Second Presbyterian Church.


history of the Second Presbyterian Church.


THE Second Presbyterian Church was organized June 12th, 1844, on the old charter of 1837, at which time an unsuccessful attempt had been made to form a church. June 4th, 1844, a preliminary meeting of all persons friendly to the new enterprise had been held in the session room of the First Church. At this meeting Mr. William A. Otis was called to the chair, and Mr. T. P. Handy was appointed secretary.


The following resolutions were unanimously adopted :


Resolved, That when we organize ourselves into a church it be styled "The Second Presbyterian Church of Cleveland."


Resolved, That we adopt a similar form of government as at present held by the First Presbyterian Church, with their form of Covenant and Confession of Faith.


IOI


THE SECOND PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH.


Resolved, That Rev. S. B. Canfield, of Ohio City (now Cleveland, West Side) is our first choice to act as pastor of said church, when duly organized. A committee was appointed, consisting of S. H. Fox, J. F. Taintor and H. C. Kingsley, to ascertain the names of such members of the First Church as pro- posed to join the new organization. The charter members signed their names to a paper, the spirit of which shows that the exodus of the members from the First Church was not due in the least to any dissatisfaction with the mother church. The meeting to consider the removal of members from the First Church was publicly called, held in the session room of the church about to be left, and presided over by Dr. Aiken, pastor of the church. At this meeting, held Wednes- day evening, June 12, 1844, fifty-eight members were en- rolled, of whom all but five were received from the First Church.

Rev. Paul F. Sutphen, D.D.


Six ruling Elders and three Deacons were unani- mously' elected by ballot as follows:


Ruling Elders - David Long, M. D., Henry Sexton, Jeremiah Holt, Eli Morgan, Jesse F. Taintor, Samuel H. Mather.


Deacons-Wm. A. Otis, Truman P. Handy, Samuel H. Fox.


Elder Samuel H. Mather was elected Clerk of the Session, which office he filled for forty consecutive years, resigning in May, 1884.


Two days after this meeting the officers met in the office of Mr. T. P. Handy, and voted to extend a call to Rev. Sherman B. Canfield to become pastor of the church.


The house of worship which had been built by an organiza- tion known as the First Congregational Church, located at the north-west corner of the Public Square, was purchased for $3,200,

and there the Second Presbyterian Church commenced its services.


Mr. Canfield accepted the call of the church, and was installed as pastor on the evening of September 3, 1844, the sermon being preached by Rev. Samuel C. Aiken, D.D., pastor of the First Church. The first prayer-meeting was held in the commodious audience room, September 6, 1844, and was a meet- ing of deep consecration of the members to the new work.


On September 8, the Sunday-school was organized, with fifteen teachers and forty-five scholars. Mr. T. P. Handy was elected superintendent.


The pastorate of Rev. Mr. Canfield continued for nearly ten years. Its success justified the wisdom of the founders of the

church, who at their first meeting, before the church was formed, resolved that he should be their pastor. Mr. Canfield was not a rugged man physically, but he was a man of sterling mental and spiritual qualities. He possessed a vigorous intellect, a refined and culti- vated manner, and a heart full of kindness and sympathy. During his pastorate there were added to the church 349 members.


In the spring of 1850, the congre- gation having increased so that the church building was inadequate to accommodate it, a lot was purchased on the south side of Superior street, east of the Public Square, the site of the present "Crocker Block," and ar- rangements were made to construct upon it a new house of worship. The old edifice was sold to the Second Baptist Church, and it was removed to the corner of Erie street and Central ave- nue, where it now stands.


Rev. Sherman B. Canfield, D.D.


In 1851 the new church building so far neared its completion that services were held in the lecture room in October. The audience room was completed in 1852, and service was first held in it, in May of that year.


On April 23, 1854, Dr. Canfield was, at his own request, and greatly to the regret of his people, dismissed from the church to accept a call to the First Presbyterian Church of Syracuse, N. Y. There he labored with great success until the time of his death, March 5, 1871.


On September 27, 1854, a call was extended to Rev. James Eells, of Penn Yan, N. Y., to become pastor of the church. Mr. Eells accepted, and commenced his labors on November 10th, following. He was installed January 24th, 1855, the sermon being preached by the venerable father of the pastor, Rev. James Eells, for many years a home missionary in Northern Ohio. The ancestors of Mr. Eells had, for a period of more than 200 years, without a break in the succession, been ministers in the Presby- terian or Congregational Church in New England. Mr. Eells was

thirty-two years of age when settled in the pastorate of this church. He was tall and graceful in figure, with a certain dig- nity in demeanor, yet he was approachable, affable and courteous. He was everybody's friend. His preaching was less profound and logical than that of Dr. Canfield, but he had a faculty of convincing his hearers of the in- tense earnestness of his convictions, and when he spoke, people felt that his words reflected the deep feeling of his heart.


