br. Winn lounded, owned and edited the ■■Richmond Journal 01 i'ractice, ' continuing as owner and editor for twenty-hve years. He is the author ot many articles upon ob- stetrical subjects that attracted marKed at- tention both at home and abroad. Among these may be named; ■'ireatment 01 iiclampsia, ' -Rrophylactic Lare ot the Breasts, Technique ot forceps Delivery" and ■ J^urgical intervention. ihis latter word, intervention, was suggestion by Dr. V\ mn instead ot the misnomer, •inter- ference, with the result that ■' Surgical in- tenerence is now seldom oDservea in cur- rent medical literature. A more recent article, and a valuable contribution ot med- ical literature is his 'R-cport 01 One thou- sand Cases in Students Out-door Service, &c." Ihis report, containing the notable record ot but hve deaths and not one of these from preventable mtection, attracted wide attention, as these cases were all located among a poor class ot patients, sur- rounded by unsanitary conditions, 'i his re- port was published m the ■■Journal of the American iViedical Association" tor October 3, 1903.

Rev. Frank Talbot McFaden, D. D. Since the organization of the l^rst Presbyterian Church of Richmond, June 18, 1812, seven ministers, regularly ordained and installed, have served the congregation as pastors. As a matter of historical interest and value the following names and facts are given. The first was John Holt Rice, under whom the first congregation of fourteen members was organized and the first church building erected between Twenty-seventh and Twen- ty-eighth streets. Jn 1816 the ■'Pine Apple" Church was erected between Seventeenth and Eighteenth streets, but later was sold to the Protestant Episcopal congregation. Dr. Rice served the congregation eleven vears, during which time there were two hundred and sixty-three members received. The second pastor, Rev. William Jessup Armstrong, was installed October 13, 1824, and served for ten years, three hundred and sixty-nine members having been received into the church. During this period, about 1830, the third house of worship was erected on the north side of Franklin, between Thir- teenth and h^ourteenth streets. In July, 1834, the church called its third pastor, Rev. W'illiam Swan Plumer, who served the church twelve years, receiving three hun- dred and sixty-nine members, but left the congregation with but three hundred mem- bers, the controversy between the Old and New School parties disrupting the church. On November 28, 1847, Dr. Thomas Vernon Moore was installed the fourth pastor, his term of service exceeding all others and ex- tending over a period of twenty-one years. During his pastorate, in 185 1, the fourth church edifice was built, at the corner of Tenth and Capitol streets, a larger and more handsome structure than any of the others and the home of the congregation until April 17, 1884. The site is now covered by the present city hall, an arrangement being made with the city by which the building was taken down and rebuilt without any change in plan on the lot on which it now stands on the corner of Madison and Grace streets. In 1859. under Dr. Moore, an organ was first placed in the church, and during the intervening years this instrument has led the music of the congregation and still occupies its place in the church, though a
