Hanson Place Baptist Church .- In the latter part of 1×53, a Sunday-school was commenced in a vacant store on the south side of Atlantic ave., near Nevins street. From this beginning resulted the Atlantic Street Baptist Church, which was organized June 18, 1854, with twenty-five members. The congregation immediately proceeded to erect a chapel on Atlantic st., near Powers, at a cost, including site, of $6,000. It was dedicated May 1, 1855. It was a brick structure, with 300 sittings.

Four years later lots were purchased at the corner of Han- son place and Portland ave., and a large structure was erected there. It was dedicated in November, 1860. On its removal to its new location, the congregation assumed its present name of Hausou Place Baptist Church.

To enlarge the auditorium the partition walls between it and the lecture and Sunday-school rooms were removed, the floors were lowered, and galleries were constructed, and the audience-room is now capable of seating 2,000 persons. . A lecture and Sunday-school room stand on the easterly side of the house, and connected with it.

wards all religious and charitable causes; and, hearing about 1867, that a lady of Brooklyn had offered to the Baptist de- nomination a valuable lot on Clinton ave., if they would build a chapel thereon, Mr. M. bought eight lots adjoining, and at ouce proceeded to build a chapel. It was his purpose to erect the main church edifice, with the proceeds of his business, on the lots adjoining the chapel, and towards this he worked diligently and energetically, but death claimed him before his work was completed. His family, however, took up the work he had commenced, and finished the chapel, which is one of the most complete in the country, being a brick structure, 50 by 90 feet in size, with brown- stone trimmings, and of remarkable simplicity and beauty of finish. Its cost, including that of grounds, was $70,000. Rev. E. T. Hiscox, D. D., was Pastor. He was succeeded by Rev. S. H. Pratt.

By reason of an imperfection in the title, the church lost its property, and disbanded. The mem- bers united with others from the Hanson Place Baptist Church, and formed the Centennial Baptist Church, which was organized December 14, 1875, with 185 members. The present Pastor, J. D. Fulton, D. D., was called and entered upon his duties January 1, 1876.

The property on Clinton ave. was purchased, and here the congregation worshiped till 1879, when the Brooklyn Rink, on Clermont ave., near Myrtle (the cost of which was $127,000), was purchased for $50,000, and fitted up for a free house of worship, at an expense of $9,000. It was dedicated in December of that year.

Rev. JUSTIN D. FULTON, D. D., came to Brooklyn, in 1873, as Pastor of the Hanson Place Church. Having his own views as to the manner of reaching the people, and not meeting with the favor which he desired, he resigned and org. the Ceutennial Baptist Church. In 1879, the Rink was bought and refitted for a place of worship. The church numbers 500 members, the Sabbath-school about the same. The work of the church is supported entirely by voluntary contributions.

Sands Street Mission. In 1858, Peter Balen hired a room over a cooper's shop, in John st., near Bridge, and established a mis- sion school there. The mission was taken in charge by the Pierrepont Street Baptist Church, and, after two years, was removed to a house in Prospect st., that had been used as a dance-house.

It then took the name of Prospect Street Mission. In the midst of vile surroundings, the mission continued its work till 1868, when the building was sold to the Board of Education, and the children were taken to the church school, cor. Pierrepont and Clinton sts.

In 1869, Rev. John Toomath, a blind man, who had been a missionary here since 1862, engaged a room in Sands st., that had been used as a lager beer and billiard saloon ; and the missiou was removed to this place, where it has siuce continued.

The Superintendents of this mission, front the first, have been : Jolın L. Plummer, Thomas Vernon, Isaac Davis, J. Leland, Richard Oliver, E. H. Loud, E. Sniffen, W. R. Anderson, W. J. Oliver, J. Schriever, and the present Sup't, Richard Oliver.

Herkimer Street Baptist Church originated in a Sunday- school that was established by Washington Avenue Church, in Fulton st., near Troy ave., about 1861. A chapel was crected for this mission at the corner of Troy ave. and Her- kimer st., and in this the Herkimer Street Baptist Church was organized in 1865. In the summer of 1876, this chapel was enlarged to mect the growing wants of the congrega- tion, and it now has a seating capacity of 435. It is a wooden structure on a brick basement.

The Pastors of this church have been: Revs. - Giscard, --- Baker, D.D., Henry Waring, Wm. Reid and John Evans.

Rev. WILLIAM REID, born in Ayrshire, Scotland, 1812; grad. 1839, Conu. Literary Institution; located at Wethers- field, 1839-'40; Tariffville, 1840-'44; Bridgeport, 1845-'54; New London, 1854-'61; Greenpoint, 1861-'7; New York, 1867-'75; Brooklyn, 1876-'83.

Soon afterward, two lots on the corner of Sixth ave. and Lincoln place were purchased, at a cost of $4,000, and a chapel was erected at an expense, including furniture. of about $6,000. Preaching was added to the Sun- day-school services, and Rev. Henry Bromley became preacher and missionary.

Marcy. Avenne Baptist Church .- When the Washington Avenue Baptist Church had appointed a committee to survey the field and look ont for a favorable opening to begin a new enterprise in the then Twenty-first Ward, the Central C'on- gregational Church intimated a willingness to convey their inission interest to the Baptists. The property, corner of Marey ave. and Monroe st., consisting of lots 50x190 feet, with the chapel and Sanday-school furniture, was conveyed to the Washington Avenue Baptist Church, for $5,000.

Mr. Theodore M. Banta became superintendent of the mis- sion. The first regular session of school was held on the 7th day of July, 1472, with 9 teachers and officers and 55 scholars.

