Jerry's words (in 2015) about this painting: "I was at my grandma's house Adela Hurst which is married to Hazen Rego Hurst around 30 years ago doing some chores for her...

"One time I was fixing her washer and dryer and toilet when I got that all done she sat me down. When she was feeding me dinner and while I was eating she went downstairs and brought this picture back up, she said was given to my grandpa Hazen Hurst on his 14th birthday by Frederick William Hurst his grandpa.
