The Sign placed over the door by the 1897
Bible School |

This is Shiloh as originally constructed in 1897. The 'port hole' windows
in the Jerusalem turret were replaced with bay windows and the crown received taller
columns during the period of time that the extension was also under construction. |

Above, the Shiloh Complex, looking north from about a mile distant,
probably taken ca. 1901. The photographer is standing somewhere near the northeast
end of what is now known as the Leighton Road. Bethesda is clearly visible at the far
right, Olivet in the center, with John Douglass's barn visible in the mid-foreground
beneath the extension. 'Hephzibah' hidden in the elms just to the left of the
barn. The Holland cottage lies above the barn and below the extension. The terrace
arouns Olivet has not yet been seeded. |

Shiloh Complex, circa 1905 looking easterly from somewhere near the Wiley
Farm, about 3/4 of a mile distant. Olivet, the childrens building is the turreted
building on the right, with the flagstaff on top of Bethesda visible just to the left of
Olivet. |
The easterly "elevation" of Shiloh Extension, from an antique
postcard. Notice the arched wooden gateway over the stairs at the edge of the east
terrace. Both photos are from antique postcards. |
The inner courtyard of the Extension, facing north. The American
flag flies from David's tower, on the northeast side of the building, closest to the
Androscoggin River. |
