Scope & content
Inscription on back of copyprint reads "a Yorke Boat. One of the most . . .carriers of James Bay". Chesterfield attempted to edit part of a dog out of the foreground of this image, however, the dog remains on the negatives. Shows part of a dock in the foreground, with the boat in the middle ground, with three large sails, and a cluster of four people upon it. In the distance there are rolling hills dotted with trees, and a vast expanse of sky beyond that.
