    looks like the good capt. grounded his ship on Fire Island in April, 1911: "The North German liner Prinzess Irene arrived safely at her pier in Hoboken at 1 o'clock yesterday afternoon, under her own steam, and looked none the worse for her eighty-three-hour rest on the Fire Island sandbars. Capt. F. von Letten-Peterssen, who was in command of the liner, said that, so far as he could tell, the only damage the vessel sustained was the breaking of the frame of the rudder post." query.nytimes.com/gst/abstract.html?res=9506E1DE1031E233A...

    Great portrait :) The light here is very nice and the sharpness is amazing compared to such an old photo :)

    In 1911 when the ship was grounded. The ship was interred in 1914: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/USS_Pocahontas_(ID-3044)

    >This is most likely for when the ship was interred in 1914: I don't get that from the wikipedia link. It says Peterssen was captain of the ship when it grounded.
