. Public worship was held for the first time on the 9th February, 1851, about seventy persons being present. From that time it was regularly continued, morning and evening, together with a weekly lecture.
Rev. Aaron Lloyd was invited to assume the vacant charge, and began his labors in March as a Missionary of the Society. On the 24th of Sep- tember, a committee of the Classis of New York met by appointment and organized a church of eleven members. They also superintended the
.
42
election of a Consistory, Hugh Gibson and Charles H. Amerman being the Elders, and Cornelius T. Williamson and Cornelius N. Churchwell being the Deacons. This Consistory was ordained on Sabbath evening, October 12th, an extremely unfavorable evening, but with an attendance of about one hundred persons.
The next step was the calling of a Pastor. Rev. Mr. Lloyd received a formal call, which was approved by Classis, and on the 9th of November. Sabbath evening, he was duly installed. The hall was filled on this occa- sion.
The first communion of the infant church was celebrated on the first Lord's Day of December, and was naturally an occasion of great interest. One new member was received upon confession of her faith, and one by certificate.
A prayer-meeting and monthly concert were established upon the organization of the church. The Sunday School continued to be main- tained with "tolerable success" (to use the language of the Pastor in his first report to the City Missionary Society.) He also reports at that time a church of twenty members.
The Collegiate Church announced its intention of building a fine edifice on the corner of 29th Street and 5th Avenue. Upon this warning the little band, like wise men, moved to the westward and sought their Bethlehem under the hospitable roof of the Institute for the Blind. They began the services in that place on the Ist of May, 1852, and continued to worship there for the greater part of the year. While there, the congregations, in- cluding the members of the Institution, averaged about 250. The num- ber of church-members increased to 35. The number of families reported at the close of the year was 33.
Articles of incorporation were taken out during the year, and recorded in the Register's office of the city of New York on the 16th of October, 1852, at fifty minutes past two P. M. The style and title of " The Living- ston Reformed Protestant Dutch Church of the city of New York" was ne- cessitated, partly by their long want of a "local habitation," and consequent- ly the impossibility of their truthfully appropriating to themselves a local name. It was also designed to do honor to the illustrious Prof. John H. Livingston, who was the George Washington of the Dutch Church in this country, having given it its moulding touches, and having saved, under
.

God, its very existence. This innovation upon old precedents was the subject of much animadversion, (one very prominent and liberal friend of the Denomination having made a change of title the condition of his aid.) It is difficult, however, to see why, if we may name churches after men at all, St. John Livingston is not as good as any other.
At the beginning of the year 1853, the little Zion again made an hegira westward. They leased a lot in the 9th Avenue, near 33d Street, for two years, and erected upon it a small chapel at an expense of $500. On the 22d of May, the City Missionary Society recognized and honored the Pastor by selecting him to preach the annual sermon before them in the Collegiate Church on Lafayette Place.
Toward the close of 1853 Mr. Lloyd retired from the Pastorate, leaving a vacancy for nearly a twelvemonth. During this interval, the pulpit was mainly supplied by the pastors of the then flourishing but now defunct Greenwich Church, Rev. Drs. Marselus and Van Arsdale. Every effort was made in the meanwhile to obtain a pastor. Rev. Dr. Van Arsdale and Rev. Henry G. Livingston, two of the most popular preachers in the denomination, were on the point of accepting the church's overtures, but, from outside influences brought to bear upon them, were induced reluctantly to decline. *
Their negotations resulted at length in the settlement, as pastor, of Rev. E. R. McGregor, at that time Secretary of the "American Society for . ameliorating the condition of the Jews." He was installed in November, 1854. In January 1856 the pastoral relation was dissolved.
By that time the church was literally " ready to perish." It had, in fact, sunken down into a state of such chronic invalidism, and had come to be regarded by the people of this part of the city as such an unfortunate and hopeless affair, that it would have been an easier and more promising task to have effaced the past and begun to build again from the foundation.
