Photograph of an exterior view of the Friends Church in Whittier showing a horse-drawn carriage in front of the building, ca.1900. The church is at center and is a single-story clapboard building. A staircase leads up to the entrance at right, and a tall rectangular bell tower anchors the front right corner of the building. A row of trees partially obscures the view of the church. At center, a small horse-drawn wagon is visible. A narrow road can be seen in the foreground at left.
