'Beilby' adds:
Note the wooden panels around the trunk of the cedar tree - to protect it from the goats. By about 1910 there must have been something of a gap between the gutter and the wooden verandah of the store since our Aunt Lizzie (later Akers), wearing a long dress with fashionably tight hem, fell from the boardwalk into the gutter and was unable to regain her stance unassisted.View a larger version of this picture: small | medium | large (pictures open in a new window) This picture is part of the following Bonzle photo collections: Is this picture rude, offensive or defamatory; spam; or not about and/or of the place?
