1929
Pastor was J. H. Olmstead
On Februaiy 7th, 1920, the old Egerton Street Baptist Church was completely destroyed by fire. Then, through the indefatigable efforts of the pastor Rev. A. C. Bingham, now of Vancouver, and the co-operation of a loyal people, the present building rose on the site of the ruins and was dedicated in the fall of the same year. It is now our privilege and joy, this 3rd day of February, 1929, to set apart this beautiful "Warren" organ made by the Woodstock Organ Co. to the praise of God and the glory of his name. During the morning worship service, anthems were sung by William Jackson and Ira B. Wilson. The special sermon was by Professor A. L. McCrimmon, M. A., LL. D. The Gospel Service at 7 p.m. included special music by Chas. Gounod, Henry Gadsby and Mrs. Harold Pyman. October 1929 Calendar Egerton's 25th Anniversary will be held November 3. Rev. C. H.
