A neat historic photo, c. 1930.

Taken in Bermuda, 1930. The title of the photo is "Belmont Manor and Golf Club Team, Bermuda".

The two guys on the left are identified as "Stan Thompson" and "Devereux Emmet, Jr." Yes, that's the Stanley Thompson. I presume the other guy is indeed the son of the other Devereux Emmet?

I remember staying @ The Belmont and playing the course - very tight and "sporty".  I remember reading somewhere the place was recently sold; no idea what happened to either the hotel or course.
