HE Eleventh Annual Meeting of - the Church T Training and Deaconess House of the Diocese of Pennsylvania was held in the Woman's Auxiliary Room of the Church House, on Wednesday, January 8, 1902, at 4 P. M. In the absence of the Bishop, the Warden the Rev. Jas. DeWolf Perry, D.D., occupied the chair and conducted the devotional exercises. The Minutes of the Tenth Annual Meeting were read and approved. The following communication was read from the Bishop : 4027 WALNUT STREET. Philadelphia, January 6, 1902. MY DEAR MR. MILLER: I greatly regret that I cannot be present at the Annual Meet- ing of the Corporation of the Church Training and Deaconess House. I congratulate the friends of the Deaconess House upon the prosperous year that has passed, and the encouraging outlook for the future ; and I rejoice in the prospect of usefulness that is. evidently opening before us in the work of St. Martha's House. I hoped to give at this meeting a report of the final arrangements r garding the finances and management of this new department of our work, but this has been prevented by my illness. I can only say now that the property is held by me in trust, and that I feel no anxiety as to the future support of the Institution. It lias begun its work in the right spirit and manner, and its administration thus far gives reason to antici- pate that it will not only be of great benefit to all who come within the range of its influence, but that our post graduates who share its burdenb and responsibilities, will find thisexperi- ence a Most valuable preparation for their life work. Will you kindly announce to the Meeting that I have reap- pointed the Rev. J. DeW. Perry, D. D., Warden ; Miss Caroline H. Sanford, House Mother: and the present Board of Managers for the ensuing year ; and have also appointed Miss jean W. Colesbury, Deaconess, to be in charge of St. Martha's House. lam thankful to be able to tell you that lam steadily though slowly recovering health and strength. For several days past I have sat up two or three hours twice a day. Will you give my love and blessing to all those engaged in the Deaconess work, which is very near my heart. Affectionately yours, 0. W. WHITAKER, The Reports of the Board of Managers, including that of the Treasurer, the House Mother, and the Treasurer of the Corporation, were read and referred to Committee on Publication, consisting of Miss Coles, Deaconess Sanford, the Warden and the Secretary. An election for members of the Board of Council re- sulted in the choice of George C. Thomas, Charles C. Harrison, R. Francis Wood, Ewing L. Miller and Wharton Sinkler, M.D. George C. Thomas was elected Treasurer and Ewing L. Miller Secretary of the Corporation. The Chairman announced that a - complete index to the end of the year 1901 of all missionary articles pub- lished in the "Spirit of Missions" had been prepared by Deaconess Sanford for presentation by the Dea- coness House to the Board of Managers of the For- eign and Domestic Missionary Society which would be of great value for reference by students and all others interested in Missions, and that the publishers, recognizing the importance of the work, had agreed to continue the index in future On motion, then adjourned. Attest : EWING L. MILLER, Secretary. ANNUAL , REPORT. To the Bishop awl Corporation of the Church Training and Deaconess House of the Diocese of Pennsyl- vania It is with very deep feelings of gratitude to God, that we begin this, our Ele-venth Annual Report of the "Church Training and Deaconess House." The never-failing generosity of those interested in the work, has made it possible for us to compete the en- tire payment on 710 Spruce Street, and we stand to-day, free from all det,t, and owning two large houses, with beautiful open lots, of very real value, and in a situation which always seems peculiarly well fitted for the carrying on of our work—Laus Deo. It seems almost beyond belief, that our work has grown and developed as it has. In its earlier concep- tion, the idea was no more, than to give to the rising generation of Churchwomen, the opportunity to learn from those of long experience, how better to do the Church's work. But each year, this idea has deepened and widened and broadened, and each year, new and better opportunities are given to the students, and to- day we claim that our School offers an almost ideal course of training, to workers in parishes, and in the Domestic and Foreign Missionary field. As we read over the records of the years that have gone, we can- not fail most gratefully to recognize growth in every direction. "The Scheme of Studies" set forth each year, is scarcely more than an outline of what is done, and at first sight, may not give a just estimate of the amount of intellectual work required of the students. But women, who have been prominent members of the Board, and closely connected with the House, and whose lives have been given to :eaching, realize the amount of study it entails, and the necessity that each student should have the very best opportunities for accomplishing her task. For this reason, we desire during the coming sum- mer, when the students are absent in the hospitals, to make certain changes in our new house, which will give us greater facilities for the better carrying on of our work, and we realize that to do this wisely and well, will cost perhaps more money than we may stem justified in asking, at a time when so many appeals are necessarily being made for things, which may claim to be of greater importance. But our duty seems dear to lay the matter before the Church, and to appeal to her members, to help us to put our Philadelphia School in the very best shape possible.

  • The History Christ Church
    The History Of Christ Church Pottstown, Pa. Compiled by MORISON BLAKE, USNR-RET. + 1964 1846 1964 FOREWORD In compiling the history of a church many sources must be sought out and consulted. The newspaper clippings collected over a long period of time by the late Frederick W. Ancona have been of inestimable help. The History of Christ Church written and privately printed by the late William Herbert Price has suggested many areas to explore in even more detail then he was able to do at the time of his writing. Our parent church, St. Gabriel’s of Douglassville, published recently, a monograph of its history and through the courtesy of the Rector, Reverend Lloyd L. Wolf, a copy was given to Christ Church to aid in obtaining the background of our heritage. The Pottstown Mercury has been most generous in permitting incorporation of items appearing in its pages concerning Christ Church, which are of value in the history of a church. Too much cannot be said for the assistance of the staff of the Pottstown Public Library in making available sources of collateral Pottstown history which fitted the community activities of Christ Church.

Drayton Family Papers Collection 1584 Drayton Family Papers, 1783-1896 (bulk 1830-1880) 63 boxes, 38 vols., 26 lin. feet Collection 1584 Abstract The family of Colonel William Drayton (1776-1846) experienced the sectional conflicts of mid-nineteenth-century America in a very personal way. A scion of a wealthy South Carolina plantation family, the colonel enjoyed a successful legal career in Charleston and several terms as a popular representative in the U.S. Congress, until the nullification crisis of the early 1830s put him at odds with his constituents. While the majority of South Carolinians believed that states should have the right to veto federal laws they found unacceptable, Colonel William supported federal authority. Partly in reaction to the ramifications of this difference of opinion, in 1833 Colonel William moved his family to Philadelphia, where he resided until his death in 1846. The colonel‘s oldest son, Thomas, however, returned to South Carolina to work on the railroad and to establish a plantation at Hilton Head. When the sectional tensions that flared in the nullification crisis escalated to war, Thomas allied himself with the Confederate cause. His choice put him in opposition to his brothers, especially Percival, a career officer in the U.S.
