Mowing Hay, Hernando Island, ca. 1925 by Cortes Island Museum/Archives
Wilfred Manson mowing hay in a Stag Bay field with daughter Dorothy on his knee. The horse was called "Major Whiskers" because he had a walrus mustache on his lip. Note the former cookhouse, now used as a barn. It has been moved across the field from an earlier location. The roof of a very old barn shows through the trees just above the horse's neck.
