On Elm Street near the Bridge - The Yellow House - Postmark 1922

"Elmdale House" as it was called because of the  beautiful elms surrounding it. And it was in a dale, just below the bridge on Elm Street. It was large and it could accommodate many as it had been a tavern and livery stable for the stopover of the Concord Coach when it went through. It was last operated by Al Shaw, a lumberman, and for a short time by Herman Kardinal. (Editor's Note; The house is now owned by Larry Frates.)
