Wearing glasses, Donald Holt is standing directly behind Mr. Ferguson. Lillian Wheeler may be standing to the left of Donald Holt. Wearing a cap, Henry Thurston is standing on shore, on the right side. Lucy Rumsey Holt is standing at the far right, near the bench. Caption reads: "Mr. Ferguson and the Turtle." |
