This picture shows the Advent Church looking east along Mill Street. The church was established in the late 1800’s but is no longer used as a church. On the right side of the street, next to the church, was the Flea Market. Just visible on the right is the house now owned by Joe Canute (2006). The person standing on the sidewalk in front of the house is unidentified.

On the left side of the street is Merton Holmes Garage with a “Horse Shoeing” sign out front. On the far left is the house of Dr. Becker, now owned by Terry Carney (2006).
