"When I first went to Virginia, I remember we hung an old sail to four tress to shadow us from the sun; our walls were rails of wood; our seats unhewed tress, til we cut planks; our pulpit a bar of wood nailed to tress. In bad weather we shifted into an old, rotten tent. This was our church till we built a homely thing like a barn. The best of our houses were like this. We had daily prayers morning and evening, two sermons every Sunday, and communion every three months till our minister died." - John Smith
