[Croswell recorded that the church is 'next door to the Sailors' Home'] We stopped for the whole service. […] O[rgan]. – Good and well played at the West end of the Gallery. H[ymns]. – Mercer, exchanging for Bickers shortly. It was a fine selection of stirring hymns. C[hoir]. – A few girls etc. in the Congrgation [sic]. There was some fine congregational singing. [The congregation numbered] 300 – […] There was a most interesting collection of people, we being all in the side seats. I saw sailors and some Blacks in the middle. […] M[iscellaneous]. – It is the church for sailors of the Port of London and also for a population of 8,000. The whole was a most musical treat. |
