This is the site of the Third Congregational Church. "The Old South Meetinghouse, Time Worn and Gray, That Stood Fronting East, by the King's Highway That Goeth To Billingsgate," so runs the phrase in quaint old records of olden days. Herman Doone 1830
The stone of Deacon Samuel Doane reads "Death is a debut to nature due; as I have paid it so must you."
