viz : the acceptance of a call as pastor of the congregation fully organized. Apparently he commeured to hold services here as soon as he entered the field, but did not succeed in formally organizing the congregation until this time.


The corner-stone, so the document says, was laid in 1751. No precise date is given. But apparently it was in the month of May, probably the latter part. It is not stated whether there was a building committee. If there was, it evidently consisted of John Bey- er and Michael Sebaner who, in behalf of the congregation, drew up the contract for the mason work, with Andrew and Michael Dietz, of Lancaster county. That it was a stone building is evident from the dimensions of the wall as given in the contract, viz : 40 x 36 x 20. The masons were to re- ceive one shilling and six pence per perch. about 20


cents, and doubie that amount for the foundation. Four day laborers were to be employed by Messrs. Beyer and Schauer to dig the foundation. and af- terward to act as ten- dors to the masons. The forfeit or penal- ty for failure to com- ply with the condi- tions of the contract was to be fifty pounds for either party, the final payment was to be made Nov. 16. 1751. There is an- other contract dated June. 1751. But it is almost undo-


cipherable. brief examination, how- over shows that it is for lumber, viz : joists.


Evidently the church remained in an un- finished state about two years. This is shown by the existerce of another contract dated June 18. 1753. This is signed by Joh. Geo. Luck. Simon Bennetsch and fourteen other members of the Lutheran congregation in Heidelberg township. The fourteen are : Michael Schauer, John Beyer, John Arzt, Philip Ermentrout, Peter Fey, Leonhard Fey, Heinrich Fiedler, John Bayer, Jr., Henry Bayer. Henry Gruber, Matthias Wennrich. Jacob Mauns, Jost Hetterich and Adam Schauer. It is for the carpenter work which is to be done by Christian Betz. Ile is to receive twenty-four pounds. Pennsylvania

currency (sixty-four dollars), with free boarding and lodging while doing the work. The congregation is to furnish the nails, putty, &e., in fact all the materinis. The money is to be paid as enrned. Thorough, workmanlike work is promised. The penalty is forty pounds. There is no account of the dedication. it is within the range of possi- bility that no dedication was ever held. This would not be so very strange as quite a num- ber of churches of those carly days have no such records, and it is almost absolutely cer- tain that at least some of them were never formally dedicated.


This building remained in use a little more than sixty years. By this time it was con- siderably delapidat- ed. and it had also become too small for the congregation. The following wore therefore appointed a Building Commit - Henry Ben- notsch. Henry Gru- ber, George Gruber. John Ernst, Peter Spang, John Pahn, William Roether and Jonathan Minnig. These also acted as collectors and pay- masters as is shown by the book of set- tlement, containing the amounts collect- ed and paid out by each. The date of this settlement is March 1, 1817. The corner-stone was laid May 1, 1814.


In connection with a Bible, a Iat- theran catechism, Lutheran Nym Book, etc., etc .. the usual "Declaration" was placed in the corner-stone. This "Declaration" sets forth that this church, now called St. Daniel's, "is forever to be, and to remain a Lutheran church, in which the Gospel is to be preached and the Holy Sacraments are to be admin- istered, according to the teachings of Christ and in accordance with the Augsburg Con- fession whose contents we have in our prec- ious catechism, which, together with the Holy Scriptures is now deposited in the corner- stone, so that future generations may know what our confession is." The document thus deposited, it is said, was signed by the El- ders and Deacons, as well as the Building Committee, together with the ministers pres- ent. Unfortunately none of these names are found here or elsewhere, except Building


Committee found elsewhere. Again the church was apparently not innnediately com- pleted, possibly not in less than two years.


The settlement of March 1, 1817, says it was that of the accounts for the newly built St. Daniel's church, implying, although not declaring so in express terms that the build- ing was but recently finished. All this would seem to indicate that the present building does not ocenpy the same spot on which the first church stood. Again there is no account of the dedication. It is now abont ninety years old-will it fill out the hundred?


From the settlement already referred to. We also learn that the members of the build-

ing committee collect- ed and paid ont $2 .- 089.07, and that $820.83 were vet to be paid. making a total cost of 918.90, certainly a very reasonable amount for a large stone building, with sandstone trimmings. about 70 x 48 or 50. Apparently there has been no considerable change in the inter- mal arrangement. construction or style of the building, ex- cept perhaps the ad- dition of paint to beautify it. As was customary 75 or 100 years ago, open stair- ways lead to the gal- leries, which occupy the three sides, cast. south and west. The organ is on the south side opposite the high pulpit.


