There are some wonderful pictures included in this portion of the Wilson/Enke book. Frank and Pearl Cavenee's wedding picture, with a good looking couple, Frank Cavenee and probably his brother next to him, sporting rifles, both slim and handsome. A family picture of Frank and Pearl with Cliff, Lloyd and beautiful Nina. A picture in front of a sod house that Pearl & Frank lived in Montana. It looks like a substantial building. Nina, Bill and Cliff are with her. Then there is a lovely picture of Nina, one of Cliff in the service, and one of Nina and Bill all dressed up.
