The marble plaque, erected by parishioners for his services to the church, commemorates Charles Nathan who died in 1872.
Charles Nathan, a well known surgeon, was one of the original four doctors appointed to the new Sydney Infirmary and Dispensary in 1845. A fervent Evangelical, he was a warden and trustee of St James's Church, King Street, and daily read a chapter from the New Testament in the original Greek which he had taught himself. Generous, kindly and tolerant, he died from septicaemia at his home in Macquarie Street, Sydney, on 20 September 1872.
