Details: To the Editor of the Sydney Gazette SIR, In my letter to you from Newcastle, dated 5th Aug. last, and inserted in the Gazette on the 15th of the same month, I omitted one particular which I now think ought not to pass unnoticed, as it is an article of information which I conceive may not be unacceptable to some persons of the present age, and may perhaps be interesting even to future generations : it is this - the first stone of the Church at Newcastle was laid by the Commandant, Captain James Wallis, of H. M. 46th Regt. on the 1st January 1817, and on the Christmas Day next following, the said Officer having assembled the people for Public Worship, read to them the Divine Service

Details: Christ Church, Newcastle, now about to be demolished, is the oldest church in Australia. It dates from the year 1817 and is one of the public buildings erected during the years of Lachlan Macquarie. The steeple had to be removed in deference to the dread of the congregation that its untimely fall might, one day, precipitate them into the next world in a manner somewhat unceremonious. During the early period to which we more especially allude the steeple remained, however, intact, importing certainly an ecclesiastical aspect to the four square walls, which otherwise might have represented anything. The eastern end of the church is rounded off to form a recess for the Communion table, but this improvement is not shown in the picture in Mr. Dangar s book, and, with the gallery, was probably the offspring of later times. The ground plan is something in the shape of the letter T and over the entrance (there is but one, exclusive of a small door affording entrance to the gallery) appears in the usual oval, similar to students of Gov. Macquarie s public buildings, the inscription - G. E. Erected A. D. 1817. Lachlan Macquarie, Esq., Governor by James Wallis Esq., Captain 46th regt, Commandant. Within this building there is nothing to induce inconoclasm or to inspire the awe of an aesthetic or sensuous admirer of the Ritualistic.....Years have rolled away since then, James Wallis Esq., his subalterns, and soldiers, have all disappeared. Many were not doomed ever to revisit the green fields and pleasant villages of Albion; many left their bones in the graveyard adjoining the church
