Mr. Rowe, a printer at Hampton Institute, began the Sunday School with three Newtown children, in a small section of his home. The Sunday School became so popular that they needed more space to hold the Bible sessions.

Where I used to play on the green.
And the gates of this Chapel were shut,
And Thou shalt not writ over the door;”
