Thursday, November 30, 1815.
The first stone of the foundation of the
Presbyterian Church will be laid this morning by the
Honorable A. Seton, Esquire, Most Worshipful Master of the Provincial
Grand Lodge, &c., &c. The edifice will be erected on the
spot of ground immediately to the Eastward of Writers' Buildings,
and will form in a beautiful close to the long street perspective
seen from the course. The Brethren of the Masonic Lodges in Calcutta
are invited to attend the ceremony. The Church is to bear the
name of the Tutelary Saint of Scotland.
[Note: This is the St. Andrew's Church to
the north-cast of the Dalhousie Square.]
