Melvin Van Every, his honey wagon, and an unidentified girl, likely a daughter. Unfortunately, the photograph isn't clear enough to identify which one. Melvin's youngest daughter was 17 when they moved to El Paso, so this picture was likely taken in Caldwell County Texas.
I believe the photograph was from the collection of Myrtle Amatee Van Every Carleston (1877-1966), Melvin's sister. I received the photograph from a cousin, and I'm sharing it with her permission.
Cool picture. Honey wagon sounded like a euphemism. ;-)
