These photographs are archived in California, not Hawaii, because they are part of the papers of Californian Sara Holmes Boutelle who was an architectural historian and wrote a biography of Julia Morgan who designed the YWCA seen here. I am sorry the resolution on these is not higher.
Somewhere my grandmother is mad at me because she got kicked out of Smith about ten years later. However the album turned up and these are good pictures and those can be hard to find. Sorry, Helen Mulford Washburn Harden (ducks and runs).
On the banks of the Charles River in Auburndale, the Norumbega Amusement Park opened in 1897 at the end of what is now the Massachusetts Bay Transit Authority’s Riverside line which runs in the Norumbega right of way. It closed in the 1960s.
Dedicated to my grandmother Helen Blackwell Mulford Washburn Harden. She would have been I think seven or eight in 1914 when these pictures were taken during Camp Anawan’s second summer. Her father founded a camp for boys in northern Pennsylvania but at least where they were there were no camps for girls and my grandmother wanted to go to camp very much. She would have loved Camp Anawan.
