Below is a picture of Appleton Chapel's interior as it appeared in 2011 during a memorial service for Rev. Peter Gomes, the church's minister for 35 years.
The actual chapel--where Hanford and Stanford went this day--was built in 1858 and torn down in 1931 to make way for the new church, Harvard Memorial, that would be a suitable size for both morning prayer service and Sunday services and also stand as a war memorial for WWI. Below is a photo of the original chapel, taken after 1917 by Leslie Jones, a Boston newspaper photographer.
