She includes her own photographs, postcards, clipped pictures, programs, brochures, etc. Her notes identify each image and list trips and the sights, hotels, travel arrangements. They toured the Netherlands, Belgium, Germany, France, Switzerland; they spent most of the time in France including travels through the contryside. They arrived back in New York August 2 and returned to Newtonville on the train on August 5. Few photographs show her traveling companion and only one appears to show the author and Harriet (leaf 9).
