Описание: Excerpt from A Historic Sketch of the Parish Church of St. Michael, in the Province of South Carolina: From the Laying of the Corner Stone in 1752 to 1887, With a Roll of Its Rectors and Assistant Ministers; Wardens, Vestrymen; The Original Pew Owners; Inscriptions From the Mural Tablets, &C The first notice we have of anything appertaining to St. Michael's is, in July, when John Culpepper, Surveyor General, is directed to'lay out a Town at Oyster Point, and the site now occupied by St. Michael's, seems to have been reserved for a church, though none was built on it until some years later, when the first St. Philip's was erected. This View of the early laying out of the church-yard is supported by the fact that December 29, some workmen while repair ing the foundations found a coffin just under the first land ing of the stairway to the south gallery and just inside of the southwest pilaster. This coffin was of red-cedar, and the lid was studded with brass tacks which formed the initials J. O. B. And the figures 1678.
