Photograph of three women (one is Mrs. Dean Mason, 340 LaFayetter Place, daughter of Harriet W.R. Strong) standing on the porch or balcony with their hands on the wooden rail of the Pio Pico Adobe residence in Whittier which overlooks the San Gabriel River, ca.1888-1892. The women wear long-sleeved shirts tucked into long skirts as they look off the railing of the house. They wear their hair up and hold their hats in front of them.
