Situa- ted on a long winding township road, four miles north of Holmes- ville, the imall white frame church was built about 1860 by a handful of pioneers. For years, Ebenezer has beeh connected with the Holmesville Church, but then -the latter con- gregation began- to dwindle and finally they joined with Wesley - Willis United, Church, Clinton. The name Ebenezer, taken from the Bible, and rneaninr"Stone of ielp," was a common name among the Methodist denomination in the early days, and the church retain- ed its name after union in 1925. The land for the church was given by John Budd, whose daughter later served as librarian in Clin- ton for 50 years. Some names con- nected With the church in the ear- ly days are John 41olnies, James and William Laithwaite Henry Ball, George Oakes, and Albert and Chris Nesbitt. John Arm- strong, whose wife was a sistei.-of Mr. Rudd, was .a lay rniiiister con- nected with the church at the be- ginning. ' • The first baby baptized was El:- izabeth Holmes, now Mrs. E. Beat- on, Bickford, who is in her -90th year. Her son, Rev. Kenneth Beaton, served as a missionary in China for over. 40 years. Richard Lobb, son of Mr. and Mrs. Harry Lebb, Foxwell Ave., Toronto, was the last baby christened --on Eas- ter Sunday last. In all only four weddings were solemnized in the church. The first was that of Marion Merrill and George Cole - 1,08h, (now living in Clinton) when the church was 86 years old. A frame building, with vertical board siding, the church has 13 seats with a seating capacity of 100. With no basement, its heat- ing system has been a small box stove, which burned a cord of wood a year. When electricity was installed four years -ago, the framework was revealed as timb- ers hewn from the bush. It is expected that the building will be dismantled after one year, but it is being retained for that period as a Sunday School. Mrs. 0. C.
