The Cathedral Church, commenced in 1793,
was without tower or steeple. The disastrous fire
of 1887 left little of this old building besides
the walls. The work of restoration was carried
out in 1888, at which time large additions were
made. The clock was a gift from Mr. J. Y.
Wilson, a public-spirited citizen. In the Old
Moorish facade hang four bells no longer used,
the smallest of which bears the inscription:
"St. Joseph Ora Pro Nobis A. D. 1682."
This is probably the oldest bell in this country.
