[People on Bank of Mississippi River]

Hoffman, Peter B.

12-13 individuals are seen standing on the bank of the Mississippi River. The man closest to the photographer, is standing on a branch that is in the river. He is also holding something in his hands and is facing the river. These branch are covering much of the foreground of the photograph. There are more men, women, and children scattered about on the side of the river. One of the children is carrying a pale and is barefoot. There are trees covering the majority of the bank. The right half of the photograph is the bank and trees and the left is the river and a tall hill with two mounds on the other side.
