Get a good look while you can - this wooden building will be torn down in 1776 and used as firewood. The church members would tell you it was because the British didn't like them much - and perhaps they have a point, because they still don't. The Reverend, Mr. Lathrop. was known for his pro-Rebel sermons and tellingly, he and most of his congregation weren't in Boston in 1776. I wonder why. After the Old North Meeting House was torn down, Christ church inherited the prestigious 'Old North' title, becoming the "Old North Church" that most people know.
