- Silent, color moving image footage shot in Thomasville, Georgia of a group of African American fishermen sitting in boats along a body of water and capturing fish with a net. This is followed by footage of a small boy riding a pony. Next, two African American boys load logs into a wheelbarrow. They are assisted by a small white boy playing in a yard. This is followed by footage of a young white boy seated in a highchair, and shots of family in a yard. A woman feeds a squirrel on the front steps of her house, a young boy walks a goat on a leash, a woman poses in a nineteenth-century costume, and people ride horseback. There is footage of an event on a campground, where a small band of men in uniform play horns, and people ride horseback.
