Notes The Vanduara, an all-steel screw schooner, was designed by George Lennox Watson and built by D. & W. Henderson in Glasgow in 1886. Owned by Mr. Stewart Clark of Dundas Castle, South Queensferry, for nearly 20 years, she was registered at 337 tons gross (217 net and 450 Thames) and measured 170 feet in length with a 24 foot beam. Sold to J. Mann-Thomson in 1905, he loaned her to the Admiralty for wartime duties as a submarine depot ship between September 1914 and February 1915 after which she was returned to her owner. By 1920, she had been bought by Mersey Docks and Harbour Board prior to passing into American ownership in 1923 when she was renamed Frontiersman.

The author died in 1920, so this work is in the public domain in its country of origin and other countries and areas where the copyright term is the author's life plus 100 years or fewer.

This work is in the public domain in the United States because it was published (or registered with the U.S. Copyright Office) before January 1, 1929.

The official position taken by the Wikimedia Foundation is that "faithful reproductions of two-dimensional public domain works of art are public domain".
This photographic reproduction is therefore also considered to be in the public domain in the United States. In other jurisdictions, re-use of this content may be restricted; see Reuse of PD-Art photographs for details.
