    Possibly at the Naval Review 14 October 1912 in New York, where a couple of other photos of US warships in the Bain collection were taken. Delaware participated in that review--see the Wikipedia article above. There is a Naval Historical Center page on the Mayflower: USS Mayflower (1898-1931, later PY-1) The ship has a long and fascinating history--see the Wikipedia article. According to that article, the Mayflower was the Presidential yacht, so it seems likely this was the naval review mentioned above. I find it amusing that the designation was PY-1, the equivalent of today's "Air Force 1".
