1-Serres du
fleuriste d'Alcantara. Aujourd'hui des condos.
2- Notre maison
montrant 4 blocs. En avant, partie à 2 étages. Au milieu droit, portion à 3 étages. Au milieu gauche, cours
qui sera construit plus tard. En
arrière, un garage construit par David. Ce contrat à fait découvrir
cette maison à Eugène. Ce garage sera
remplacé par un duplex construit par Eugène.
Le voisin plus à
l'arrière est une maison en brique de 2 étages ou habitaient les Wright. Une famille d'anglophones avec
accent british qui n'ont jamais parlé un
mot de français. Ils travaillaient à la construction de bateaux à la Canadian Vickers et prenaient un coup solide.
3- Dépotoir
domestique ( dump ) dans un fossé ou de la terre avait été retirée pour construire la voie ferrée le long du
fleuve. C'était fréquent à l'époque.
On y a jeté plusieurs
boîtes d'argenterie ciselée, ternie et encombrante!
4- Grosse maison
de 3 étages en bois avec une galerie sur 3 faces et colonnade en bois. Maison du sieur Tétrault puis une
famille d'italien sympathique, les
Solico et finalement de Mme
Benoît avant d'être démolie. Je pense que les
fleuristes d'Alcantara y ont habités un certain temps avant d'acheter
leur propriété 1.
5- Dépendance de 2
étages de la maison 4 comprenant écurie, garage et logis de l'intendant au deuxième.

This chilling stand-alone suspense thriller from bestseller Jackson (Without Mercy) brings every parent’s biggest fear to life—the disappearance of one’s child. Nightmare-plagued Ava Garrison still can’t remember the details of the night her two-year-old son, Noah, went missing from her Washington State island home two years ago, but her memory is starting to return now that she’s stopped taking the medications she believes contribute to her nightmares. To add to her woes, Ava suspects her shifty husband, Wyatt, is cheating on her with her therapist. Even worse, Ava must prove her innocence after she becomes a prime suspect in a string of brutal murders. Fortunately, she can turn for help to rugged stable hand Austin Dern, who rescues her after she takes a plunge off the dock from which Noah may have fallen the night he disappeared. Multiple red herrings and a host of sinister characters help keep the pages turning until the explosive conclusion. Agent: Robin Rue, Writers House. (Aug.)Bestselling author Jackson deftly takes readers to the edge of sanity--and back--in a gripping novel where a mother's worst fear is only the beginning of a terrifying nightmare, and the truth is more dangerous than she can imagine.

So Nan takes out an ad: Rooms to rent for the summer in a beautiful old Nantucket home with water views and direct access to the beach.
