Mabel Choate (d. 1958)--daughter of Joseph Hodges Choate (1832-1917) and the former Caroline D. Sterling (1837-1929); her father was an attorney who served as US ambassador to England; her mother was one of the founders of Barnard College. Mabel Choate was active in the Republican Party, a supporter of the League of Nations, and trustee of Barnard College. Her family house at Namkeag (in Massachusetts) featured a spectacular modern garden designed by Miss Choate and Fletcher Steele. www.thetrustees.org/pages/335_naumkeag.cfm en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joseph_Hodges_Choate Strangely enough, a character named "Mabel Choate" appeared in several episodes of "Seinfeld," as one of Jerry's parents' neighbors at Del Boca Vista--such an odd name, I suspect it's not a complete coincidence... ? Mrs. Charles Dana Gibson was the former Irene Langhorne, sister of Nancy Astor. Daughter of Chiswell Dabney Langhorne and Nancy Witcher Keene of Danville VA. She posed for some of the Gibson Girl sketches. She died in 1956. www.americanheritage.com/articles/magazine/ah/1975/2/1975...

Hi, I'm an admin for a group called 1910s Fashion, and we'd love to have this added to the group!

This is at the dedication of the Carl Schurz monument on 11 May 1913 in New York City. New York Times story about the unveiling.

Oddly, written on the negative is 3/5/20. Carnegie died in 1919!!
