America, by the Bishop of London, 8th of July, 1764. He succeeded the Rev. Mr. Ogilvie, as pastor of St. Peter's, and served the church until 1768. He then moved to the south, and was appointed, 30 May 1772, rector of Dorchester, Maryland. He died 2d May, 1784, aged 49 years, leaving a wife and seven children ; the survivor of these, a daugliter, is still Uving in Albany. She has portraits of her father, grand fatlier and grand mother, in good preservation.

VI. Rev. Harry Munro, in whose time the church was incorporated, was rector from 1768 to 1773 or 1774. The congregation is represented as consisting of not more than thirty families' which Mr. Munro, in a statement before us, classes thus : -- Attendants, 156 ; Communicants, 44, of which 30 were gained by him or joined the cliurch since his appointment, and he " had all the rest" (he says) " to reconcile or bring back, his predecessor having had but three communicants, wdien he last administered." Baptised since his appointment in Albany, 345 ; Communicants lost by death, removals, &c. 14 ; desertions 4=18. " Three of tliese have left the church because tliey w^ere not permitted to wrest tlie government out of the vestry's hands; the other^ because he could not relish Bishop Tillotson's, Sherlock's & Atterbury's sermons, and because M^ Munro did not preach spiritual Sermons."

The church w^as vacant during the war of the Revolution, though it is stated that service was performed in 1776.2
