Text Box: Church of the Good Shepherd est. 1880 St. Hubert’s Isle Raquette Lake, New York Text Box: PROGRAM Text Box: Photo—Brock Remington Text Box: “Church in the Adirondacks” In 2004 three 1880 photos by Seneca Ray Stoddard were discovered in an 1897 issue of the Architectural Journal. The photos illustrated an article on the works of esteemed architect Josiah Cleveland Cady (1837-1919), solving the mystery of the design of Good Shepherd.. Cady was a finalist in the competition for the Cathedral of St. John the Divine in NYC, the architect of the first Metropolitan Opera House, the Museum of Natural History, 15 buildings at Yale and numerous other churches, including the chapel at the Virginia Hampton Institute, the first college for Native and African-Americans. In December 1880 Cady’s plans for Good Shepherd were modified by William West Durant for use in constructing the Church of Our Savior on St. John’s River in Mandarin, Florida, through the efforts of the author, Harriet Beecher Stowe. And in 1890 Cady designed St. William’s on Long Point, just across the bay from our dock. ~~~~~~~ The Lectern Bible was given in 1880 in memory of “Capt. Gideon Lathrop Formerly of Lake Champlain.” Captain Lathrop (1805-1877) was the father of Helen Elizabeth Stott (1837-1907), and the grandfather of Durant’s first wife, Janet Lathrop Stott (1865-1931). The Reed Pump Organ, built in 1873 by the Estey Organ Company of Brattleboro, Vermont, was donated by William West Durant and likely in the church from the beginning. The Tower Bell was built by the famous Meneely Bell Company of Troy, NY. The Baptismal Font is of unknown origin. A special support had to built under the church floor to support the weight of the solid granite font. The Tiffany Windows were donated in 1883 by Francis and Elizabeth Stott of Bluff Point in memory of two of their ten children. Dora Aborn Stott died at age 10 in 1881 and Lawrence (Laurie) Bradlee Stott at age 12 in 1882.
