Description: Looking west from the Church Family settlement on the east side of the road, the picture shows the unpaved road and Trustees' Office. Beginning to the left of the Office, a board fence runs upwards to just past the first window. At that point, the fence becomes a hitching rail mounted on stone posts. Except for breaks in the rail for passage into the two front doors of the office, the rails runs the length of the Office. A Shaker man walks up the road. Several Shaker men stand in and around the right entrance to the Office.
