SHEFFIELD-HUNTINGTON CO. everybody Welcome, Americas, Georgia. THE AMERICUS DAILY TIMES-RECORDER, SUNDAY, SEPTEMBER 29, 1507 of the New York of the early nine teenth century. Much of the church’s distinction is due to the re markable personalities of two of its rectors, the Rev. Thomas H. Peters and his son, the Rev. Dr. John. P. Peters,,, the present rector. At a time when there was no other churches, of any denomination, in the upper west side, it was the idea of the elder Dr. Peters that he was the missionary to that entire district, if there were any sick, St. Michael's must care for them. The dead were buried at the expense of the congre gation whenever the family of the de ceased was too poor to meet the ex pense. No distinction was made as to creed, and Catholics and Metlio odists were often seen kneeling side by side at St. Michael’s alter rail. In pursuance of the charitable policy of the rector, the “Sheltering Arms” was founded by the parish, and its industrial home has become famous throughout the country.
