Wellington County Methodists 1825-1925
  Year Book 1901

Watchnight 1900The church joined with the other Methodist Churches of the city in union evangelistic services last October (1900) to mark the Twentieth Century movement. The Watchnight service to mark the incoming of the twentieth century was attended by 500 people, and was season of great profit.

Rev. F.A. Cassidy, M.A., was invited to remain a third year as pastor of the church and was reappointed by the Conference. In order to present a full yearly statement of finances to the May district meeting, it was decided to close the financial year on April 30 instead of May 31, as heretofore; the accounts accordingly cover only eleven months this year. Mr. John Crowe was the lay representative of the board at the District meeting, while Dr. Mills, Mr. Crowe, and Judge Jamieson, were the lay Conference representatives
