"This is one of the most ancient pictures in this collection. Trees may be seen growing on what was later the Coburn Hall lot. The building showing between these trees may have been the rear of the Even Neal Store.

"Farther down, partially hidden by a maple tree, is a large building, said to have been the Dorothy Carriage Shop. It is possible that the building to be seen farthest down the street was at one time the residence of the late Stephen Coburn."
