DescriptionView of a mill town, with a large factory, located in a river valley, surrounded by wooded hills. A church steeple and other buildings, including houses, are also visible. Another view depicts a flooded street with a sign that reads "BOOTS & SHOES." A man wearing rubber boots stands in the floodwaters in the street. A third view depicts a dirt road lined with trees, probably elm trees. Another picture is a group portrait of the members of the Deluge Fire Company with their hose cart and their dog, which appears to be a dalmation. Other photographs include close-ups of lilies and grapes.
