After a brief ministry by The Rev. David Blair, The Rev. Patrick Gray was called to Chalmers. Born in Scotland near Glasgow, he came to Canada about the time of the Disruption in Scotland. Before coming to Kingston, Rev. Gray served in Georgetown and Carleton Place. In Kingston he served with great acceptance to both the congregation and students. His death through illness in 1876 was keenly felt. The congregation showed its appreciation of his life and work by placing a beautiful stained glass window in the south wall of the church.
