The structure was put up as a Mechanics' Institute( Public Lib- rary) in 1858, At that time there was no tower on the building. The 'auditorium was used for public meet- ings. As it was hear to the Metho- dist Episcopal Church, (then con- ducted in what is now the Primary School) their anniversary entertain- ment was held there. After somé eight . years--in 1866--the building was taken over by the Baptist con- gregation and the tower was built, the work being done by Messrs. Robt. 'MacGregor and Wm. Robinson. It 'was splendidly put together, and so far as it was concerned would have But the timbers in the square entrance were beginning to rot, and it is quite probable that in a very big wind- storm , the underpinning might have given way with disastrous results. The Baptist church boasted of the first choir, and had the first organ, an instrument made by the late J. W. 'Davis, father of Mr. A. J. Davis, and Mrs. Coburn. Through death and removals, the Baptist congregation was "weakened until finally the church had to be closed for lack 8f support, and the property was taken over by the Board 'of Education and used for physieal exercise and household science work. When one studies the way in which the tower was built, it shows thor- ough workmanship and excellent material. When the builders were at the top of the scaffolding used for the erection of the tower, they could see Lake Ontario. Some person who knows the should write the history of this old building, which has stood a silent wit- ness of many changes and develop- ments in Port Perry.