On Tuesday evening, July 2. 1472, the first prayer-meeting was held. The services were conducted by Rev. A. A. Pin- ney, and the following were present, namely: Ilenry A. Caldwell, Garret Ditinars, II. B. Porter, Win. S. Durbrow, W'm. C. Chapman, Theodore M. Banta, L. P. Brockett, Geo. R. Graves, Myron Tanner, and George S.

Dr. Moore, of the Wash-

ington Avenne Baptist Church. January, 1873, arrange- ments were made with Rev. J. A. Appleton to preach every Sabbath evening nntil the first of May. Subsequently, Brother Delavan DeWolf, was engaged for six months to preach every Sabbath evening, and take general charge of the interest. In October, 1873, the prospects appeared sufficiently encouraging to warrant the formation of a church. On the evening of November 10, 1873, a meeting was held, whereat forty-five persons presented letters of dismission from various Baptist churchies (twenty-seven being from Washington Avenue Church).

An organization was effected under the name of the Marcy Arenue Baptist Church of Brooklyn ; and, at an adjourned ineeting, held one week subsequently, Brethren Edwin Ives, Garret Ditmars, and William B. Fox wero elected Deacons. H. A. Caldwell was elected Treasurer, and Rollin O. Smith, clerk. December 2, 1873, an election for Trustees was held, whereat the following-named persons were chosen: Ilenry 1. Caldwell, John Hills, John T. Davies, Chas. B. Wyckoff, and Theodore MI. Banta.

At a meeting held December 8, 1873, to consider the subject of calling a Pastor, Rev. Dr. Jeffery received the unanimous vote of all present, and he entered upon the pastorate the following Sabbath, December 14, 1873.

The next evening, December 15, a conncil was held in the chapel, composed of delegates from all the Baptist churches of the city and vicinity, which recognized the church as a regular Baptist church, and the hand of fellowship was ex- tended to the church, throngh its Pastor, by the Rev. Dr. Moore, of Washington Avenne Church.

In January, 1874, it was determined to enlarge the church accommodations. Three additional lots were purchased, giving 125 feet on Marcy avenue, by 100 feet on Monroe street, and a commodious chapel was erected by Deacon Garret Ditmars, under the plans and superintendence of Wm. B. Ditmars. The chapel was dedicated on the 11th day of October, 1874. The property cost, for lots, buildings, and furniture, $21,000, and consists of lots, 162 feet on Marcy avenue, by 100 feet on Monroe street, with a frame building. 76 feet wide and 100 feet deep, the whole costing over $32,000.

GREENPOINT BAPTIST CHURCH, 105 NOBLE STREET.

The First Baptist Church, Greenpoint .- In 1847, there were about thirteen Baptists living in Greenpoint, who, feeling the need of worshiping according to Baptist usage, organized a church with nine members in the old Origen house in Frank- lin avenue. Rev. Mr. Jones and others supplied the pulpit until 1849, when a small house was built, costing about $700, seating one hundred persons. Preaching was continued for two years. Mr. Peter Boyce officiated from July, 1851, to April, 1853, when he desired to relinquish the charge; but the church voted that "Mr. Peter Boyce be continued as our Pastor for an unlimited time."

HISTORY OF KINGS COUNTY.

Sampson White was their Pastor. They hired the Uris Hall, then opposite the City Hall, for about a year. Lots were bought on Concord st., where a meeting-house was erected which yet remains.

The membership increasing beyond the limits of the old building, the church, in 1873, purchased their present property on Canton st. of the Central Baptist Church, at a cost of $8,000, and renovated and furnished it anew. The member- ship, Dec., 1883, is 560, with a very interesting Sunday-school. There is also connected with the church a Female Home Missionary and Dorcas Society, a Mutual Relief Society, a Young People's Social Union, and a Foreign Mission Society.

The Pastors have been : Revs. Sampson White, whose pastorato commenced in 1847; Leonard Black, 1851; Simon Bundick, 1853; Sampson White, 1857: Win. J. Barnett, 1862: and the present Pastor, Willian T. Dixon, 1863.

The Harrison Ave. German Baptist Church, originated in a Mission Sunday-school, undertaken by some of the mem- bers of the German Bap. Ch., of New York, in a private house on Harrison ave., E. D. In 1878, they rented the chapel-specially built for their use-which they still occupy. The pulpit was supplied by Rev. C. Damm, then Pastor of the Ger. Ch. of South Brooklyn; and by other preachers from New York city. Although few in numbers and weak in means, they finally called the Rev. H. Trumpp, Pastor of the Ger. Bap. Ch., in Albany, N. Y., who entered upon this charge May 1, 1881. On the 23d of same month, they org. as a church, with 47 members; and in the next month were duly recognized by a council of the Bap. Church of Brooklyn and vicinity. The growth of the church, since that date, has been very steady and encouraging. The membership is now (July, 1883) 99. The chapel seats about 200; but is too small and insufficient for their purposes. The Sunday-school is in a flourishing condition, with an enrollment of 250 scholars and 24 teachers; and would be larger, if it bad larger accom- modations. The church is a self-sustaining one-united in action-in much need of a larger edifice, and deserving of the sympathy of its sister churches.

First Swedish Baptist Church of Brooklyn was organized Jan., 1884, with a membership of 94, who withdrew from the Swedish Baptist Church in New York to organize a church of their own in Brooklyn. Services are held in a hall at 16 Smith street. Rev. Mr. Lundin is the Pastor.

Meetings were held in the District School-house, and the Village Court-house, until a frame structure was erected on the corner of 5th and South 1st streets, and dedicated June 29, 1843.

Ministry : Rev. Lawson Muzzey, Sept. 15. 1841, to Nov. 8, 1843; Rev. A. I'. Mason, 1844-'49.
