Black and white photograph of Nellie Cavell (née Pitton) standing in front of her future husband Fred Cavell's car on Union Street in Vancouver after her engagement. During World War II Cavell was declared an enemy alien due to the fact she was working at the Italian Consulate. She was required to report monthly to the local authorities.
