After the President of our Board of Trustees, the Hon.

William W.Goodrich, had completed his congratulatory address, two of the officers of the church in imitation of the returning spies from Eshcol marched in, "bearing between them on a staff" a capacious bag of silver dollars.

A curiously constructed silver clock is also among the treasured souvenirs of that happy anniversary.
In April, 1885, the close of the first quarter-century of my ministry was celebrated by our church with very delightful festivities.

Addresses were delivered by his Honor Mayor Low, Dr.McCosh, of Princeton, Dr.
Richard S.Storrs, and the Hon.

John Wanamaker, Post-Master General.
