Visible in image: Gussie Hodgkins, first mate on the steamboats PERCY V and WINTER HARBOR, stands on the Bath wharf where the steamboats to and from Popham Beach would moor. He holds a runner sled in one hand and carries parcels under his other arm. The caption in Jane Stevens's book One Man's World states that Hodgkins is "coming aboard with Christmas freight for Popham villagers."
