Description
A view of Trout Creek with a cow grazing on the flats. This photo was taken in 1903 by Milton Reesor, a local amateur photographer; Reesor took several photos of this view of Trout Creek with the Grand Trunk Railway Bridge in the background. Part of the power house, also known as the pump house, is visible on the left side of the photo under the London Bridge. The power house was built in 1898 as a means of pumping water when the municipal water system was installed in St. Marys. It also generated a limited amount of electricity for the town.
