tor of St. Raphael's Church, Suspension Bridge. The choir for the occasion came from Buffalo. The first child baptized in the church was Adelia Shanley, by Rev. Edward O'Connor. The stone used in build- ing the church was taken from the Kearney quarry and Matthew Welsh was principal mason. Rev. Fr. O'Connor purchased six acres of land at $50 per acre, on the gravel road, from Austin O'Malley, for a cem- etery. About $100 was paid for right of way in the burying ground, and Dennis Bradley donated $37.50 to pay a mortgage on the same. It has been enlarged and beautified by the present pastor. Fr. O'Con- nor attended to the spiritnal wants of the people at Middleport, Gas- port, Somerset, Holley and Albion, and built the church at the latter place. He organized the first Catholic school and the first teacher was Mr. Quinn. Thomas Hynes, John Ryan, and from 1855 to 1857 Miss Kate Maloney also taught. In 1855 a melodeon was bought. Professor Werner, of Buffalo, was first organist. His brother Anthony was or- ganist of the cathedral at Boston and also compiled a music book called the Memorare. In 1857 he was succeeded by Miss Maria Cooper un- til 1864, when Miss Helen Pike, now Mrs. Seneca Baker, took charge of the choir. Miss Margaret Mehan, from Seneca Falls, played the organ a short time. January, 1855, to June, 1859, Rev. Nicholas Byrnes, the dignified and warm hearted pastor, took charge. He was followed by Rev. Thomas McGuire, who remained about six months. Rev. Thomas Brady was pastor from 1859 to 1860. He went to Grand Rapids, Michigan, and afterward became chaplain in the army. His nephew, John Brady, was a physician here. In the win- ter of 1858 Sisters Angela Mckay and Bridget, of the Bridgetine order, and a young lady, Miss Magin, came to teach school under the supervision of Fr. Byrne. The gentlemen who acted as trustees at different periods from 1851 to 1860 were Thomas Owens, Dennis Brad- ley, Peter Shanley, John Rodgers and James O'Brien.


In 1860 Rev. John O'Mara came here and left for Lockport in 1867. He remained there about two years and then took charge of the Im- maculate Conception Church, Buffalo. From there he went to Owego, where he died in 1884. Fr. O'Mara was very generous. The poor and helpless found a friend in him, and the words of scripture, " And if a man take away thy coat, let go thy cloak also unto him," were car-

ried out to the letter by him. The first trustees were appointed by Bishop Timon, and they were: Dennis Bradley, Patrick Horan and John Rodgers. They served three years and were re-elected by the people for another year. In 1863 the transept of the church was built by Fr. O'Mara, and Patrick O'Grady was the architect. Among the workmen were Martin Hickey, James Casey, Cornelius Hoy, Michael Kearney and Joseph Doyle, of Albion. The altar was consecrated by Bishop Timon the first Sunday in Advent, 1864.


About the year 1866 a pipe organ was purchased at a cost of $750. The organists at this time and to 1873 were Misses Anna Summers and Kate Hays, of Lockport, and Mr. Walters, a fine musician, of Buffalo, The teachers were Mrs. Smith and Miss Anastasia Finegan, of Buffalo. Miss Margaret Hanlon taught school and also had charge of the Sun- day-school for eleven years.


Joseph O'Connor, a graduate of Rochester University, now the ed- itor of the Post Express, taught for a few months in 1863. Thomas J. Neville, of Rochester, who for eight years did reportorial and ed . itorial work on the Democrat and is now clerk of the Executive Board, taught from 1863 to 1866. Rev. Martin McDonnell became pastor July 12, 1867, and left for Buffalo August 29, 1873. In 1872 he bought the property of Mark Chase, corner of West and Eagle streets. The price was $3,500. It became the convent of a branch of the Grey Nuns of Buffalo. They established an academy for young ladies, and also had charge of the parochial school for some years. In the academy the advanced English course was taught, beside French, mu- sic, painting, crayon work and needlework, The superiors were Sis- ters Shanley, Theresa and Mary St. Patrick. The sisters were here until 1884. The Misses Ellen Sullivan and Cecilia Dwyer, of Roches- ter, Miss Cummings, of Elmira, Miss Anna Kelly, Mr. Manning, Mr. Condon and Mr. Case were teachers during Fr. McDonnell's time pre- vious to the coming of the Sisters. Miss Cecelia Dwyer and Mr. Smith, of Lockport, were organists for a short time. From January, 1872 to 1873, John Slack and Owen Boyland were trustees. In 1872 two fine sanctuary windows were given by Patrick Horan. In the same year two beautiful statutes one of the Blessed Virgin and the other of St. Joseph, were bought in Munich, Germany, and placed in the church by

