This was Ely's second modern hospital, the first being the Tanner Hospital. The Shipman Hospital was torn down in 1958 to make room for the "new" Ely Clinic.
A postcard showing three churches of Long Prairie, Minnesota: Presbyterian Church, Methodist Church and Lutheran Church. The Methodist Episcopal Church was built in 1883. It burned in a fire in 1941 but the congregation rallied its financial and spiritual powers to rebuild. The new church was dedicated in April 1942 and cost $18, 000.
