Free Will Baptist Church - Adamsville, RI (Old Stone Church Vintage Postcard)

 

Technically located in Tiverton, the postcard's Adamsville label is accurate, as the church is found just over the border.

The back of the postcard shows Lillie's note to friend Ruth. Lillie says breezes are 'pretty scarce down here."
