POTTER, Henry C., D. D .:

The seventh Protestant Episcopal bish- op of the diocese of New York; born Schenectady, N. Y., May 25, 1834, being the son of the Rev. Alonzo Potter, con- secrated bishop of Pennsylvania in 1845, and nephew of Rev. Horatio Potter, who became bishop of N. Y. City in 1861. Mr. Potter received his early education in the Philadelphia Academy of the Prot- estant Episcopal Church, and thence en- tered the Theological Seminary near Al- exandria, Va., from which he was gradu- ated in 1857. He was immediately made deacon, and one year later was ordained to the priesthood. From his entry on the diaconate until May 15, 1859, he was in charge of Christ Church, at Greensburg, Pa. He was subsequently transferred to St. John's Church, of Troy, N. Y., in charge of which parish he remained for seven years. At the end of this period he was installed as assistant rector at the famous Trinity Church, of Boston, where he served for two years. His next field of duty was as rector of an equally well-known church, Grace Church, N. Y. City, of which he assumed pastoral charge in May, 1868, a post of duty which he continued to occupy for the succeeding sixteen years. During this period several flattering offers came to him. In 1863 he was chosen president of Kenyon Col- lege, Gambler, Ohio, by a vote of its

at a later date (1875) declined another offer more in the line of his profession, that of Bishop of Iowa. His uncle, Bish- op Horatio Potter, of the diocese of New York, feeling, in 1883, unfitted to perform all the duties devolving upon him, prof- ferred a request for an assistant bishop to the Diocesan Convention. This request of the aged bishop was immediately complied with by the election of his nephew as assistant bishop. The consecration of the newly elected bishop took place on Oct. 20, 1883, in the presence of forty-three bishops and nearly three hundred clergy- men, who were assembled at the general convention. Mr. Potter's long connection as rector with Grace Church ceased in Jan., 1884, though he was still to remain related to his old parish in his new ca- pacity as bishop, which office he immedi- ately assumed. Bishop Horatio Potter be- ing unable to perform any of the duties of the office, he was soon obliged to retire from active labor in the diocese, all of whose duties now fell to the care of his assistant. On Jan. 2, 1887, the aged bishop died. His nephew now be- came the head of the see, a position which he has since that date continued to fill. The diocese over which he has episcopal control is the largest in popula- tion of any in the U. S. Its population is over two millions, and within its bounda- ries are more than two hundred parishes and churches and over three hundred and fifty clergy, while the number of commu- nicants is in excess of fifty-four thousand. The annual contributions of the diocese amount to over $3,000,000. In 1866, Bishop Potter was appointed secretary of the House of Bishops of the Protestant Epis- copal Church, and continued to perform the duties of that office until his election to the bishopric in 1883. Since his grad- uation, several honorary degrees have been conferred upon him by colleges. These include the degree of A. M., and subsequently that of D. D. from Union College, of LL. D. from the University of Cambridge, England; of D. D. from the University of Oxford, England; of D. D. from Harvard University and of LL. D. from Yale University, the last given on the occasion of its Bi-Centennial. Ad- dress, 113 W. 40th St., N. Y. City.
