Second Morses Line Store

The second J. Morse line store when under the proprietorship of J.M. Hill, Jr. The store, which gave the hamlet the name Morses Line, straddled the international boundary. Boundary marker no. 621 is positioned in-between the two sets of steps, while the store sign overhead indicates the "Canada" side and "U. S. A." side of the building. This postcard view is from "A History of Franklin, 1789-1989," p.108 (photograph provided by Wilfred Rainville, of Morses Line.)
