Got there just as service was beginning. […] O[rgan]. – by Gray, 1825, played by Vicar's son. Instrument old and wheezy. Moved from West to East end. H[ymns]. – Bickers, a dissenting selection. C[hoir]. – "Voluntary". I should think so. It would be dear at any price. Young men and [?] in choir stalls. [The congregation numbered] 160 i.e. 100 downstairs and 60 in the galleries (400 of these free), few poor, a good many elderly persons. S[ermon]. – [I d]idn't stop. […] M[iscellaneous]. – Galleries occupied by badly behaved youths. Penny Reading bills outside. "One penny" boxes in passages. The whole place is like a badly getting on dissenting chapel. |
