1882 This day, being the Fiftieth Anniversary of the Conse- Oct. 31. cration of Bishop Smith, a framed photograph of St. Andrew's Church, Hanover was presented to him as a souvenir of the occasion, accompanied by the following letter :
Hanover, Massachusetts, Oct. 31 A. D. 1882.
REVEREND FATHER IN GOD :- In the month of May 1817,-immediately after your admission to the office of Deacon in the Church of God, by the saintly and sainted Bishop Griswold, on the 23rd of April of that year- you accepted an invitation to officiate in St. Andrew's Church, Hanover, and then began your labors as a Parochial Minister. We ask your acceptance of the accompanying photograph of the first Church, within whose walls you were called to minister. The frame (the work of one of the parishioners) is constructed of pieces of its three successive chancel- rails - the outer one, of mahogany, is from that which was in the Church at the time of your ministrations in it -the middle one, of pine is from that placed there in 1857-the inner one, of ash, is from the one in use since the enlargement and reconstruction of the edifice-in 1880. With loving wishes for your happiness on this day and on all the days of your earthly life I am with great veneration and warm regard
Yours in Christ, WM. HENRY BROOKS. The Rt. Rev. B. B. Smith, D. D. L. L. D., Bp. of Ky. and Pres. in the Ho. of Bps.

ST. ANDREW'S CHURCH.
1882 At 4 o'clock in the afternoon, a service memorial of St. Sept. 3. Andrew's Scituate (which in 181 1, became St. Andrew's
Hanover), was held on the site - Church Hill -- of the Church-edifice opened for Divine Worship Oct. II A. D. 1731.
A brief account of the services, and the address delivered on the occasion, were published in pamphlet form. The antique Holy Table in the Chancel (referred to in the History of the Parish, in the Parish Register begun April 1, 1872) it is believed was in St. Andrew's Church Scituate, October II A. D. 1731 when it was first opened for Divine Service.
It undoubtedly was as early as 1737.
The warrant for the latter statement is as follows : Originally the table was colored with a red stain ; subsequently this red stain was covered with paint, either white, or of a very delicate cream color ; when Aug. 23, 1875 the table was restored at the expense of Horatio Bigelow and his wife, parishioners, the name CHARLES BROCKWELL, that of the second resident minister of the Parish, who removed from it about Sept. 1737, was found written in pencil, under the outer covering of paint, and on the red stain.
1883 The following communication from the Rev. Henry W. June 9. Tucker, M. A. London, Eng. was received.
"Society for the Propagation of the Gospel in Foreign Parts." 19 Delahay Street, Westminster, S. W., 24, May, 1883.
MY DEAR SIR :- Your "Memorial of St. Andrew's Church, Scituate " has been read here with much interest.
