 The original interiors were rich in finish, with elongated neogothic columns, lancet arches, polychrome stenciling on walls and ceilings in warm gray, madder rose, olive green and gold; stained glass, and paintings by Vermont artist Thomas Waterman Wood.A large central altar was flanked by two smaller side altars and the podium was located midway in the nave.The local newspaper at the time, the "Montpelier Daily Journal," said of the newly constructed place of worship, "They have built a sanctuary that will be a joy and an inspiration not only to them, but to their children and their children's children for generations to come."
