Description
A makeshift dwelling, part thatched straw, part wood and blankets, sits in a flat clearing on the Santa Anita Ranch owned by Elias Jackson "Lucky" Baldwin in San Gabriel (now chiefly in Arcadia, California). Another small dwelling sits amid trees to the left, and at the back of the clearing is a wood frame bell-tower.
