Did they have telephones in those days, Maybe a telegraph pole.

There are phone number connections listed in my copy of the Cumberland Valley RR Directory of 1906, so telephone is possible.

Most likely telephone by the appearance of the pole and insulators on side pins.

Mt Alto Sanitarium Occupational Therapy Shop.

Wow. Is that place still around. Looks like a good safe place for all the liberal snowflakes and they get THERAPY also.

Moving on to Liberty, Pa........

That picture almost looks like a front street for a western movie... almost

I wonder what that is in the lower right corner. Looks like a bridge over a water way. ?

Finally someone noticed........ People have been telling me for years that structures that look like "the west" are not right for the "the east" and I keep tel;ling them that they might want to actually look at a few pictures of what rural PA looked like 100 years ago.

I think you are correct and that there is in fact a bridge there across the entire street - a bit of infrastructure repair there to the right,

There were a few places in my hometown in eastern Ohio where small atreams were bridged like in the above photo.

I don't think the town is much bigger today than when that picture was taken. Pop 248 in 2010

Separate bridge for roadway and walkway? Maybe the walkway was a later addition?
