A slightly out-of-focus photograph, from left to right, of Mertie West, Ruth A. Care and Colin D. Care conversing and crossing a road. The road stretches across the foreground. Mertie West and the Cares cross the road in the near distance at center. They are captured in motion as they walk towards camera. Mertie West appears to engage in conversation with Ruth Care while they walk. Colin Care holds Ruth by the arm at right and looks to the camera. Behind them, a lawn runs alongside the road. Several other people mill about the lawn area. In the background, an animal cage sits at left, trees stand at center and a brick building stands at right. Patches of white dot the bottom edge and larger streaks flank the lower left and right edges.
