Rev. George Starkweather Pratt, 72nd year. Funeral from All Souls' Church
Rev. Pratt started as an American Baptist minister but changed denominations to become an Episcopalian. He was pastor of the First Baptist Church of St. Albans and the following is written of him: "Rev. George S. Pratt...commencing labor April, 1878, and continuing till March 13, 1887--a period of aggressive, vigorous work on the part of both pastor and people. In January 1879, a series of well-sustained meetings, continuing ten weeks, resulted in the accession of fifty-one members; forty-one by baptism. May 10, 1883, the church edifice was destroyed by fire, and about three years later a new church edifice had been dedicated, and a parsonage built at a cost, in round numbers, of $3,500. From this pastorate Mr. Pratt went over to the Episcopalians."
