CHURCHES: SAINT PETER'S
Father Charles O. Rosensteel served as pastor of Olney's St. Peter's Mission Church 1889-98; he often rode a bicycle on mission rounds. An earlier St. Peter's Chapel was built in Mt. Zion in about 1860.	Friends and relatives attend the wedding ceremony of Lois and Edward Marley at St. Peter's in 1954. Today the third-generation St. Peter's and its school occupy much of Olney's southeast quadrant.
