Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Sketch of the Congregational Society and Church of East Granby Conn
The following sketch, which was read at that time, had been read in part at an old home Sunday three years previously.
The illustrations include a plot of the Society drawn in 1793 and photographed some years since from the original then in the possession of B. Pinckney Clark; the pewter beaker, believed to be the first communion cup of the church, made by Thomas Danforth probably about 1740; a britan nia ware chalice from the communion service in use until 1886 the pitch pipe used in the old church by Coach Carter and in the present church by Gurdon C. Gould when serving as choir leader. The report of the seating committee in 1826 has been inserted as an item of interest.
