The church is of stone,-after a plan by II. Dudley, of New York,-elerestory, with nave and aisles, and chapel attached, fronting 76 feet on Liberty Street, and extending along the line of Washington Square 140 feet. The recent purchase and gift of an adjoining lot by H. H. Cook, Esq., of New York City, has added greatly to the beauty and value of the property.

Mr. Bostwick resigned his charge at the end of fourteen years of hard service, and removed to Illinois, where he died, in 1846, greatly beloved and lamented. It was his hand that, Noah-like, first planted the vine in Pleasant Valley, from which so important results have followed.

ITis successors at Bath have been the Rev. P. L. Whip- ple, who died very suddenly in 1844; the Rev. Dr. Wilson, now professor in Cornell University; the Rev. Levi H. Corson ; the Rev. Almon Gregory ; and the present inenm- bent, Rev. O. R. Howard, D.D., who has now nearly com- pleted his twenty-two years as rector of St. Thomas'.

METHODIST EPISCOPAL CHURCH OF BATH.

The first society of the Methodist Episcopal Church of Bath was incorporated on the 4th of September, 1822. During several years previous there had been Methodist preaching in the village, at first occasionally and then regu-

larly at intervals of two or three weeks, as the circuit preachers came around on their large circuits and preached in the court-house or school-house if unoccupied and were not locked against them ; when these could not be obtained they preached in private houses.

In 1814 Bath was included in Newtown Cireuit, with Newtown (now Elmira) as its centre, but with its circum- ference undefined, in charge of one of the old, energetic pioneers,-Rev. Gideon Lanning. But the first Method- ist sermon of which we can obtain definite account was preached at the residence of Mr. Gaylord, the house still standing on the north side of Steuben Street and now occupied by " Jo. Bell."

In 1820, Revs. James S. Lent and Nathan B. Dodson, being then on this circuit, made Bath a regnlar preaching- place once in two weeks, and formed a society or class com- posed of thirteen members, and these mostly females.

In 1822, Rev. Benjamin Sabin was in charge of the cir- cuit. During this year the Rev. Loring Grant, a young man of good preaching powers, educated a lawyer, was sent out by the conference to look after the finances of the church generally, and especially the titles and interests of church property. He came to Bath and saw its need of a Methodist house of worship. A meeting was convened on the 3d of September for the purpose of incorporating the first society of the Methodist Episcopal Church, at Bath, at which meeting John Whiting, Dr. Simpson Ellas, George Wheeler, Jeremiah Baker, and Darius Read were elected trustees, as appears by the certificate bearing the signatures of Rev. L. Grant and Eleazer Dewey, presiding, and filed in Steuben County 4th of September, 1822.

The Revs. Grant and Sabin circulated a subscription for funds to build a church ; the frame of which was reared in May, 1823, by John Whiting and Mr. Degolier, and was by them finished with galleries and bell-tower in 1826, under the supervision of a board of trustees, elected in 1825, viz. : John Donahe, George Wheeler, Moses Dudley, Lewis Biles, and John Whiting. And the church was then dedicated by the Rev. George Lane, of Berwick, Pa., then presiding elder on Ontario District.

On the 9th day of April, 1825, the title to the church lot was conveyed by Howell Bull and wife to John Donahe and others, trustees, etc., of the First Society of the Metho- dist Episcopal Church in Bath.

In 1846, under the pastorate of Rev. Earl B. Fuller, the house was reconstructed, and by Rev. John Kennard the galleries taken out, a floor thrown across so as to form a basement with an audience-room above, and was in June, 1846, reconsecrated by Rev. Dr. J. Copeland, of Lima ; the Rev. Dr. O. R. Howard, then of Painted Post, preach- ing in the evening.

