    _____________

    "... On the 18th day of June, 1812, President Madison declared war against England. This placed the Pennsylvania people in a very trying position and as they could not be induced to take up arms, they were pressed into service as teamsters and were obliged to furnish their own horses. Ox-teams were employed when no horses were to be had. Those who were required to serve in this capacity were Christian Schneider Jr., Peter Erb, Joseph Eby, Samuel Eschelman, Benjamin Springer, Frederick Herner, Jacob Bock, Henry Pannebecker, John Scheirich, Henry Wismer, John Biehn, Adam Shupe and Wildfong.

    In January, 1813, General Proctor defeated the Americans near Detroit, capturing General Wilkinson with 500 men. In September General Harrison having been joined by a fierce body of riflemen from Kentucky, advanced towards Detroit in such force that General Proctor crossed the Detroit River and retreated up the Thames. On being followed by the American Army of 3500 men, he made a stand at Moraviantown with 800 British and 500 Indians under Tecumseh. This warrior was killed, and Proctor retreated in great confusion to Burlington Heights in order to join the Niagara Army. A number of the Waterloo people were up at the battle on the Thames. These Waterloo boys acting as teamsters had taken shelter in a swamp near by while the battle was being fought. An officer of the British army, seeing that all was lost, gave them warning, said 'Boys, all is lost, clear out and make the best you can,' upon which some ran, while others unhitched their horses and rode off for their lives. Christian Schneider Jr., who carried the money-safe on his wagon, cleared out on his horses, leaving the wagon with all its contents behind. In this defeat old Adam Shupe was taken prisoner by the Americans. He was taken before General Harrison who, perceiving his innocent and harmless appearance, dismissed him and granted him permission to return to his Canadian home. He lost both his horses and wagon. Christian Schneider was away the greater part of the summer. On his first trip he had a two-horse team. After being home a few weeks he had to go again, this time with a four-horse team. During this war which lasted a little more than two years, quite a number of small battles were fought in the Niagara Peninsula and in the vicinity of Detroit. Quite a few of these Pennsylvania Dutch boys were pressed to serve as teamsters and exposed to all manner of danger, but strange to say, not one lost his life through the war.

    On the 24th of December, 1814, peace was made between England and the United States, leaving each in exactly the same position as they had been before the war. After peace was restored the government of Canada fully compensated those teamsters for their losses during the war and for their valuable services. Christian Schneider Jr. was paid $5.00 a day for the time he served with a two-horse team, and $8.00 per day for a four-horse team, besides they were paid for horses and wagons that were lost during the time they served the government."

    Stanley Park United Brethren in Christ Church

    A United Brethren in Christ missionary, Rev. Israel Sloan, is reported to have organized a class in Berlin in 1855. The Berlin congregation later, c.1875, bought a small frame church at the corner of Benton and Church Streets which had been built in 1841 by the Wesleyan Methodists for their own use.
    There was a split in the United Brethren in Christ Church in 1889 which resulted in two groups each calling themselves the United Brethren in Christ. One group joined the Congregationals in 1906. The other group remained United Brethren in Christ until November 16, 1946 when most congregations of the United Brethren in Christ organization joined with the Evangelical Church to form the Evangelical United Brethren Church, later to join with the United Church on January 1, 1968. The Stanley Park congregation is one of three United Brethren in Christ Churches in Waterloo County today. The others are New Dundee and Roseville. The headquarters of the church is in Huntington, Indiana.
    After the split in 1889 land on Church Street was donated to the congregation by one of their number, Moses Eschleman. The congregation held services in a frame house on the property until 1893 when a large brick church was built at 35 Alma Street. The church was named Alma Street Church of the United Brethren in Christ (Uttley 1937: 140). (Alma Street is now Charles Street.) A sod turning ceremony was held on March 15, 1970 for a new church on Dreger Avenue in Kitchener. The first service in the new church was held on August 9, 1970; dedication services were conducted on November 29, 1970 by Bishop Clyde Meadows from the Church headquarters in Huntington, Indiana. Rev. Keith Nicholson was pastor when the new Stanley Park United Brethren in Christ Church was built in 1970. The Alma Street church was sold in 1970 and is now the International Gospel Centre.
