ABOVE a splendid view looking east on DORCHESTER STREET,in
  SYDNEY. On the LEFT, the wonderful SYDNEY HOTEL.... the center
for all social activities in 1907.... during the hey-day  of the
NEW STEEL PLANT.  On the RIGHT, the new MASONIC building and the
 offices of LAWYER MAC NEIL AND later his son, Donald Mac Neil.

  In the left background  the NEW ROYAL BANK(reddish mortar) and
across Charlotte St, the CHURCH where the present FEDERAL building is.


THE NEXT PICTURE is a rarity...it's a photo of the old MIRA GUT
  RAILWAY STATION,which was located near the present BRIGDE at
 MIRA GUT. A prosperous community in its heyday,with loads of
coal and steel passing thru to LOUISBOURG and with train-loads
of miners visiting the summer wonderland  for their vacations,
this TRAIN STATION was second only to SYDNEY  for activities.


  BELOW....HOLY ANGELS CONVENT located in the northend of Sydney and
looking much as it does today. The trees in front in the picture are
now gigantic  and partially obscure the view.
