            Garthby, St-Jacques Street, looking west from the intersection with St-François Street, about 1918. Remarkable photograph as for the details that we find there: the car, the wooden sidewalks, the architecture of the buildings, the clothes of the passers-by. Taking in account the clothes people are wearing, picture was probably taken on a Sunday, after mass.
            The car is a Ford T 1916 or 1917 (identified by the shape of the rear window, the shape of the radiator at the front and the shape and type of the headlights).

            Garthby station, its cement platform overlooking the tracks. The architecture of the station is typical of the stations built at that time. On the facade facing us is a sign with the inscription "Garthby".
            In the foreground, on the cement platform, a cart of the type pulled by hand and a milk can placed on it. To the right of the station, a buggy to carry passengers; a horse is harnessed to it.
            On the front of the station overlooking the tracks are two benches with a wrought iron side structure. A luggage rack with two wheels at the front is leaning against the wall. On a small gallery accessed by three steps are some milk cans.
            To the left and a little bit in the background and moving away towards the background, we see the main railroad and two secondary branches, one on the left and the other on the right. On each of these sidings is parked a freight car.

            We see a small buggy, pulled by a goat. One child is seated in the buggy and driving it. A man stands in the background of the buggy with a little girl in front of him. Gaspard Lemay, Noël Lemay's oldest son, is standing to the left of the man. Valmore, Noël Lemay's second child, stands in front of the goat and holds it by its horns. In the background is a 1910's automobile (partial rear view). The other man and the two other children are unidentified.

            This is a picture of the Brompton Pulp and Paper office in Garthby (now Beaulac-Garthby). The building is on one level and relatively small. The walls are covered with wooden slats. The soffit is decorated with two rows of small vertical elements called "dentils". The upper corners where the walls meet are decorated with "triglyphs" and "drops" at their base. The façade has a gallery whose roof covers the entire width of the building. The gallery opens on the left and on the right. The roof of the gallery is supported by four columns equally distributed from left to right. The two columns at the left and right ends are square and topped with a simple abacus. The two columns in the center are round and curved, the lower part being more domed than the upper part; they are surmounted by four Ionic-style volutes. The façade of the gallery is covered with horizontal boards. A panel equivalent to about 15% of the width of the gallery is fixed in the center of its façade. The year of construction of this building, 1920, is indicated by raised numerals. A sign on the front edge of the roof covers 90% of its width. It reads "BROMPTOM PULP & PAPER CO. in capital letters.

            Item is a photograph of six people pictured in two cars. The cars are parked on a road with trees in the background. There are four people visible in the car on the left, and two people visible in the car on the right. The woman in the car on the right is Georgiana Lemay, Noël Lemay's sister. The cars both carry New Hampshire license plates, one of which was issued in 1909. The location of the photograph is unknown, though the New Hampshire license plates may indicate New Hampshire as the location.
