Here our photographer managed to get everything out of focus — foreground, background, everything. Even so, we can recognize a couple of the young women, though we still don't know their names. (No identifying notes on this one.)
In the background at left is the library on Fourth Street, so I suppose they are standing on the sidewalk leading up to the high school.
I don't know quite what to make of this caption. "Finnis" is not unknown as a man's name around this time, but I can't track down any women by that name, and with no further information about this young woman, I'm stuck.
On the other hand, given that this is the last in a long sequence of shots around the high school and M.E. Church on Fourth Street, it may simply be the album-owner's devil-may-care way of spelling finis, i.e., the end.
