Description
Photograph of a group of people standing on the porch of the Baxter Block building at the corner of Lemon Avenue and Myrtle Avenue, 1886. At center, approximately twenty individuals are gathered together on the porch of a two-story building with clapboard siding. On the dirt road in front, two small children stand, facing the viewer.
