Vicar Arthur L. Bumpus reported that the Sunday School of our mission Church of the Ascension had on its books 500 children, of whom about 300 attended on a given Sunday. The Rev. Bumpus, who was born 1871 in Quincy MA, son of Judge Everett C. B.,  graduated Harvard College in 1891, and joined the Rev. Edward L. Atkinson at Ascension in 1899.  He eventually became rector of Trinity Church on Long Island NY, where his funeral was held in 1926.
