The total amount contributed, including cost of church, during Dr. Hull's rectorship was $35,000. Dr. Hull re- signed, and was suceecded by Rev. William Paret, D.D., who, during his brief reetorate of two and one-half years, inaugurated a mission in the Fifth Ward of the city, and a building was erected there at a cost of $3000, but which proved an unprofitable step, and was abandoned.

Rev. George H. McKnight, D.D., succeeded Paret in July, 1869. During the first five years of his reetorate the offerings were $40,781.31, including $3455 for Chicago sufferers by fire in 1871, and an addition to the rectory.

The whole number of baptized has been 196, confirmed 201, added and received to the communion 284; and, while it is not claimed that statistics settle the question of spirit- ual growth, yet they show a prosperous condition.

The Sunday-school numbers about 150, and has con- tributed to missions $1453.48. The diocese was divided in 1869, and the new one was called the Diocese of Central New York, and the Rev. F. D. Huntington, D.D., of Bos- ton, was elected as its bishop.

The present officers of the parish are Rev. George H. McKnight, D.D., Rector; Wardens, Dr. William C. Way and Jesse L. Cooley; Vestrymen, Jackson Richardson, Robert Neilson, E. H. Cook, Eugene Diven, H. W. Rath- bone, G. L. Smith, C. S. Ingraham, and W. D. Kelley.

AND SCHUYLER COUNTIES, NEW YORK.

LAKE STREET PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH.

One hundred and seventeen persons withdrew from the First Presbyterian Church of Elmira, being granted letters by the session of that church, and on the 27th of Decem- ber, 1860, organized the Second Presbyterian Church of Elmira, and received its charter from the State of New York the same year. They held a meeting in a building on the corner of Church Street and Railroad Avenue, formerly Trinity Church edifice, and under the proper forms placed themselves in the care of the Presbytery of Chemung, and, according to the methods of that denomination, extended a call to the Rev, David Murdock to become their pastor.

Negotiations were at once begun for the purchase of a more eligible site for a church, and in the summer following the large lot on the corner of Lake and Church Streets, in Elmira, was bought. In September, 1861, the corner-stone of the present edifice was laid. On the first anniversary of Doctor Murdock's death, to wit, the 13th of June, 1862, the new church was dedicated to the worship of Almighty God.

The members of the church have placed a tablet in the church, with this inscription :

" David Murdock, D.D., born at Bonhill, in Scotland, Oct. 4, 1800. At twenty-nine he graduated at the University of Glasgow ; studied theology in that city with the late Ralph Wardlow, D.D. Having selected America as the country of his adoption, landed in New York in 1832. For several years preached in Canada under the auspices of the London Colonization Society. Espousing the liberal side in the patriot war in 1836, was induced to make his home in the United States. Became pastor of churches in Ballstown and Catskill, N. Y., and subsequently of the First Presby- terian Church in Elmira, and became the founder of this society, and presided at its organization Dec. 27, 1860. An affectionate friend, a devout pastor, and a heroic churchiman. He died lamented, June 13, 1861."

The first trustces were E. L. Hart, Daniel H. Tuthill, Ariel S. Thurston, Lyman Covell, H. M. Partridge, and Robert Covell, Jr.

Feb. 8, 1861, the following ruling elders were elected : Erastus L. Hart, William R. Sheopard, Adam Dewitt, Daniel E. Howell, and George Mabie. This session chose W. R. Sheopard as the first delegate to the Synod at Geneva, Dr. E. L. Hart and Adam Dewitt as first delegates to the Pres- bytery of Chemung, and II. M. Partridge as clerk of the session.

After the death of Dr. Murdock the Rev. William Bc- inent presided over the meetings until Rev. Isaac Clark was ordained and installed pastor, Nov. 12, 1861.

Upon the resignation of Mr. Clark in April, 1868, the meetings of the session were conducted under the direction of the supplies furnished by the committee appointed by the members of the church and congregation to furnish the pulpit with temporary or permanent supply ; the usual services were held with regularity. At the end of one year the church called Rev. N. M. Sherwood, who was elected pastor in April, 1869, and the committee dismissed. Elder Dewitt withdrew, and three new elders were elected, viz. : David H. Tuthill, Dr. T. H. Squire, and Miles Ayrault.

