Written on back: "Cannington Manor Hewlett Coll. The Trail. The earliest settlers came to the Moose Mountains on Red River Carts sometimes wagons. In crossing deep creeks water drenched their supplies, and the men would be mud from head to foot. When stuck, an outfit could only rely on help from another settler (This photo not of Cannington Manor but taken from an official report)"
