Special to The Telegraph
Marietta, Pa., June 17. —To-day the
congregation of Old Donegal Presby
terian Church held its annual reunion.
All day trains, trolley cars, automo
biles and carriages were headed that

interest grows more and more, and
the committees in charge to-day were
well repaid for their efforts, as it was
predicted that the largest crowd In
the history of the events would be
present. The pastor of this church is
the Rev. Frank C. Bossert, who has
in connection with it the church of the
same denomination at Mount Joy.
The first session to-day was held at
11 o'clock presided over by ex-Con
gressman H. Burd Cassel, of Marietta.
The program Included: Invocation,
by the Rev. Frank G. Bossert; ad

heroes of many wars. The ancestors
of ex-President McKinley worshipped
at this church, and some of the des
cendants are buried there.
At 2 o'clock was held the meeting

three years ago to perpetrate the
memory of the old Donegal church,

Rheems, and Miss Mary Summy,
Marietta. t
Donegal Church is the oldest Pres
byterian church of this section. The
great-grandfather of William MclCin
ley was a worshiper here. In the
Revolutionary War, Donegal sent
nearly all its mule members to the
army and seventeen of them held the
rank of colonel, and many minor offi
ces. The congregation was organized
in 1714, when Andrew Galbralth rode
to New Castle on the Delaware, and
asked the authorities of the Presby
terian church that a minister be sent
to this section to establish a church.
Two ministers were sent back with
him to preach.
The first church was built in 1722
from logs hewn in the forest of Done
gal, and the building was verv small.
The congregation grew rapidly and a
new one was started, n 1730 the pres
ent building was erected. The church
is built of ston-> with plaster finish on
the exterior The floor 5s made of
large square red brick, and the work
was all done by the members of the
congregation. The interior was very
plainly finished, the seats were very
high and the backs were twice as high
as the pews of to-day.
In front of the church 1s still stand
ing the huge oak commonly known
as "Witness Tree," due to the fact
that under it the members of the con
gregation took the oath of allegiance
to the thirteen colonies. Under this
tree Alexander Lowery assembled his
troops to go to the battle of Brandy
wine. From time to time the tree
has been trimmed and the wood used
in making trinkets, gavels and other
things, and many visitors secure either
a piece. of bark or a sprig from it. The
local daughters of the American Revo
lutionary some time ago erected a
monument to the memory of the sol
diers buried in the graveyard. The
church is only a short distance from
the home of ex-United States Senator
J. Donald Cameron, and to-day he
was among the guests. The spot is a
mecca for sightseers at any time.
Among the places represented to-day
were Washington, Lancaster, Harris
burg, Philadelphia, York, Rheems,
Elizabethtown, Marietta, Columbia,
Pittsburgh and other places.