Elder Sheopard succeeded William Partridge as clerk, and William Dundas, Henry W. Strang, Elias B. Satterlee, and A. P. Hart were elected deacons. In January, 1874, A. P. Hart, H. H. Packard, Richard Watts, and E. J. Cowell . were elected elders in addition to the others. Elder Sheo- pard resigned the clerkship, and Dr. Squire was appointed. At the end of six years' faithful service Mr. Sherwood re- signed, and Rev. S. T. Clarke was elected pastor May 16, 1875.

In 1876, the proper steps being taken, the name of the corporation was changed to the " Lake Street Presbyterian Church and Society of Elmira." The present trustees are Ariel S. Thurston, Daniel R. Pratt, William E. Hart, James McCann, Henry M. Partridge, and Alexander Diven. The whole number of members from the organization about 500; present number, 375.

SYNAGOGUE (JEWISH).

This edifice was erected in 1863. The society was or- ganized some years previous, and elected the following per- sons as trustees : Joseph Gladke, Jr., H. Straus, I. Sellner, and S. Sittenfield. At the time the synagogue was erected there were but ten or twelve members belonging to this congregation, but being aided liberally by some of the lead- ing citizens, they succeeded in building a small but sub- stantial frame structure, which was dedicated in December, 1863, by the Rev. S. M. Isaacs, of New York. The name of the congregation is Benai Israel; the ceremonies are conducted in Hebrew and German. There are 30 children attending the Sabbath-school, and 30 members of the con- gregation, and 50 seat-holders. Rev. Jacob Stahl is the rabbi.

Daniel Pratt

DANIEL PRATT was born in Colehester, Conn., March, 1806. His minority was mostly spent at home, where he learned of his father, Daniel Ransom Pratt, the cloth-dressing business, which subsequently became his chief business, and in which he was pecuniarily successful.

At the age of twenty, in connection with his brother Ransom,-who was next younger,-he as- sumed full control of the business previously ear- ried on by his father. The two young men eon- tinued their business for some two years, and in the year 1828 came to the town of Catharine, Schuyler Co., N. Y., where they followed their business.

They spent some three years in Burdett, and the elder Pratt afterwards four years on a farm, while the younger still worked at his trade.

In 1837 they again went into partnership in Havana, established a woolen-mill and carried on business for five years, when, in the year 1842, believing Elmira a better place for their operations, removed to that place, where they at once estab- lished the woolen-mills at the foot of Water-Cure Hill, where their energies were successfully con- eentrated for very many years. They were busi- ness men of the most thorough and enterprising kind, quiek to conceive and rapid in the execution of their plans. They were among the original in- corporators of the Second National Bank of Elmira, and continued to be large stockholders to the time of their deeease, and Daniel Pratt was a director from its organization.

At the time of the deeease of Daniel Pratt, Jan- uary, 1877, he was senior member of the whole-

Ransom Frell

sale hardware house of Pratt & Co. He was a man of great energy of character, having few equals as a sagacious capitalist and business man. He was a consistent Christian, and through life, in public or private relations, honorably met and ful- filled his obligations.

In the year 1828 he married Harriet, daughter of Joseph Carrier, of the town of Marlborough, Conn. She was born in 1806, and survives her husband, together with an only son, Daniel R. Pratt, who is president of the Second National Bank of Elmira.

RANSOM PRATT did much to advance the in- terests and prosperity of the city; was a man of sterling integrity of purpose in all his business relations, and a liberal supporter of all enterprises tending to educate and elevate the rising generation.

Neither he nor his elder brother, whose lives were so blended in one in all their business relations, were active political workers, but unswervingly identified themselves with first the Whig, and sub- sequently the Republican party, preferring the quiet of a business life to the rounds of political strife and any emoluments office might afford. He was a member of the First Presbyterian Church to the time of his decease, April, 1871, being then sixty- three years of age.

In the year 1839 (January 30) he married Sarah, daughter of Otis Alvord, of East Hampton, Coun., she being a granddaughter of Joseph Carrier, pre- viously alluded to.

Their children are Mrs. Gardner Reynolds and Charles R. Pratt, an attorney and counselor at law, of Elmira City.

