Work Description: 
Excellent picture showing mountains and Chautauqua Auditorium. Two men walking in front. This picture was taken from old Engineering because a corner of the brick gym can be seen at the extreme left. This is not quite the same view as 4-3. Here the camera was a few feet south of the view 4-3. The Chautauqua Auditorium is completed and the tree in front of the right pair of arched windows has grown about a foot. This would suggest this was taken in the summer of 1899 or 1900. Notice the changes in the utility pole by the walk at the left. In 4-3 it had four crossarms and a transformer and only two light supply wires from the right. In 4-4 the supply has been increased to four heavy wires, and two crossarms and the transformer have been removed from the pole. Mt. St. Gertrude Academy building is visible at the far right. To the right of the two men a utility trench has been recently excavated and two black pipes stand up. They may be water valves. Two stone steps for alighting from carriages are visible - one for the gym and one for chemistry. Note the discrepancy between the labeled "Oct 03" and my estimate of 1899-1900. My estimate was based on the conclusion that the Chautauqua Auditorium in 4-3 was still under construction. If that is in error then my estimated dates for these two are in error. The fence around Gamble Field appears in 4-3 and 4-4 which probably would seem to put these after 1900. The condition of the Chautauqua Auditorium in 4-3 with big holes where the windows should be is a puzzle. See 4-3.
