Looks like EASTSIDER heading home and there's that Blair fellow in the background.

Nice one Kevin

I've seen a smaller version of this one before and the tug was identified in the caption as WILLIAM & JOHN. This could be the case in your enlargement as long as she was Wm. & JOHN. Apparently the wherry on the right is the GEORGE HOPE.
