NotesThe Church of the Hills. A replica of the 18th century meeting house in Portland, Maine, attended in his youth by America's best-loved poet, Henry Wadsworth Longfellow. One of his earliest poems was written in a futile attempt to save it from demolition in 1824. This church was built from a carpenter's model made at that time. Forest Lawn-Hollywood Hills, Los Angeles, California.
