Another from about 1936/1937. Armed with Bibles, overcoats, hats, umbrellas ... looks like the ladies of St. Thomas's are ready for just about anything! That's my granny at the front, Mary Pennington (née Brown).

Aren't these ladies beautifully dressed? What a difference to some of the sloppy fashions seen today! They took a real pride in their appearance, and hats and gloves were essential accessories. Lovely!
