O. Westergreen, one year: A. J. Anderson, two years ; S. B. Newnan, two years; N. O. Westergreen, four years. During the pastorate of Mr. Westergreen they erected their fine new church edifice, at a cost of about $17,000. It stands on the corner of Waters and Kellogg streets. Rev. John Liend was the next pastor in charge, remaining two years. During Mr. Liend's term, the house was finished and a great por- tion of the debt was paid off. Succeeding Mr. Liend, in the order in which they are named, were Revs. Al- fred Anderson, three years; O. Gunderson, three years ; H. W. Ekland, two years ; E. Shogren, two years, and then C. G. Nelson, the present pastor. At the time of the erection of the new house of wor- ship, an old house was purchased, moved onto the church property and refitted for a parsonage, and was used for such until last year, when it was sold, moved off and a new parsonage commenced, which was completed in the early part of this year at a cost of $2,000.

The first members were John Peter Peterson, Peter Cassell, Anders Anderson, Mrs. Sophia and Miss Carrie Anderson, and Miss Caroline Lassan.

This society has been quite prosperous and has a membership at present of about 330, with an aver- age attendance at Sunday-school of 200.

The Methodist Episcopal (African) Church is lo- cated on Tompkins street, and is in a thriving condi- tion. Rev. J. W. Laws is the present pastor, and he presides over a congregation of some :So members. During the past year they have been making many improvements in and about their house of worship. They have a good Sabbath-school, with some 75 members. Mr. Laws is an eloquent man and a great favorite with his congregation.

First Congregational Church. The rapid increase of population in this community, and the want of sufficient room in the Presbyterian house of worship to accommodate all who applied, led the pastor and ៛ many members of that church to the conviction that the time had arrived for the organization of a new church.

Accordingly, after a full discussion of the matter in various meetings held for that purpose, and with the general assent of the church, a number of breth- ren and sisters observed a day of fasting and prayer, in order to secure the divine aid and blessing in their proposed undertaking.

KNOX COUNTY.

November 9, 1855, those interested met at the lect- ure-room of the Presbyterian Church at 2 o'clock P. M., and 51 members presented themselves for or- ganization into a Congregational Church. After their organization, they voted that the church be called the First Congregational Church of Gales- burg.

It was also voted to extend an invitation to Rev. Edward Beecher, D. D., of the Salem Church, Bos- ton, to become the pastor of the church, which invi- tation was accepted.

Rev. Edward Beecher served the church until 1871. They had supplies until 1872, when Rev. M. L. Williston assumed the pastorate, remaining until 1876. He was succeeded by Rev. A. A. Ells- worth, who remained until Rev. J. W. Bradshaw, the present pastor, was called. Mr. Bradshaw is a man of culture and ability, and is advancing the interests of the church.

During the past year the Young People's Literary Society was organized, which is doing a good work. The church edifice was erected in 1856 at a cost of $15,000. It had the misfortune of losing its spire, carried away by a tornado in 1858. It was replaced the same year. Present membership 321, with a Sab- bath-school of 266 members.

Presbyterian Church. This congregation is the result of the union of the Second Presbyterian Church and the Old-School Presbyterians, which were offshoots from the First Church, they having organized into separate congregations in 1854. Dur- ing the winter of 1869-70 the question of a union of the two churches was discussed at length, and was finally agreed upon, the union taking place March 1. Services were held in the house belong- ing to the Second Presbyterian Church. Rev. M. B. Lowrie, who was for many years pastor of this church, resigned early in 1885, when they were with out a pastor for several months, and were served by supplies. In November last a call was extended to Rev. Mr. Worrall, which was accepted, and in De- cember following he entered upon the discharge of his duties.

The membership at present is about 250, with a flourishing Sabbath-school of 225 scholars.

Christian Church. An organization of the mem- bers of this church was perfected some years ago. Meetings were held in private rooms for some time, when the old Swedish Methodist Episcopal Church

building was purchased for $1,000. Subsequently it was removed from East Ferris street to West Tompkins street, and refitted.

This congregation has not been very prosperous. They had at one time a membership of 60. Many of their members have moved away, and no regular services have been held for several months.