The speaker, then a recent graduate of the Theological Seminary and a resident of this city, began to supply the pulpit in March, and on the 15th of March was ordained to the ministry, and installed as the third pastor of the church. His first sermon was preached in a place called Continental Hall, a place of dim but not religious aspect. This, how- ever, had not been the only "remove" of this "tribe of the wandering foot and weary breast" since the one last recorded, they having worshiped
44
for a whole year in a building near the 9th Avenue, in 29th Street. It is not to be wondered at that such a " rolling stone" had gathered but little moss. During the whole history of the church up to this time, there had been but ten persons received on confession of their faith. And the other additions had been so few, that the membership was scarcely greater at the end of the fifth year than it was at the close of the first. It is due to the Collegiate Consistory to say, that an offer had been made to aid them in obtaining a church edifice, but coupled with conditions and limitations, which in the state of the church result- ed in its forfeiture, and it was never renewed.
The new pastor was ordained in their new and final place of worship, which they had fitted up for themselves on the corner of 33d Street and 8th Avenue. The sermon on that occasion was preached by Rev. Dr. Chambers, from the text "There shall be a handful of corn on the earth in the top of the mountains, the fruit thereof shall shake like Leb- anon." In the movement and fragrance of this jubilee occasion, as of a cedar forest stirred by a mountain wind, we have, I think, the fulfil- ment of these words. *
I did not enter upon this charge with any expectation, or desire, to add simply another Dutch Church, (or any church at all of the regula- tion pattern), to those already existing in this city. But I had entered the ministry with my heart on fire with love and zeal for the masses who were not reached by existing organizations. And I accepted this as an opening and opportunity, given me by Providence for laboring in my native city without respect of persons. The one idea of my three years' ministry was to gather and feed a flock, among whom there should be no such thing known as a taxation of the Gospel in the shape of assessed pews, and no precedence shown to the "gold ring" over the " vile raiment ;" in other words a church governed by the principles of the " kingdom" and not the maxims and customs of the world. To this idea and purpose my people gave their hearty adhesion, and, more than all, their faithful and practical co-operation. For three blessed years, (years that I look back upon as the most toilsome and yet the most sweet and elevated in my entire ministry), we pursued our humble mis- sion. I never expect again to see a church so thoroughly united or so thoroughly organized, or (according to their ability) so successful in
-----
45
the work of the Lord. I never expect to see a church so love one another. I never expect to be so loved myself, or so to give my heart as to this my first love.
And it was a success, in our eyes (and we verily believe in God's). It was a success, because we perfectly carried out our design for three years, and, when the minister's strength was spent, we were able to garner and preserve the fruits of our toil in your ampler store-house. Let me tell what some of those toils and some of those fruits were : We gathered a congregation of seventy-five families. We had a church full of people at our Sabbath services, (for it was a church, just as much as if it had had all the pinnacles and turrets and arches and pillars of a cathedral). We had a " live" Sunday School of two hundred scholars, the best feature of which was, that half of them would probably have received no religious instruction but for us. We had living and loving meetings too, throughout the week. God gave us an almost continual re- vival and awakening. We received a goodly number into our fellowship, some of them souls for whom no man had seemed to care. I could add to the records of the Lord's dealings with those whom he calls, many interesting facts from the experiences of those who were born there. We districted the part of the city in which our lot was cast, giving every one who was able and willing a field of spiritual labor, where he might exert himself for the unevangelized, by systematic visitation, by neighborhood meetings, by the distribution of religious reading, and by persuading them to attend the Sabbath School instruction and the preaching of the Gospel. We had a Ladies' Benevolent Society which co-operated in this work. We trained out of humble and in many instances new materials, working Christians. So that, when they were merged with the Broome Street Church, they furnished to the joint- stock enterprise the entire building committee, the Superintendent of the Sunday School, the teacher of the infant department, the Sexton, nearly if not quite half the Consistory, and a good proportion of the other working material of the new organization. One of the most use- ful young ministers of the Reformed Church, settled over one of its oldest and largest congregations, traces back the influences, which have made him what by the grace of God he is, largely to the teach- ings and the early impressions imparted in the Livingston Church.

