THE CHRISTIAN CHURCH. The First Christian Church.

A society known as Disciples, Campbellites, or Christians held meetings in Detroit in a private house as early as 1838. In 1846 meetings were held in a school-room near the corner of Congress and Randolph Streets, under the leadership of Rev. W. K. Nay. The same year the use of the State Capitol was obtained, and services were held each Sabbath, and about this time Mr. Nay was suc- ceeded by Rev. Eli Regal. He was serving as pastor in October, 1851. After worship- ing in the Capitol for a few months, the society moved to the Odd Fellows' Hall, on Woodward Avenue: then, on April 9, 1 848, to Fowler's school building, on the north side of Jefferson Av- enue near St. Antoine Street ; from this place they moved to the old City Hall, where they remained until 1863. Several members of the soci- ety then purchased the old Congrega- tional Church on Jefferson Avenue, and on January 3 of that year held their first services there, with Rev. Isaac Errett as pastor. He remained until January 1, 1865, and was at once succeeded by Rev. W. T. Moore. Under Mr. Moore's pastorate, on October 15, 1865, the Howard Street congrega- tion (whose history is given separately) united with the Jefferson Avenue Church, but in January, 1868, they left to re-establish their own society.

Mr. Moore remained until February, 1866, and was succeeded on March 15 by Rev. A. J. Hobbs,

who continued until April 1, 1867. He was followed on May 1, 1867, by Rev. T. V. Berry, and in July of the next year a portion of the congregation, with Mr. Berry, the pastor, left the Jefferson Avenue congregation, and commenced services at St. An- drew's Hall. In 1869 and 1870 Rev. M. S. Clapp was pastor of the congregation at St. Andrew's Hall. Meantime the Jefferson Avenue Church had as its pastors B. A. Hinsdale in 1868, O. P. Millar in 1869, and H. H. Black in 1870.

In March, 1871, the two congregations united, and soon after, under the pastorate of Mr. Clapp, they began worship- ing in the Wash- ington Avenue edi- fice. This building formerly belonged to the Scotch Presbyte- rian Church, and was purchased for and presented to the soci- ety by Colin Camp- bell and Thomas Linn, at a cost of $2,600. The lot cost $7,500, and the prop- erty in 1880 was valued at $15,000. Rev. Gilbert J. Ellis succeeded Mr. Clapp on July 1, 1871, and remained until No- vember 1, 1875. Rev. T. D. Butler served from September 1, 1876, to March, 1878, and Rev. George Clendenning from September 1, 1878, to April, 1880. The next regular pastor was Rev. W. B. Thompson, whose term began in July, 1883.

shiped in the City Hall. Finally, the society pur- chased of the Tabernacle Society a little frame church on Howard Street, for $2,000, and on May 29, 1863, was incorporated as the Howard Street Church of Christ, which is still its legal title. The Howard Street Church seated 200. On October 15, 1865, the society united with that worshiping on Jef- ferson Avenue, and in April, 1866, the old church on Howard Street was sold, and soon afterwards turned into a dwelling. During the first week of January, 1868, the two societies separated, and on July 26, this society first used its building on the northwest corner of Fourth and Plum Streets. The lot cost $1,800 and the building $3,000. The church seats 300. All the pews are free. The average at- tendance in 1880 was 200.

The society has no clergyman, so called, the services being conducted by elders and deacons.

New Jerusalem Church.

The first church of this name in Detroit was organized with seven members on August 25, 1839, at the house of Nathan Goodell, by Rev. H. Weeks. Services were held until the summer of 1842, and then discontinued until March 14, 1844, when Rev. G. Field began teaching the doctrines of this church in the second story of a building opposite the Michi-

gan Exchange. On July 14 following, Sunday morning services, which had been held at the house of S. Hall, were first held at this place.

On January 13, 1846, Mr. Field rented a store underneath, and fitted it up for meetings, and on Sunday, May 3, an upper room in the Republican Block was first used. The society on December 6 moved from there to the United States Court Room, over the Post Office, on the corner of Jefferson Ave- nue and Griswold Street, and there, on January 30, 1848, was fully organized. In September, meetings were held in the County Court Room, on the corner of Griswold and Congress Streets. In 1851 Rev. Jabez Fox became pastor, and on July 18, 1852, the Detroit society of the New Church was incorporated. The society then moved to the old Congregational Church on Jefferson Avenue, holding their first ser- vices there on July 22, 1855, and the same year the pastorate of Mr. Fox ceased. In 1856 Rev. G. Field again became pastor, and as early as February, 1858, the society moved to a room over 154 Wood- ward Avenue, near the Campus Martius, remaining there nearly a year, and then moving back to the old Congregational Church. A lot and building on Macomb Avenue near Park Street was next bought and fitted up at a cost of $4,000, and dedicated August 26, 1860. From this time until 1862 there was no pastor. In the latter year Rev. G. Field re- turned, and remained until 1866.

The Congregational Unitarian Church.

The beginnings of this society date from the win- ter of 1849-1850. Rev. F. W. Holland, secretary of the American Unitarian Society, then paid a visit to

Detroit, and at his suggestion services were held in the United States Court Room, corner of Jefferson Avenue and Griswold Street. On his return trip from the West, another meeting was held in the old seminary building on Griswold Street, and as a result of these meetings, in the spring of 1850, a room was rented in the old Odd Fellows' Hall, an Act of Incorporation ob- tained from the Legislature, and on October 6, 1850, the church was organized and be- came a corporate body. During the summer and fall of 1850 occasional meetings were held by Rush R. Shippen, Dr. Hosmer, Rev. C. M. Taggart, and Rev. T. C. Adam. In April, 1851, Rev. J. A. Penniman, of Savan- nah, Georgia, conducted services, and on July 4 of this year Rev. T. J. Mumford be- came the first regular pastor. He was in- stalled on August 24.
