Scope and Content

Black and white picture and caption from an article in the Coos County Democrat. "A lady plays at tennis (left), a bark-roofed gazebo awaits idlers on the lawn, and smoke billows from some of the 10 chimneys in this rare old photograph of the second Glen House, circa 1888, and brought in by Tom Corrigan after he came onto it in an old box. The original Glen House, built in 1851, burned in 1884. This larger structure was built the very next year, and survived until fire claimed it too, in 1893." Reads the caption.
