View of benches on the porch of the adobe house at Rancho Camulos, near Piru in Ventura County, California. Title devised by cataloger. 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. A print of this image appears in the Huntington Library's Verne Dyson Collection (mssHM 26404) p. 54 (Box 3) with the caption: "Rancho Camulos. Under the porch." Rancho Camulos was established by Ygnacio Del Valle in 1853. Charles Lummis and George Wharton James both published books that associate this site with the fictional character Ramona in Helen Hunt Jackson's novel, "Ramona."
