N/A		N/A	c 1910
			“Remains of late Embassador of Brazil, Sr. Nabuco, on Board USS North Carolina”

Brazilian Ambassador Joaquim Nabuco died in Washington, D. C. on January 17, 1910. Originally his body was to be returned to Brazil by the USS Montana ACR-13 but this was changed to the USS North Carolina ACR-12. A January 27 message from the Secretary of State P. C. Knox to the Brazilian Chargé said in part “--- The Secretary of the Navy informs me that the commanding officer of the North Carolina has been ordered to arrive at Rio de Janeiro on the forenoon of Monday, March 7,---“. This would date the photo sometime between January 27 and March 7, 1910.
More research indicates that Brazil accepted President Taft's offer to transport Nabuco's remains from Washington DC to Hampton Roads VA aboard the Presidential Yacht Mayflower on February 14. Photo was probably taken upon transfer from the Mayflower to the USS North Carolina. Research & Illustration courtesy of the Jimmy Jordan collection.
