Film negative showing a view of the Monmouth House seen from across a intersection. The large multi-story hotel has an American flag flying from the domed center roof. A horse-drawn carriage travels down the dirt road leading to the hotel. Monmouth House was the first major hotel in Spring Lake, completed in 1876. It burned down in 1900, was rebuilt, and remained until 1974. Spring Lake was a coastal resort area popular in the late 19th and early 20th century., Digitization and cataloging has been made possible through the generosity of David Marriott Morris, Eleanor Rhoads Morris Cox, and William Perot Morris in memory of Marriott Canby Morris and his children: Elliston Perot Morris, Marriott Canby Morris Jr., and Janet Morris and in acknowledgment of his grandchildren: William Perot Morris, Eleanor Rhoads Morris Cox, Jonathan White Morris, and David Marriott Morris., Edited.