But I forbear, partly because I must not transgress the limits of this occasion, and partly because I could not reproduce those days nor measure that work. They are in the keeping of a faithful and unfor- getting God, their good and their evil, their mistakes and their suc- cesses. And that day, which shall try every man's and every church's work, will burn away the " wood, hay and stubble," that the "gold and silver and precious stones" may shine out unobscured in the king- dom of our Father.
Some of these faces that I see around me to-day, call up by vivid and tender association those sweet and solemn years. I stand again in the long, low-ceilinged room. On the pulpit before me is the Bible and hymn-book which my mother, who so loved the Livingston Church for my sake and the Master's, presented. Off in the corner on my left is the choir with their little organ, led by Mr. Camerden, whom I love and honor for his long and noble fidelity to that poor little church, and who, having been for years a sort of connecting link between the two churches, was at length rewarded by being the instrument under God of uniting (and thus perhaps saving) the Livingston and the Broome Street Churches into this 34th Street Church, second in its usefulness, and therefore in importance, to no other Reformed Church on this island. Over in another corner on my right is the Prayer-meeting and Consistory room, which we had partitioned off for our convenience. On the ranged seats before me are sitting once more those familiar forms, so many of which have been laid away for the Resurrection. Shall I speak of Elders Rogers and Van Voorhies, both now entered into rest ? Or, of Deacon Stager, still lingering in his enfeebled health among you ? Or, of dear little Miss Browning, one of Christ's most humble and faithful ones? Or of our quiet little friend and organist, Geo. F. Babb? (But I dare not go on to name more, lest I be betrayed into naming all). And there again are the poor young people from the Institute for the Blind, (not so poor either, for some of them were rich and happy in the knowledge and the love of Christ.)
And the dear children ! how their faces bloom upon me out of that long-deserted place. What grand times we used to have toge- ther, little folks, (now fathers and mothers of little folks yourselves),
47
in that dear old room ! How I remember my Bible class, that used to meet me twice every Sunday. I have the yellow pass-book yet, in which I kept your names and attendance, and gave you black or white marks. Do you ever think of your old pastor and teacher, and the words he taught you? I know you do, for was not almost every member of that class brought to Jesus in those days, or since ? And those humble teachings and those quiet hours, have they not helped you all to live better, truer, nobler lives? I do believe they have, because they have so greatly helped me to live and love and labor for Jesus only, and to labor and to wait.
And now I believe we all are ready to say, God bless the Living- ston Church ! And God bless the Broome Street Church, which was drawn by a true and holy affinity to wed this lowly Ruth, whom it found gleaning in these fields, and so make of twain this one large, happy, busy household, whose name we jubilantly utter as our closing word, saying
God bless to-day and evermore the 34th Street Church !

EXTRACTS FROM A HISTORY OF THE SABBATH SCHOOLS.
BY REV. PETER STRYKER, D.D.
Text, John 21: 15. Feed My Lambs.
It is my pleasant task to present to you some facts and reminis- cences of Sabbath School labor in Broome Street and 34th Street.
There springs before me now, as if by magic, the man who may, in truth, be called "the Father" of the Broome Street Sabbath School, William Woram. I see him as he appeared when I first met him, and felt the earnest grasp of his hand. A small, round-faced, happy look- ing man, he had then passed his three score and ten years, and with his broad, English accent, he always addressed me as his Domine.
This good brother was first a member of the Presbyterian Church in Vandewater Street, and Superintendent of the Sunday School con- nected with that Church. Early in the year 1824, he transferred his relations to the Broome Street Reformed Dutch Church, just after the dedication of the new church edifice. At once he entered the Sab- bath School as Superintendent, and for a period of 21 years held the office, performing its laborious duties with great zeal and success. He was just the man for the position. With a face always radiant with smiles, and a mouth ever ready to speak cheerful words, he was a favorite with both the old and young.
No sacrifice did he regard too great to make in its behalf. Storms did not keep him from his post. Sickness, unless it was very serious, did not keep him home. So much importance did he attach to his Sabbath School duties, that one Sabbath, with a heart all torn with grief, he left a beloved child lying in his coffin, and went to lead the children in the singing at their anniversary.
