- Notes
- Postcard sent by Walter Croswell to his mother January 26, 1916.
The picture was probably taken in 1915. The two storey veranda on the Jules Brown store remains in an excellent state of repair. The stately new hotel has been built – and while perhaps not as imposing as the earlier brick hotel, it is an attractive and inviting building, nonetheless. The Croswell Boat Works are prominent – with the doors closed.
It is not clear if the building immediately behind the boat works in the picture at left and to the left (west) in the picture below was part of the boat works or a separate sawmilling operation
