Deadman's Island [showing squatters' houses]

Photograph is accompanied by a label reading: "This is the famous Dead Man's Island. Island or Peninsula? Off Stanley Park. This picture shows the shacks of the squatters. It was the intention to build a sawmill on this site, but the citizens objected. Trees were cut down and the residents notified to vacate. Nothing became of the granting of a lease over the island - Timms Photo."
