" The act of excision by General Assembly in 1837, caused deep and lasting feeling. Commissioners to General Assembly were appointed in 1838, who went. I cannot say how diligent search they made, but on their return they reported 'they could not find the General Assembly.' Appointments were made again in 1839. In this case the appointees reported better success; they found the new school body. After that this Presbytery stood aloof from connection with either body till 1854. In 1850, they had a committee draft a petition to both General Assemblies to reunite. As it did not effect the desired object, several attempts were made to recognize and send commissioners to the New School Assembly. A vote was taken in 1852, resulting in there being 14 for to 24 against sending. In 1853, a similar vote showed 14 for to 17 against it. After further debate a second vote was a tie, there being 13 on each side. In 1854, the question was disposed of by a vote of 20 for to 12 against sending.
"So far as I have found evidence for it there have been 9,774 added to the churches on profession; and the same evidence reports that there has been collected in our churches for benevolent objects as follows : For Foreign Missions, $107,245; Home Missions, $57,894; Educational Objects, $53,617 ; Publication, $28,486 ; General Assembly Com- missioners' Fund, $2,111 ; Ministerial Relief, $681 ; Miscel- laneous objects other than above, $132,660 ; total, $382,694. If we had full reports to compare from, I believe they would show that the total number of additions to our churches by profession would exceed 11,000; and that the collections to various benevolent objects would appear to have exceeded half a million of dollars. No reports have

been asked for or made of sustaining our own churches until in 1865. The footing of this shows the amount for five years to have been $155,570, or an average of $31,570 per year for sixteen churches.
" The early efforts of our Presbytery in behalf of various benevolent objects were not limited in their fruits to the amount of money contributed. The following named persons who have been connected with it, or its churches, have for a longer or shorter period been employed as Foreign Missionaries : To the Sandwich Islands-as minis- ters, Jonathan Green, T. Dwight Hunt and Soreno W. Bishop ; as physician, Seth L. Andrews; as printer, Edwin O. Hall; as assistants, Delia (Stone) Bishop and Fidelia (Church) Coan. To India-as ministers, Alanson C. Hall, Ferdinand DeW. Ward and Henry Cherry ; as printer, Elijah A. Webster. To Syria-as minister, Milan H. Hitchcock ; as physician, Henry A. De Forest ; as assistants, Caroline (Sargeant) De Forest and Maria W. (Chapin) Smith. To Singapore-as minister, Alfred North. To Turkey-as minister, Joseph W. Sutphen ; as assistant, Harriet Seymour. To Siam-as assistant, Julia Johnson. To Zulus, Africa-as assistant, Fanny M. (Nelson) Mckinney. To Choctaws -- as minister, Ebenezer Bliss. To Mackinaw, Mich .- as printer, Elisha Loomis. Quite likely there may be others whose names I have omitted. It is not possible to state the amount of labor that has been performed in the Home Missionary work. Much of the labor of our original members was of that kind ; and some has been continued within our bounds to this present time ; while scores of our older or younger ministers have been, or now are, in Home Missionary employ in this and other states.
" In the Sabbath School cause, the Union organized in 1821 was followed by a Rochester Union, organized in 1822, which has, with some modification, been continued in existence to this time. A County Union was organized in 1824, which held annual meetings for many years, at which

schools from the villages and towns gathered in the Court House yard, or other places, to hold their exercises. Their an- nual reports were printed in pamphlet form as late as 1834."
The historical discourse of Dr. Bush consisted mainly in biographical sketches of those who had been quite promi- nent in the history of the Presbytery and in the religious history of the city, from which are gathered the following facts : Rev. Comfort Williams, pastor of the First Church and the first moderator and stated clerk of the Presbytery, " was the acknowledged patriarch of the wilderness." He was a graduate of Yale and Andover. He resigned his charge of the First Church in 1821, and died in Rochester, Aug. 26th, 1825.
Rev. Solomon Allen, a native of Northampton, Mass., had been a Major in the Revolutionary war, and one of those who conducted Andre to West Point. He was not licensed to preach until he was fifty-three years of age, and, while not a great preacher, was great in consecration, courage and benevolence, securing very largely the confidence of the people. He was the father of Solomon Allen, of Philadel- phia, and Moses Allen, of New York. He closed his labors in Brighton in 1820, and died Jan. 19, 1821, in New York city.
Rev. Josiah Pierson, pastor of the church in Bergen, where he died March 7th, 1846, is referred to in the min- utes of Presbytery, passed at the time of his death, as hav- ing " probably done more than any other minister of the gospel in establishing churches and sustaining them in that region. For years when the country was new, he preached to small congregations in school-houses, barns and private dwellings, receiving but a small salary. He counselled and encouraged professors of religion to meet for worship ; aided several small churches in their organization ; preached for them and administered the ordinances to them occasion- ally, until they were able to obtain pastors for themselves."
Rev. Joseph Penney, D. D., the second pastor of the First Church, was educated at Trinity College, Dublin, and
34

at Glasgow. He was a man of superior abilities, fine edu- cation, with a special interest in the natural sciences, and very successful as an educator, and zealous in the temper- ance reform. After leaving Rochester, he was pastor of the church in Northampton, Mass., and President of Ham- ilton College. He died in Rochester in 1860.
Rev. William James, D. D., a native of Albany and edu- cated at Princeton College and Seminary, was the first pas- tor of the Brick Church. He was a diligent student, vigor- ous thinker and elegant writer. Having inherited wealth he was noted for his kindness to the poor and generosity among his friends.
Rev. William F. Curry, a native of Kentucky, was installed pastor of the church at Pittsford, July 14, 1825. He was a clear thinker, a thorough Calvinist and an able preacher, helping to turn the wilderness into a fruitful field. He died at Geneva in 1861.
Rev. Norris Bull, D. D., the champion of Orthodoxy as against Unitarianism in Geneseo from 1822 to 1832, was pastor at Clarkson from 1837 to 1847.
Rev. Joel Parker, D. D., when a young man just from the seminary, was instrumental in gathering and organizing the Third Church of Rochester, in 1827, in which his labors were very signally blessed ; but after remaining with them a little more than three years, he left, greatly to their grief, to establish the First Free Church of New York City.
Rev. Wm. Wisner, D. D., after a remarkably successful pastorate of fifteen years at Ithaca, N. Y., came to the Brick Church in 1831, and labored with great power for five years.
Honorable mention was made of Dr. J. B. Shaw, Dr. F. F. Ellinwood, Dr. C. P. Wing, of Carlisle, Pa. ; Dr. M. J. Hickok, of Scranton, Pa. ; Dr. J. H. McIlvane, of Prince- ton, N. J .; Dr. A. W. Cowles, of Elmira; Dr. Geo. S. Boardman, of Rome; Dr. M. N. Mc Laren, of Caledonia, and Dr. A. G. Hall, of Rochester.
