Yorkton's First Fair - Robt. N. Taylor is seated in the front row, right, with hat in hand. The others seated include Joel Reaman and his three daughters. Three fiddlers are seen in the second row-not identified, but a fiddler was always a welcome guest at any gathering in the early days. The oxen seen were also a very necessary part of any gathering.
Names on back are Bill Bowers(?) and Wes Spence who are standing posing. Buildings in background are store fronts. A.O. Routley had a Massey Harris business in Rosetown 1930-46. Oxen were not used after 1910.
Two men wearing suits are riding in the buggy. One man is holding reins and a whip. They are in a grass meadow - no road. The ox has shoulder and side scars, probably from harness used for plowing.
