Neither worshippers nor Sunday school students, firefighters wearing air tanks brought a hose into the Central Congregational Church in Middleborough on Monday. One appeared to be looking upward at the fire, which was in the church attic. Crews from 11 towns responded to the four-alarm fire, which ravaged the 161-year-old sanctuary.

Ted Gartland, a dayside photo editor at the Globe, has been taking pictures in Greater Boston since 1971. Each weekday, he highlights an outtake that did not appear in the morning paper.
