[J. Thomas Scharf (1886)] the erection of a new church edifice, and, finally, pur-chased of the late Martin Smith a piece of land on the northwest corner of Main and Washington Streets, where the Wendle hrick buildings now stand, for the sum of seven hundred and twenty dollars. This, together with the amount required to erect the new church edifice, was obtained principally through the efforts of the Rev. Mr. Underhill, the pastor. The building, however, was not ready to be occupied at the time the congregation had to leave the house in Cortlandt Street, and Mr. Allen Newman, a worthy Methodist brother, allowed the church to worship in his school-room, on College Avenue, just west of Broadway, and next to what is now St. Mark's Epis-copal Church. The room was in the Academy build-ing, which was afterwards transformed into the house in which the Misses Metcalfe now hold the Home In-stitute, a school for young ladies. At the close of 1847 the church numbered fifty-nine members The Rev. Mr. Underhill continued his labors until June, 1849, when he accepted a call to Peekskill. After leaving Tarrytown the Rev. Mr. Underhill died, but his remains were brought back for burial, and now lie in the Baptist Church plot in the Sleepy Hollow Cemetery. The new church building having been completed south of the Andre Brook, in the township of Green-burgh, and in Tarrytown proper, a new registry was made out and recorded April 19,1847.
