Early Baptizing at First Baptist Church  

This  is a picture of Rev. L.H. Billings baptizing a group in the swimming pool at his two-story House on the Hill.  This is looking southeast at the shallow end of the pool, I believe.  Farther to the left, up the pool, was a diving board.  To the left, also out of the picture, is the house.  To the right, out of the picture, is the "Bath House" where my family lived for several years, at different times.  For a kid, this was always a wonderful place.
