From "Hamilton, William J. Alameda County Supervisor Died 11-6-38" folder. From caption on back of photograph: "W.J. Hamilton, chairman of the board of supervisors at the courthouse ground breaking." William J. Hamilton on a podium, delivering a speech. He carries a piece of paper behind his back. In front of him are a bouquet of flowers, a California flag, and a microphone which separate him from the crowd that can barely be seen at the proper left. A group of men sit behind him, all wearing hats. Neighborhood houses are visible in the background.
