| Summary: | Fred H. Hayner (1869-1920) and his wife Marguerite M. "Minnie" (Sharrock) Hayner (b. 1870) moved from New York State to Seattle sometime before they hosted the 1916 dinner party pictured here. The lavish dinner was part of a dinner dance at the Arctic Club, an event described in the Society Pages of the April 28, 1916, edition of the Seattle Daily Times: "the clubrooms were filled with members and their friends and the decorations were in keeping with the occasion." A full roster of attendees, which includes photographer Frank H. Nowell, can be found in the same article. Handwritten on image: Complimentary Dinner Given by Mr. & Mrs. Fred. H.
