Flying Mountain is in the foreground. Dog Mountain on the left and Robinson Mountain on the right appear in the background. "The house on the left was built by Rev. Oliver Fernald and in 1926 his daughter, Louise Fernald (later Mrs. Lynn M. Goulding) sold it to Miss Mary E. Dreier of New York who remodeled it and named it Valour House in memory of the band of the Jesuit settlement of 1813. The farmhouse on the right was built in the early 1800's. In 1842 it was remodeled and made into a two family dwelling for Eben and Daniel Fernald. The brothers lived there and worked the farm for many years." - Traditions and Records of Southwest Harbor and Somesville, Mount Desert Island, Maine by Mrs. Seth S. Thornton, p 138 and 9 - 1938. The house was later sold by Louise to the Dreiers. In 2007, the house on the left was owned by Mrs. Rhys Williams and the house on the right was still owned by the Dreier family.

11734Fish Factory Workers in Southwest Harbor with Horse Mackerel and Halibut

  • Southwest Harbor
"The catch. probably tuna (called horse mackerel locally), has arrived at the packing house, having been dressed on board vessel. Now it is up to this hardy packing crew to wash these monstrous fish before packing them for shipment to Boston. Except for Asian markets, which existed mostly in large cities, there were few buyers for this product. At other times this packing house was filled with the more predominant fish of the day: hake, cod, haddock, and mackerel. Crews would wash the fish, lather them with salt, and pack them in ice in the tall barrels shown at rear for shipment to Gloucester or Boston. Only a few dealers in Manset, such as the Parkers, specialized in halibut, as it had to be shipped fresh on ice. Mackerel was the only product that had to be inspected once it arrived in Gloucester. As this list suggests, local fisheries processed a variety of fish. The local fishermen would head out, from spring through fall, following the schools, returning with whatever the sea would offer, and putting extra change in their pockets." – Text accompanying this photograph in “Mount Desert Island - Somesville, Southwest Harbor, and Northeast Harbor” by Earle G. Shettleworth Jr. and Lydia B. Vandenbergh - Images of America Series, 2001. p. 43.
