The Reverend Edwin Wickens Missionary Priest
A!I stories of the beginning of St. Andrew’s indicate that Mr.
Wickens retired after our lit-tle church was organized. Quite the con-
trau is true. Edwin Wickens was only 35 when he served St. Andrew’s
Mission and he continued his work in the Diocese for the rest of his life. He was a preeminent builder of churches and his name is associ-
ated with Denison. Sherman. Weatherford, Decatur, Hillsboro,
Corsican& Round Rock. Tyler, Georgetown and many other Texas
towns and villages. In several, of these he held the first services of the
church_ In some he built churches and served for years as Missionary in charge. He was the founder of the Mission of The Incarnation in
Dalla~ serving as its minister for 11 years until it became a parish, whereulmn he started All Saints (Dallas) and served it 13 years.
He retired from active service in 1911 except for work with two mis-
sions. He moved to Fort Worth in 1913 and was often a patient at All
Saints Hospital and also the hospital’s titular Chaplairt He died July 4,
1918 and two services were held in his honor at St. Andrew’s on July 6,
1918, with Bishop Moore celebrating a Mortuary Eucharist. His stone
in Mr. Olivet Cemetery in Fort Worth reads:
Diligent in Missionary service of the Church
Patient in the endurance of protracted affliction
Faithful in ever}, relation of life
Fervent in spirit serving the Lord
His works do follow him, and he being dead, yet speaketl-t

St. Andrew’s, Fort Worth, had its corner stone laid on the
3lst of December, 1877, and the Bishop (Garrett) commented,
qhe gifted Rector. the Rev. T. J. Mackay, worked with such zeal
and energy that he was able to present the finest church in the
Jurisdiction (with only one exception - St. Matthew’s
Cathedral) for consecration on the fifteenth of AprE"
"This was a most noble work, right nobly done. He has
reared a monument more enduring than bras~ which shall
speak to other ages when our lips are sealed in deatlg
(THE EPISCOPAL CHURCH INNORTHERNTEXA£- Claude A. Beesley, DJ).)
Rel ous Notes We are happy to be able to announce that the opening ser-
vices of the new Episcopal Church will be held today, when
the hours of service will be 1DO ant and 8:00 p.nt. Owing to
the late arrival of the stained glass windows from Chicago,
some few details may be unfinishe< but the general appear-
ance of the church warrants the conclusion that the congre-
gation may well and justly, point to their beautiful edifice, as
the most complete and most beautiful church building in
Northwestern Texas. The windows, from the manufactory of
Misch Brothers, Chicago, deserve special mention~ and will
well repay the closest inspection of our citizens. As works of
art, they are beautiful and chaste, and their silent influence
will be a power in the community, to elevate and educate the
finer instincts of nature. Bishop Garrett will be present to
consecrate the church on Monday morning, when the hour of
service will belO:30. The public are cordially invited to attencL
Seats flee.

THE NEW CHURCH
A sincere desire to have our long-cherished hope of a new church speedily realized has been clearly manifested in the Parish
during the month. The ftrst concerted action was made known to the Vestry at its regular meeting February 5, when petitions
were presented from every Guild in the Parish that the Vestry proceed at once to the undertaking, and over their signatures all the
members promised their vigorous and best support. A Parish meeting was held on the twelftk and it was reported by Senior
Warden, G. W. Burroughs that $1800 had been received in pledges at the meeting, which, added to what was already on han& made
a total of $25,000 subscribed. A portion of the amount reported had been secured during the week by the Senior Warden and
Treasurer, W. "E Humble. They had also received a gift of a ten thousand dollar set of chimes. (EcL: Gift of Edward Disney Farmer)
The report caused great gladness and gratitude. It was decided not to settle upon the cost of the building until a thorough can-
vass could be made of the Parish and city, and in order to carry out this purpose the meeung adjourned untilFriday evening., March
Eiftlz at eight o’clock. St. Agnes Guild pledged one thousand dollars add[rional at its meeting on the I6th, which, with later sub-
scriptions, makes a total (oO about $27,000.00.

