Memorial Windows For Rev Osborne Ingle at All Saints
After the death of Rev Osbourne Ingle in 1909 the All Saints vestry delayed filling his post. In 1910 they invited Rev Douglass Hooff, who arrived in Frederick in September 1910 after awaiting vacancy resolution. They commissioned Mayer Company windows in Munich to honor Ingle with three designs, centering on Christ in Glory and featuring Saint John the Baptist and Isaiah, and an east window with Saint Peter and other figures.

Frederick County will bill the state for housing prisoners after overcrowding delays in state facilities force local jails to hold inmates. Sheriff Donald C. Barnes said some sentences keep prisoners in county jail up to 44 days, with six weeks common, as the state system frees space. Comptroller Thomas M. Fox plans to send a bill once prisoner-day statistics are compiled, potentially by Thursday.
