Grace (photograph)

It depicts an elderly man (named Charles Wilden) with hands folded, saying a prayer over a table with a simple meal.

Most sources indicate 1918 as the year, though Enstrom's daughter Rhoda, born in 1917, claimed to remember being present when the photograph was taken, which might have been around 1920.

While the photograph conveys a sense of piety to many viewers, according to the Enstrom family's story, the book seen in the photo is actually a dictionary.

[2] Likewise, local stories about Wilden "centered more around drinking and not accomplishing very much", than religious observation.

Numerous family members and local historians have also attempted to determine what became of Wilden, but have not been able to locate definitive evidence.
