Description
This black and white postcard features a small clapboard church with a tower in the center. A small house is to the left of the church and both sit behind a white picket fence. Trees are around and beside both buildings. The title along the top identifies the scene as ""Episcopal Church and Parsonage, Woodville, Miss."" An inscription is written it the white space to the right of the image. The back of the postcard identifies the item as a postcard and provides publisher information. A green one cent postage stamp is placed upside down in the upper right corner and the card is postmarked twice. The first postmark is for Woodville, Mississippi, January 13, 1909 and the second postmark is for Washington, D.C., January 16, 1909. The card is inscribed and is addressed to Mrs. Dudey T. Pruittin Washington, D. C. and Bolivar, Tennessee.
