description:
|
The house was built of old railroad ties, plastered with adobe mud and straw. The window frame was no doubt a discard that they found in Dulce when some older building there had been razed. The brush shelter to the right of the picture was a cool summer living area which was a frame flanked with scrub oak bushes. The woman is Hendrina Hospers, a missionary to the Apaches since 1914.