When, admonished by age and infirmity, he withdrew from the po-
49
sition of Superintendent, he still retained a lively interest in the school ; and, when able to visit the sanctuary, was sure to come in time to look in upon the teachers and scholars.
On the morning of the last Sabbath in the year 1856, when the school held its 33d anniversary, the old patriarch stood on the plat. form for the last time. *
The new-year Sabbath came, but good old father Woram did not appear in his accustomed place in the sanctuary. Peacefully he had passed from us and entered into eternal rest.
From the eighth annual report of the New York Sunday School Union, issued in May, 1824 we learn that school No. 53 on their list, was attached to the Reformed Dutch Church in Broome Street, and that it had one Superintendent, four teachers and thirty-three scholars. It is also stated "This school was organized in October last." This is a very important record, as it shows the school is really older than the Church, having been organized some two months sooner. Yet we must remember the Church had existed for a year or so previous in its embryo state as a mission enterprise. The school seems at first to have been under the supervision of James Seguine, who was a city missionary or lay preacher ; and probably was held in the hall, on the corner of Howard and Elm Streets, where the congregation first worshiped.
Early in the year 1824 the school was held in the basement int'of the Church, lately finished, and Mr. Woram seems to have been the first regular Superintendent. This school was composed exclusively of boys.
Very shortly after this a school for girls was started, occupying a separate room in the basement of the Church, and was under the efficient superintendence of Miss Charlotte Childs, afterward Mrs. Noah T. Pike. The boys' school, was under the care of the New York Sunday School Union, and was known as school 53. The girl's school was under the Sabbath School Board of the Reformed Church, then a voluntary association. At the time the General Synod estab- ished its own Board, the female school united with it, and appeared on the register of the Board as school No. 4.
In the year 1839 Miss Childs resigned her position as Superintend-
4
50
ent, and Mr. Bauman Lowe was induced by a unanimous vote and urgent request to take the position.
Early in the year 1846, on the resignation of Mr. Woram, Mr. Lowe was persuaded to take the Superintendency of the boys' school and join it to the girls' school, over which he had efficiently presided for several years. Thus the dual arrangement, which had existed for over a score of years, terminated, and the united school, connected with the General Synod's Sabbath School Board, was known as school No. 4.
Two sessions were held each Sabbath day. Previous to the morn- ing session there was a Teachers' Prayer Meeting. The Pastors and teachers taught the catechism with proof texts ; and once a month, on Sabbath evenings, both schools assembled for a public recitation and to listen to addresses. These meetings were well at- tended by the congregation. generally, as they were also by the teach- ers and scholars.
Mr. Lowe, leaving the city in the autumn of 1846, was succeeded in the Superintendency by Mr. Louis J. Belloni, and he in turn, by Mr. John Woolsey. Both these good men have gone to their blessed reward.
Next in the line of Superintendents, was Mr. James V. Freeman, who for six years held the position efficiently and acceptably. He died in London. whither he had gone in search of health, early in the year 1862.
Mr. Freeman was followed in the office of Superintendent by Mr. A. C. Stryker, who held the position until the Church and School moved from the old locality.
Although the two departments after :839 were joined in one school, the girls continued to occupy a separate room, and were under the especial supervision of Miss Eliza E. Trenor, who held the office of Assistant Superintendent until the removal in 1860.
Who of the. old members does not remember the old sanctuary ?
The old Church audience room was plain, but commodious and tasty in its appearance. It contained 136 pews on the lower floor and 60 in the gallery. Opposite the pulpit and over the end gallery was a second gallery. This was erected in Dr. Brodhead's time for
51
the accommodation of the children of the Sabbath School. The house was at that time crowded to its utmost capacity, and hence that the children, whose parents had not pews. should have a place in the sanctuary, this provision was made. This fact is worthy of especial note, as showing the interest manifested by the congrega- tion at that time in what might be called the mission work of the school.
