|  View of Bass Harbor from the Underwood Water Tower Southwest Harbor Public Library Description: The building with the tower in the distant background was the Charles B. Dix / Simeon Amassa Holden house and the stable (now moved) is the large building in the field behind it. The boathouse for that property, the Captain Charles B. Dix (1836-1906) Boat House, is on the white house directly on the shore next to the large clump of trees. It was the Lyle Arlington Reed house at the time the picture was taken - 143 Harbor Drive (Route 102A), Tremont, Maine. The building out on the spit is Little Island Marine, begun after WWII c. 1945-1946. The business on the shore just to the right of the wharf building was Lyle Arlington Reed’s store - 35 Shore Road, Bass Harbor (formerly McKinley), Maine. The small brown house in the middle of the large lot at the right, almost at the corner of McMullen Avenue and the Shore Road belonged to George Al Lovejoy (1903-1964). The house is now gone. It probably sat on the 9 McMullen Avenue property, Map 12 – Lot 44. The large building in the right foreground was owned by H.G. Reed and housed the Post Office on the ground floor facing the Shore Road – 45 Shore Road, Bass Harbor, Maine – Map 12 – Lot 43 The building at the left foreground was W.H. Thurston's General Store – later the Seafood Ketch restaurant – 47 Shore Road – Map 12 – Lot 42. [show more] |

|  Bass Harbor Marsh Southwest Harbor Public Library Description: “There are large Salt marshes in Wells Scarborough, Falmouth and Machias, about the Islands of Sagadahock, and about Mount Desert where great quantities of salt hay are annually cut which, with that of the upland and fresh meadow, make exceedingly good fodder.” – “The History of the state of Maine: from its First Discovery, A. D. 1602 to The Separation, A.D. 1820, inclusive.” by William Durkee Williamson, Volume I, Section II – The Soils of Maine, p. 97 published by Glazier, Masters & Co., 1832. "Marsh hay which was very fine and very good for cows grew on a big piece of marsh land at Bass Harbor. Oxen were used on the marshes as they would not sink into the muck as easily as a horse and had the ability to pull their feet out of the muck under conditions which would mire a horse. Cranberries were picked on the marsh and kept for the winter in big barrels partly filled with water from which they were dipped out with a big strainer." - “Recollections of Southwest Harbor, Maine 1885-1894” by Jesse L. Parker, p. 31-32, manuscript, 1955. "Indians from Oldtown, Maine camped on the rocks across [Clark Point Road] from our house [the Parker house at 143 Clark Point Road] each summer. They lived in tents and sold baskets, moccasins and small birch bark canoes. Some of the baskets were made of wood and some almost entirely of sweetgrass which had a very pleasant odor. This grass was secured from the marshes at Bass Harbor and would be cured by being hung up in large bunches. They also cut some ash wood for use in making the wooden baskets. As the same Indians returned year after year we became well acquainted with them. In later years the older Indian boys played baseball with us." p. 40. Jesse Lindon Parker (1881-1966) This valuable manuscript is a narrative of the early history of the town by an eyewitness. There are largely unknown or unreported facts on almost every page.
