            In this photo, young girls dressed as angels on Corpus Christi. They are dressed in white clothes, a scarf around their head and wear wings. They look at the photographer, hands clasped and with a serious facial expression.
            The young girls are installed on either side of a staircase leading to the gallery of Cléophas Grégoire's family house.

            The gallery is decorated with fabrics that are hung in the middle of the roof of the gallery. The tissues unfold downwards to the left and to the right. They frame a temporary altar placed on the floor of the gallery. Under this altar, other tissues that descend in front of it.

            At the top, where the fabrics deployed on the left and right are attached, an inscription in white letters on a strip of black fabric: " VENITE ADOREMUS". Above this inscription, a cross made with branches of fir or pine and three small flags on the left and two on the right.

            This photo shows a view of the village of Garthby Station. The village is built on a hillside.

            The road in the foreground is dirt and almost all the houses are covered with unpainted boards. In the center are two larger buildings: the school and the church.
            In the foreground, from left to right, the main railroad track and two yard tracks, one on each side of the main track.
            In the midground, on the right, the village sawmill and across the railroad, many wood piles.

            This photo, taken from the second or third floor of Henri Vachon's house, shows two steam trains meeting. The view is facing south.

            In the foreground, the #1 road towards Weedon. On the right, a field. Telephone and electric poles line the road on each side. They are painted white at the base to be more visible at night.
            In the background, Aylmer Lake and its southern shore in the distance. On the right, Price Island.

            A freight train is running on the main track closest to the lake. It is heading south (towards Weedon). A little to the right, a passenger train heading north (towards Disraeli) is waiting on the siding for the freight train to pass.

            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.

            This photograph shows a partial view of the lower part of Garthby.
            The view is looking north. The photo was taken from the roof of one of the two boathouses, the northernmost one.

On each of these sidings, a freight car is parked. In the foreground, on the right, the sawmill. Still on the right, a little further on, a rather imposing barge (about 35 feet long). Behind this barge, two warehouses of the Brompton Pulp and Paper Company. In the middle of the picture, to the left of the railroad tracks, the train station. Still on the left, behind the station and going up towards the background, other houses and buildings.

            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).
