The Charge to St Peter. Window in Lady Chapel dedicated to first Bishop of Adelaide, Augustus Short, created by Powell & Sons, London. “Yea, Lord; thou knowest that I love thee. Feed my lambs. Feed my sheep. Follow thou Me.” [John 21: 15-19]

 

“There are-three-stained-glass windows in the walls of-the chapel. That on the left depicts the charge to St: Peter, and is ‘Dedicated to the Rev. Augustus Short, D.D., first Bishop of the diocese of Adelaide, in commemoration of the 25th anniversary of his episcopate, St. Peter's Day: A.D. MDCCCLXXII’. . . executed by Messrs. J. Powell & Sons, of-the Whitefriars glass works, London, to replace those which were built in the original chancel wall, and which were presented on its demolition to other churches.” [Advertiser 30 Mar 1904]

 

THE LADY CHAPEL

Consecrated 7 Apr 1904, architect Mr.-E. J: Woods. When the chancel wall was demolished, the 2 triple windows (created by Wailes & Co 1876) were removed and given to Holy Trinity Adelaide and St Bartholomew’s Norwood. The new apse formed the Lady Chapel, funds being donated by Priscilla Simms in memory of her husband Dean Alfred Simms. Three new triple windows designed by John William Brown of Powell & Sons, Whitefriars were donated by Robert Barr Smith. The 2 windows removed had been dedicated to Bishop Augustus Short and Dean James Farrell & his wife Grace Montgomery; as are two of the new windows in the Lady Chapel.

 

“The builders are now engaged in laying the foundations of the lady chapel that is to be built behind the Cathedral out of a donation made by Mrs. Alfred Simms. Already the great north-western wall of the Cathedral has been pulled down, and the men have nearly finished excavating the vestries beneath the chapel. Two massive stone piers, three lofty archways, and a reredos 30 ft. high, will occupy the site of the old wall. The lady chapel will be in the shape of an octagon. It is to be built of Teatree Gully brown stone, with Murray-bridge freestone dressings.” [Advertiser 7 Feb 1903]

“The walls of the chapel are built mainly of brick, faced on the inside with dressed Murray River freestone, and externally with Teatree Gully freestone.” [Chronicle 2 Apr 1904]

 

“The question of stained glass for the central window was settled by Mr. Barr Smith generously offering to be responsible for the expense. Then a difficulty arose. Owing to the improvement in the art of staining glass which has taken place during the last quarter of a century, and other causes, the central window would be so greatly superior to those between which it would be placed that the harmonious effect of the whole would, be destroyed, and it would seem hardly on honour to the memory of Bishop Short and Dean Farrell that they should be represented by windows which would appear so inferior. The question then resolved itself into how to preserve the memorials to the late Bishop and Dean, and at the same time get over the difficulty which the stained glass presented. Mr. Barr Smith again generously came to the rescue, and offered to give new glass for all three windows, stipulating in the most emphatic terms that the two side windows were to be memorials to the late Bishop Short and Dean Farrell, and should bear the same inscriptions as at present.” [Register 1 Dec 1900]
