Nell and Seth Thornton are shown leaving Southwest Harbor for their home in Houlton, Maine in a beautiful 1910 Model T Ford automobile. Nell sits in the back seat, a man is driving and another stands at the side of the car. The Model T may belong to Seth or the other man who may possibly be driving them to Bar Harbor or Ellsworth to board the train for Houlton. If the Ford belonged to the Thorntons the trip from Southwest Harbor to Houlton would have taken them at least 11 hours by automobile in 1912. They probably would have stopped for at least one night thereby making an even longer trip. The Carroll family celebrated the Fourth of July every year with a picnic at their old family home, The Mountain House, on Carroll hill in Southwest Harbor.

"This is a picture of the 5th and 6th graders at the Freeman Grammar School taken in 1916. It appears to be a special occasion with the flowers on the desk and the students all looking so serious as their photograph is being taken. This room is located upstairs at Harbor House on the side of the building next to the Lawrence S. Robinson Co. I attended the 4th and 5th grades in that room. It was sunnier than the rooms on the north side of the building, so when my fourth grade teacher, Gladys Whitmore, retired the fifth grade teacher, Bertha Reed, seized the opportunity to move the fifth grade across the hall. I recall feeling a bit disappointed at first that I would not get to be in a different room in the fifth grade, but as I like lots of sun, I think overall I lucked out after all." - Meredith Hutchins 01/24/2012
