Frontier wedding shrine and Little Brown Church tale

A frontier church drew 143 couples married in a single month in this year, funding its upkeep through wedding fees. The building, reached by 60 miles of rugged roads, hosts visitors yearly with 40,000 coming to view its rough pews and aged organ. A yellow pamphlet and the song The Little Church by the Vale recall its fame, while a pastor tied 16 weddings in one summer day. The story contrasts with a later note on a poverty meal in Middlesbrough and a charitable restaurant run by Mrs. May Curtis offering cheap meals to school children.
