[estate agent, Blyburgate]
the hour fixed for laying the memorial stone by Mr. Ford Goddard. There was a goodly attendance at this ceremonial, and
fortunately the weather was fine, though a biting cold wind gave an unpleasant reminder of the month. A lilieral display
of bunting adorned the part of the building already erected. The Rev. W. H. Muncaster commenced the proceedings by
reading the contents of a paper which was afterwards deposited in a bottle beneath the stone, as follows:
Esq., of Ipswich, secretary of the Suffolk CongregationaI Union, in the presence of that Union assembled for its annual
meeting at Beccles. The house, which is intended for the use of successive ministers of the Congregational Church at
Beccles, was built by the Mill Land Trustees out of the endowment under their control, and the fund was raised and
supplemented by the free-will offerings of the Church and congregation to the amount of over £300. With this record are
included (1) the programme of the Suffolk Congregational Union meetings, (2) the annual report of the Union, (3) the
current number of the Beccles and London newspapers, and copies of the North Suffolk Congregational Magazine and
Tacket-street Congregational Union. The coins of the realm were not included in this deposit, but were subsequently laid
upon the stone and applied to the practical purpose of fencing and laying out the property for which at the time of
writing a further sum of £50 is required. That this house may be the scene for many generatiens of godly living, sturdy
thinking, patient study, and sympathetic intercourse with those seeking to lead anew the life of Christ upon the earth ;
that no sorrow may descend upon it that God shall not use to enrich the ministry of His servants, and no joys be theirs
which shall not make them better messengers of the glad tidings, is the prayer of the minister of to-day, who in humility
and thankfulness writes this record.”
The stone, bearing the inscription “The Manse, 1891,” was then lowered to its place, and declared to be well and truly
laid by Mr. Goddard, who said he was delighted to do anything that lay in his power to promote the interest of the
Congregational tli Union and the churches connected with it. It was a good precedent, though not the first one by a long
way, set by this Church, in building a manse for its to minister, and it was a matter worthy of the consideration of all free
churches that they should provide a residence for the ministers, especially in rural districts where the people were poor,
that so they might minimise the anxieties, already too great, on the men bearing the banner of the Master in the forefront
rank of the battle. The house ought not to be regarded as part of the salary of the minister, but the day was coming, he
trusted, when it would be a matter of course that the minister should have a proper house to lire in. It was an indication
of the strength and growth of the free churches in this country when they built houses for their ministers. They ought to
be very grateful for the large amount of religious liberty and toleration which they enjoyed as Nonconformists; but he
reminded them they did not ask for toleration only, but for equality — (hear, hear) — not to be levelled down to those
who needed the assistance of the State, but rather that they should be levelled up to them; that they should all be made
equal in social status and position in the country. (Applause.)
The Rev. Muncaster thanked Mr. Goddard for his kind services, and Rev. A. A. Dowsett having implored God’s blessing
upon the work and the house when built, the Doxology was sung and a collection was taken as suggested in the record.
