June 21, 1912 A

Subject

Main Street, Pawtucket, R.I.

Description

Notes: Compare this scene with “Bird’s Eye View Pawtucket, R.I.,” sent June 5, 1912. On the face of the card Emma added labels for several buildings – "S & Robinson" and the "Music Hall" – as well as ‘High Street.” It is not absolutely clear who “Lizzie” is, but the weight of the evidence seems to point to Sarah Elizabeth Cotton, daughter of Ben A. Cotton. “Minnie” will write several postcards in care of Jennie, directed to her mother-in-law, Mrs. A.S. Rounds, aka "Lizzie."
