Synopsis
Excerpt from History of Knox Church, Dunedin: Prepared by Request of the Office-Bearers
And get the lips they loved unborrowed bread. This conviction was widely prevalent in the Free Church of Scotland, and found expression in the labours of her Colonial Committee. Some years ago the Committee wrote asking to be furnished with memoirs of our congregations as a valuable con tribution to the Church history of the future; and with the view of furthering the project I put myself in communication with ministers and others in the colony, but, I regret to say, with indifferent success. In prospect of the opening of New Knox Church the subject was brought under consideration, with the result that in 1876 Dr Hislop, one of the elders, undertook at the request of the office-bearers to write a memoir of Knox Church - a work which he performed most satisfactorily.
The prospect of the extinction of the debt on the church at the close of 1891 - now happily effected, largely through the labours of Mr Andrew Cameron, one of the elders - being properly regarded as an event of great importance in our congregational history, the office-bearers asked Dr Himp to recast his memoir and continue it to the present time.
