A young woman stands between and slightly behind them, while six children, five boys and one girl, stand on the right, arranged by height. Mr. Kawai worked for Huntington and moved the Japanese house from the Marsh Japanese garden. He also was hired to build the bridge, Torii gates, and bell tower.
