This elegant and tasteful structure was built by Mr. W M Daly, and attests the ppirit and enterprise of those who have united in rearing a temple of worship that is not only adapted to the object to which it is devoted, but possesses the extraneous merit of being conspicuous as an ornament to Ogden. It is constructed in the style of architeture, and stands out in bold relief, displaying to advantage its beautifully modelled proportions, although the spire and other accessories are yet wanting to make it complete in its finish. Mr. William M. Daly, the architect) has shown great skill in preparing the plan and executing it with fidelity. The interior of the church is 82x50 feet in dimensions, the ceiling reaching 18 feet. It is fitted up with neat and comfortable spring seats, in all forty pews, and room left for an addition of more when required. The aisles and the space fronting the pulpit, are carpeted, and all the appointments are made with an eye to harmony and good taste. Rev. L.- - B. W. Long, the popular pastor of the Church deserves much praise for his industry and zeal in advancing the interests of his charge. Dedication, ed semi-goth- ic .