The fact that the deed for the first tract of land. 1 acre and 71% perches, bought of John Artz, bears date Nov. 30, 1747, might indicate that the first steps looking to the organization of a congregation at this place, were taken then and that this was the time when Rov. Kurtz commenced holding regular services here. This deed was acknowledged before Conrad Weiser. June 8. 1751. The tract cost five shillings, or less than three quarters of a dollar. Another tract of 12015 perches or 31 of an acre and 1 perch, was bought about the same time from Abraham Lauck. The price was the same. The congregation now owned nearly two acres of land for which they had paid about 75 conts an acre.


From time to time small tracts were add- ed. August 21. 1773, fifty-three perches were

bought from Geo. Lauck for 40 shillings. This would have been between $15.00 and $20.00 per acre. May 20. 1813, just before commencing the present church. 150 perches were added and April 2, 1847, 1 acre, 961% perches. Another acre was added in 1866. About April, 1901, they purchased the tract of about 7 acres immediately south of their other property. So that the property now consists of about 14 acres.


The house formerly occupied by the organ- ist, sexton and overseer of the cemetery, gon- orally the same person hitherto, immediately south of the church, has been removed and a new and more modern structure takes its place.


The Lutheran con- gregation has had a comparatively small mumber of regular pastors. only two during the first sixty or more years. They are the following : Rev. J. N. Kurtz, D.D., from the or- ganization between 1747 and 1750 until 1770; Roy. Christ- opher Emanuel Schulze. 1770 til death, March, 1809. It is altogether prob- able that the most of the preaching and pastoral service of this church, Womels- dorf and Bernville, was attended to by John Andrew Selitilze during the 8-10 years in which he was his father's assistant. Then af- tor the death of Em- anuel Schulze there was a vacancy of a little more than two years. Whether Rev. Wm. Beates, who took charge of Warwick, Schaefferstown, Swamp, Myerstown and Womelsdorf, and who re- tained Womelsdorf about 8 or 10 years, also supplied this church with most of the others during the vacancy, we cannot say.


1892-1901.


THE REV. WILLIAM W. KRAMLICH.


But in 1811, Rev. Daniel Ulrich was call- ed to the Tulpehocken parish, of which this was a part and served Christ at Stouchsburg, Rehrersburg, Newmanstown, Bernville and possibly other churches in connection with this congregation which he served until Sept. 25, 1853, and Womelsdorf about 18 years, say 1821-49 or 50.


Rev. T. T. Jaeger then became its pastor 1853, till Jan. 17, 1864.


Rev. Henry S. Miller served the congrega- tion January to July, 1864.


Rev. Aaron Finfrock became its pastor 1864 until the close of 1892.


W. W. Kramlich became its pastor 1892 until Nov. 1901.


During the vacancy from Nov. 1901-1902, it was supplied by Rey. J. W. Early by di- rection of the president of Conference, when Rev. O. E. Pfinger, formerly of Elizabeth- ville. Dauphin county, entered upon his duties as regular pastor of the Womelsdorf parish and has now been its pastor nearly a yenr.


We have been told that during the pastor- ato of Rev. Finfrock, in 1876, one hundred and twenty-five years after the corner stone of the first church was laid, and more than sixty years af- ter the second one was laid, in which the Lutherans had registered their sol- Minh oath, calling heaven and earth to witness that they meant to preserve it intact as a Intheran church, it was made a so-called Union church. But appar- ently it is not union in the sense and manner in which some others are. For in the "Bules and Regulations of St. Daniel's Evangelical Lutheran church in Heidelberg township, Berks county," pub- lished in 1895, nine- foon years after the admission of the Ro- formed, there is not a line, or even a word indicating the right of any other congregation to say or do anything that might interfer with the absolute antonomy of this Lutheran congre- gation. From this it would seem that the relations of the two congregations are simi- lar to those of the Reformed and the Luth- eran congregations at Millersburg. the order being simply reversed. While the one owns the property and has absolute control of it the other is allowed the free use of it under a mutual agreement. The conditions of the agreement we did not find in the record. Rev. Thomas C. Leimbach has been the pastor of the Reformed congregation ever since it has occupied the church.


The Lutheran congregation is quite strong. numbering about 450 at a single communion. indienting that the total membership might

possibly be almost if not altogether 600.


During the time of their connection with Tulpehocken, Stouchsburg and Reed's cou- gregations they assisted in building the first parsonage and in all probability the second. for it seems almost certain that the present parsonage is not the first one. They were re- garded as an integral part of that parish for fully one hundred years, until near the close of Rev. Ulrich's ministry, when he gave up Christ and Rehrer sburg, and they called another pastor before he ceased his labors here. From that time on they have been a part of the Womelsdorf parish.


It might added that there is a union chap- el at Robesonia, about 11 mile distant, in


which English services are held in the evening on stated Sun- days. for the benefit of the young people, so that it might fairly be said that the congre- gation has one service every Sunday.


