Don poses with to) United CIwreit in Bracefield has history of dedicated people A year and a half after the old Brucefield United Church burned on November 20,1970, the congregation held the dedication of the present church building, the third in their hundred year history. Rev. Wilson Morden, president of the London Conference officiated at the May 7, 1972 dedication. Rev. Paul Packman was minister atthe time. The church, the newest in the area, was built following a building program carried out by a committee headed by Ross Scott and including Bob Fotheringham, John Breadfoot, Mel Graham, Mrs. John Henderson, Fred McGregor, John Moffat, Arnold Taylor, Elgin Thompson, Mrs. Stuart Wilson and W.D. Wilson. Rev. E. Donald Stuart, minister at the time of the fire, was an ex - officio member of the building committee. News stories at the time said the fire was detected by Rev. Stuart who went to the Church to see if someone was in it. "The water • pressure system, which serves both the Church and the manse seemed to be working overtime," said • Mr. Stuart. "When I went to investigate, I saw what I thought were the. basement lights of the Church. I returned to the manse to get my wife and when we returned the light was much brighter. It was then we realized that it was a fire." Fanned by high winds and. fed by highly varnished wood, the fire completely destroyed the Church in about forty-five minutes. The alarm was answered by the Brucefield Fire Brigade who were assisted by units from Seaforth and Clinton. The fire, however, was too far advanced when firemen arrived to save anything. All that remained the following Saturday morning were the fire weakened brick walls of the building. The loss was estimated at over $150,000. It was partially covered by insurance. The Church was built in • 1908 at a total cost of $10,239 using brick from the +original Presbyterian Church built in 1878. The present congregation numbers almost 300 members in- volving 110 families. Many of them attended services in Kippers on Sunday. The congregation quickly rallied and 'within weeks a decision to rebuild had been taken. On April 18th or the fol lowing year the congregation • approved ar- chitects' plans for a new edifice. Volunteer workers con- tinued clean up activities. The cornerstone which was relaid in the new Church two weeks ago was recovered and on being opened was found to contain pertinent relics of the church and community. Found in the stone were an old communion token, a 1906 —fifty -cent piece, a 1907 twenty-five cent piece, a 1907 penny, which is the sire of today's quarters, a 1905 dime and a five -cent piece dated 1907, which is smaller than today's dime. The cornerstone also contained a copy of The Huron Expositor dated June 12, 1908 and a Seaforth News date June 11, 1908. A hand- written note explains that the two newspapers "represent the Liberal and Conservative viewpoints in the com- munity." Several church publications, including the 1907 church annual report, the May 1908 issue of the Presbyterian Record and the June 1908 issue of The Presbyterian were also in- cluded along with a hand- written history of the church. The large bell, which fell from the tower, was •also found in good condition. All that Was found of a very old and valuable communion set owned by the church were several soot encrusted pieces of silver Which had been melted by the heat of the fire and now resembled cinders from a furnace.
