- 13 - e subscription was taken up for the purchase of a clock which was placed in the tower of i t. Dunatan's, and which for many years was the only city clock possessed by Ch&rlottetown. Before the interior of the c.iurch was completed a difference of opinion arose between som6 members of the committee of trustees and Mr. Gainsford , which resulted in the resignation of that gentleman. The trustees decided upon making an alteration in Mr. Gainsford 's plan, which alteration is best described in Mr. Gainsford 's own words, taken from a letter written by him to Bishop McDonald on the 8th of May,l&\55« He writes:- "The plan proposes to make the ceiling over the gallery sloping to the nave, in the same manner as the ceiling of the galleries must of necessity be, thereby cutting off the intersecting arches over the galleries? making th . front part, next the nave, have a straight line, lengthwise of it. Thi3 line would necessarily be at the base of the braces on the pillars, sloping thence upwards to the wall piste and reducing the height in front of the gallery, eleven or twelve feet lower than the original plan." After the resignation a" Mr. Gainsford , the work went on according to what that gentleman calls "the strictly utititarian plan", and the result is the unsightly edifice which does duty in Charlottetown as a pro-cathedral. For many years everything in connection with the service and appointment of St. Dunstan's were of the very plainest end most simple style. The heating apparatus consisted of two large furnaces made of brick end plastered over; they are said to have had somewhat the appearance of a style of tomb or monument to be seen in English country churches. To feed them, hugh sticks of '.;ood over four feet in length were employed. Their excellence end efficacy may be judged of by the fact that people were in the habit of putting their hats on the top of these furnaces, where they would safely remain during the tine occupied by 1-uda and sermon. The altar which was subscribed for in l-5^t was built by Mr. Samuel M- rtin.
