This is my final photo of the late Kelly Poling's Mural in Excelsior Springs, Mo. You can view the other two here and here.

This scene really makes me wonder what was actually happening. My first thought was a prisoner being delivered. The man on the left by the coach seems to be restrained or perhaps he is an undertaker. Someone is definitely garnering their attention and something is about to happen. I'm sure it has something to do with the history of Excelsior Springs. I haven't received any answers to my queries, so for now, I will just have to wonder. Again, this is my tribute to the artist Kelly Poling who died in December of 2018. Someday I hope to go to Chillicothe, Missouri where he has several murals. I will choose one of these for the current Street Photography contest, I'm just not sure which one it will be.
