Photograph of a view of the Louis Wolf Monument, possibly a burial vault, on a know overlooking Temecula Valley, ca.1900. A pell-mell fence is shown surrounding the monument, which is shown at center, built from what appear to be pieces of bed frames and scrap wood. At center, a long stone slab that suggests a tomb or casket is pictured behind a tall, molded pillar which is connected to it.