Rev. James Eells, D.D.


In 1860, on account of the ill health of Mrs. Eells, Mr. Eells asked for a dismission from the pastorate of this church. This was reluctantly granted him on April 3, 1860. Mr. Eells went to the Reformed "Church on the Heights," in Brooklyn, N. Y. During his ministry of five years in the Second Church, the additions had been 265.


In March, 1861, a call was issued to Rev. Theron H. Hawks, of West Springfield, Mass., and was accepted, Mr. Hawks commencing his labors April 21st. On the 26th of the same month he was duly installed by the Presbytery of Cleve- land.


During the pastorate of Dr. Hawks, extending over a period of seven years, 200 persons were added to the church. Dr. Hawks combined many qualifications which are essential to a successful ministry. He was scholarly in his tastes, a pleasing and effective speaker, and a devoted pastor. On April 26, 1868, Dr. Hawkes was, at his own request, dismissed from the pastorate, and later accepted a call to the First Congregational Church of Marietta, Ohio, where he remained for many years. He now resides in Springfield, Mass.


For a year and a half after the de- parture of Dr. Hawks the church had been engaged in energetic but fruitless efforts to secure a satisfactory successor,

when a correspondence was opened with Dr. Eells, who was then pastor of the First Presbyterian Church of San Francisco, and this resulted in extending to him a call to become a second time pastor of the church. A feeling of discouragement which had come over the church began to give way. The people rallied with the old time enthusiasm, but this second pastorate of Dr. Eells was destined to be short. The health of the pastor became impaired through excessive labor, and that of his wife, whose serious illness had compelled his removal ten years before, again became critical, so that in September, 1871, Dr. Eells expressed his fear that he might be obliged to resign. Leave of absence for six months was granted, and it was hoped that rest and a change of climate might bring relief. In the spring of 1872 Dr. Eells resumed his pastoral work, but a year later was compelled to resign, and on June 22, 1873, he was dismissed from his pastor- ate. He went to the First Presbyterian Church of Oakland, California. He was elected to the chair of Theology in the San Francisco Theological Seminary, the duties of which position he assumed in addition to those of his pastorate. Subse- quently he accepted the chair of Pastoral Theology in Lane Seminary, at Cincinnati, the duties of which he discharged with distinguished ability until the day of his death, March 7, 1887. Dr. Eells was elected moderator of the General Assembly in Chicago in 1877, and was honored with many other elections to important duties by the church at large. The funeral services of Dr. Eells were held in the Second Church, which he loved, and his mortal remains lie in beatiful Lake View Cemetery.


Some time before Dr. Eells severed his relations with the Second Church he corresponded, with the concurrence of the Session, with certain of his ministerial friends, with a view of finding a suitable successor for himself. The result of this cor- respondence was a unanimous call from the church to Rev. Charles S. Pomeroy, then pastor of the Ross Street Presbyterian Church, of Brooklyn, N. Y. On June 22, 1873, the very day when Dr. Eells preached his farewell sermon, Mr. Pomeroy was installed as pastor. Dr. Pomeroy came in the full vigor of his manhood. Trained in the ministry of the church, of ripe ex- perience, a facile and vigorous writer, an orator of ability, and an

accomplished scholar, he secured from the first the affection of the people.


About four o'clock on the morning of Monday, October 9, 1876, the church edifice took fire from a cinder brought by the wind from a fire in a distant part of the city, and in a few hours all but the lecture room was in ashes. Arrangements were made for services on the Sabbath in the Opera House, and then in Case Hall. So large a number of the members of the congregation had moved to the eastern part of the city since the construction of the burned church that it was decided to sell the lot on which it had stood, and build a new church farther up town. A com- modious lot was therefore purchased on the northwest corner of Prospect street and Sterling avenue, and energetic efforts were at once made to erect upon it a new edifice.


This was completed in the autumn of 1878, and was dedicated on October 27, of that year. For twenty-one years Dr. Pomeroy ministered to the Second Church. During that time 1,081 persons were added to the church, making a net gain of 386 during his pastorate. The semi-centennial exercises of this church were celebrated from June 10-13, 1894. After this happy occasion Dr. Pomeroy took his customary vacation, but upon Rev. Charles S. Pomeroy, D.D. his return, after a few days illness, he died, September 10, 1894. His death was a great blow, not only to the church he had so long served, but to the whole city, and to the church at large, in the ranks of whose ministry he was well known. The pulpit was vacant for some months, but finally a most fortunate and happy selection of a pastor was made in the call of Dr. Paul F. Sutphen, formerly pastor of the Woodland Avenue Presbyterian Church, but at the time of the call, pastor of the Oxford Presbyterian Church, Philadelphia. Dr. Sutphen has a host of friends to welcome his return to Cleveland, and under his ministration the past power of this strong church will be increasingly perpetuated.
