A finely decorated pew for the governors who sat successively in it, was opposite ; and near it there was another pew reserved for officers of the British army and navy. In the west gallery of this first episcopal church, was the first organ Avhich ever pealed to the praise of God in this country ; while displayed along its walls, and suspended from its pillars, afi;er the manner of foreign churches, were es- cutcheons and coats of arms, being those of the king. Sir Edmund Andros, Francis Nicho...lson, Captain Hamilton, and Governors Dudley, Shute, Burnet, Belcher and Shirley. In the pulpit there was an hour glass, accordinsf to the old fashion, mounted on a large and elaborate stand of brass. At the east end there was " the Altar piece, whereon was the Glory painted, the Ten Commandments, the Lord's Prayer, the Creed, and some texts of Scripture. " It was a strange sight among the bare churches of New England. Much that was in it has gone, never to return. We do not desire that it should return.
