    Likely from the making of en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Battle_Cry_of_Peace which was co-written and co-directed by J. Stuart Blackton [ en.wikipedia.org/wiki/J._Stuart_Blackton ] He could certainly be the guy in the middle with a cap and glasses.

    Page on The Battle Cry of Peace (1915) at www.stanford.edu/~gdegroat/NT/oldreviews/bcop.htm has a transcription of a review from the New York Times, August 7, 1915, which includes the sentence,"This new film has been devised and completed by Commodore J. Stuart Blackton of the Vitagraph Company under the inspiration of Hudson Maxim." Whether "Commodore" is an authentic title is not clear, but this accounts for the writing (mis-spelt) on the negative.

    Blackton was elected as "Commodore" of the Atlantic Yacht Club (on Coney Island) He was also elected commodore of the Motor Boat Club of America. Might explain the yachting cap.

    Taking a look at civilwar.gratzpa.org/wp-content/uploads/2012/03/FergusonW... I wondered if the guy to the right of the 3 on horseback might be Joseph Kilgour. But if so, he's hardly dressed as George Washington -- the role he played in Battle Cry of Peace. Another pic of Kilgour at www.findagrave.com/cgi-bin/fg.cgi?page=gr&GRid=11262436 And another picture of Kilgour at lower right in oval frame in the [New York] Sun., August 05, 1917, Section 4 Pictorial Magazine, Image 35 chroniclingamerica.loc.gov/lccn/sn83030431/1917-08-05/ed-... A substantial piece promoting Battle Cry of Peace is in The Daily Ardmoreite., October 02, 1916, Page 3 chroniclingamerica.loc.gov/lccn/sn85042303/1916-10-02/ed-...

    See
    Vitagraph gun (LOC)
    for the resolution to which movie is being filmed. It is Kilgour. He played a Ruritanian commander in "Battle Cry of War," to be a sequel to Battle Cry of Peace, but probably not finished or released.
