...Lloyd as deacon, Suffragan Bishop Shipman as sub deacon. At the beginning of the afternoon an elaborate luncheon was served in the crypt of Synod Hall, after which the remainder of the afternoon was spent in meetings of committees and commissions charged with bringing about the completion of the nave, trancepts and towers of the Cathedral. When evening came along, a procession of clergy was formed in which were represented many sects of Christendom; it composed 100 ministers of other churches, 75 Episcopal clergy from the New York diocese and seven visiting bishops of the Eastern Orthodox Church, resplendent...

Certain features of the finished Cathedral will be unique. The interior of the proposed nave, as designed by Architect Ralph Cram, will have columns 100 feet high-the tallest single columns in existence...

The shell scarred floors were removed recently, revealing the foundations of an ancient jubé, or rood screen. In olden days the jubé was a very heavy wall separating the chancel from the choir and nave, and from a tribune on top of this wall a cleric read the Gospel and Epistle. The rood screens of today serve to ornament the church rather than to separate the clergy from the laity...
