Black and white 3 1/2"h x 3 1/2"w photo of the interior of St. Francis Xavier Church at Newtown. There is a barrel vault ceiling, supported by large pillars. A light fixture that looks like an inverted mushroom hangs on a long chain from the ceiling. A series of chains supports a candle hanging near the altar. The altar rail is dark with white posts. The door to the sacristy on the left has its curtains pulled back, but the curtains are in place on the right. The altar is covered with a dark cloth with light fringe and has IHS painted? carved? on the front face. The tabernacle has a round dome surmounted with a cross. A statue of Jesus? is on a table on the right and one of Mary is in a similar position on the left. There are floral arrangments in front of the large painting of St. Francis Xavier? is on the wall, surrounded by very impressive wooden pillars. A dove is mounted above the painting.
