Contrast the postcard view, titled "Entrance Somes Sound, North East Harbor, Me." in SWHPL 7010 with that of SWHPL 12460, which bears the title, "View near Somes Sound, So. West Harbor, Me." Both cards show the Nathaniel Gott House on Greenings Island. The image in SWHPL 12460 would be to the left or south of that in SWHPL 7010 if viewed from the water near Sutton Island. The title is misprinted on this card. It reads, "View near Somers Sound, So. West Harbor, Me." "Gladys" mailed the card to Miss Nena Reed in Seal Harbor from Center, Tremont, Maine on July 2, 1909.

“This vessel was built as a U. S. Navy hospital ship, “The Comfort,” and served in the Pacific during World War II and later served as a U. S. Army transport to bring the troops back home. Reportedly the nurses’ lounge of the vessel had once been hit by a kamikaze in Okinawa. When the Maine Maritime Academy Students went to sea in her as “The State of Maine,” the three padded cells in the former psycho ward of the hospital ship, were still in place. Philip Rich [Philip Clifton Rich (1941-)], who attended the Academy from 1959-1962, bunked in the former isolation ward, which held only five or six cadets, during his junior year and remembers that the plumbing fixtures of the former psycho ward had levers, not regular handles. They used the padded cells on the second deck as storages closets to supplement the cadets’ small storage lockers.” – Meredith Hutchins 01/25/12
