Egmondville Church
Reaches 97th Birthday
lEgnnondlvi'lle C'hurc'h was the moth-
er 'af Presbyterianism 'i'n 'Tucken•anniith
-and'ge'tt'ing on in years. She is
'g
boldinhe'r 917Th+ ann'iver'sary on Sun-
day, November 6, and will be glad
to welcome her 'children at the ser-
vice.,
Tia 11835', Egmon!dville was the
"Tuckersmith' ' pant of a "Three -
Townlsthnp Charge" (Goderich- Stan-
ley. Ducke'rsen'itlh). In that year the
(Reverend Alexander ,M'cIKenzve was
.settled in, the charge, the first Presby-
terian Minister in this part of On-
tario.
At that tithe the Reverend (William
Froudifoot ('later, Professor in Knox
College), reported that there were
many Highland Presbyterians here,
and drat praotkiwIlly all of the Presby-
terians were 'anxious to 'have a min-
ister. "Tuckersanh't'h," he wrote, "'pre-
sents a large and prosperous field far
missionary labor. 'Tlhe settlers are a
praying people." But 'the congregation.
was more or less nebulous, .hovering
from home to home, from b'a'rn to
mitt' to sdhoollhtoose.
Ito 11844 Tuckersmith was in Hamil-
ton 'Presbytery, and flim that Pres-
bytery received permission to ca1i a
Minister. They called the Reverend
William Gralham,. O:n Ja'nu'ary 15,
116415, Mr. Graham was ordained and
intdu'dted into the pastoral charge
which seems to have •extended from
IB'aylfietd to Mitchell. He was the min-
ister •here for thirty ye'ars. (Some have
thought that the 'congregation of Eg-
mondville dates from Mr. Graham's
induction, We go back ten years
earlier. )
tai 11$45 Mrs. MclKean of Gate-
house, Scotland, ('great, great, great-
gnandi nothe'r of the iChesney children
of today), presented: the congregation
with a beautiful communion service
and Baptismal Boivd. The Bowl is still
rased at the baptism services, while
the communion . service is highly
treasured' for its 'historic value.
In 11848 Tuckersmith c'h'arge Was
transferred' to the London Presbytery.
ifn 1849,' the western' part of the
charge decided to organize and stand
alone in Brucelfield. They called the
Reverend John Ross who, was their
milinister till the end of his Life.
In the same year, 1849, Mr. Van-
Egtmmnd gave a building site in Eg-
nrondw'ille, and the old church was
built, mostly by volunteer labor and
donated materials.
'The church was opened on July
21, 11850, the first .service being the
sacrament .of the 'Lord's Supper, when
80 people were at the Palble. The
ta'b'le used in that communion service
was loaned by Mrs. 1Fleurohetz (anal
it is still prized by Miss Margaret
IFleurchetz because of its phare in
that historic service: of 82 ye'ars ago).
Iter the same year, '11850, the congre-
gation gave £16, les.' 2d. to missions.
11893 the "Tn'ckersmi.th charge"
.became known as "the E'gmond'villel
charge." In 1861 we read of a com-
munion service which Wasted from
111 a.m. till 4 p.m. and was attended
by 1$0 members.
In 1862 the .membership of .Eg-
mon,dlvuli'e Church was reported as
286. But in 1.:6 it was greatly re-
duced for that year saw the congre-
gation divided again, gebgrap'h'ically,
and two new congregations, S'e'alfork'h
and. M'dIZi'ld.op, were sett up ecclesiasti-
cally by the •mother congregation. In
31874 Egrn'ondlville had 1116 members,
(Then they began talking of building

of a very pretty wedding when Eliza-

Hartman of Seafortlh. Rev. Platter
O'Drotv'ski performed the ceremony.
The bride; who entered the church on
the arta of her brother, Mr. Jack
Ryan, looked' ,charming in a navy blue
georgette dress with hat to mooch and
.carried yellow chrysanthemum's. Miss
An'n'e Ryan was 'brides'm'aid and wore
a dress of wine 'co'l'ored. satin and
carried yellow chrysanthemums. The

LONG
1An old resident was discussing his
boyhood days in Tuckersmith recently
and he told of a pioneer .'character of
that township who burned full-length
fence raids, sometimes suspected of
having been "borrowed" from read -
gide fencee. Instead of cutting the
rails into serviceable lengths he would
put one end in the fire and support the
nest of it on chairs extending across
the roont.
An'oth'er gentleman, after listening
to the albove, rean'embered' that in
Wellington cou'ntty one of the .citizens
was in the habit of putting whole lags
in his fire, the end usually extending
out into the woodshed u'n'til( it burned
short enough to close the d'oor.
