The passenger depot in downtown Maxton was located behind a two-story building, which held Mrs. Harker’s Millinery Shop. Harker’s first husband, Capt. Frances Marion Wishart, was killed by members of the Henry Berry Lowery Gang, and her second husband was owner of The Scottish Chief. In the background is the grade school and homes along Florence Street. The photo was taken circa 1910. Photo courtesy Maxton Historical Society.
