The bell that rang two years later when Bishop John Strachan consecrated first church tolled again yesterday as Lieutenant-Governor Pauline McGibbon unveiled a plaque designating area an historic site. Canon E. R. Bagley (left) applauds in front of present Anglican church; built on site in 1893; and enlarged in 1919.
