organized the Second Reformed Church, on October 14, 18^7. The First Church secured a site on Main and Ellison streets and Hamil- ton Square, and erected the church on Main street, where it stood until destroyed by fire in December, 1S71. VI. Pamphlets by Dominie Marinus. The first of these pamphlets has tlie following title: A I Letter [ to the | Independent Reflector | By David Marin Ben Jesse, Pastor at Aquenonka. | New York : | Printed and Sold by Hugh Gaine, at the Printing | Office, opposite the Old Slip, 1753. Small X" Pp. 31. The Letter is dated "Aquenonka, April 5, 1753." The Dominie says : " T who am the least and youngest son of a cer- 142 THE OLD DUTCH CHURCH AT TOTOWA. tain Church in this Province accept your Challenge. — I would rather enter the Lists in Dutch or in Latin, than in the English tongue, being more expert in either of the former, than in the latter." " Whoever believes Christ was the Messiah, and prac- tices the morality He taught, is to all intents and purposes a complete Christian." '^^ To be a Christian is to be a new Creature in Christ Jesus." He makes a long and labored de- fence of the Clergy, gives a panegyric on William, Duke of Cumberland, and an adjuration to the British. "I am an Englishman born in the Dominions of the best of Kings on earth," he says. The title of the second pamphlet reads thus : A I Remark | on the | Disputes and Conten- tions I in I this Province [ By David Marin Ben Jesse, Pastor at | Aquenonka. | Thou shalt not seethe a Kid in his Mother's Milk. Moses. | New-York : Printed by H. Gaine, at the Printing- Office, in Queen -Street, | between the Fly and Meal-Markets, 1755. Small 40 Pp. 12. This is an attack on King's (now Columbia) College, because of the apprehended attempt toward a union of Church and State. " The Jersey College (now Princeton) has not suc- ceeded in doing everything." " We intend in time to have a College of our own, for the proper education of our youth." This pamphlet was doubtless intended to have a bearing on the pending troubles between the Ccetus and Conferentie par- ties. The founding of an American College for the training of young men for the ministry in the Dutch Church in America was a dream of the CcEtus party, w^hich was ultimately realized in the establishment of Queen's (now Rutgers) College at New Brunswick.
