Detail of photograph of front facade at Wheatland taken by Ignatius J. Dengler showing detail of light post. Written on back: "1.) The post to the east is round. 2.) The square posts shown by Miesse, and by stoner do not show. 3.) The step to light the lamp post appears idnentical with the one in 2.) above. 4.) Note: the chairs on the porch, the plants in front of the porch, and the limbs of the tree in front of western side appear to be indentical - in time. As to the lamp on Dengler's post, is it the same Coe photographers say yes; and no?"
