Universalist Church
In 1884, Rev. J. J. Lewis, of Boston, organnized a small Universalist society, which met in the old G. A. R. Hall. Rev. G. W. Perry came as pastor, and from a scattered few there grew a prosperous parish, which erected a $30,000 marble Church in 1890, on West Street. Rev. Q. H. Shinn was sent by the Universalist General Convention and did able work arter Mr. Perry's labors had impaired his health.
Easter Sunday, 1900, Lorenzo G. Woodhouse. of New York, gave $4,100 to pay the last vestige of the church debt, as a memorial of his father and mother, Dr. and Mrs. Charles H. Woodhouse. Twelve exquisite stained windows have been given as individual presents. Rev. G. F. Fortier has only recently assumed the pastorate.