In December, 1865, under Rev. A. F. Morey, pastor, it was determined, at a church-meeting, to make an effort to enlarge or rebuild the church edifice. A subscription of about $7000 was obtained, and a plan was adopted for a new church edifice, to be 90 feet long by 41 in breadth, with tower and spire, and andience-room and basement for Sun- day-school and class-rooms; the structure to be a frame, ceiled externally, and veneered with one course of brick. P. S. Donahe, J. Carter, and A. R. De Puy were elected a

building committee to supervise the erection. The job was let to E. W. Buck and A. J. Barton, to furnish the mate- rial and finish the house for the sum of $8300. The old church building was sold to Joseph Carter for $775, and the closing services were held therein on Sunday, the - day of -, 1866. The foundation of the new church was prepared, and the corner-stone laid with appropriate ceremonies, on the 16th day of May, 1866, by Rev. J. G. Gulick, presiding elder of this district, assisted by Warner Gilbert, Master Mason, in presence of the officers of the church and a large concourse of people, who were addressed by the Rev. Dr. J. Lindsay, President of Genesce College, and Rev. Dr. A. D. Wilber, of Lima.

From a memorandum of the deposits in the cavity of the corner-stone, the following-named persons were then officers of this church : Presiding Elder of this district, Rev. J. G. Gulick ; Pastor of Church at Bath, Rev. A. F. Morey ; Trustees, P. S. Donahe, Nelson Barney, R. Hardenbrook, Jas. McBeath, and A. Wells. Class-Leaders, Platt l'. Smith, Wm. Crow, Hiram Brundage, R. Hardenbrook, Samuel Ovenshire, Thos. C. Davison, and J. HI. Thorp; Stewards, P. S. Donahe (Recording Steward ), A. R. De Puy, T. C. Davison, J. Carter, and R. Hardenbrook ; Building Committee, P. S. Donahe, J. Carter, and A. R. De Puy ; Exhorters, James Wright, J. Il. Thorp; Superintendent of Sabbath-school, P. S. Donahe.

The house was completed and furnished at a cost of $10,427, and on the 6th day of February, 1867, it was opened and dedicated by Rev. J. G. Gulick ; Rev. Dr. Jesse T. Peck preached the first sermon, and the Rev. Dr. Schuy- ler Seager preached in the afternoon.

The trustees elected as incorporators of this church in 1822, and their successors, elected in 1825, both above named, were at the time of' this dedication all living, except Col. John Whiting, and all residents of this county ; although in one ease forty-five years had intervened, and in the other forty-two years, since their election. To commemorate such an event is seldom the privilege of any combination of men. These ex-trustees of over forty years' standing were each specially invited to attend the dedication and be guests of the president of the board of trustees, many of whom were upon the platform participating in the dedicatory exereises, and, together with many of the old church pioneers, sur- rounded the banquet-board of their host to discuss not ouly the substantials in profusion spread before them but to talk over the good old times long-agone. They were among the strong, reliable old men,-the pioneers of progress and well- wishers of Zion. Nor had they that day cause to weep, as did the ancient men who attended the dedication of the second Jewish temple.

Prior to 1835 this church was united with several others, and constituted a circuit supplied with one or more preach- ers, preaching alternately at each appointment. At this time Bath was erected into a station, and has since had a sep- arate pastor.

Among those that have preached here are the following : In 1820, James Lent and Nathan B. Dodson; 1822, Ben- jamin Sabin ; 1824, Renaldo M. Everts ; 1826, - Cum- mings, Henry F. Rowe, and Asa Orcott; 1827, John Arn- old, Levi B. Castle, and Ralph Bennett; 1828, Cyrus Story,

Zina J. Buck, and Menzer Doud; 1830, Samuel Parker and Samuel Bibbins ; 1831, Asahel Hayward and Augustin Anderson ; 1833, Edmund O. Fling, J. Shaw, and John Dennis; 1835 ( Bath as a separate station ), John G. Gulick ; 1836, Chandler Wheeler; 1838, William C. [Tosmer; 1840, Eventus Doud ; 1841, Daniel B. Lawton ; 1842, Philander Powers ; 1844, David Ferris; 1845, Earl B. Fuller ; 1847, S. W. Alden; 1849, Joseph K. Tuttle; 1850, Augustus C. George; 1851, E. G.

Morey; 1868, J. T. Brownell; 1869, Sam'l MeGer- ald; 1872, E. T. Greene; 1874, R. D. Munger ; 1877, George Stratton.

BAPTIST CHURCHI.

