The Second Presbyterian Church of Chicago, June 1St, L842, to June 1St, L892 (Classic Reprint)

At a meeting of the Church and Congregation held December 29, 1886, Messrs. Thomas B. Carter Edward G. Mason and John C. Grant were appointed a committee to prepare an historical sketch of this Church. Mr. Mason, to the sincere regret of the other members of the Committee, did not find it convenient to accept the appointment. Mr. Carter, as the only male survivor of the charter members of the Church, as a member of the Board of Trustees for many years in its early history, anfl as the senior member of the Session, was especially fitted to collect the materials. This he has done with rare perseverance and fidelity; supported by his love for the Church in a labor which has at times severely taxed his strength. Dr. Patterson has kindly answered many questions from the marvelous stores of his ready memory. From the frequent and extended interviews to which he has consented, much has been learned which will be of increasing interest in years to come. No attempt at analysis or deduction has been made in the strictly historical part of this book.
