The car is a 1939 Packard ambulance according to O'Brien's notes. The owner according to O'Brien was S. E. Corbin and Son Funeral Directors, so it is a hearse? Ambulance and hearse were the same thing? In the background you can see the Worthington Village Green, St. John's Episcopal Church and an little bit of the Kilbourne Building which would have been the Worthington Library in 1939. I'd assume Don took the photo in early December. No snow. A picture across the Worthington Green would be … (2 comments)

I went to the noon gathering on the Worthington Green today, September 11, 2008. There were local firemen and policemen there just as there have been other years.
