This is a black and white photo taken in the spring. The photo shows the Thessalon River in the foreground and three buildings on the other side of the river.

The largest building is the three story home of Mr. Bennett. Mr. Bennett's home has a long front porch and has covered porches on both main and second levels. The upper story of the home has five dormer windows and a small balcony extends out over the front door.

Typed notes at the bottom of the photo read: "The Frank Bennett home became Thessalon's Second hospital and when the addition was added it became the Victorian Hospital. In 1924, the Red Cross took over the operation of the 14 bed hospital. It burned on April 2, 1940."
