An out-of-focus photograph of Alice Gordon posing while standing near the Lacy residence on West Ninth Street. Alice Gordon stands at center, facing slightly right, and glances past the camera. To the left of her, the corner of a house stands along the left edge of the image. Shrubbery stands immediately behind Alice at right. A trench of dirt spans the image behind Alice, stretching between her and the house at left. In the distance, another structure stands behind and to the left of Alice.
