Title	Catboat with fifteen passengers in the Mystic River below the highway drawbridge, Mystic.

Place	Mystic River (Conn.) East Main Street (Mystic, Conn.)
Topic	Catboats Sailboats Boats and boating Commercial buildings Children
Theme	Environment Infrastructure Lifestyle
Description	View of a catboat on the Mystic River just south of the East/West Main Street drawbridge, Mystic. The group of fifteen people includes men and women; two children are also visible on the right. Buildings in the background appear to be the Mallory Block to the left, and Washington Hall (the Exchange Block), to the right. A sign on the roof of Washington Hall advertises THOS. H. NEWBURY/HOUSE & SHIP PLUMBING/TIN COPPER & SHEET ___ WORKERS". The bow of a large vessel can be seen to the left, on the north side of the bridge. A horse is visible in front of the building to the right.
Notes	Title supplied by cataloger. Washington Hall, also known as the Exchange Block, was built in 1850 and burned in 1885. Photo appears to document the Mystic flagpole's new location at the corner of Cottrell and East Main Streets, next to Washington Hall. It was moved from the Groton side in 1876. The Mallory Block was later known as the Newbury Block. Probably photographed by Everett A. Scholfield, a professional photographer who worked primarily in Mystic and New London from 1865-1913. Probable date range based on clothing and buildings.
