DescriptionMen and boys kneel during a procession through Belen, New Mexico possibly near Sixth Street and Becker Avenue. They are kneeling in the dirt in an open field behind a tall banner that reads "League of the Sacred Heart Parish of Our Lady Belen, N. M.". Women with black umbrellas walk in a procession along in a street in the background. The kneeling men have their hats off and are facing the procession. There are two water towers in the background.
