Walter and Emma Kitching’s home, 1895. To the left stands the boarding house, store, and post office operated by Broster Kitching, who served as postmaster during the transition from Potsdam to Stuart. In the background, the steeple of the Methodist Church, built in 1895, can be seen. The church was constructed on land generously donated by Walter and Emma Kitching, whose contributions played an important role in the development of the young community.
