Book Description
Excerpt from The Bi-Centennial Celebration: Of the First Congregational Church and Society of Bridgeport, June 12th and 13th, 1895 The First Church and Society of Bridgeport - originally the Parish of Stratfield - looked forward to the two-hundredth anniversary of its organization for some years previous with increasing interest. The celebration was carefully planned and most successfully carried out. The decorations of the church were extremely effective; the weather was perfect; the attendance of interested and sympathetic audiences was from beginning to end as great as could be accommodated; the music - rendered by the combined choirs of the First, the Second, the Park Street Congregational Churches, and the Presbyterian Church - was admirable; in short, the occasion seemed to those most concerned to be a delightful one in every particular. It appeared desirable to preserve a permanent record of it. As far as practicable, to do this is the purpose of the present volume. One feature of the celebration was of necessity an incident of the occasion only. By dint of much research and labor, and the contribution of many willing hands, a remarkable loan-collection of relics was gathered and exhibited in the Chapel. The Committee take this opportunity of tendering their hearty thanks to all who lent their aid toward this most valuable and interesting illustration of the history which the celebration commemorated. The proceedings in the several services were stenographically reported by Mr. F. G. Fowler. The lists of members have been compiled by the sub-committee constituted for the purpose - among whom it is not invidious to name Mr. Richard B. Cogswell.

Book Description
Excerpt from Illustrated Programme of the Centennial Celebration in New York, April, 1889: 1789, 1889 How the Centennial Anniversary of the Inauguration of President Washington Will Be Celebrated - Throngs of Visitors from Every State in the Union Will Crowd the Streets - The Harbor Resplendent With Men-of-War and Merchant Marine Rich with Bunting - Military Organizations and Industrial Exhibits in Two Monster Processions - The Magnificent Decorations Which Will Span the Streets Along the Line of March - Arrangements for the Reception of President Harrison as on the Day when Washington Arrived - The Ball at the Metropolitan Opera-House and the Big Banquet - A Valuable Art Exhibit of Old Historic Paintings - The Men Who Have Arranged the Programmes. A programme for the approaching Centennial Celebration of the Inauguration of George Washington was first put forward early in February of 1888, or something more than fourteen months ago. It was a very modest affair compared with the official programme which was finally adopted and printed about ten days ago. It suggested in the first place that the celebration be confined if possible to one day, that is to say, April 30, 1889, pointing out. however, that it might be necessary to have the naval parade in the harbor on the afternoon of the day before. The naval parade, according to this original plan, would be participated in by vessels belonging to the United States and foreign countries, such as France. England, and Germany, which would (still according to the programme) be especially interested in the event. The accent was probably contemplated to fall on England in making this statement. In addition to the naval parade it was proposed to have a grand military parade in which military organizations from the different cities, as well as from New York State and New York City, should be invited to lake part. Other suggestions were as follows: The different trades should also be invited to take part in the parade. Some formal exercises should take place on the steps of the Sub-Treasury, where Washington was inaugurated, and also in St. Paul's Church, where Washington attended service on the date of his inauguration. Possibly in addition some further literary exercises should be held at the Metropolitan Opera-House, including, among other things, an oration and a poem. After the literary exercises were over and the parade had taken place it would be a good idea to have a banquet in the evening which the President of the United Slates and other guests invited should attend.