Fr. McDonnell. He also organized a temperance society which lasted three years. The good effects of this work were very soon seen. Fr. McDonnell resides in Iona, Minn. He has established the Home of the Sacred Heart for boys, and has compiled two volumes called " The Echo," published for the home. Rev. William J. McNab took charge of the parish August 29, 1873. In 1875 he was assisted by Rev. Thomas Carragher for a few months. Rev. Patrick O'Meara was assistant about one year. Rev. John Fitzpatrick was here from September, 1876, to April, 1877. Rev. John O'Reilly came April, 1877, and re- mained until December of the same year. Rev. Dennis Daly came September, 1884, and left for Buffalo in 1885.


In 1873 and for a few years after, at different times, the Misses Mar- garet Sennett, Mary O'Brien and Alice O'Hara, William Kirby and Frank Gallagher were teachers in the parochial school. From Decem- ber 7, 1873 to 1883 Catherine Hanlon was organist. She also held the same position a year and nine months in Fr. Donnell's time. She was succeeded by Miss Margaret Ryan until 1886, when Miss Margaret O'Brien, the present organist, took charge of the choir. Among the many singers of St. Mary's choir, who have very excellent voices, are the Misses Mary Hanlon, Ellen Murphy, Anna Slack, Josephine Sut- ter, Carrie Sutter, Catherine Gallagher, Kate Sutter, Sarah Smith, Joseph Maher, Thomas Smith, William Cooper, Joseph Kearney, Ed- ward Hanlon and James Hourigan. From the fall of 1885 to 1892 the Misses Elizabeth Conley, Ellen Gribben, Margaret Leahey, Emma Griffin and Hannah Toughey, also Edward O'Malley, were the teachers.


An Altar Society was formed January, 1874. A society of the Chil- dren of Mary organized January 25 of the same year. It was composed of a large number of young ladies. From 1873 to 1877 Fr. McNab attended Middleport. He purchased the Presbyterian Church at Mid- dleport March, 1875, at a cost of $1,750, and it was dedicated in the summer of the same year by Rt. Rev. Bp. Ryan. Rev. W. J. McNab celebrated mass at the dedication. In the sanctuary were Rev. Patrick Cannon, Rev. Matthew Darcy, Rev. Thomas Brougham and Rev. J. A. Lanigan.

A new main altar was donated by James Kennedy in 1889, and Miss Bridget Kelly, of Buffalo, gave beautiful statues of the Sacred Heart, St. Patrick and Adoring Angels. A handsome residence was built by Rev. W. J. McNab in the spring of 1887. It is surrounded by a spacious lawn and well laid walks, while pretty white birch and moun- tain ash trees gave the home a picturesque appearance. Rt. Rev. Bp. Ryan visited Medina for the first time in 1869. He was accompanied by Fr. McNabb, then his secretary. He was met at the station by a large concourse of people. The following day he confirmed a class of children.


During Rev. Fr. McNab's pastorate a great many of the clergy have assisted him on several occasions. We will mention Rev. Fr. Conway and Rev. Fr. Osterrath of Canisius College, Buffalo ; Rev. Fr. Rice, one of the founders of the Mutual Benefit Association (who died in Europe and was buried at the Seminary of Angels on the bank of Niagara River) ; Rev. Francis Sullivan, of Perry; Rev.

Michael Pyne, of Elmira ; and Rev. John Castaldi, the zealous pastor of Albion. Rt. Rev. Bp. Ryan gave a fine lecture on " Christian Edu - cation" in 1876. Rev. Patrick Cronan, the brilliant editor of the Catho- lic Union and Times, also gave a lecture on the Blessed Virgin in 1878. Rev. Fr. Koop also assisted us. He was an eloquent speaker, a fine theologian, and one of the best critics on mental philosophy. He went West where he afterward died. We have had several excellent and fruitful

missions given by Rev. Fr. Shaw in 1874, Rev. Frs. Turner and O'Neil in 1886, Rev. Fr. Dunphy in August, 1878, Rev. Fr. Riordan in No- vember, 1881, and Rev. Frs. Kreidt and Best, of Falls View, Septem- ber 20, 1891.


