Additional Details:
This classic edifice, built in 1842 was used as a hospital by federal soldiers in 1864 and then damaged by them. Here just after the war, a northern officer married a southern girl. The wedding caused a furor. The organist, playing under protest, dressed in deep mourning and played the wedding march in funeral time.
