FIRST PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH, 65 Park P1., is a limestone structure with a large clock on the tower. Of a style that may be classified as Romanesque, the barrack-like structure does not compare with the fine Colonial church of classic Greek design that it replaced. The earlier building served as a hospital for Continental troops.
Approximately 150 soldiers.
are buried in the old cemetery where stones date back to 1728. A plain marker indicates the GRAVE OF GENERAL JOHN DOUGHTY, who became the third commander in chief of the United States Army.
