Scene in the ship's after cabin in 1886, when Captain Henry L. Howison was Commanding Officer.
Probably photographed by E.H. Hart, 1162 Broadway, New York City.
Note the fancy oil lamp above the table, pictures and other items on the chest of drawers, and Japanese fan and extensive book shelving on the bulkheads. The large set of identically-bound volumes on the top shelf at left is "The American Encyclopædia".