A few words in conclusion. It might be a matter of inter- est to the mem- bers to know who were the first contribut- ors to the support of the pastor. They were : Johannes Arzt,* Michael Schauer, Philip Armentrout Adam Schauer, Heinrich Fied- ler, Simon Bennetsch, Jacob Sensebach, fuer frau, Heinrich Gruber, Joh. Geo. Lang. Laz- arus, Wingert, seine frau, die Witwe Maun- zin, Joh. Adam Banowiz, Peter Foy, John Dieter. Jost Hetterich, Leonhard Fey, Johannes Bayer, sr., Friederich Haehns frau, Matthias Wonerich, Heinrich Bayer, Michael Kessler, Balthaser Wenerich, John Bayer, jr., Joh, Geo. Urig. Michael Schneider, Nick- olaus Schweyer, Jacob Boerm or Foerm. Hejurich Frey, Fredr Weiser, Joh. Jacob So- fass fuer meine frau, Michnel Bortz, Nick-


olaus Marder and Fr. and Peter Werlan and two others without names. These contribut- ed over 12 pounds, about $33.00, or on an average of one dollar each.


That they had also built themselves a school house is evident from the fact that there is a subscription list for that purpose, in which the contributions are also noted.


Therefore let us not only cherish the men- ory of these our fathers, who did so much for us, especially for the extension of the church and the preservation of the pure faith among ns, but let ns also strive to imitate their works. They labored under great dis- advantages and with much self- denial. They

labored in pov- erty in a new and unenlivated country. Now it has become a garden. Their homes were mostly huts and cabins with bare doors and with scarcely any furniture or oth- er conveniences and comforts of civilized life. We have all the gifts and blessings which were de- nied them. Yet out of their por- erty they con- tributed liberal- ly to provide the preaching of the


Gospel for themselves and their children. Should we not do the same? Has it occurred to us that if the same standard of contribut- ing to the support of the Church and of the Gospel prevailed among us which obtained among our fathers, instead of having twenty- six parishes, some of which have five or six or even more good sized congregations we would have from fifty to sisty parishes in the Reading Conference, with at least one service every Sunday in every church and the pastor overseeing the instruction of the young and thus fulfilling the injunction "Feed my Lambs."

PRESS NOTICES


It may seem a strange coincidence that we have two "Corner" churches in Berks county, the one just mentioned (St. Daniel's) and the New Bethel or "Corner" church in the angle formed by the Pinnacle, a spur of the Blue Mountain itself. However, it was the corner church near Robesonia that celebrated its sesqui-centennial last Sunday. Even the program in full would occupy quite a large space. Suffice it to say that the weather was favorable and everything auspicious. The church could not hold more than 600 or 700. But there was another church full about the windows aud doors.


Perhaps it would be worth while to men- tion the fact that in the evening one of the deacons used a "Klingle Sack," the only one in the possession of the congregation, in tak- ing up the collection. It is of peculiar con- struction. The bell is not attached or sus- pended from the pouch, but is fastened to the stem, very much in the manner in which sleigh-bells are sometimes fastened to the shafts.


Only a few important facts in connection with the past history of the church can be given. In 1750 the congregation applied to the Ministerium and was received by it. It at once called Rev. J. N. Kurtz, and in 1751 comuneneed the erection of a church which was completed 1753. In 1770 Kurtz left. and Emmanuel Schulze became the pastor and remained so until March, 1809. He was succeeded by Rev. Daniel Ulrich in 1811. In 1814 the corner-stone of the present edifice was laid. Since 1853 it has been a part of the Womelsdorf parish. Its location is some-


what unfortunate, as it is too distant from the growing town of Robesonia and too near to have a separate organization in the town. But there seems to be renewed activity in the congregation and a solution of the diffi- culty may be found .- The Lutheran.


The sesqui-centennial celebration of the St. Daniel's ( Corner ) Evangelical Lutheran con- gregation, at Robesonia, on Saturday and Sunday, was attended by large concourses of people at all of the five services. Elaborate preparations were made for the event by special committees appointed for the purpose, and everything passed off in the best of or- der, the program being carried out to the leiter.


The services were in charge of the pastor, Rev. O. E. Pflueger, assisted by a number of visiting clergymen. Though the church is union, this was distinctively a Lutheran celebration. It is only in late years that the Reformed congregation, under the pastorate of Rev. T. C. Leimbach, is worshiping in the edifice. It is only the Lutheran congregation that celebrated its 150th birthday .- The Reading Times.


The 150th anniversary of St. Daniel's ( Corner) Evangelical Lutheran congrega- tion, at Robesonia, Rev. Oscar E. Pflueger, pastor, was observed on Saturday afternoon and evening, and the services were continued on Sunday. The church was beautifully decorated with greens and mountain ash. In the rear of the pulpit was the word "Wel- come," below which were the figures "1753- 1903," and the inscription, "Ses ui-Centen- nial," in evergreen letters .- The Reading Eagle.