Descending to the basement we find first, the lecture-room in which the boys are arranged in classes. The desk is at the south end of the building. Let us imagine ourselves standing in this desk. At our right is a small room in which the infant class are gathered. This is taught very efficiently by Miss Janet Marshall. Next to this, on the Broadway side of the house, is the library room, under the care of Mr. A. C. Poe and others. Back of the lecture-room, on the right, are the apartments of our exeellent sexton, Mr. J. D. Yates. To the left, in front of the desk, and opening into the lec. ture-room by large folding doors, is the girls' room. In the corner of this room, next to these folding doors, is a square space with seats around it. This is occupied by the Young Ladies' Bible Class, under the care of that friend whose name is interwoven in the early history of this Church, Mr. Leonard W. Kip. For twelve years he taught this class, and then resigned only on account of bodily infirmity.
How vividly memory brings before us those walls and seats. and the people who once set there ! 1 dare not venture to speak the names even of many others dear to me as fellow-laborers in that well- remembered field. There were earnest men and women enlisted in this work previous to the removal. Many of them walked long dis- tances to labor for Christ in a locality where missionary work was greatly needed.
Mention, however, must be made of two humble men, who in the prime of life went home to glory, Myron K. Moore and Archibald Wight. These earnest Christians said they did not feel qualified to be teachers. Bat they had a disposition to work. So each Sabbath morning, an hour before the Sabbath School commenced, at the early hour of 8 o'clock, they started out to visit the tenement houses. and invited the children to come to Sabbath School. 3 They were
-
-
52
persistent, good-natured men, who would not take "No" for an an- swer. If the parents said the children had not fit clothing, they saw this was provided. If the excuse for not sending the children was "the morning is short and we have not time to get them ready," these determined men said "we will help you." And in several cases they actually assisted in dressing the children for Sab- bath School. The result was the school filled up rapidly and kept full. When any of the scholars, and especially these mission schol- ars, were absent, Mr. Moore or Mr. Wright was sure to go after them.
In the year 1833 " the Cent Missionary Society of the Sabbath School" was organized. The object of this Society was to promote the cause of domestic missions. The children belonging to the Sab- bath School contributing one cent a week, and any member of the congregation contributing twelve and a half cents a month, were con- sidered members of this Society, and any person by the payment of five dollars, became a life member.
This Society was conducted with energy, and by it the sum of $300 or more annually was raised, which was appropriated to the support of Rev. Mr. Michels, of Grand Rapids, or to the mission at the Thousand Isles.
In the annual report of the New York Sunday School Union for 1833 it is stated that two young men were studying for the ministry, and seven had been thus engaged since the organization of the School. There were several later than this who commenced study and com- pleted their course. It is a source of regret that the old records upon this point are not complete. Rev. Wm. R. Gordon, D.D., of Schraal- enburgh, N. J .; Rev. Isaac P. Stryker, who went out as a missionary to Borneo, but who died before he commenced his work ; Rev. Harvey D. Ganse, Pastor of the Madison Avenue Reformed Church : Rev. Benjamin C. Lippincott. Pastor of the Walkill Valley Reformed Church, N. V. . Rev. Leonard W. Kip, missionary at Amoy. China. These are among the number of Broome Street Sabbath School boys who have entered the ministry. To this may be added the name of Wm. H. Maverick, who, since leaving the Broome Street
5.3
Sunday School has been laboring in the ministry of the Baptist Church.
With sorrow, also, we record the fact that a lad, a son of one of the old members, some twenty years ago, captivated by the artistic music, first attended service and then joined the communion of the Roman Catholic Church, and for several years laborel as a missionary in Minnesota.
Besides the Church Sabbath School, there were several mission schools in which the Broome Street members were interested. From the records of the Consistory it appears that September 14, 1840, Mr. Louis J. Belloni, at that time Superintendent of a " Free Sabbath School" at No. 66 Grand Street, had permission to bring his school on some special occasion to the church. This school is said still to be in existence. A Sabbath School was also commenced, and for a year or two conducted by Mr. Daniel B. Van Houten and others in Green. wich Street.
