And he built hissanct uary like high palaces, like the earth which he hath established for¬ ever.—Pgalmslxxviii, <59. The new Presbyterian church at¬ tracts the attention of a visitor to Griffin as the most modern and hand¬ some’ public structure in the city. This, church was organized by Henry L. Deane in 1841. Rev. Wm. J. Keith became its first regular pas¬ tor in 1849. The present pastor is the Rev. Mal¬ colm McN. McKay, the membership is over 150. The trustees are Henry 0. Burr, chairman; C. H. Osborn, W. W. .Walcott, W. B. Walcott, R. J. Deane, A. C. Sorrell, Geo. B. Mooney, Walter Bate. The following named are the Elders’: H. T. Brawner, Geo. If. Grant, D. H. Pe'den, Dr. Jno. L. Moore, Jno. H. White, A. W. Blake, W. B. Walcott, D. D. Peden. The deacons an if. H. Osborn, Jno. F. Stilwell, A. Lower, J. M. Brawner, R. J. Deane, A. C. Sorrell, T. C. MeLau- rin. The new church building is con¬ structed after the best modern plans and it is a credit to the congregation and to the city. The architect was Jacob Snyder, of Akron, Ohio, and the contractor was Jno. S. West¬ brook, of Griffin. The structure is of brick with cappings and facings of oolitic limestone. The interior of t he church is handsomely finished and the vaulted roof gives the auditori¬ um a grand appearance. Theacoustic properties of the auditorium are said to be perfect. After th^modern plan the auditorium and the assembly room are on the same floor and with large sliding doors that can be thrown back bringing the two rooms together and thus on unusual gath¬ erings adding largely to the seating capacity of the church. The main room will seat easily 300 people. By throwing open all the doors and using all the floor space au audience of 500 could be provided for. There is also a large class rooiri, a ladies parlor and.preacher’s study, and a room with the shelves all arranged for the Sunday school library. These rooms all Open into each other and the vestibule, and when the doors are opened wide it presents in one view the size and beauty of the interior of the building. The building is heated by a furnace. The entire furnishing of the church was the contribution of the ladies and it is beautifully and hand¬ somely done. From the pulpit one •commands a view • of every part of the auditorium, and also of the assembly room. On the left of the pulpit is a Targe raised platform for the choir. The ladies parlor is tasteful¬ ly and well fitted up and in the book¬ case are standard authorities that the pastor may need. The building has a fine location on a lot contain¬ ing three-fourths of an acre. It is Baid that there is only a small debt hanging over the church jand that can be readily raised. , The church was commenced about the 1st of .January, 1888; and com¬ pleted about the 1st of November the same year, at a cost of This congregation own their Church .Manse and provide well for the comfort, of their pastor.
