Tifton, Tift County GA. I figure the man being witnessed to is pontificating to the young Mormons about all he's witnessed in his own life, and judging by his circumstances, it's been quite difficult.

Fitzgerald, Ben Hill County, GA, Circa 1940. (Here's one from my personal archives, and a favorite at that...My first job was at this library, when I was 14, and I was one of the last employees to ever work on the bookmobile, along with Mrs. Joyce Jackson and Mrs. Patricia Netter. We used a different vehicle, though not much less an antique than this one. The program was retired around 1986, if memory serves me correctly.)
