Morris, New York

In the New Berlin Gazette for November 6, 2019, in The Early Files section on page 5 there is a mention of some rough going for a pair of Linn tractors.

November 1, 1919
"A Linn tractor came to the mill in Cardtown after a load of lumber. Recent rains had made the mud very deep near the mill and the caterpillar became buried. A second one came to the rescue and suffered the same fate. As a result the two remained fast until the morning."

There's another image of the Holy Cross Roman Catholic Church. Which one is older?

Another view of the fountain from the other direction. This postcard had a 1910 postmark.
