Description

ST. PATRICK'S CATH. CHURCH CHESTERTON, IND.

Date: Circa 1910 Source Type: Postcard Publisher, Printer, Photographer: Karbo, M. L. Photo Company (#29) Postmark: None Collection: Steven R. Shook Remark: Located on the northwest corner of Indiana Avenue and Third Street, this church was destroyed by fire in August 1998.

The following was published in the September 17, 1884, issue of The Tribune:

Work has been commenced on the spire of the Catholic church of this place. The height of this spire when completed, will be 60 feet and on the top of this a cross 13 feet high made of iron, heavily plated with gold will be placed. When completed the entire height of the spire from the ground, will be 135 feet.


The following was published in the October 15, 1884, issue of The Tribune:

The pinnacles on the Catholic Church spire were made by Quick Bros. There are four of them, one at each corner, and each are 12 feet high, and made of iron. That they were made by home talent reflects credit on the town. The spire is nearly completed, and the cross, which is really beautiful, has been placed in position. Now if work was commenced on the inside of the building, and the place generally repaired, seats changed so that at least six aisles would be made, this church would be indeed handsome.
