Description
Reverend J. F. Boeye, a Fort Worth visitor Thursday saw the Electric Building for the first time and looked back along memory lane to 1901 when he started an 11-year pastorate of the old Saint Paul's M. E. Church, organized in 1877. The church stood on the skyscraper site at 7th and Lamar and was destroyed by fire in 1920. Saint Paul's, a church of the Northern branch, made Methodist history in 1930 when it merged with the First Methodist Church (Southern branch) and preceded by eight years national unification. Reverend Mr. Boeye was en route from California to North Carolina.
