I have seen in several sources the building which stood at Tarragona and Intendencia from 1870-1881 referred to as the third building on that site;  however, according to Lelia Abercrombie's [http://fulltext10.fcla.edu/DLData/SN/SN00154113/0037_003/37no3.pdf "Early Churches of Pensacola" (p. 454)], the 1858 fire damaged but did not destroy the building.  Are they simply calling the repaired building a second building or was there some previous event?

More importantly, there is a conflict of dates regarding the second fire.  One source, F. W. Hoskins' [http://fulltext10.fcla.edu/DLData/WF/WF00000044/file19.pdf "History of Methodism in Pensacola" (p.77)], says the second fire took place in 1864.  However, Lelia Abercrombie's [http://fulltext10.fcla.edu/DLData/SN/SN00154113/0037_003/37no3.pdf "Early Churches of Pensacola" (p.454)] puts the date at 1862. <span style="font-variant:small-caps; vertical-align:5%; font-family: Georgia,serif; color:#cccccc;">—&nbsp;'''[[User:Dscosson|dscosson]]''' • '''[[User talk:Dcosson|talk]]'''&nbsp;</span> 15:50, 21 December 2008 (UTC)
