Orphans? They all appear to be about the same age, each has the same haircut, and the dresses are somewhat ill-fitting. Such a bunch of cuties!

For the longest time, I thought these were two children. Eventually, I realized that the person in the back is a woman. She's just a bit small.

The scan of the back of the photograph didn't come out. It reads:
