Description: Deck of USRC Wayanda, ca. 1863. The two seated figures are reportedly Captain J. White and Secretary of State William H. Seward. The shadowy image of Abraham Lincoln under the sail is thought to have been added at a later date. This is one of the earliest photos ever taken aboard a revenue cutter.
