St. Patraick's Catholic Church
The present Catholic church was opened to Divine service in June 1873.  It was then a modest chapel - a frame building, 50x25 feet.  But the rapid increase in number of Catholic congregation soon necessitated a more ample accommodation and an addition of 54x25 feet was put up in 1876.  The building has now the form of a Latin cross, the main body 75x25 and the two arms of the body 75x25 and the two arms of the cross 25x14, affording a seating capacity of 400 people.  The present pastor is Rev. Father Derue.
