Strangely co-incident with the first religious service held in the new colony came also the first death and burial of a young man, Moses Pomeroy. A member of the early settlers' party. On this same Sabbath day, October I, the first Bible Class was formed. On the fifteenth day of the same month a meeting was held to form the First Congregational Church in Kansas Territory, the first church becoming known as the Plymouth Church of Lawrence City. The trustees of the first religious society or parish were Dr. Charles Robinson. S. C. Pomeroy and S. J. Willis.
