  • 1892-10-12
  • Tremont, Center
The 400th anniversary of Columbus' landing in America inspired the first official Columbus Day holiday in the United States. President Benjamin Harrison issued a proclamation in 1892, “recommending to the people the observance in all their localities of the 400th anniversary of the discovery of America…” and describing Columbus as “the pioneer of progress and enlightenment.” On the four hundredth anniversary teachers, preachers, poets and politicians used Columbus Day rituals to teach ideals of patriotism. These patriotic rituals were framed around themes such as support for war, citizenship boundaries, the importance of loyalty to the nation, and celebrating social progress. Columbus Day first became an official state holiday in Colorado in 1906, and became a federal holiday in 1937. Celebrants in this photograph of the 1892 anniversary are dressed in their best wool and satin. Many of the children are holding flags and several of them sport berets made of starred fabric. One young woman holds a violin. Left to Right: as originally written in Eleanor Mayo's notes. Charles "Charlie" Andrew Hodgdon (1874-1907) Arthur Heslyn Rumill (1883-1948) Herbert G.

The house was built by John "Talking John" Melbourne Rich, the first of his three houses. John owed his Uncle Jonathan Rich (1836-1907) a sum of money, so he swapped this Tremont house for Jonathan's older less valuable Richtown house. Emily (Rich) Trask (1884-1981), John Melbourne Rich's daughter, said in a 1975 interview that she was born in the house, "in that back bedroom up there… That was a big place. It was different from these days…it had a piazza clean around it and round the front. Father was great on building big places but he got in debt so much that he had to give up and go over to Richville [Richtown] and live." The main house, minus barn and ell, still exists in 2016, although covered in green asbestos shingles. The house was originally painted a cream color with brown trim. It sits back from the road just before the Tremont Congregational Church. The people in the photograph left to right: Jonathan Rich (1836-1907) Roseanna B. (Dix) Rich - Mrs. Jonathan Rich (1841-1916) Avah Dalton Rich, Sr. (1876-1908) Unknown lady in a white shirtwaist Unknown seated lady Rena “Teenie” or “Tiny” May Thurston - a dwarf (1866-1905) Unknown lady in a hat Unknown man in a suit

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.

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

  • 1891
  • 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.
