    Eugene Foss was Governor of Mass: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eugene_Foss William Jay Gaynor was Mayor of New York City (he died Sept 10, 1913 or 5 months after this photo). en.wikipedia.org/wiki/William_Jay_Gaynor John Whalen shows up in NYTimes searches as being "very active" in the management of the NYGiants, for example: query.nytimes.com/gst/abstract.html?res=9C04E7DE1E3AE633A... According to this web site, on April 10, 1913 the New York Giants opened their season playing the Boston Braves at home (losing 8-0) www.baseball-reference.com/teams/NYG/1913_sched.shtml The NYTimes has a mournful account of the April 10, 1913 game here: query.nytimes.com/mem/archive-free/pdf?res=9B0CEFDF1730E2... This mentions Mayor Gaynor throwing out the first pitch, and mentions General Thomas Barry as being in attendance. Gen Barry Major Gen. Thomas Barry, commanding ing the Eastern Division of the United States Army. Who is Captain Hill

    Harry Angstrom: Thanks for the additional information. In looking more closely at this image, it appears the last individual on the right is, in fact, Col. John Whalen, rather than Eugene Foss. We are going to change the source data and reload the description in Flickr to match.
  • Richard Norton said:
    I think the correct attribution is, from left to right: Thomas Henry Barry (1855-1919), William Jay Gaynor (1849-1913), possibly Eugene Noble Foss (1858-1939), and John Sibley Whalen (1868-1913). Both Gaynor and Whalen died in 1913. Whalen died on 3 May 1913, 23 days later. Gaynor died on 10, September 1913, 153 days later.

    Excellent. Let's hope we don't end up going backwards and repeating the whole nonsense again.
