The caption at the bottom of the photograph reads “Opening of Palmerston North Butts by F M Snelson, Mayor”. A young woman, surrounded by members of the Territorial forces in uniform, is about to open the Rifle Range at Hokowhitu by firing a rifle, held in a cradle, with a rope. Mr and Mrs George Snelson are on the right.
