This is one of my favourite pictures in my collection. I love the two horses and the old cabin in the background. It was in my great grandmother Arabella (Mitchell) Mills’ photo album. Like too many old photographs, the people or location aren’t identified.
The man on the far right could be my great grandfather Thomas Edward Mills, but I’m not certain. If it is him, perhaps the photo was taken in the lumberwood near Meagher’s Grant, Nova Scotia, where he worked as a cook.
The picture above was actually digitally restored and colourized from the original below.
