"Marine Guard" in formation on the ship's main deck, probably while she was at the New York Navy Yard, circa spring 1890.
Photographed by E.H. Hart, New York City.
View looks forward from the quarterdeck. Note the drummer and bugler at the far left. These Marines are armed with "trap-door Springfield" rifles. Broadside guns are IX-inch Dahlgren smoothbores, on iron carriages.
