Hunting

Ambassador Stanton Griffis stands holding a dead rabbit. This photo is one of four mounted in a folder. The cover of the folder has a seal that reads 'B Dehesa El Molinillo." Below that the folder cover reads, "4 de Noviembre de 1951 - Ciudad Real (Espana). The words below this last photo are handwritten and appear to say, "The last have been the whole of the Spanish people, who regret your departure so profoundly! Good-bye and 'parir [illegible]' Mr. Griffis!! Biosca."
