photographic paper photography (process) Long focal length shot of Hale from Dam. Shows steel bridge across foreground. This Is one of the earliest pictures of Hale for the construction is hardly or not yet complete which means It was taken in 1893 or 1894. The incompleteness is indicated by the steps coming down to the left and right of the arch doorway. A big gap is seen below the east step both left and right. The dirt or sidewalk are not yet graded up to the foot of the lowest step and the grounds around the building are still raw from construction. No grass is visible near the building. The same gap below the steps can be seen in 12-12 which puts this probably taken in 1893.</div>
