O[rgan]. – Large, fine, in West Gallery. H[ymns]. – Church Hymns, most insipid. C[hoir]. – 5 middle-aged ladies plus 5 middle-aged gents. arranged in West Gallery. Not my style of church at all. [The congregation numbered] 700 of whom 500 were downstairs and 200 upstairs: dull hymn-books provided. S[ermon]. – Didn't stop; doubtless "gentlemanly". Churchwardens, Lords and "Hons." all round church. Nearly lost my young companion's hat behind hassocks! […] M[iscellaneous]. – The great marriage depot. Old fashioned style of church service. Altar bare. Too little light. Outside I saw the Salvation Army with large numbers. |
