Description
Access to this collection is generously supported by Arcadia funds. John Ernest Teel is the cousin of Mary A. Teel West Shepard and Hattie (Harriet) M. Teel Cline. According to the text from the negative sleeve, this photograph was taken about 1912. This date is incorrect as Ambrose Cline was not born until 1915.

The group is gathered together in the near distance, right-of-center. A dog approaches the group at left. John Teel is leftmost. He kneels on the grass as he looks towards the dog and wraps an arm around Mary West to the right. Mary West crouches down between John Teel and Hattie Cline at right, wrapping her arms around both of them. Hattie Cline sits in the grass in front and to the right of Mary.
