This photo shows Byron Rhode with a kitten, Pat, and Reverend B.F. Oswald's dog, Max, sitting on a porch. A handwritten note on Side 2 reads, "Above all notice "Pat" your new "bruvver". He is on Byron's knee. Notice that he features prominently in these pictures. Also my slippers to momma's disgust." The author of the note is unidentified but might have been Esther Oswald (Jordan McCullough), daughter of Reverend Oswald, annotating pictures taken to send to her brother, Elmer, a U.S. Army sergeant stationed overses at the time (WWI).
