the first time the org'anist,. MisS
Azuz00.ie Reid, received a salary of
925,
Rey, J. 0, Forster was minis-
ter from 1928-32. During that
time several meetings were held
for discussion of Cliurelz Uiei011,
to 1982, when We Subject of
Church, Union of the two Londes-
boro charges, Burns' and Con-
stance to make three separate
congregations, serviced by ono
minister, Burns' members voted
unanimously in favor of union.
Presbytery showed great wis.
dont in Choosing Rey. A, W. Gar-
diner as the minister of the
charge. Both lie and Mrs, Gard-
iner possessed the qualities
which endeared them to all the
people of the community. They
remained for six years,
In 1933 Mrs. Bert Allen, Miss
Jean Hamilton and Mrs. John
Beattie were appointed to the
Board of Managers. A joint re-
port with the other 2 charges has
since union been published year-
ly-. There were 121. members at
this time.
Rev A, E, Menzies was minis-
ter from 1938.45. During those
years we were privileged to wel-
come home otu• boys from the
Second World War... It was re-
markable that although some
zvero badly wounded, and some
riser trying experiences, none
from any of the three congrega-
tions made the supreme sacrifice.
Rev, A, Penman ,served from
1945-47. Later ministers have in-
cluded Rev, S. H. Brenton, 1947-
52; .Rev. Gandier for one year,
and our present minister, Rev.
J. T, White.
In 1955 Hydro was installed in
the church.
Name of Church
In 1858, when making plans
for the building of the first
church, it was decided to name
it "The H'ullett Free Church."
As money was needed to build a
manse, in 1861 some church
seats were sold at $4.00 each, and
some choice seats sold to the
highest bidder. IB11rial lots, val-
ued at $57.00, were sold to pay
for fencing. A. soiree was held
near •Ohristmas to pay off the
debt of the church.
Members thought they should
no longer call it a "Free Church
so changed the .name to "The
Canada Presbyterian Church of
Hullett In 1803 the name was
changed to "Burns' Church, Hul-
lett" In 19.32 when union of the
two Londesboro congregations
with Constance and Burns' was
consummated, the new name gi-
ven was "Burns' United Church,
H•ullett"
In 1876 the congregation de-
cided • the site of the manse
should be at the eastern end of
the village of Londesboro. This
manse, built and owned • by
Burns' Church, was the home of
the ministers who preached at
both Burns' and Knox Church,
Londesboro, until Burns' entered
into Union, when it was sold to
George McVittie for a home.
After Union, the former Meth-
odist parsonage became the
manse of the United Church, and
all three congregations share the
expense.
The above history of Burns'.
Church was compiled by Mrs.
George Carter for the Centennial
occasion,
