The rear of a large auditorium with a curved roof and rows of windows stands behind bare trees at Mountain Lake Park, Maryland. The printed caption gives the hall a capacity of 5,000, suggesting the scale of the summer assemblies held there. Mountain Lake Park was a Chautauqua assembly ground and resort in Garrett County, and its auditorium hosted lectures, music, and other programs for seasonal visitors.
