If walls could talk

The Muscongus brotherhood church, Louds Island, Maine (picture taken from Yahoo pictures)

For some reason I expected it to be red.
I thought that if I will look close enough, in the corners, where the lumber was joined, I will be able to notice a touch of red from the original structure. I was wondering if  in the dead of night, when the quiet lies heavy and uninterrupted the whispers of children voices can be heard. 

But after searching long and hard, almost giving up, I found it on Louds island. A grey building, that does not disclose its age of over hundred years. Nothing in the name reveals the drama. The brotherhood church built in the Gothic revival style now used rather infrequently on an island that its official population is -zero.
