Page 91 contains a photograph with a typed label which reads: "Chestnut Hill Academy, 1905". The photograph shows the Chestnut Hill Academy in 1905. The building was formerly The Wissahickon Inn (shown as the Inn on page 90 of this scrapbook). The view is from a distance with the building atop a hill. The building is rather large with three stories to include a "wrap-around" porch on the first floor and many gabled, peaked dormer windows on the third floor, along with turrets and tall chimneys. The hill sloped down to a road which appears fenced on both sides.Collection
