        • Description: 1948 photo of students of the Sodality Council of Mount St. Mary's, a private Catholic girls' school, assembled for a formal group photo. They wear necklaces (religious medallions?). School was located on Mansfield Ave. in Burlington, Vermont. Sodalities were lay organizations dedicated to personal piety and service to others. The priest in this photo may be the Rev. Barry E. Fontaine of the Catholic diocese of Burlington. The statue of Christ displays the Sacred Heart, and some of the "sodalists" have flowers to decorate the shrine. Photo #1.

          • Date Created: 1951-1952
          • Description: 1951 / 1952 photo of Saint Joseph's Church sanctuary with worshipers. The church, the largest in Vermont, was finished in 1887, but the parish itself began in 1850. A centennial history of the parish was published in 1987 and has a detailed history of the building's design and construction. Here one sees the full panoply of religious artifacts and decoration known before the reforms of the Second Vatican Council, some of which can be seen at St. Joseph's today. These include a reproduction of DaVinci's "Last Supper," numerous statues of saints and angels, at least 3 American flags, perhaps a flag of Vatican City, flowers, plants, and special lighting. In addition, a man standing in the middle of the church appears to be playing a trumpet. The occasion of this particular mass is not known.

                    • Description: Created in 1921 and restored in 2000, "this bronze statue of UVM's founder, Ira Allen, was executed by sculptor Sherry Fry, a member of the National Academy of Design... James B. Wilbur, a wealthy businessman from Manchester, Vermont, who wrote the 1928 biography of Ira Allen, gave the statue to the University. The statue displaced the Lafayette statue which was relocated to the north side of the University Green, thus severing the logical connection between the original placement of the statue of Lafayette and Old Mill."
