Description |
Two copies of a souvenir picture postcard of the "K. of C. Kirmess" held November 20-25, 1911 by the Knights of Columbus in Washington, Indiana. Photos of Fathers Francis Tobeck, M. W. Lyons and A. J. Sprigler are printed on the front as well as photos of St. Mary and St. Simon Catholic Churches. On the correspondence side is written, "A merry Flemish outdoor festival. A festival is [in] or out doors in U. S." One of these postcards was part of a large collection of photos and records donated to the Daviess County Museum in 2012 from St. Simon Catholic Church. The construction of St. Simon Catholic Church was completed in 1886. In 2008 the church was renamed Our Lady of Hope after the merger of St. Simon and St. Mary, the two Catholic parishes in Washington. On the reverse of the second postcard is attached the return mailing label for "Mrs. Jeanette Riney 509 Sunset Ave. Washington, IN 47501." |