The Lutheran Church was organized in Novem- ber, 1852, with about 20 members. It was organ- ized by Dr. T. N. Hasselquist, now of Rock Island. Many of those who formed the first organization are still living, and members of this church. The pres- ent house of worship was erected in 1869 at the cor- ner of Water and Seminary avenues, at a cost of $15,000. Since then a parsonage has been secured, worth $3,000. Mr. Hasselquist served the church until 1864, when he was succeeded by Rev. A. W. Dahlsten, who remained until 1869. From 1869 to 1873 Rev. N. T. Winquist had charge, and was fol- lowed by Rev. S. P. A. Lindahl, who remained until 1885, when the present pastor, Rev. C. A. Backman, commenced his duties. Communicant members number about 1,000 ; total membership, 1,600. The past year the membership was increased nearly 100. Mr. Backman is an earnest worker and a gentle- man of fine ability and scholarship. To him is due in a great measure the present prosperous condition of the church. An interesting Sabbath-school is one of the attractive features of this society. The congregation have two sewing societies and a com- mittee to look after the wants of the poor. A school- house has been erected, adjoining the church, at a cost of $2,000. Its dimensions are 40x60 feet. To- tal valuation of church property, $25,390.

The Second Lutheran Church was organized in August, 1868, by Rev. Nickolans Bergenskold. They erected a substantial house of worship. Considera- ble interest has been awakened in this church the past year, and the membership has been increased to upward of 200. They have a good Sunday-school, with an average attendance of 75. Present pastor, Rev. E. G. Hjerpe.

First Baptist Church. This congregation was or- ganized in 1847. Some years after their organiza- tion they purchased a lot on the corner of Broad and Tompkins streets, upon which they erected a church building. In 1857 a portion of the membership withdrew and formed what was called the Cherry Street Baptist Church. This separation did not

1033

KNOX COUNTY.

prove advantageous, and Nov. 6, 1864, they again united and formed the present church, called the First Baptist Church. Rev. Mr. Stickney was the first pastor, serving the church one year. He was followed by Revs. A. Gross, Barry, Reuben Newton, Silas Tucker, Eustis, J. W. Daniels, H. H. Northrup, W. W. Moore, all serving short terms, until 1865. In the spring of 1865, Rev. Wm. D. Clark took charge, serving until 1868. It was during his pas- torate that they erected the present fine edifice, which cost $29,000. Rev. J. H. Griffith followed Mr. Clark, remaining until 1873, when he was succeeded by Rev. W. M. Haigh, who remained until 1877. From 187; to 1878 Rev. W. H. H. Templeton was in charge; from 1878 to 18So, Rev. J. W. L. Booth. Mr. Cooth was succeeded by Rev. O. A. Williams, the present pastor.

During the past year the inside of the building has been redecorated at a cost of $1,000. This society is in a prosperous condition, and has a membership at present of 400, and a Sabbath-school of 550 schol- ars, which is in charge of E. R. Drake, Superintend- ent.

Second Baptist (African) Church was organized in 1865 by Rev. A. W. Jackson. Their house of wor- ship stands on the corner of South and Cherry streets. It is a good frame building, costing about $5,000. Rev. A. W. Newsom is the present pastor, and has proved a good and successful pastor for this organization, and has done much toward invigorating and advancing its interests. To him is the church indebted for the large increase in its membership during the past year, and its present favorable finan- cial condition. They have a membership of about 200, and a Sabbath-school numbering some 50 pupils.

Episcopal Church. Grace Church was organized in 1859. Their church building is located on the corner of Prairie and Tompkins streets. It is a frame building of Gothic architecture. Rev. C. Shrimpton is the present pastor, and has an average attendance at his service of 250. A Sunday-school is attached, which is very prosperous, and is con- ducted by W. F. Bailey, the efficient Superintendent.

Universalist Church. This society was organized in January, 1856, with some 25 members. It has had its periods of prosperity and adversity during.all these years. Not having the strength of organiza-

tion which is secured by the orthodox system, these organizations are often depressed for want of proper support, and sometimes broken up altogether.

The present condition of this church in Gales- burg is very fair, and it is reasonably prosperous. The society is out of debt and has a good house of worship. The present membership is about 180, with an average attendance of 150. An interesting Sabbath-school is one of the features of the society, which is under the superintendency of John W. Grubb. Connected with the church is a Young Peo- ple's Missionary Association, the objects of which are to develop the missionary service, distribute religious literature and to raise funds in the interest of the church. The present pastor is Rev. S. Crane.

The Church of Corpus Christi (Catholic). The first opening of the Catholic service in Galesburg was by a missionary at a very early day. Services were held in a shanty, which was afterward blown down. Rev. John O'Neil was the first settled priest, and it was during his pastorate that the first church building was erected, which was in 1857. This was located in the southwest part of the town.

Father O'Neil was succeeded in 1863 by Rev. James Power, who only remained one year, when Rev. Maurice Howard assumed charge. Mr. How- ard served the church until 1877, when Rev. Joseph Costa, the present pastor, was appointed.

