Book excerpt: Excerpt from Sesqui-Centennial History: First Presbyterian Church, Concord, North Carolina, 1804-1954 S we think of the heritage of our church we are thankful that there have been those along the way who have been willing to lend enough of their time and talent to record much of the history of the church. In 1891 Robert \vashington Allison wrote an interesting sketch of the church's history covering the first ninety years. Then in 1904, when the church observed its centennial. Mrs. Richard Sadler Harris wrote and printed a very informative brochure, which included pictures of the former church build ings and many of its former pastors. In 1927, when our present sanctuary was erected, Morrison Harris Caldwell wrote a sketch which contained many items of interest that had not previously been written. This paper was read at the cornerstone dedication and was placed in the cornerstone, along with many other papers. And now, as we are about to observe the sesqui-centennial, Mrs. John Franklin Reed, daughter of Mrs. Harris who pre pared the 1904 history, has prepared and written a very com prehensive and interesting sketch bringing the record up to date. We are grateful to Mrs. Reed for this splendid work. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
