[Died 10 Oct 1862 25y 11m 8d]

Mrs. Elihu Bone, Mrs. Robert Bone and Mrs. Jacob Schnapp prepared the communion elements for ninety years. In a very early day these were served on a long table around which the communicants gathered. Later they were served in the pew from a plate and cup. At the present day an individual communion set, the gift of Mrs. Henry Colby, is used.
