Ninety-one years ago this month, members of St. Paul's Church in The Dalles were busy planning the fiftieth anniversary of the construction of the church at 601 Union St. The Golden Jubilee took place June 14 and 15, 1925 at both St. Paul's Church and the civic auditorium. Note that this occasion also marked the seventieth anniversary of the first Episcopal service in Eastern Oregon, conducted by Rev. MacCarty in 1855 at Fort Dalles. This gathering also served as a fundraising event for the construction of a "much needed parish house." You will also note the involvement of Florence Vause, Anne Lang, and Lulu Crandall in the planning of the Reminiscence meeting. Take a look at this month's History Mystery for a closer look at the life and work of Lulu Crandall.
