..Te Corner Stone of the new
chureh was laid by' Mr. I,
then proprietor of the corner
store. The stone is said to con-
tain certain important • docu-
ments of the church, the names
of the ministers, several cotes
and other objects of interest.
• The contract for the mason-
ery work was let to Hiram 11111, a stone mason of Clinton, Oliver
Rhynas of Goderich contracted
forthe frameWork and Danprior
of Clinton took the contract for
the brink work. Most of the
labor was done free by the resi-
dents of the district. Bees were
organized for digging the base-
ment, hauling stone and brick,
cutting stone 'and other tasks.
Finding the right kind of stone
for the foundations proved to be
something of a problem, as the
common- field stone proved un-
suitable for the 'purpose. How-
ever, thig problem was solved
When it was found that suitable
stone could be taken from the
river nearby Maitland River and
still better stone could be taken
from the river at Ball's Bridge.
It was no light task to remove
these stones from the river, haul
them to the building site and dress
them for use, but many willing
hands completed the tasks: The
red brick for the ornamental
trimming was obtained from the
brickyard at Henfryn in Grey
Township.
A rather humerous story is
nS4tiected with the red-brick.
Xbotit 2500 of theM were required
and accordingly two men were de=
tailed to team them from Hen-
fryn, about thirty miles away.
HoWever, the distance of travel
made it necessary to stay over
night at Brussels. When they
were ready to leave in the morn-
ing, foi"bome unaccountable rea-
son they forgot where they were
to obtain the bricks and the name
of the manufacturer. After some
enquiries, they were advised that
Gorrie was the place red brick,
were manufactured. Upon ar-
riving in Gorrie the owner of the
brickyard informed them he had
no order and moreover he did
not have 2500 •bricks to give
them. However, they, might try
Henfryn brickyard, At the name
of Henfryn they remembered this
was the place they were to go for
Sunday. '

The opening date of the church
was set -for Sunday„November 24,
1898, but a minor hitch arose.On
'the afternoon preVitius to the op-
ening the pews had not yet ar-
rived from the manufacturer in
Chatham. That evening the pews
did arrive by railway and the
committee worked most of the
night and part of Sunday morn-
ing, setting them up and putting
them in place before the hour of
opening service. The completed
church, as it stands today, 14(1
been built for a total of $5,500.00.
At the time of opening the build-
ing committee announced that the
church was clear of debt except
or live hundred dollars. This
deficit was raised on-the spot by
popular donation and when the
church was dedicated it was com-
pletely free of debt.
• The church is substantially
the same today as it was at the
time of dedication, On Good
Friday, March 21, 1913, a wind-
storm lashed'the district and the
church steeple' crashed to the
grouful aleng with the church bell.
However, the damage was re-
paired and a new belfry replaced
the old steeple. The awe bell
was installed and still calls the
faithful to worship Sunday morn-
ings,. and peals forth the joyOus
news of a church wedding. At
the opening of the 75th year of
'worship In the church, January
1973, a Memorial Chime system
was installed and each Sunday
morning the well-known andloved
hymns peel forth over the vil-
lags and surrounding
tryside,,
