Title

Crates in a train, c. 1900

Description

Piles of crates in a train with 'Proof' written on the bottom, possibly filled with materials required for Chas. T. McCarty's pineapple farm. The cabinet card was possibly sourced by Chas. T. McCarty, most likely referring to Charles T. McCarty, who grew pineapples in the 1880's in Fort Pierce before being shot January 30, 1907 by W. C. Rawlinson over a property dispute.
