Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Bi-Centennial Celebration: Of the First Congregational Church and Society of Bridgeport, June 12th and 13th, 1895 The First Church and Society of Bridgeport - originally the Parish of Stratfield - looked forward to the two-hundredth anniversary of its organization for some years previous with increasing interest. The celebration was carefully planned and most successfully carried out. The decorations of the church were extremely effective; the weather was perfect; the attendance of interested and sympathetic audiences was from beginning to end as great as could be accommodated; the music - rendered by the combined choirs of the First, the Second, the Park Street Congregational Churches, and the Presbyterian Church - was admirable; in short, the occasion seemed to those most concerned to be a delightful one in every particular. It appeared desirable to preserve a permanent record of it. As far as practicable, to do this is the purpose of the present volume. One feature of the celebration was of necessity an incident of the occasion only. By dint of much research and labor, and the contribution of many willing hands, a remarkable loan-collection of relics was gathered and exhibited in the Chapel. The Committee take this opportunity of tendering their hearty thanks to all who lent their aid toward this most valuable and interesting illustration of the history which the celebration commemorated. The proceedings in the several services were stenographically reported by Mr. F. G. Fowler. The lists of members have been compiled by the sub-committee constituted for the purpose - among whom it is not invidious to name Mr. Richard B. Cogswell.
