Haldane was a bachelor according to the Wikipedia article. And the negative has "Miss Haldane" written on it. And so it seems unlikely that she should be called "Viscountess Haldane." I'd suggest this might be his sister, Elizabeth. See en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elizabeth_Haldane. NYT of August 31, 1913 query.nytimes.com/gst/abstract.html?res=9D07E6DC123FE633A... confirms that she accompanied him on this visit to the United States.

See query.nytimes.com/gst/abstract.html?res=9F05E6DC1531E733A... for a review of Elizabeth Haldane's 1906 biography of Descartes. The tone of the review conveys as much about the times as the pictures do.

Edward Everett McCall (1863-1924) New York Supreme Court justice, and his wife, the former Ella F. Gaynor. In 1913, Edward Everett McCall was appointed by the governor to the Public Service Commission. in ~~1914~~ 1913 also, Edward Everett McCall was running for mayor of New York City, with Tammany Hall backing. The daughters are Constance (standing) and Ella--Ella married William Maloney in 1915.

Fixed, thanks. I must have been conflating his name with that of writer Edward Everett Hale--totally different guys, obviously!

What is that on the right side of Constance's face?
pennylrichardsca (now at ipernity) said:
If you look at the photo of Constance and the dogs, next to this, you can see that her hat has a veil; I assume it's probably the veil.
Wystan said:
It is likely that McCall was named for the famous 19th-century orator Edward Everett (the windbag who shared the platform with Abraham Lincoln at the dedication of the Gettysburg Cemetery). That truly was an unflattering design on the veil that the young lady wore: it resembles a bad skin disease, or an attack of giant flying insects . . . .

In 1915 Constance was a maid of honor at her sister Ella's wedding to William R. Maloney. In 1924, she's still listed as Miss Constance McCall in obituaries following her father's passing.

I wish they didn't write on the plates like that. Helpful, but... I'm sure they intended all photos to be cropped on printing...
Nice photos etc said:

This is fascinating...a glimpse of the fashion statements of the rich and famous from history. I wonder if Mr. Morgan is rolling in his grave?? ;-)
