DescriptionDrawing of a man in the foreground, meant to represent the Reverand Horace Bushnell of Hartford, talking to a young boy. The man is wearing a top hat and the boy is sitting on what appear to be large pipes. The man is pointing toward several men with pick-axes and shovels digging a trench in the street. There is a house across the street with a woman standing on the porch. A man and woman walk along a sidewalk next to a fence. In the distance a church spire is visible.
