They originate from the same photograph, two being close-ups. The photograph is in my personal collection. The image does not appear in the Bullard-Shapotkin Air Line book. My suspicion is that the photograph was taken in 1907, possibly between LaPorte and Westville when the line was being graded, but I am unsure. Unfortunately, the photograph has no marking of the reverse as to location and date.Steven R.

(or?) It is possible the group is attending a dedication ceremony, but the lack of women in the photograph makes this possibility slim..." -SRS How about this: perhaps, it is more likely an excursion following a business meeting for prospective investors to tour what has been built/is about to be: (The “Show” following the “Tell”)… which may explain why all attendees are adult males, but none dressed shabbily, nor without a hat. -John Ulloth (JJU) <br />P.S.
