[J. Thomas Scharf (1886)] After the separation in 1829, because of differences in doctrinal views, the Hicksite branch retained the house and the Orthodox held their relig-ious services in the house of Moses Sutton until 1845, when the present house 1 near Croton Lake was built. The Hicksite Meeting was afterward discontinued. Another meeting was organized by them at the village of Mount Kisco, about the year 1856, and a meeting-house erected there. This meeting still continues. Bethany Union Chapel. — In the year 1879 the old Presbyterian Church, which had not been used since the dedication of the one presented to the society by F. A.
