Cool horse and buggy, too. President Theodore Roosevelt rode in one, so the photo could be turn-of-the-century.

APS - That photo of the Mount was taken in Wolfeboro. The large building behind the horse and buggy burned in 1898.....so it must have been taken just before the turn of the century.

As for the pile of wood: Other boats docked over near this dock that may have been wood-burning. I don't think the 'wood would've' been for the Mount.

Perhaps it was for Our Lady of the Lake?

Could the wood have been for the saw mill? I know they floated the logs in. The Back Bay has many that got stuck in the mud. I remember being in a boat in 1948 and hitting one of the logs. We went back to Moultonboro in reverse. That took awhile.
