Sure. There is a bottle of alcohol and a Lincoln relative involved.

Got it! Although I'm not sure Robert was there. Was he? Anyway- this was fun!

This is an outstanding guess, Roger, but sorry, not correct!

RE: Extra Credit Questions
Was this photo taken after the Civil War?
So when is this "Old Enough To Know Better" supposed to kick in?

Looks like a troop transport ship.
Looks like it is undergoing some repair/modifications.
Shape is similar to the Sultana, except for the paddle wheel.
So when is this "Old Enough To Know Better" supposed to kick in?

A very good idea, Roger, sorry, not the "Trent" either. (I really think this is a good question btw!)

Hint #2: Please think about hint #1and try to narrow it down!

Good ideas, Gene! This ship certainly had never been used for troop transport, but similar shape to theSultania is "hot" - not the Sultania, but indeed similar vessel.
