- Description: A group of older women and two men, several dressed in Salvation Army uniforms gather around a table with a cake. One woman holds the tip of the American flag. Two crepe paper cat figures adorn the wall behind the group. This photo dates very likely from 1951 or later. (The two couples in uniform closest to the cake may be about to exchange leadership roles. The City Directory lists a few different names of people "in charge" during the early 1950s.)

Sewer Projects

- Description: November 21, 1940. North End Sewer project. This view shows the construction of the Bradley Road section of the North End Sewer. The Austin Excavator is being employed to excavate all materials and deliver with side delivery elevator into trucks where it is transported back and dumped into the ditch for refilling. This view shows the evidence of boulders and ledge encountered in the excavation. Note the absence of sheeting on this project regardless of the depth of the trench which at this point was approximately twelve feet. The top layer of approximately six feet being sand and loam was broken down from the shoulders with the aid of compressed air tools at a slope which did not endanger the men laying the tile. The bottom six or seven feet of excavation was in solid blue clay. Note the straight sides in the bottom of the trench indicating the stability of this material. Very little water was encountered at this point.

- Description: Visitors stop near the former main entrance to the Shelburne Museum. Visitors could at one time enter through one side of the covered bridge. The other side housed wagons, carriages, carts. A horse drawn milk carriage was stationed next to the bridge; a favorite spot for a snapshot. No border fence was present at this point in time. In the distance is seen the Colchester Lighthouse and the steamboat Ticonderoga.
