Identifier: NEB_02
Alternative Identifier: 579-25
Description: Portrait shows 18 women and 6 men at Whitby, Ontario. The group is posed in front of a large tree on the grounds of a church or school visible in the background. The women are lined up with their hands on each other's shoulders. The men are sitting on the ground in the foreground. Two of them are holding up a sign that says, "CHINA." This probably represents a going away party for 6 of the "Victoria Eight" in Bowles' hometown of Whitby, Ontario.