Father Costa neither liked the old church build- ing nor its location, and it was not long after he as- sumed charge before he began to lay his plans for a new edifice and a new location. What he wanted was a good location in the center of the city. All available ground, however, was occupied. But he made up his mind he would not build until he se- cured grounds that suited him. A few years' waiting and the exercise of a little strategy finally brought him into possession of just the site he wanted, which was on the corner of South and Prairie streets. Work was then commenced, which finally terminated in the completion of the present edifice. The corner- stone was laid in May, 1884, by Bishop Spaulding. It was dedicated Sunday, Oct. 4, 1885, the services being conducted by Bishop Spaulding, of Peoria. The building is 122 feet long by 57 feet in width. The foundation is of cut stone, and the superstruct- ure is of brick. Its graceful and well-proportioned spire rises 150 feet high. The auditorium is large,

light and airy and elegantly finished, having a heavy Gothic ceiling with groined side arches on each side, and across the front is a gallery. From each side of the altar there are also two invisible galleries, which command a view of the altar through arched open- ings. The altar is beautifully and artistically de- signed. The panel in front represents the Lord's Supper. The figures are in basso-relievo, carved in wood and exceedingly well executed. The basement, which is quite high, is fitted up for a vesper room and other like services. It is lighted with gas and heated by steam. Mr. Guido was the architect and Matthias Schnell the builder. To Father Costa, however, the credit must be given for the design and plan of the edifice. Total cost of building and grounds, $35,000. A bell has been put in, weighing 600 pounds, and costing $600. A large pipe organ is to be an additional attraction.

Father Costa is assisted by Father Selva. The present membership of the church consists of 200 parochial families and about 100 mixed families.

Secret and Benevolent Societies.

HERE are, perhaps, more organizations, and in a more flourishing condition, coming under the above heading, than in many cities of double its size. Almost every variety of secret and benevolent societies is repre- sented here, as shown by the following sketches :

KNIGHTS TEMPLAR.

Galesburg Commandery, No. 8. The Blue Lodge and the Chapter were established at an early day, and have been prosperous notwithstanding the bitter opposition made by a man by the name of Jonathan Blanchard. It seemed that the more secret societies were denounced by this man, the more they pros- pered, and in the winter of 1859 the members of the Masonic fraternity concluded to establish a com- mandery. Prominent among these were Messrs. T. N. McQueen and William McMurtry. The former had received orders in Ireland and the latter in Joliet. A dispensation, upon petition of these men and others, was granted at Chicago, May 9, 1859. The first conclave was held May 31, 1859, in Ma- sonic Hall. The officers and Sir Knights present were : H. W. Hubbard, E. C .; William McMurtry, Gen .; T. N. McQueen, Capt. Gen .; R. E. Good- rich, Treas .; J. W. Parish, Rec .; Z. N. Hotchkiss, S. W .; C. E. Munger, J. W .; L. Keyon, Warder, and J. P. Fuller, C. G. At this conclave ten com)- panions petitioned for the orders, all of whom were accepted, to wit : James A. Thompson, John W. Spaulding, George C. Lanphere, H. M. Hale, John A. Marshall, A. C. Dunnaker, A. W. Simpson, Sid- ney Meyers, Caleb Finch and E. W. Hazzard. On the 12th of December, 1859, a special dispensation was granted to the commandery, in which James A. Thompson was appointed E. C .; J. W. Spaulding was appointed Generalissimo and Caleb Finch, Cap- tain-General. A charter for the commandery was granted Oct. 22, 1860. The charter members were James A. Thompson, John W. Spaulding, George C. Lanphere, Hollis M. Hale, Augustus S. Converse, Caleb Finch, John A. Marshall, T. N. McQueen, H. D. S. Smith and S. H. D. Mathews, of whom only two are living-Messrs. H. M. Hale and J. A. Marshall. On Dec. 18, 1863, the officers of the commandery were publicly installed. During this year it was honored by the Grand Commandery of the State, by the election of one of its members, G. C. Lanphere, Grand Commander. At several different times the commandery has gone into encampment for the pur- pose of drill, once at Rock Island, once at Keiths- burg, once at Oquawka and once at Knoxville. Like most of similar bodies, this society has had its

periods of prosperity and adversity, but it has passed successfully through all and stands to-day as high as any commandery outside of Chicago, and has a membership of 170. With financial matters in an excellent condition, it has a record of which any body might be proud. Meetings are held in the Masonic Hall. Present officers: J. L. Burkhalter, E. C .; P. S. Port, Gls .; A. A. Price, Capt. Gen. ; N. A. Knowles, Prelate ; Thomas Harrison, S. W .; T. J. Hale, J. W .; P. F. Brown, Treas .; J. H. Cal- kins, Rec.
