Subject matter: Stork, figure and other objects placed in the nest by the Stork, tied to items in the poem.

As to the 1845 date referenced in the title. Charles Walter McCutchen grandfather of. Charles McCutchen was also a Baptist based on historical records, clearly had roots in New York & NJ so it is believed that the piece was done by the Artist & personalized for Mr. Charles Walter McCutchen, hence the referenced 1845 birthdate/bridge in the title of the piece.
