Edward Lothrop Rand is at the far left. As usual he is carrying his vasculum for collecting botanical specimens. Frank Mortimer Wakefield is in back with a walking stick. Henry Rand and his party were probably at the summer house or gazebo belonging to the Sea Wall House (hotel) as he recorded photographing the Dolliver brothers at Sea Wall just a few minutes before taking this photograph. There would have been few private pavilions as elegant as this in the Seawall district at that time.

"This 1895 photograph of Seal Harbor shows the Seaside Inn on the left and The Glencove rear center. The Seaside Inn was rebuilt from the Clement family homestead in 1869, enlarged in 1875 and torn down in 1964. Edwin Lynam and his son-in-law, Robert Campbell, put up the Glencove in 1883. Hansen, in his book of the town of Mount Desert, says that the Glencove “seems to have been a resort of professionals and intellectuals. Its guests sometimes included such a large portion of scholars that it was said that the bell hops were…construing Latin phrases.” The Glencove was sold and demolished in 1910 and the site became the village green."- MH - Mt. Desert Islander - 2007.

Clark Point Road goes off to the right in the foreground. The Left side of Main Street: J.C. Ralph's Studio is the first whole building visible on the left. One of the old street lights and the wall of the Southwest Harbor Public Library are visible on the far side of the Ralph building. The Right Side of Main Street: The "fountain" sitting in the road in just about at the corner of Clark Point Road, is a horse watering fountain. The white two-story building with the belfry was Southwest Harbor’s first high school before the building was turned ninety degrees and moved to become the Harmon Block at 337 Main Street. Gilley Plumbing, later the Gilley Plumbing Company, is visible beyond the school building.

Pug was considered a member of the Rand family and, as you can see, traveled with his own luggage. The photograph was possibly taken while traveling to Southampton on the Hamburg American Line's SS Furst Bismarck steamship. Archivists have been unable to find with whom in the Rand family he was traveling, but Margaret Arnoild Rand applied for a passport a few months before the photograph was taken so it is possible that they shared the First Cabin Stateroom indicated in this picture.

  • 49 Kirkland Street
The house in the background is now the Nieman Foundation’s Walter Lippmann House at One Francis Street. It was built in 1836 by Ebenezer Francis, a carpenter and Harvard custodian. The street, of course, was named for him. In 1892, when Henry Lathrop Rand took the photograph while living at his mother’s house across Francis Street on the corner at 49 Kirkland Street, the Francis Street house was still listed on maps as the Eben Francis House. Harvard University bought the Francis property in 1974 and gave it to the Nieman Foundation. It was Christened as the Walter Lippmann house on September 23, 1979 with much fanfare attended by a raft of famous journalists and political persons. They celebrated by breaking a bottle of champagne on its front steps. Henry would have been fascinated.
