Outhouse at the Prairie Grove Cemetery

Polaroid photograph of the old outhouse behind the little white church in the Prairie Grove Cemetery on Old Trail Road in the Waynedale area of Fort Wayne, Indiana. I photographed it early in the early evening.

Believed to have been built in 1858, the church is one of the oldest buildings in Fort Wayne. The outhouse is much newer; it has a modern concrete base. It hasn't been used in many years. There used to be a beautiful tree growing next to the outhouse; it was cut down a few years before I made this photograph.
