Away back in 1839 the Presbyterian hurch in Logansport was not the powerful organization it is at the In those early daya the jhuroh was comprised in one congregation which worshiped in the since remodeled church edifice at the corner of Ninth street and Broadway under tho pastorate of Rev. Dr. Post of revered memory. In that year there was a division in the congregation, iho -'old school" faction drawing out and leaving the "new school" element In the congregation to retain tho Broadway church. Upon this division the "old then very few in number, became organized under tbe dlrecllon of Rev.

John Wright. This notable organization was affected and services held In the spring of 1810 In a two story frame structure used then as a Latin school and standing at the corner of Fourth street and Broadway on the site now and long past occupied by the McTaggart block. ID the hal' on the second floor of this old sohoo building Rev. John Wright organized his little band of followers Into tte old school Presbyterian churob o' Lo gansport, wtlch body was duly Incor porated under the laws of the Stati and the charter approved by a specla acl of the General Assembly of lodl ana January 8th. 1840.

Upon thi of tbe old and the new schools about 1876 It became known as the First Presbyterian church. The of the and trustees were: Wm. Brown, Andre Young, David Corblt. James W. Dunn and John W.

After a period of worship in the old Latin school building the congregation held services in the then Odd Fellows on the second lloor of the WmSon Wright building on Market street, three doors west of Third street, where services were bold until the church ediflco was erected in 1842. In the early part of that year Williamson Wright, son of the Kov. John Wright, donated to the cliuruh lot (i-1 In Tlpton's second addition to Logans- poat on condition that a stone edifice should be erected thereon at a cost of not loss than $2 000 and maintained as a church. Tho necessary building was accordingly erected. Ten years later the mumborshlphad BO increased that in May, 1853, It was resolved to enlnrRO tho churjh by taking out tho south ond and adding 20 feet.

The first regular pastor was Rov. James Buchanan, who followed Uov, Wright's temporary pastorate In the spring-of 18-11. and continued to sustain thdt reiatlon until the time of his death In September, 1813. From tho spring of 1844 to the fall of 18J7 Rev. Thomas Crowe wua tho pastor.

In the spring of 3S61 Rev. J. C. Irwin was called and continued as pastor until the summer of 1807. It was during his ministry that the property adjoining the church was purchased, being used as such until 'our years ago when tho handeome High street parsonage was reeled.

For tho noxt three years he pulpit was supplied by Vm. Greenough, following whom Rav. M. Sahofleld was called In Jan- lary 1871. It was during Rov.

Its prosperity is significant. After the clearance of a considerable debt and tbe added improvements of some thousands of dollars it meets with a stunning disaster. It is not discouraged. By active work some $10,000 is secured on subscription; tho insurance on the Old building amounted to the Ladies Aid Society secured some $1,200. The cost of the now church is about $22,000.

Of tho remaining unprolvdcd for all but a low dollars was raised by voluntary subscription Sunday.
