From GNIS:

• William Lloyd Garrison gave his first antislavery speech in this church. It was built in 1809 (US-T109). 'America' was first sung in public on July 4, 1852, at this church (MA-T36/p26). The variant name of 'Brimstone Corner' exists because the church was used to store gunpowder during the War of 1812 (MA-T36/p30).
