The title was given by Henry L. Rand when he catalogued the photograph. Clearly visible on Mr. Higgins’ anvil is the distinctive eagle and anchor mark that distinguishes it as a Fisher & Norris Eagle Anvil. Mark Fisher founded the company in Newport, Maine in 1843. The company later moved to New Jersey. Mr. Higgins left hand is on the lever that controls the air coming into the fire. And a bucket of water stands nearby.

It is unknown exactly where Osmond was picking up hay, but it is probable that he was on Peter Theodore Benson Jr.'s land and two of Peter's children were helping load the hay. The Harpers and the Bensons were neighbors at Seawall. Osmond built his house at 475 Seawall Road, Map 19 - Lot 48, MHPC #405-1016, across the road and several lots toward Southwest Harbor from the Benson's land, in 1917.