Rev. Fr. McNab, the beloved and very charitable pastor of St. Mary's, who had labored faithfully for nineteen years, celebrated the twenty - fifth anniversary of his ordination to the priesthood on January 20, 1892. The occasion was welcomed by clergy and people. Fr. McNab was born in New York city, and graduated at the college of St. Francis Xavier. He studied theology at the Seminary in Montreal, Can., and also at the college of Our Lady of Angels at Niagara Falls. He was ordained by Bishop Wood, of Philadelphia. He was one of the first members of the C. M. B. A., and is now one of the five members of the State Board of Grand Trustees.


The congregation of St. Mary's numbers about 1,400, and the Sun- day school 300. The tie which has bound pastor and people for these many years has been strong. We only hope that it may not be broken until we all meet in that beautiful city not made with hands.


During Fr. McNab's administration the following young men of parish have been ordained to the priesthood : Rev. James McNally, now of Elkton, S. Dak .; Rev. Jeremiah McGrath, now at Buffalo, N. Y .; Rev. James Hennelly, now at Chicago, Ill. ; Rev. Michael J. Pyne, now of Elmira, N. Y .; Rev. David J. Ryan, now at Niagara Falls, and Rev. Edwin Morgan, at Erie, Pa.


The following young ladies of the parish have become members of the following religious bodies : Miss Elizabeth Flannigan, of the Sisters of St. Joseph ; Miss Mary O'Brien, of the Grey Nuns ; and Miss Anna Peel, of the Dominican Sisters. 1


Evangelical Lutheran Trinity Church (U. A. C.) of Medina .- In May, 1885, the first German Lutheran service was held in Loke's Hall, on Shelby street, Medina, by Rev. A. T. Hanser of Lockport, and a society of Evangelical Lutherans was formed. The constituent members were F. Boots, C. Lindke, H. Lindke, H. Ewald, H. Rahn, E. Koch, K. Greier, H. Pronalth, J. Kams, H.

Ewald. In 1887 Rev. G. Bartling was called from Concordia Seminary, St. Louis, Mo., to the pastorate of this church. The corner stone of the church building was laid in April, 1889, and the edifice was dedi- cated in July of the same year. It is a neat Gothic structure, with a seating capacity of 350. The society numbers forty-two active mem- bers, and 450 souls. The church property has a value of $4,500. Rev. Paul Graupner assumed the pastorate in 1892.


CHAPTER XVIII.


THE TOWN OF MURRAY.


In 1802 the town of Northampton was erected. It included the three eastern towns of Orleans county and a large portion of the western part of the county of Monroe. April 8, 1808, the town of Murray was formed from Northampton, and when organized included the towns of Murray, Kendall, Clarendon, Sweden, Clarkson, and Hamlin. Sweden, including Clarendon, was set off in April, 1813; Clarkson, including Hamlin, in April, 1819; and Kendall in April, 1837, leaving Murray with its present area of 18,033 acres. It was named in the honor of John Murray, who was a merchant of New York city, and who was large land owner in the town when it was erected. It lies wholly within the Connecticut or Hundred Thousand acre tract, and is bounded on the east by Monroe county and a small part of Kendall, on the south by Clarendon, on the west by Albion and Gaines, and on the north by Kendall. Thus it is seen that Murray is the senior town in Orleans county.


The surface is generally level, and drainage is afforded by Sandy Creek, the two branches of which unite at the village of the same name, in the north part of the town. In some places this stream has worn a deep channel. At Holley the gulf is crossed by an embankment over seventy-five feet high. The soil is a clayey and sandy loam, underlaid with Medina sandstone, which in many instances approaches near the surface.

ORLEANS COUNTY.


The land in Murray was owned jointly by the State of Connecticut and the Pultney estate, and that belonging to the latter was not sur- veyed and put in market until 1821. The Connecticut lands were sold earlier. No records of articles or contracts with the early settlers on the Hundred Thousand acre tract are accessible, hence it is possible to give only a list of the first deeds. The lots in the town north from the Ridge road, and one tier of lots south of the same, are numbered from west to east and from north to south. South from that road, except the one tier, they are numbered from south to north and from east to west; and the same order in each case is followed here regardless of chrono- logical arrangement. These lots were deeded as follows :
