Excerpt from St. James' Episcopal Church: An Historical Scrapbook 1849-1979
Compiling this book truly has been a parish project. Everyone I have approached in the parish, in the community, even in the diocese has been cooperative and enthusiastic in his response. It is therefore impossible to acknowledge all of the help I have received. But I must name some to whom I am most indebted.
