View of the brick building at 1913-1917 13th Street that was known as the Meginnes block. At the time this photo was taken it housed the Singer Sewing Machine Company and the Pacific Express Company. Welcome A. Farnsworth, agent for the express company, is posed in the doorway and his son, George S. Farnsworth, is sitting in the horse-drawn express wagon. The street is unpaved and wooden barrels stand on the board sidewalk.
