Prospect Hotel "tally-ho coach" (?)

What may be the former Prospect Hotel "tally-ho coach" appears in front of the recently completed Bethel Inn around 1915. Once utilized to carry travelers throughout the hills of western Maine and northern New Hampshire, such conveyances lingered on as private hotel vehicles even after the automobile's appearance. Special occasions and outings, like that shown here, represented the final flourish of the stagecoach era in and around Bethel.

Circa 1915
