Historic St. Margaret’s.

St. Margaret’s, Westminster, where the British house of commons at- ( fended service on the anniversary of the declaration of the war, has the misfortune of being reduced to relative Insignificance as a. building by its mighty neighbors, St. Stephen’s and Westminster abbey, says Christian Science Monitor. It would look immense in a country town and something approaching a cathedral in a village. St. Margaret’s fn the days when Cromwell ruled at Whitehall was patronized by a number of devout members of the Long parliament, who used regularly to attend service at six o’clock in the morning to hear the seven preachers who officiated in rotation for salaries of £3OO each. The west window was presented by a number of Americans in memory of Ra.leigh.
