"Mrs. Gill" was the House Mother of the Teacher's Dorm during its earliest days. This image shows her outside the dorm's back door, dressed in a long dark, short-sleeve dress, feeding two cats. Three concrete steps lead up to the door with a metal garbage can on each side. A window is visible in the door and on each side of the door in the white horizontal siding of the wall.