On the 16th of March, 1842, a few brethren and sisters of the Baptist faith, living in Bath and surrounding country, met in the Methodist meeting-house, together with an eccle- siastical council, and were recognized as " The Bath Village Baptist Church." The constituent members were twenty- one in number, as follows : Rev. M. Rowley, S. Shattuck, C. Copeland, H. Vosburgh, G. Williams, J. Hedges, J. Pike, II. Holliday, E. Frink, II. Lucas, Mary Robinson, Sarah Woodard, Phoebe Vosburgh, Mary Vosburgh, Mrs. Frink, Mary Ann Smith, Lucy Lucas, Phoebe Cooper, Polly Aber, Mr. Tarney, Wm. Woodard.

The first pastor was Rev. M. Rowley. Ile remained with them from 1842 to 1845; Rev. II. Spencer from 1845 to 1846; Rev. B. F. Balcom from 1847 to 1848; Rev. B. R. Swick from 1848 to 1851; Rev. J. Parker from 1852 to 1853; Rev. E. C. Brown from 1853 to 1855 ; Rev. P. Colegrove from 1855 to 1858; Rev. E. F. Crane from 1859 to 1860; Rev. D. B. Olney from 1860 to 1861; Rev. E. J. Scott from 1861 to 1862; Rev. J. D. Barnes from 1862 to 1864; Rev. E. Savage from 1864 to 1866; Rev. HI. F. Cochrane from 1866 to 1867 ; Rev. J. W. Taylor from 1867 to 1870; Rev. I. W. Emery, the present pastor, settled with the church, Jan. 1, 1871.

The deacons who have served the church have been H. Holliday, P. Smith, H. Miller, A. Butler, S. Chapman, N. J. Clark, E. Mott, R. Davis, A. B. Miner, J. Ncel, L. II. Smith.

The following brethren have served the church as elerks: A. Z. Madison, Wm. Woodard, J. G. Williams, E. Mott, J. Robinson, D. L. Smith, S. Bovier, S. P. Goodsell, L. H. Smith, B. D. Platt.

The house of worship was built in the summer of 1844. It was repaired in 1859 by adding twenty feet to the length and removing the gallery. Quite extensive repairs were again made in the summer of 1870.

Of the fifteen pastors that have served the church ten are now living. Rev. D. B. Olney died while he was pas- tor. His death was a sad loss to the church.

The most extensive revivals were in 1843, 1863, 1869, and 1872.

There have been added by baptism 462. The present membership is 226. The most prosperity has been during the two three-year pastorates and the seven years of the present pastor.

ADDISON F. ELLAS.

The ancestors of the subject of this sketch came from England and settled in America some time previous to the Revolutionary war, as some of them served in that war. Addison F., son of Dr. Simp- son and Phebe Ellas, was born in Ludlow, Mass., Dec. 16, 1811. Both of his parents were natives of Brattleboro', Vt. His father was born July 27, 1784, and his mother March 15, 1788; they were married about 1808, and soon after removed to Ludlow, Mass. In October, 1815, they settled in Bath, N. Y. Dr. Ellas followed his ehosen pro- fession, and, in connection therewith, owned a drug- store during his residence in Bath.

Dr. Ellas was a Whig in politics, and held some offices, such as postmaster and magistrate of Bath. On the 5th of October, 1867, he died, and his wife passed away May 8, 1877.

Addison F. was engaged in the distilling business when young. At the age of twenty he began to work on the farm, and followed it some four or five

years ; he then engaged in mercantile business for a few years, after which he was clerk about five years for his brother George. Then he commenced his chosen occupation, that of farming, purchasing one of the good farms, some two miles from Bath, on the Hammondsport road. It consists of some one hun- dred and seventy-two acres of good, productive land, which he still owns. Mr. Ellas has been a good farmer, and suecess has crowned his efforts. He is an upright and industrious man, never aspiring to any of the political honors of his town. He has, however, held some of the minor positions, but always preferred the quiet of the home to any official honors. In politics he affiliates with the Republican party. He married Miss Jennie C., daughter of James Little, of Bath, Feb. 25, 1869. Miss Little was born in Bath, Aug. 28, 1828, and has always resided here, save some three years spent near Geneva, N. Y. Mr. Ellas is a good citizen, a kind husband, and an honest man.

