Last week we shared this photo with you:

Muskoka Digital Archives tells us that this regatta scene at Huntsville’s Town Dock is from about 1908. The Fred Francis is the house in the centre left, on the hill. Below it on the left is the Wilgress building and beside it on the right the Wardell building. The two storey building on the right, foreground, is Hanna and Hutcheson Bros. and to the left with the slanted roof, J.J. Bailey. On the left is the swing bridge.
