View of Halifax from Dartmouth

by

This is a view of Dartmouth Cove, George’s Island and Halifax which looks to be from somewhere on the hilly 200 block of Portland Street behind Linden Lea and St. George’s Lane, whose pond is seen in the foreground. Hazlehurst can be seen at middle right in the trees.
