The Daily Maine Fact from Around Maine: A July 4, 1934, film clip in the Hackett Collection at Northeast Historic Film in Bucksport captures a holiday picnic at a tuberculosis sanatorium in Hebron. Staff and patients are seen enjoying three-legged, sack, foot and potato races and a rolling pin toss, in which women hurl rolling pins at a dummy, dressed as a man, hanging by the neck from a tree.
