    The present church built in 1795, only a one story building at first, with no steeple or bell; later on raised to it's present height and a bell procured.
    Deacon David McEwen told the society that if they would get a bell so heavy that he could not lift it, that he would give them $100, to help improve the church; they procured one that weighted 700 lbs. but he raised it with a lever and struck it with a hammer so that it rung, but as they came so near to following his directionm he gave them the hundred dollars. Deacon McEwen died in 1842 aged 66 yrs.