In March, 1830, we find a report of $72.83, and 12 pairs of shoes, given in a collection taken up for the schools of the church after a discourse by Rev. Dr. Brownlee.
But we must bid good bye to the old house, where for a period of over 36 years we and the fathers worshiped God and served Him, too, and turn our minds to the new camping ground.
In connection with the Livingston Church we found a most inter- esting and flourishing Sabbath School. And, while it is pleasant to recognize among the present corps of teachers a few of the old Broome Street stock, we rejoice to see quite a number of the carnest Living- ston band.
The union was productive of new life to the school. Mr. A. W. Overbaugh was elected the first Superintendent in May 1865. He was followed by Mr. Wm. P. Halsted in June, 1863. Mr. C. C. Overton succeeded in April, 1865. Dr. Wm. Carr was elected to the office in January. 1866. and occupied the position for over five years. Upon his resignation in March. 1871, Mr. Edward .A. Overton was chosen, and upon his leaving the city two months later-May, 1871-Mr. Edward P. Pitcher, the present incumbent, was called to the post.
:
54
These faithful men are all living to join us to-day in this holy jubilee.
In reviewing the last 13 years we can only advert to the library and the excellent manner in which it has been managed by Mr. Thomas Camerden, Mr. Frank Conover, and others. Mention must be made of the colored class under the care of that warm-hearted Christian woman, Miss Ellen Browning. In this class was for several years an aged pupil, Jennie we called her, over 70 years old, who in her child- like simplicity used to stand up with the other young pupils and recite Brown's Catechism every month to the pastor. The venerable scholar and her teacher are now no doubt united in glory.
The Young Men's Bible Class was for awhile well sustained under the tuition of Mr. Garret Van Nostrand and others. The Young Ladies' Bible Class was for seven years under the charge of Mrs. C. H. Stryker, and during that period there were $3 different persons connected with it. Many of these became church members, and not a few Sabbath School teachers. In 1868 Miss E. Hannaway became the teacher, and still fills the position. This class has contributed every year for the last eight years the sum of Stro in gold for the support of three girls in the Protestant Mission in Monterey, Mexico.
We must not pass by the infant classes without a brief notice. One of these, called "The Lambs of the Flock," taught by Miss Augusta Van Tine, contained some 30 or 40 scholars, and after a short time was transferred with the teacher to the Mission School in 29th Street.
The other infant class, called by way of distinction "Lambs of Jesus," is now in its 17th year. The teacher, Miss Martha J. Knight. has had charge of it all that time, and during this long period, has been absent only four Sabbaths, once from personal sickness, and three times in consequence of death in her family. This class is part of the precious material which came to the Broome Street Reformed Church-now the 34th Street Church, in connection with the Livingston enterprise. I cannot do better than quote the words of Miss Knight in a letter recently sent to me. She says : " Sixteen years ago. November 20, 1857, I first formed the class called " Lambs of Jesus." On the previous Sabbath I had called. merely to wait for the services of the sanctuary, but the faithful Superintendent welcomed me to the school, and invited me
-
--
55
to teach. I inquired for the infant class and learned that none had been formed, but was urged to gather in the little ones, and assured that room would be given us. During the week I found three little girls who did not attend any Sabbath School, I persuaded them to go, and this was the beginning of a class which has numbered 253 on the register at one time. There have been about 2,000 children in this class. There are now on the register the names of 100. Many of the children who have been connected with the class are now in the other parts of the school, several in the Bible class. Two have be- come teachers. I know of 30 who have given their hearts to Jesus. Three united with the Church before leaving the class." * *
This Church and Sabbath School have not been lacking in patriot- ism. In the dark days of our Republic there were many who heard the country's call and nobly responded. Among them was one, a young and devoted Christian and an earnest Sabbath School teacher. who laid his life upon the altar, and perished in the defence, Captain Thos. Quirk, and when he resigned his position as teacher to go to the war, it was unanimously voted to keep his name on the roll, and there it remained until he was dismissed by death.
