      The Baptist Church. The first society of this denomination was organized by the Reverend Jonathan Smith, mainly through the strenuous efforts of Reverend Richardson. In 1874, in connection with the lodge of Free Masons, they erected a two story building, the lower story being used as a Church, and the upper for lodge purposes.
