    1. [NY~Old-News] Utica 1922 Central Methodist Church 75th Anniversary
    2. Janice J.
    3. from UTICA DISPATCH                        November 1922 *  Dinner to Mark 75th Anniversary Of Central Methodist Dedication *  The 75th anniversary of the dedication of Central Methodist Church will be celebrated at a fellowship dinner, Nov. 30 and at an anniversary service, Sunday, Dec. 3. It was announced by the Rev. Russell S. Brown, pastor. *              The Rev. John A. Redmond, pastor of St. Paul's Methodist Church, Niagara Falls, will be the speaker at the fellowship dinner, scheduled for 6:30. Mr. Redmond and the Rev. Albert G. Legg are the only surviving former pastors of the church. It was during the former's pastorate that a director of religious education was added to the staff. *             Guest Preacher at the anniversary service at 11 a. m., Dec 3, will be the Rev. John Warren, superintendent of the Mohawk District. *             The building known as the Central Church was erected by an organization then known as the First Methodist Episcopal Church of Utica and was dedicated Feb. 28, 1860. *             The members of Central can trace the history of their church back to 1808 when the first building for Methodist worship was erected in Charlotte St. in 1815 this group was known as the First Society of Methodist Episcopal Church in Utica and was part of the Oneida District of the Genesee Conference. *            In 1924 a chapel was built at 24 Bleecker St. and the worshippers were known as the Bleecker St. Society. In 1847, 17 members of this Society formed the State St. Methodist Episcopal Church, with the church at 307 State St. *             These two societies united to form the First Methodist Episcopal Church and this group erected the present Central Church in 1869 a cost of $80,000. William Reddy was the first pastor. *             Central Church took its name in 1920 when three Methodist Societies were amalgamated into one. These societies were the First Methodist Church, whose building was used; the South Street Church and the Coke? or Colte? Memorial Church. The South Street Church was organized in 1852 by 80 members of the Bleecker St. Society. The Coke? or Colte? Memorial (Welsh Methodist Episcopal Church) was Organized July 1, 1849. *             Mr. Legg became pastor of Central Church in 1920, when its new name was adopted.  Succeeding pastors had been the late Dustin? C. Johnson, the late L. D. Woodmancy, the late Charles Ru??, the late Walter B. Smith, and Mr. Redmond, who preceded Mr. Brown. *             The church was freed from debt on Nov. 1, 1943, when the mortgage on the chapel was paid. During the present pastorate extensive repairs have been made (The rest of the article is either missing or unreadable about interior and exterior, etc.) *  Transcribed by, John S Wilkinson * My note: Thank you :-) John for this transcription. This article was pasted in a scrapbook of Mary GOUGE HUGHES [Mrs. Edwin] 1863-1944 of Trenton, Oneida Co., NY. She was my maternal great grandmother.

Article Text: Died, with an epileptic fit, on Thursday, 5th of February instant, in the county of Schoharie, Jonathan DANFORTH, Esquire, one of the judges of the court of common pleas, aged 54 years. He was interred in masonic order, on Sunday afternoon, at the town of Middleburgh, the place of his residence. No person had been of more essential benefit to the community than the judge, especially in encouraging the industrious of all avocations; he himself delighted in active pursuits, and generously rewarded those who excelled in that way. As a private citizen he was beloved by all; engaging in his manners, pleasant in his conversation and of an amiable disposition, he was capable of ingratiating himself into the favors of even the stranger. Ever solicitously anxious to preserve peace around him, he busily employed the happy faculty he possessed in uniting discordant opinions, in calming the bickerings and in removing those neighborhood animosities, too often cherished, and ever tend! ing to mar social bliss and interrupt domestic harmony. To the poor his benefactions were many, administering to them comfort, consolation and support; while he endeavored to reclaim the idle and vicious by recommending to them habits of industry and honesty. As a husband and father he was affectionate, humane, and peculiarly exemplary in introducing moral precepts in his family. I pass no encomium upon his memory to his acquaintances, to them he was known; far easier would it be to add a volume to the list of his virtues, than to detract the least from the purity of his reputation. He has left a worthy family to lament his loss, which is better felt than described. Nothing could be more poignant and affecting than bearing testimony to the closing scene; for notwithstanding the intense severity of the cold, so great a concourse of people was never before witnessed t a burial in this county, every eye appeared suffused in tears and every heart melted in grief. It was no! t a mother with her children alone left to bemoan the loss of their pr otector, but a community of children moaning the loss of their common parent. ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ NY-Old-News ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ NewspaperAbstracts.com - Finding our ancestors in the news!
