Book Description

Excerpt from Charter, Deed of Trust, Constitution, by-Laws of the Almoners, Rules for the Government of the Home, Annual Reports for 1893 and List of Subscribers Having for many years entertained the feeling that it is the Christian duty of all such as have been prospered in their worldly affairs, to do something toward relieving the wants of the poor and unfor tunate, and thus contribute to the general welfare of the community in which he lives, I am moved, now in the time Of excellent health, for which I devoutly thank God, to employ a portion Of my time (if further spared) this and the ensuing year, in erecting for poor Children, chie y females, a spacious and comfortable school building, with apartments for the teachers and a Chaplain (if one should be em ployed) for the occupancy and use of the Parish School of Trinity Church of this City, a corporate institution already existing and in Operation in the Parish of Trinity Church. And on the same grounds (in George street, recently purchased of the Misses Edwards) a convenient, comfortable and appropriate building for the occupancy and use Of the Trinity Church Home Of this City, also a cor porate institution already in successful operation within said parish. And midway between these two buildings a convenient and appropriate Chapel, to be known as, and called Trinity Chapel, for the use and benefit of both the aforesaid institutions all of which, together with the land on which they are erected, I propose to present and convey to the Corporation of Trinity Church, New Haven, in trust, for the use and benefit of the aforesaid institutions.
