Among items of interest: Turbot á la créme baked in layers Beauregard Eggs visiting from points south Dolly Varden Cake a still-circulating tribute to a character from Dickens Ripe Currant Pie Hickory Nut Macaroons and Crab Apple Ginger. ~ At the turn of the eighteenth century the townspeople of Hartford supported three Congregationalist churches: First Church Second Church now South Church and Third Church today known as First Church of East Hartford. In 1711 approval was obtained to create a parish in the West Division and by 1713 a Fourth Church stood at what is now the corner of Farmington Avenue and Main Street. Several meeting houses would accommodate members in succession there and later on the opposite corner of the intersection. ~ After the separate incorporation of West Hartford in 1854 the fourth parish became the First Church of the new town. In June of 1882 a Gothic Revival edifice of Monson granite - Greystone Church - was dedicated noted for its grand stained glass windows and the pipe organ which had been salvaged from its predecessor across the street. One of its rooms served as West Hartford's Free Library until 1917 when the church's books were relocated to form the nucleus of the Noah Webster Public Library's collections. Which is to say that Greystone Church had become integral as a landmark of the town. One that perished sadly in a tumultuous fire in early January 1942. ~ Fine in publisher's light brown wrappers titled in darker brown backed in brown cloth. Scarce.
