That was kinda fun researching this. Found this;
The year 1910 of the new 20th century saw major changes and additions to the
Hartland Methodist Church. The front entrance was relocated to the present
location with a new vestibule and bell tower, stained glass windows were installed,
a choir loft was added and Christian education school rooms were added to the
back of the building. Unfortunately this project also resulted in the death of a local
carpenter, Will Shoemaker, as a result of his fall from the new bell tower.
Subsequently the stained glass window in the north wall was commemorated in his
memory, and on November 12, 1910 a dedication service took place to celebrate
the reopening of the remodeled church building.
