Bibliography/Comments:
Date documented through church photographs (before and after renovation). These windows, L1-7 and R1-7) obviously were installed at one time and are most likely by same studio that supplied window #0; attribution to Lamb (see letter dated 1/26/93 in file) seems likely (J. Farnsworth).
