ST LUKE'S (Q.S.).
[A church in Young Street, originally a
Unitarian chapel, was purchased by the
Kirk-session of St George's in 1834, and re-
built. Itwas opened for public worship 28th
May 1837. In 1843 the minister, the twelve
elders, and the trustees joined the Free
Church, retaining possession of the build-
ing. They were, however, ejected on 4th
March 1849, and services in connection
with the Church of Scotland were resumed.
The church and district were constituted a
chapel-of-ease by the General Assembly
in 1841, and erected into a parish by decree
of the Court of Teinds, 11th Feb. 1863.
The district having become depopulated,
an Actgf Parliament (3 Edward VII., cap.
66) was obtained to transfer the endow-
ments, minister, etc., to a new church and
parish to be erected within the city of
Edinburgh. A new church was accord-
ingly built at Comely Bank, and opened
for worship 10th Oct. 1908. The old
parish was reannexed to St George's, and
the new parish (taken chiefly from the
Dean and partly from St Bernard's) was
erected by decree of the Court of Teinds
on 6th Feb. 1909.]
