Sun's Play

Pics taken at St. Mary's Church in Fort St. George - Madras. St. Mary's Church was built in 1678-80, was the first English Church in Madras, and is the oldest surviving British Church in India. There are reminders in the Church of Clive, who was married here in 1753, and of Elihu Yale, the early Governor of Madras who later found the famous American University bearing his name. (Now that was surprise to me also !!)