Since our last issue there has been considerable activity in the Parish in the way of raising subscriptions for the new Churclz
On Whitsunday after service, a meeting was held in the interest of the undertaking, when the Rector made a report for the
Building Committee, to the effect that the contract for excavating and laying the foundaton had been practically finished, and
desiring further instruction. He suggested that a dub be organized to be known as the 160 Club, each member of which should
agree to give or get $250 by next Whitsunday In this way it was possible to raise the $40,000 which it was estimated would be
required to finish the Church, not induding heating, lighting and plumbtug. The Church could then be consecrated, as there would
be no debt on iL
(~ ANDREWS CALL - June 30, 1909)
STONES FOR THE TEMPE
~Take heed now for the Lord hath chosen thee to build a house for the sanctuary Be strong and do
This is the message
The specifications of the new building call for twenty-seven thousand cubic feet of stone. We will assume that the stone will
be each three feet in length so that there
will be nine thousand separate stones to be
built into the walls. The contractors rough-
ly estimate that it will cost six dollars per
stone when placed in the building.
What a grand and glorious thing it will
be for any of us, when the church is com-
pleted, as we contemplate it. to remember
that we gave at least one actual stone for its
bu d g. This special offering should not interfere
with any offering of money which we have
previonsly made or which we may make in
the future. It should be a special contribu-
tion of stone. Fifty cents per month laid
aside each month for a year will pay for one
stone. It is not muck Certainly not much to
do for Him who has done so much for us.
A list of contributors names and
addresses, together with the number of
stone contributed, should be preserved in
the Parish register and a similar 1Bt, if pos-
sible~ should be deposited in the corner
stone.

ST. ANDREW’ CHURCH The style of architecture adoped for St. Andrew’s Church,
now in process of construction at the corner of Lamar and
Jackson streets, a copy of the sketch which appears in this
issue, is the perpendicular Gothic modified to suit the narrow
and shallow lot upon which it is to be 15uilded. There will be
two main entrances: one on the corner of Lamar and Jackson,
through a stone portico and having openings to both streets;
the other will be through a similar portico on the south side
of the main front on Lamar street. The extreme width of the
interior, including nave and side aisles‘ is sixty-two feet; and
the depth from the main front wall in the west to the rear wall of the sanctuary will be ninety-four feet.
In addition to this width there will be two transepts of fifteen feet depth by a width of twenty-four feet. The rear walls of these transepts wttl form the line separating the chancel from the nave. The depth of the chancel is fifteen feet, that of the sanctuary fourteen feet. Width of the nave proper will be thirty-five feet. This will be flanked on each side with a row of four clustered Gothic columns supporting the clere story. These columns will be approximately twenty feet ~ surmounted by appropriately carved Gothic capb tats which will form the spring line of the arches supporting the clere story wall The clere story wall will be perforated with Cathedral giass windows affording light for the nave, and ventlatiort The side aisles will have a width of thirteen and a half feet ead¢ The main cefling of the nave will have a height of approximately fifty-eight feet in the clear at the apex and will be designed with open timber work forms exposing the actual trusses which win support the roof, and which will be properly treated architecturally for the purpose
intended. The ceiling of the side aisles will terminate below
the clere story windows and will be apptoximately twenty-
eight feet high. The width of the sanctuary and chancel will
be the same as that of the nave. The architectural treatment
of the nave, such as columns, arches and ceilings, will be con-
tinuous from the front wall of the west to the rear wall of the
sanctuary, thus giving the impression of all depth possible,
and relieving the unpression of shallowness caused by the
limited depth of the lot. The choir stalls will be situated on
each side of the chancel and facing the center of the chancel
and at the termination of the side isles.
The organ will be situated in the space occupied by the
arch on the Epistle side of the chancel and over the stalls of
the choir on that side, the console being at a convenient place
near the st~is. Sufficient space will be allowed for persons at
the chancel rat[ to return to their seats in the nave and
transepts through the side aisles.
The Rector’s study will be located at the east end of the
building and at the side of the sanctuary. It will be enclosed
with paneled wood partitions. In the corresponding space on
the north side of the building will be the vesting room; the
two rooms being connected by an ambulatory behind the
reredos. In one corner of the vesting room will be a fireptoof
vault, one of the compartments of which will be used for the
Holy Vessels, another for Parish records, etc..
The choir rooms, toilets, sexton’s room, heating and fuel
rooms will be in the basement, which will occupy the entire
east end of the building back of the transepts.
The choir will assemble in the basement, and ascending a
flight of stairs will enter the vesting toon~ whence they may
proceed through the north side aisle to the west front of the
nave, thence up the middle aisle to the stalls; or they may go
directly from the side aisle to the front of the chancel In case
entrance is desired from the front of the buildiug, they may
pass out of the vesting room through the door leading into
Jackson street on the nortl~ thence to the door in the bell
tower, and up the middle aisle.
In order to have the Baptistry as near the main entrance
as possible, a special bay will be built adjoining the entrance
portico and opening into the north side aisle by means of an
arctz The Baptistry will be eight feet wide by nine and a half
feet deep, with Cathedral glass windows on two sides and
floored with white marble tile. The floor will be raised one
step above the floor of the side aisle, and sufficient space will
be provided for the accommodation of sponsors or witness-
es. The arch forming the entrance into the Baptistry will have
bronze railing and gate. The font will rest upon a platform of
white marble.
Ordinarily the side aisles will contain no pews; the pews
in the nave extending only to the columns separating the
nave from the side aisles. When occasion requires, portable
pews will be placed in the side aisles, allowing sufficient pas-
sageway. The nave and transept wil! seat ordinarily about five
hundred, but by utilizing all possible space when exegencies
arise, the full seating capacity is estimated at eight hundred
and fifty.
The interior treatment may either be a combination of
warm colored pressed brick and terra cotta wails, relieved
with a wainscoating of impervious brick about five feet higI-k
all wood trim and open timber work iri ceiling finished in

