Excerpt from A Memorial of the One Hundred and Seventy-Fifth Anniversary of Trinity Lutheran Church, Lancaster, Pennsylvania This sketch of "Old Trinity" has been hurriedly gathered, yet with scrupulous care, from every possible source - pamphlet, book and protocol. It is but a running chronicle; deals not with the flowers of the art, but with plain facts. Its preparation has been crowded with increasing interest; and if the reader gets half the enjoyment in scanning its pages as the author did in compiling them, the wage of the work has been met to the uttermost farthing.
