Logs floating in the Oswegatchie River in downtown Harrisville

The Oswegatchie River filled with logs from a log drive, winding through the center of Harrisville. The Riverside Hotel, its livery, and the main bridge are also in the picture, as well as three men, two boys, and a dog on a large boulder in the river.

Circa 1890-1900. Harrisville, NY.
