Visitors at National Cathedral admire Washington landmark
Rev. W Byron Stet and Mrs. Biebl with J C Rouletis of Hagerstown visited the National Cathedral in Washington and signed the visitors book after the foundation was laid for what would become one of the world’s great Gothic churches. The Episcopal Church aims to honor George Washington’s dream of a temple for public prayer and national remembrance atop Mount St. Albans land, described as the highest point in the area. The Canon of Canterbury, visiting in July, called it the watchtower of the United States and praised the city view from the cathedral grounds as the most inspiring he had seen.
