Charles is well-dressed (and clean) for someone that apparently had little. I see a certain pride in his own dignity - but one that allows a certain amount of good humored "fun poking."
Miss M. is certainly a social dynamo. I wonder just what her relationship with Charles was... I see Nell in the second photo (standing behind Miss M) perhaps looking a little envious?
Too bad the little girl is not named - she might well be "still around" to tell the story of this gathering.
Love the pipe!

Looks like Charles is wearing coveralls over his dress clothes - a true gentleman "gardener."
