Presbyterian Cathedral Plan for Washington Draws Clergy Support
Justice J. M. Harlan launches a campaign to back a central Presbyterian cathedral in Washington. He outlines a landmark church with institutional features, adjacent manse, staff, and a work-building, seeking General Assembly endorsement and local funding to secure a national capital presence. He notes competition from Episcopalians, Methodists, and Catholics and proposes a special assembly committee to develop and fund the project. An exhibition of sacred articles and a retreat follow in the Convent of the Perpetual Adoration.
