Summary

This was Miss Elizabeth Horine with one of her many piano students in the Parish Hall at St. Paul's Lutheran in Burkittsville sometime in the mid-1970s. Since the student is well-dressed, the photo was probably taken at one of Miss Horine's annual recitals at the church.

Karen Hiltner Ms. Elizabeth taught piano in the community for many years. She hosted a piano recital every year in the Parish Hall. She was also the organist at St. Paul's.
