Description

Black and white 5"h x 4"w photo of the second building called Sacred Heart Church. A circular drive passes in front of the entrance to the church. A low fence protects the lawn in front of the building. The entry way protrudes several feet from the main building and helps form the base for the tower. Four steps up with railings on each side lead to the double wooden doors. There is a triangular window above the doors with IHS in the center. There is a large round window with a smaller circle in the center and four arcs around it above the door at the second floor level. There is a tall narrow pointed arch window around the corner from the entry door on the first floor to illuminate the doorway and there is a similar window on the second floor. A v-shaped cut in the roofline above the round window provides more light for it. The roof slopes back toward the main building and then rises to create the bell tower. The roof of the tower is covered with fishscale shingles. The bell tower is open and six sided with a small wooden railing and each segment has a pointed arch traced at the top. The belfrey is covered with a very tall six sided spire that absolutely looks like a witch's hat. The cross on top is quite large. Flanking the entry on the gable end of the building is a pointed arch window with six square windows below, one square window in the middle, and the pointed window on the top. These may be triple hung windows. Trees obscure the remainder of the building. ******************************************* Text on verso: "Picture 168 Sacred Heart Church 2d" This photo was on page 55 of Binder 1.
