  captain slack, I had a problem with your link. Maybe this will work better. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/J._P._Morgan,_Jr.. [The problem was that the Wikipedia URL finishes with a period, but Flickr assumes that a period following a URL is not part of the URL!!!!] "John Pierpont ("Jack") Morgan, Jr. (September 7, 1867 — March 13, 1943) was an American banker and philanthropist. He was born in Chicago and graduated from Harvard in 1886, where he was a member of Delta Phi and Delta Kappa Epsilon. He was the son of banking tycoon, J. P. Morgan." Several other photos in this Bain batch are of his father's funeral. See www.flickr.com/photos/library_of_congress/tags/jpmorganfu...
