Crowd at Gaynor notification 9/3/13 (LOC)

from The Library of Congress

  • Wystan said:
    LOC -- your date is wrong, should be 1913.
  • Kristi (LOC P&P) said:
    Wystan, Thanks for the heads up on the date. We will get that corrected when we update the record.
  • Wystan said:
    William Jay Gaynor had served a term as reform mayor of New York. Because the incorruptible Gaynor would not cooperate with the Tammany machine, Tammany refused to nominate him for a second term. So Gaynor was renominated by an independent group, and accepted their nomination. In this photo, the independents notify Gaynor of the nomination, just before he sailed to Europe on a vacation voyage. On September 10, exactly a week after this photo was taken, Gaynor died of a heart attack, in his deck chair aboard the steamship Baltic, 400 miles off the coast of Ireland.
