| Tiffany/Duncan comment: |
Tiffany 1910 calls this the Demarest Memorial Windows (although there is only one), so likely Rev. James Demarest, the pastor of the church from 1890-1898, was the person who organised the window with the Tiffany company [TIFF1910, DUNC1980, EAGLE1902, DEDUCED] |

| Comment: |
The outer panes are similar in style to the 1892 ornamental windows (ITEM:3.39.1.5) and very different in style to the main part of the central pane, so possibly only that dates to 1899 and the rest to 1892 [DEDUCED] |
