Residence

Image

Text on front reads: "Residence, Dist. White Creek, Wis." Handwritten on front: "This is my cousin's house." A home with oblong-shaped openings on the porch. The exterior of the porch is covered with strings, presumably for vines to grow on. More buildings can be seen behind the house on the right, and other buildings are to the left among trees. A wire and post fence is along the unpaved street.
