This picture is of Sealah Phillips, his wife Emma (the first school teacher at "Schammerich Lake School") and his friend Harold Worsley.

Sealah and Emma were married in 1911. Sealah was Pearl May Phillips uncle (her father Frank G. Phillips brother).  It was on his land that the homesteader's shack (picture I previously sent) was converted to a school. The caption on the school picture, in my mother's words..."The 1910 Federal Census indicates that the Phillips lived in the School District #13, Schammerich Lake." And later it is referred to as 'Schammerich Lake School' ".

Sealah Phillips, his wife Emma and Friend Harold Worsley, Castner Falls, Cascade County, Montana
