COMING - MONDAY AND TUESDAY 6.3810 -In looking backward over the years, we find that previous to 1771 a large number of Preabyterians who had come from different sec- tions of Scotland had landed on the shores of this Island. From that heritage were born two noble missionaries, the first Canadian martyirs, who had chosen the South Seas as their field of labor. A tablet on the east side and over the Gordon pew of what was for- moriy called The Dock Presby- terian Church. now the United in Alberton (pictured above) reads: "In honored memory of two mis- sionaries from the congregation. George Nicol Gordon, who with his wife. Elleii Catherine Powell of London, England, was killed by the natives of Erromanga, May 20. 1861, and James Douglas Gordon, who took his brother's place and on March 7, 1872, also suffered a martyrs death." The church has a historic back- ground. In 1829. fourteen of the fol- lowing heads of families petitioned the Presbytery for a church and on July 20, 1831. they cirganized the Presbyterian Church in Cascumpec, now Alberton: John Gordon, (fath- er of the martyrs). Alexander Bell, James Clark, Chasrles Cras- wll, John Forsyth. James Forsyth, Robert Gordon. William Hardy, Robert Hardy, James Hardy, John Hewitt, William Women, James Wells and John Wells. Their first Kirk session, ordained and induct- ed by Rev. John Keir, comprised the following: John Gordbn, Rob- ert. Gordon. James Fcnrsythe. Rob- ert Hardy and Charles Craswell. Following the ordination of that Board of Elders, a church was built near what is known as the Dock cemetery and in which the congre- gation worshipped for approximate- ly twenty years. As there was no resident minister. au'ange.ments were made to give an occasional supply and to dispense the church ordinances, there being only five Presbyterian ministers on the Is- land at that time. The first regular pastor, Rev. J. C. Sinclair, a man of unusual pul- pit, ability, was inducted in 1843 and continued his ministry until 1852. During his pastorate. elders were ordained to care for the spiritual into.-ests of the western section of the congregation. The whole of Prince County. west of Lot ll. constituted one congrega- tion and the people of Tignish, though only twelve miles from the nearest church. -the Dock Church. -took three days to go and return home. They started on Saturday morning and travelled around -the shore until they came to Montrose River. Ovar this river they were paddled in a log canoe, their horses swimming after them. They then pursued their journey to the Dock. where the old church stood. Here they spent; their sabbath and on Monday retraced their steps. As this church became outmoded, a larger one was erected in 1864. near the top of the hill where now is the Htllcrest cemetery, but the next. year before the interior had been quite completed, it was de- stroyed by fire. Rev. Allan Fraser had been inducted as minister about this time and felt the loss of the church keenly. Another structure, the present one, was begun in 1856, on a site to the eastward of the pre- vious one. No records can be found to show the length of time of com- pletion but it. can be assumed it took several years as the finances of the congregation must have been severely strained after erecting the church which had been burned. The nails which had been used in the burned church were hand- made and brought firom New Bruns- wick by a sailor, Captain Kelly. The minister urged the children of the district to gather every nail possible for use in the new build- ing. These nails are still in use at the present time. Mr. Fraser's min- istry of fifteen years, with his un- tiring efforts, saw a phenomenal work in Prince County for Prea- byterianism. He had a gift for lead- ership which won him a high place in the Presbytery and in the coun- ciis of the Tenuiaranoe Movement of his time. The territory he serv- ed was extremely large and the families scattered. Nearly all the unveiling was done on horseback and the hardship of ministering't.o this extremely largo field broke down his health at the early use of forty-fin years. as was buried in the Dock cemetery when the pul- pit of the old church ind been.

M. who had attended this church as for the manner in which this chunrh was heated with its three box stoves, their pipes connected with a large drum midway to the cell- ing; and of the sexton, Mr. Cyrus Alton, ttptoing to replenish the stoves during a long prayer. A number of alterations made in the building in 1875; the doors on the pews were removed and new ends fitted to the seats; the windows at the back of the pui- plt were taken out; the gallery was made smaller; and the high pul- pit removed. Rev. A. F. Carr, D. D. became minister in 1871, and his faithful labors, his able administrative abil- lty, his great earnestness and paw- er as a preacher contributed great- ly to the progress made in the western part. of Prince County. His pastorate lasted for eighteen years. Because of disapproval, it was many years before an organ had been installed in the chunrh. The choir was seated in ethe gallery and led by a precentor. The first Organist was Miss Margaret Rog- ers and the first choir director, Mr. M. Fv. Leard. Rev. J. K Fraser, elder son of Rev. Allan Fraser, succeeded as minister in 1891. During his minis- try a hall was built at the rear of the church and a choir loft added, as well as a new organ and furnace. In 1896. Rev. H. G Gratz became the pastor. A special service was held on September 2.1906. to cele- brate the Fifticth Anniversary of the erection of this church and to unveil a tablet to the memory of Rev. Allan Fraser. The worship was conducted by the minister. Rev. H. G. Gratz. assisted by Rev. W. A. Macxay of Montroso and Rev. Wil- liam MacDonald of Bloomfield. Hon. Benjamin Rogers. who had been a leader in the work of this church and had remembered the building of it, gave the early history of this congregation to date. after which the tablet was unveiled and an op- pscprlate sermon preached by Dr. A. F. Carr; a former pastor. During the ministry of Rev. C::;':e Millar. a communion table and matching chair of oak were presented in memory of George C. Gordon by his widow. In 1920, while ftev. George Christie was in charge. a soldierr Memorial Tab- let was unveiled at a Sunday morn- ing service with a special sermon. The music for the occasion was rendered by an augmented choir and after the unveiling the Last Post was sounded. Following Union in 1925, this church became the property' of the United Church. of Canada. The building was then moved to its pre- sent site from its location in front of 1-lillcrcst. Cemetery. on July 31, 1027 the Alberton Presbyterian Church commemorated the 96th annivevrsary of its organization, while at the same time dedicated this place of worship which had been awarded to the United Church of Canada. The minister. Rev. W. M. Morrison, was assisted by Rev. Daniel Fraser, D. D., and Rev. John K. Fraser, D. D. The lmrge bell which has been reconditioned may again be heard for many miles. The pulpit Bible, now in use. was donated by Miss Maud Wisener in loving memory of her mother and sister. Over the years this church has given to the ministry the following men: The Gordon Brothers of ET- romanga; Rev. Donald iciordon; Rev. F. H. Larkins. D. D.; Rev.. J. K. an-sser, D. 1).: Rev. D. J. Pra- ser. D. D.; Rev. George Arthur; Rev. J. Simpson Gordon; Rev. A. B. MacLeod: Rev. Walter Matt- hews; Rev. Charles Hardy. The ministers in charge since Union and following Rev. George Christie. were: Reverends J. R. Miller: A. B. Weir; M. K. Charmsn: George mass; 0. N. Bomers; J. Murdock Fraser and P. A. Fitzpat- rick, aow in office. The present elders are Messrs.