Munnar Brundere

The subject of this sketch was born in the town of Bath, Oet. 27, 1836. Ilis ancestors on his father's side were from Wales, his moth- er's, English, and were among the carly settlers of this county.

Young Brundage received the usual school training of a country boy, attending sebool during the winter months, and working on the farm in summer. Hle finished his education at Starkey Seminary in t854. He then returned to the practical labors of the farm.

Hle was a boy noted for doing with certainty and completeness the work he had in hand ; as a man, who never knew what fear was.

In the spring of 1861 he promptly responded to the call of the Presideut for volunteers to suppress the war of the Rebellion. llc enlisted on the 22d of April, 1861, at Hammondsport, as a private in what was afterwards Company 1, 34th Regiment, New York Volunteers. W. 11. King went out as captain of the company. It was put into a regiment mainly enlisted in Herkimer County.

Company I left Hammondsport for Albany on the 28th of May. On the 10th of June, Monroe Brundage was elected by unanimous vote of his company second lieutenant.

The regiment was mustered into the United States service on the 15th of June, reported at Washington on the 5th of July, and went into camp at Kalorama Heights. On the 2Ist of October his regiment was engaged skirmishing at Edwards' Ferry, operating on the ene- my's flank, to draw their attention from our forees operating at Ball's Bluff.

The 34th soon went to Camp MeClellan, near Poolsville, where they remained until Feb. 25, 1862, when camp was broken, and the regi- ment was engaged in skirmishing around Berryville, Winchester, and Harper's Ferry. Then Sedgwick's division, to which the 34th be- longed, was ordered to Washington, where it remained until the 24th of March, when it was ordered to Fortress Monroe. They then marched to Yorktown, and entered it on the 5th of May, the rebels having evac- nated the town a few days before. During the month of May the army, under Gen. MeClellan, gradually worked its way towards Rich- mond, and on the 31st of that month the battle of Fair Oaks was fought, in which the 34th was an active participant. Lieutenant Brundage acted as first lieutenant in this engagement. The regiment was honorably mentioned in the official report. Captain King was wounded in this battle, after which Lieutenant Brundage acted as

captain, and remained in command of the company until he was dis- abled at the battle of Antietam.

Among the wounded at the battle of Fair Oaks were Azariah C. Brandage, Solomon Clark, and Jesse Jacobus, the last two fatally. Herbert Kellogg was killed on the field. During the disastrous and memorable seven days' retreat, in June, from Richmond to Harrison's Landing, Captain Brundage, with his company, was ahuost coustantly engaged, participating actively in the battles of Peach Orchard, Sav- age Station, White Oak Swamp, and Malvern Hill. From this time up to the date of the battle of Antietam, the 34th Regiment was en- gaged in the neighborhood of Washington, skirmishing as occasion required.

This celebrated battle was fought on the 17th of September, 1862, and it was in this engagement that the 34th suffered most severely. Captain Brundage, with his company, made three distinct charges, and were thrieo repulsed. While rallying his company for another charge, he was struck by a ball in the right arm, near the shoulder; disabled as he was, he remained in command until the battle was over. On the following day his right arm was amputated near the shoulder, and he returned to his home as soon as able to do so, which was abont the Ist of October.

On the 26th of Jauuary following, having in the mean time received his commission as captain, he resumed command of his company, which he retained until the 16th of March, when he was compelled to leave the service on account of his health. Ile accordingly resigned, being unwilling to retain a position the active duties of which he could not discharge, and receive compensation for services which he was no longer able to perform. lle was a brave soldier, and as truo and generous as he was brave.

Ile was a favorite with his comrades, and those who survive him will ever keep his memory green. His fellow-citizens, who honored him for his many excellent qualities of head and heart, placed him in nomination for the Assembly in the fall of 1868, and elceted him hy a large majority. In this capacity, as in all others, he showed him- self strictly honest and scrupolously faithful.

Captain Brundage had been subject to severe attacks of inflamuma- tory rheumatism, caused by exposure in the army, which resulted in his death on the 26th of May, 1875, lamented by all who knew him.
