Color photograph. Rectangular. Shot landscape orientation. Pictured are eight dinner guests seated at a round table. In the center of the table is a large floral arrangement centerpiece. On the reverse, "5513" is written in blue ink in the bottom right corner. The reverse also includes a small label that lists in handwritten cursive the names of all the individuals in the photo. The names are not written in sequential left to right order, meaning most of them cannot be identified. Lucretia Whitehouse is the third individual from the right. She is wearing glasses and a red and brown top. Elizabeth Whitehouse is the younger woman seated to the right of her, with blond hair and wearing a black dress.
