This month's mystery involves a sketch of St. Stephen's Church in Baker, Oregon. The image was sketched on a piece of tracing paper, and then taped to the cover of St. Stephen's Diamond Jubilee, 1873-1948 souvenir album. Unfortunately, the adhesive has slowly eaten away at the paper over the last sixty-seven years. Was this the original sketch used for the album? Who is the artist? At the bottom of the sketch are what appear to be the initials, "CLW". What are your thoughts?
