From Left to Right: Richard K. Sinkler (1944-2007) - son of William Lukens Elkins Sinkler - or possibly Richard's brother, William L. Sinkler, Jr. - Richard would have been about 8 years old when this photograph was taken. People more informed than we may help us to positively identify this child. William Lukens Elkins Sinkler (1919-) Francis Milton Spurling (1896-1958) - sailed for the Sinkler family. The fish was a circa 500 lb. tuna (formerly called "Horse Mackerel" in these waters) - possibly the one described as being harpooned in “Leaves Folded Down” See: “Leaves Folded Down” by Louise E. [Elkins] Sinkler, privately published in a limited edition of 300 copies and a second edition of 500 copies of which the Southwest Harbor Public Library copy is number 228, Haverford House, Wayne, Pa., 1971, pages 109-110.
