407a.  "West Castleton  July 1905"

407b.  "School house  West Castleton 1905"  [A key historic photograph!  This is looking east along Cedar Mountain Road, from near the front door of the Hazard House; Lake Bomoseen is clearly visible in the distance, as are the poles carrying electric wires to the slate operations on Cedar Mountain.]

407c.  "West Castleton  July 1905"

407d.  "Fair Haven Country Club  1905"  [note the horse in foreground, lower left; this photo was taken by someone riding in a horse-drawn carriage]

408b.  "Glen Lake  Sunday 1905"

408c.  "Lillian Foote  Lake Bomoseen 1905"  [This is a wonderful photograph; Neshobe Island and Bomoseen Village across the lake are clearly visible -- I swam in this exact spot]

408d.  "Steamer  Lake Bomoseen  1905"  [so is this one]

409.  Martha B. Warren photo album page no. 29.

409a.  "1906  [Whict?]"  [Wedding party, looks to be West Castleton]

409b.  "1906 [Whist?]  [This is a very odd photograph, seemingly several super-impositions in a montage that makes no sense -- weird.]

409c.  "Martha  Camp Adirondack  1906"  [age 15; a very poor quality photograph, but a fascinating one -- suggests Martha Ballard was trained to be capable in the out-of-doors, and shows her to be slender and fit]

409d.  "[Lori?]  Margaret  Madeline  1906  [Naioma Reek?]  Ethel Barber.  [Lizzie Bonner?  girls Ardman?]  [Wedding party, all women, very fancy hats & dresses, three generations]

410.  Martha B. Warren photo album page no. 30  (touring).

411.  Martha B. Warren photo album page no. 31.

411a.  "Fort Ethan Allen Monument  Aug. 1905"

411b.  "[L. R.?] Hazard & Wife, West Castleton, Sept 1905"  [initials don't make sense -- there is no L. R. Hazard that I can find -- this must be Samuel Lyle Hazard & Annie -- Martha's step-father and mother.  He'd be 50, she 44, which looks right, and the resemblances are there -- but why identify them so?  Maybe because she was in her teens?  A wonderful photo -- I'm assuming it's Martha's parents, Samuel & Annie Hazard]

411c.  "Birds Eye in the distance  taken from hill behind Fair Haven Country Club  Sept 1905"  [Birds Eye Mountain]

412.  Martha B. Warren photo album page no. 32.

412a.  "West Castleton  June 1900"

412b.  "West Castleton  Summer 1905"

412c.  "West Castleton  June 1905"  [Perhaps Art Pratt courting Martha Ballard; she was 14; the awning marks this as the Hazard House; the two people seated in the background look like mom & dad; the two young people in the foreground look like Martha & the young man in photo 412b, above]

412d.  "Louise Walker  Martha Ballard  Point of Pines  July 1905"  [two young women in the water; Martha, age 14, on the right]

413.  Martha B. Warren photo album page no. 33  (touring).
