Four children on top of a burro on the grounds of Piru Mansion, in the community of Piru, Ventura County, California. Title devised by cataloger. Identification based on notes by donor Ernest Marquez; this image was among a group marked "Piru." Date range approximated by cataloger based on the year that film negatives came into use and the latest known dates indicated for other Hazard images in the Huntington's collection. This house was built in 1890 by David C. Cook and is now known as the Newhall Mansion after its purchase by Scott and Ruth Newhall. It has also been called the Piru Mansion or Cook Mansion.
