The photograph shows one of the Indian shacks on Indian Lot on the rise across the road on the right, two horses and buggies rounding the bend, a dory, a cat boat (?), a canoe and the "sunken vessel", probably the Schooner Palestine.. The white barn on the left belonged to William Gilman Parker, Deacon Henry Higgins Clark’s son-in-law. The dark shed-like building at the edge of the water was part of the Deacon’s shipyard.

While the photograph is old and in disrepair, up close the desks and chairs can be seen to shine indicating that, if not new, they were at least kept very clean. The side wall on the left of this old school was constructed of boards tightly nailed together. The back wall was painted brick. The drawings of children with pinafores, pinned to the left wall, were done by the children and in crayon. We know that the photograph was taken in October from the owls and black cats and autumn leaf décor, still universally used in school rooms around Halloween.