dark English oak; or sand finished plaster, tinted in warm
tones to harmonize with dark oak finish.
The key note to the interior design will be a rose win-
dow above the reredos about fourteen feet in diameter with
a center panel nine feet in diameter. In this latter space will
be erected a specially designed glass, depicting the Call of St.
Andrew.
In each of the north and south transepts will be a large
window one representing the Birth. the other the Crucifixion
of our Blessed Lord. The large triple window in the west
front will be subdivided into two panels by means of stone
tracery between the upper and lower sections. These two
windows will represent the Resurrection and Ascensiott
The reredos will be designed to extend from the floor of
the sanctuary to the capitals of the columns supporting the
clere story, and will be built of heavily paneled oak of Gothic
desigr~ On each side of the reredos will be an extention of
similar design forming the lower walls of the sanctuary and
separating it from the ambulatory,
Regarding the exterior treatment the intention is to use local Texas limestone of soft grey color laid up in random coursed ashlar, trimmed with molded buttresses, caps, cor-
nices, water tables, and label molds around entrances and arches. All roofs are to be covered with heavy Bangor slate.
The bt~ding will be equipped with a modern steam heat- ing plant and lighted with specially designed gas and electric combination fixtures.
One of the most important items of good buildng has received special attention, namely the foundations, which are designed of reinforced concrete, according to the most mod- ern theories of constructiort Provision has been made in the main tower to support the set of chimes which has been pre- sented to the Parisl¢

CONTRACT AWARDED
On Frida7 evening, September 3, a Parish meeting was
held in the Parish House at the request of the Building
Committee ... It was explained that the bid of $73,000.00 by
W~ Miller Sons & Co. of Pittsburgh, P~, that was made in
Julg on the basis of Leuda stone, and $1,500 more for
Carthage, Mo. stone, had not been accepted by the commit-
tee and that since that time the cost of material had
advance� and the bid had been increased $5,000. Even with this increase, the committee had learned, from capable and
disinterested parties, that $79,500 for a building of Carthage
stone according to our plans and specifications, was several thousand dollars less than could be reasonably expecteck and
well worth the price. Accordingly the committee had award-
ed to Wm. Miller Sons & Co. the contract for the building at
$79,500.00 to be of Carthage stone and according to plans
and specifications furnished ..... The contract price does not
include heating, lighting or plumbing
.... It developed that the total amount on hand in casl~ lien
notes, pledges, and real estate amounted to $53,500.00, which would leave about $26,000.00 to raise. Estimating the
cost of completing the building, it was stated that we should
need for that purpose about $40,000.00. This amount would
finish the entire structure and could be raised by the time
the work is done, ff each one does his full share. There should
be no debt, and need be none, and when the bt~ding is fin-
ished, it should be ready to present to the Bishop for conse-
cratort

OPENING SERVICE
Long before the hour for the opening service the congre-
gation began to gather and though many extra chairs and
seats and settees were brought into the building and all avail-
able space fillect still these were not sufficient to accommo-
date those who desired to enter. The entire block was crowd-
ed with interested persons who wished to worship in the
new Temple. Several hundred were turned away for lack of
room. More than a thousand sought entrance.
To the Parish Choir was added Trinity’s, crucifers for both
choirs serving;, LeRoy Shuman for St.
Andrew’s. Albert Bevin for Trinit~,’s. The
processional was "The Church’s One
Foundation~’ Bishop Garrett spoke the
first words of public service in the new
churclt "The Lord is in His HoIy Temple;
let all the earth keep silence before Him~’
The Bishop preached the sermon_ It was
an earnest and thoughtful appeal to his
hearers that they labor and strive to mani-
fest that they are children of Go~
Immediately after the sermon, the Rector
announced the need of a large offering in
cash or note~ payable in ninety days, blanks
for which would be distributed~ in order
that pressing obligations of indebtedness
on the building might be meL The offering
amounted to two thousand doliar~
That nighL the church looked magnif-
icent. A good congregation was present.
Just before the sermon, an old mar~ tot-
tering with weakness and showing that
he had suffered much during some weeks
spent in All Saints’ Hospital, spoke of
"Looking Backward and Looking
Forwarc~’ He told of the early days of the
church in Fort Worth~ when the people
worshiped in a small brick building" paint-
ed red on the outside and blue on the
inside‘ with blue calico for blinds and blue
hangin~ which made the congregation
look blue‘ and the preacher bluest of ~
The old man with earnestness told the
people that ~ building is a Churck not a
place for amusement or pleasure, but ever~
inch a church_ It is a church foreve~ and
there may come here to worship not only those who believe in
the American Churct~ but also all kindreds and nations. All may
come to worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness’?
With a few words of benedictiork the old man sat down
and remembered that he was the first Missionary to hold ser-
vices regularly in this city.

