There are two old plaques high up on the wall. The upper, larger, one reads: "Wesleyan Day School 1825, Rebuilt 1855". The lower one reads: "Ebenezer, 1 Sam. 7 Chap. 12 ver. Sep.2 1811". (Unusual to have the chapter and verse numbers written before the words "chap" and "ver", rather than after.) 1 Samuel ch.7 v.12 contains the often-quoted words, "Hitherto hath the LORD helped us", explaining the significance of the name Ebenezer = Rock of help. But what is the significance of the date Sep.2 1811? Was there originally also a chapel, called Ebenezer?
