    Peckwater Quad, Oxford. I think it must be this east side, enjoying "after a luncheon" sunshine. The graffiti has been cleaned up! ...

    The Hon. M. Ponsonby at right could be Maurice John George Ponsonby later 4th Baron de Mauley of Canford
  • Niall McAuley said:
    Wow, the morbid looking gent bottom left is F. G. Vyner. Per thepeerage, Frederick Grantham Vyner... He died on 21 April 1870 at age 23 at Greece, murdered by brigands.

    A bit about it here: The captives were not treated poorly. Another Old Etonian, Frederick Grantham Vyner, reportedly ran races and tossed boulders with his captors.

Earl Carven (LOC)

    Typing error, must be Earl of Craven (not Carven), as mentionned on the photograph. Probably this guy: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/William_Craven,_5th_Earl_of_Craven See also this picture: www.npg.org.uk/collections/search/portraitLarge/mw198615/...
  • Art Siegel said:
    This seems right, and he is "William George Bradley Craven, 5th Earl of Craven (31 July 1897 – 15 September 1932".) The photo is dated 7/17/15, and "Viscount Uffington" is crossed out. There is a Times article on 7/12/15 noting the arrival of the 18 year old (and slightly built) Viscount Uffington, 18 years old and on his way to join the Territorial Army in Bermuda. (maybe he's taking his own rifle with him?) He stated that he was leaving New York in 5 days. He was the son of the 4th Earl and his American wife, Cornelia Martin. He became the 5th Earl in 1921, which is probably when Bain changed the caption. query.nytimes.com/gst/abstract.html?res=F70E12F83B5C13738...

    Thanks for noting the error, B-59 and artolog. We'll make the correction the next time we update the record.
