Photo of a town. Streets appear to be muddy and wet, and a path runs along a post and pole fence down from the foreground of the image into the town. A boardwalk runs partially along one side of the street in the foreground. A number of houses and buildings are visible, several with smoke coming from their chimneys. All appear to be wooden construction. Bare-branched and evergreen trees are scattered throughout the buildings. A number of buildings are numbered in white, identified by the legend on the back of the photo. Number one is a church, with a steep gabled roof and a steeple. Number two is a two-story building, white, with a single-story extension and a covered porch area extending from the first floor and a small dormer window on the far end of the roof. Scaffolding has been attached to the end of the building. Number three is a two-story gabled building, long, with a square store front with three double-hung windows above an awning-style roofline that runs above the first story of the building. This extends to a salt-box like roof on the back of the building. Number four is a long, single-story building, with a square front and a covered porch. Number five is a dark colored, gabled building with two visible stories. It is surrounded by a plank fence, and appears to have two entrances, one on the narrower front facing the road and one on the side of the building. Two double-hung windows appear on the second floor, and the door on the side is bracketed by a second pair of windows. Smoke is visible from the chimney towards the front of the building.

This photograph was likely taken between 1893-1897 during a class outing to a location near Forest Grove, Oregon, possibly during a field trip to collect botany specimens.

Black and white image of a woman standing next to the rear wheel of an antique automobile. She wears a cloche hat and a fur coat, beneath which can be seen a knee-length skirt and a loose top with bold dark stripes. The landscape in the background seems to be typical of Eastern Washington.
Black and white image of a child in a short dress and coat holding an armful of wood. The child also wears a fitted cap of some sort. Note the power lines on the house in the background and the outhouse and wagon to the right of the image. Chickens can be seen scratching in the dirt around the outhouse.
Sepia-toned studio image of a man in a uniform. He wears gloves, a sash with a star and from which hangs a sword, and an old-fashioned cocked hat with white feathers and an emblem on the side. He stands at attention, staring off to the side.
Black and white image of a white, two-story gabled building with double front doors and curtains in the double-hung, single-paned windows. There is a covered front porch, and a rail fence runs in front of the building, which appears to be somewhat overgrown. A sign at the very top of the front facade reads 'Washington Grange No. [illegible]'.
Black and white image of several men putting what appear to be the finishing touches on a large, two-story gabled house. One man stands on a porch with a child at his knee, two others are on the roof and a third standing on scaffolding at the roofline. The railing on the porch, staircase, and second floor is an alternating square pattern, and there is minimal scrollwork at the top of the porch supports. The house sits in a large, vacant field with a thick grove of pine trees in the background.
