    Many of the images in the E.B. Thompson collection are uncredited copies, and this is one of them - see: www.loc.gov/resource/pan.6a36324/

    Hi, I'm an admin for a group called Buoyant - Buoy Images!, and we'd love to have this added to the group!
  • rockcreek said:
    The Mary Washington sank the afternoon of October 5, 1896, springing a leak at its dock at the foot of 11th Street and going under on the Virginia side of the river. See "Sank at Anchor in River" in that day's "Evening Star".
