Taken later than the view shown in Item 5663, this view shows a little greenery grown up around the small hotel perched on granite. The Mountain House, built in 1866, was the first hotel to be built on what was then Green Mountain, now Cadillac Mountain. "Daniel Brewer's Mountain House operated through the early 1880's, offering simple, but hearty meals and modest overnight lodging. During the 1870's as many as 3,000 visitors patronized the place each summer." - Steam to the Summit: The Green Mountain Railway - Bar Harbor’s Remarkable Cog Railroad, by Peter Dow Bachelder, p. 24 - 2005. This building was replaced with a much larger structure, The Green Mountain House, when the Green Mountain Railway was built in 1883.

Probably by Bryant Brandley. Information written on the reverse: Ellen Cooper beside driver (Ellen K. McInnes's aunt) Sarah Kaighn in back of driver (Ellen K. McInnes's aunt) Howard Cooper in back of Sarah Kaighn (Howard C. Johnson's uncle) 1877 Judging from other photographs, Robert Kaighn possibly may be identified as the gentleman 4th from left on the near side of the buckboard and it seems probably that his wife, Mary (Cooper) Kaighn, is on his right, 3rd from left.

The wood building at the left is the Bradley Block which was located between the First National and Bar Harbor Banks of 2007. Just visible on the awning is a mortar and pestle sign for a druggist. The building just to the right of the white store is A.W. Bee, Stationer. The large hotel at right was the Rodick House. The freshly renovated Rodick House is garnished with new trees planted and braced on the lawn. There are board sidewalks at the edge of the dirt road which, in turn, is garnished with manure from the many carriage horses shown in the picture. The sign at front lefts says, "Berry Bros. - Boarding Hack and Livery Stable - Cottage Street - Single & Double Teams Furnished Short Notice" The sign at front right says, "Café - John Dean - Phila Caterer - Chicken Croquettes - Medicated (?) Chicken Consomme"

The photograph was probably taken when Sarah was about eleven to thirteen years old. Isaac H. Dupee may have set up his photography tent in Eden several times, but we know for certain that he was taking photographs there in 1870.
