Photograph clipped from the Greer Citizen, Wednesday, November 7, 1984. Shows a wagon full of people on Trade Street on August 8, 1911. The building on the left is Charlie Drace's photo studio; that building was torn down and replaced by the Bennett Building (now Barista Alley). The building in the center is gone and is now the open patio for Los Portales, which now stands in this photo's center-right gap. The house in the picture was on the corner of Trade and Victoria Streets, and was the home of Dr. R. L. and Emma Marchant.
The group in the photo had just returned from a day's outing to Powder Springs near Duncan. It included Homer Howell, Annie Berry, Minnie Howell, Gus Lister, Herb Henry, Mary Ballenger, Carl Howell, "Little" Jim Howell, Jamie Johnson, Allen Green, Flora Johnson, Nora Berry, Agnes Mosteller, Clara Ballenger, Florence Henry, and Edna Ballenger.
