The st. Peters Roman Catholic church
in Vergennes is probably the costliest
building of its class in this part of the
State. 1t was built in 1874, at an expense
of thirty thousand dollars. Some nota-
bic changes have been made in the nte-
rior of the building, which, through the
courtesy of Father p. \. Campeau, we
were permitted to examine. In Febru-
airy last Father Campeau projected the
idea of a new altar. 1t is expensive, but
none TOO much so to be in keeping with
what the church will be when finished
internally. The architect is NJ. Forter
of Montreal, and is copy of the great
altar in the Notre Dame church in that
city. 1t is built of native wood in mixed
Gothic style, and oak, black walnut,
cherry and ash enter into its composition.
1t is simply finished in oil and shellac,
and is a very fine piece of work. In
height it rises thirty-three feet from the
base, the dome reaching to the large
| Illuminated window above. Directly I'M
der the dome is figure of st. Peter, five
and half feet in height. Underneath
this is a large golden cross. The altar
trimmings are rich. The two wings sep
arating the main altar from the two side
affairs terminate with a figure of Our
| Lady of Mercy at the left and figure of
the Sacred Heart of Jesus. An altar
similar to the main altar occupies the left
wing. to the Blessed Virgin and a life
figure is seen here. The altar for the
right wing is now in process of construc-
ton. The width of the main altar is
twenty-four feet. The effect of the whole
is very fine. and when the entire church
is finished. as it is designed to have it
