Donor-supplied Notes"At camp on Cape Rosier. David and two other, younger, unknown toddlers. I don’t know who the adults are. Loadin up a VW bug in Orrington, adults and their kids unknown. Mark as toddler climbing porch stairs at Orrington house. David interacting with Mark. Circa 1956: Fancy birthday party layout on dining room table in Orrington. School bus arrives, and the birthday party surges up the hill from the Wests’ house to the Dietrich house. Mary Lou’s party, I think. Nine candles on the cake. Mary Lou blows them out. Change of scene—Mark at the window, snow outside, Orrington."
