( visit link) "In 1861 the lot at the corner of Lake and Church Streets was purchased. The ground for the foundation of the new sanctuary was broken in the month of September, 1861. On June 13, 1862, the finished sanctuary was dedicated, an event made more solemn because it was the first anniversary of the death of the beloved first pastor, Dr. Murdoch. A tablet in memorial to Dr. Murdoch was placed in the entrance hall of the church, where it can be seen today."