ON the 3d of June, 1793, a petition was addressed to the Grand Lodge of F. and A. M. of the State of New York, by Amos Park, James Cameron, Nathaniel Secly, Jr., Henry Starret, Peter Loop, Jr., Nathaniel Teal, James Seely, and John Crabtree, praying for a warrant to establish a lodge at Newtown (now Elmira), in the county of Tioga. This petition was presented to the Grand Lodge at its an- nual communication in the city of New York, June 24, 1793, and a warrant was granted on the 28th of the same month, under the name and number of Union Lodge, No. 30, to Amos Park, Master; James Cameron, Senior Warden ; Nathaniel Seely, Jr., Junior Warden ; and was signed by Robert Livingston, Grand Master, Jacob Morton, Senior Grand Warden, James Scott, Junior Grand Warden. The officers named in the warrant, who had formerly becn members of St. John's Lodge, No. 18, at Warwick, Orange Co., were duly installed by Samuel Gardner, William Adams, and Thomas Morrison, at Canandaigua, on the 22d of August following.

The first meeting of the lodge was held at the house of John Konkle, on the 26th of August, 1793, and the fol- lowing officers and brethren were present: Amos Park, Master ; James Cameron, Senior Warden ; Nathaniel Seely, Jr., Junior Warden ; Peter Loop, Jr., Sec. ; John Konkle, Treas .; Nathaniel Teal, Tyler; James Seely, member ; Abiel Fry, visitor. At this meeting the applications of five candidates were received, and subsequently accepted.

William Dunn (father of James, Charles W., and Thomas Dunn) was the first person initiated into Masonry in Union Lodge, No. 30.

The lodge continued to meet regularly until some time in 1828, when, owing to the great excitement in the community, growing out of the so-called " Morgan affair," it ceased to meet or work.

The following brethren were clected Masters in December

of each year from 1794 until 1827, and served until the expiration of their terms of office, with a single exception : Amos Park, 1794, '98, 1806; Dr. Joseph Hinchman, 1795-97; John Konkle, 1799-1800; John Miller, 1801-5; Caleb Baker, 1807-10; Samuel Hendy, 1811; Samuel Tuthill, 1812, '15, '21, '25; Solomon L. Smith, 1813; Dr. Elias Satterlee,* 1814; John Cherry, 1816; George Guest, 1817-18; John Fitzsimmons, 1819; Orange Chapman, 1820; Daniel E. Brown, 1822-23; Isaac Roe, 1824; Wyatt Car,; 1826; and Albert A. Beckwith, 1827.

The number of persons initiated and affiliated in the lodge from its organization until 1828 was 236. Among the members of the lodge were numbered many of the most prominent and influential citizens of Tioga and the adjoining counties, some of whom were noted for valuable public services in civil and military life. Among them were Dr. Joseph Hinchman, Elijah Hinman, Dr. Lemuel Hudson, Hon. Vincent Mathews, Judge John Miller, Hon. Thomas Maxwell, Hon. Aaron Konkle, David McCormick, William B. Rochester (noted as a candidate for Governor against De Witt Clinton, in 1826), Samuel Tuthill, Hon. Caleb Baker, Judge Darius Bentley, Dr. Rulandus Bancroft, Hon. Grant Baldwin, Hon. John W. Wisner, William Williams, Eleazer Dana, Hon. Isaac Baldwin, and General John H. Knapp.

Of the entire membership of Union Lodge, No. 30, only six are now living,-Rev. Christian Greatsinger, Charles W. Dunn, Vincent Conkling, Darius Bentley, Samuel Boyer, and John C. Roc.

The lodge for several years previous to 1822 held its meetings in the " old log court-house," and on or after the erection of the new court-house removed to the village, and at the time of the suspension of the lodge work occupied the old " Masonic Hall," on the south side of Water Street, a short distance east of Baldwin Street.

The warrant of Union Lodge, No. 30, was declared "for- feited" by the Grand Lodge in 1853.

The original book of records, jewels, and aprons belonging to the lodge were safely kept by Brother Isaac Roe, and the original warrant was surrendered to the Grand Lodge by Brother Albert A. Beckwith.

Oct. 9, 1843, on application for a new warrant, Union Lodge, No. 95, was instituted by dispensation, issued by the Grand Master 'o Benajah B. Payne,¿ M., Isaac Rey- nolds, S. W., Elijah Jones, J. W., and twenty-five other petitioners. The first meeting was held Oct. 25, 1843, with eighteen brethren in attendance, fifteen of those
