Excerpt from History of the First Baptist Church of Cleveland, Ohio, and an Account of the Celebration of Its Semi-Centennial, February 16th-20th, 1883Last Lord's day, January 13, 1833, was a memorable day for us at Cleveland. The large room in which we are accustomed to hold our ser vices was crowded to overflowing, and at the close of the services in the afternoon, the congregation and many others from the village repaired to the bank overlooking the lake, while the little company of Baptists and the candidates continued down to the waterside. After singing an appropriate hymn, and a prayer by Elder Taggart, the candidates went flown into-the water and were baptized in the name Of the Lord Jesus. The day was calm, sky unclouded it was like a summer's day, although in midwinter.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
