  Perrysburg journal., July 22, 1915, Image 7 chroniclingamerica.loc.gov/lccn/sn87076843/1915-07-22/ed-... has another picture that is likely of the same event. She was "building a summer home for herself at Bridgton, in the Heart of the Maine woods." Better copy of same picture, from NYT, Sunday July 11, 1915 memory.loc.gov/service/sgp/sgpnyt/1915/191507/19150711/00...

  fultonhistory.com/newspaper%202/Auburn%20NY%20Citizen/Aub... suggests that she had owned the property for a few years and found chopping wood pleasant relaxation from her operatic career. Aside: I know from experience that firewood is necessary even in summer in a Maine camp.