THE ALTAR
The altar is composed of two parts: the Lord’s table and
reredos, the marble behind the altar that forms a background
and supports "The Last Supper". The table is of marble with
carved designs in three panels across the front. The top is a
solid slab, without seam or joint, morn than eight feet long
and three feet wide. It is carved from the famous Bianco
Charm marble found in the Carrara quarries near Milar~ Italy,
and is almost more bluish gray than white, with darker veina
It is considered the most beautiful marble in the worlck
(Michelangelo’s sculpturing was carved from it.)
The center of the reredos or background of the altar com-
mands immediate attentiort It is a reproduction of Leonardo
da Vinci’s "Last Supper" done in high relief, carved from the
beautiful Carrara marble by the Italian sculptor, Armando
Battelli, in Pietrasanto in northern Italy, (Pieattasanto means
"holy rock".) According to da Vinci, the figures represent.
from left to right: Bartholomew, James the Lesser, Andrew,
Judas Iscariot. Simon Peter, John, Jesus Christ, Thomas, James
the Greater, Phihp, Matthew, Thaddeus, and Simon the Zealot.
The marble backdrop has a Celtic cross and lace-like
spires rising 19 feet to a position just below the base of the
Rose Window, facing the congregatinrt
The Lord’s table below has five crosses on the flat surface
symbolizing the five wounds our Lord received, two crosses
at either end of the table and one in the center. In the center
front is a sunken cut-out section containing a small tile
believed to be an "encaustic tallle" excavated from the ruins
of the famous medieval Glastonbury Abbey, It was presented
by Miss Helen Raley, who stated in a letter that it was a "most
eloquent though mute and rugged relic of the ancient falt_h_"
In another letter, this one written by the Rev. Ramage’s
widow to Mrs. Homer A. JudcL we get more informatior~ "The
box containing the relic bears the name of Herbert Sk~rme,
the English artist who designed the altar and reredos we are
about to get, and the authenticity of the tile is attested to by
Mr. E Bligh-Bond, honorary diocesan architect of Bath and
Wells (England) from whom Miss Raley procured it."
On the left, the Epistle-side of the reredos is a sheaf of
wheat symbolizing the communion bread and also symboliz-
ing Christ, the Bread of Life. An inscription below this,
memorializing Mr. Ramage~ reads: "Born August 8, 1860,
Rector of this parish 1897-1916, entered into life eternal Sept.
30, 1927. Thanks be to God which giveth us the victory
through our Lord Jesus Christ:
On the right. Gospel-side, are the vine and grapes. Christ
said, "I am the vine; you are the branches:’ The grapes sym-
bolize the consecrated wine, the blood of Christ.
At the bottom of the altar table are three panels: the cen-
ter depicts the Lamb with a cross against his shoulder.
"Behold the Lamb of God~, John the Baptist said, proclaiming
Jesus the Messiah (John [36). The sacrificial lamb, inherited
from Jewish ceremony, becomes the Lamb of God when the
cross of victory is addeck
In the right-hand panel are two letters of the Greek alpha-
bet (Chi Rho) resembling our X and P. The first symbol cor-
responds to the English "Ch" and the second, the English "R",
forming the first three letters of the word "Christ".
At the left are three Latin letter~ I.H.S., perhaps the most
common of all symbols found in churches today, used long
before English was spoken. The "I" is the initial for the Latin
word meaning "of men"; and the "S", the initial for the Latin
word Savior. This is translated: "Jesus Christ, the Lamb of
God, which taketh away the sins of the world:’
The inscription on the ledge upon whch the cross and
candelabra stand, reads: "My flesh is Meat indeed, My blood
is Drink indeed." (John 6:55)
A marble altar such as this, or one made of stone, repre-
sents rocky Calvary. The altar is raised on three steps, repre- senting Father, Son, ~d Holy Spirit; and also to teach the
need of (I) faith,(2) hope and (3) love, for receiving the soul-
benefits of the sacrament. The service of Holy Communion is
the most distinctive and significant act of Christian worship,
offered as a memorial to Christ, who said, "Do this in remem-
brance of me."
