Cabinet Card of U S R C Richard Rush. 8x5". Photo by Tabor of San Francisco. Bottom notes- U.S. R. C. "Richard Rush", on her departure Jan. 2nd, 1866 in search of the "Amethyst". "From 1877 through 1881 Rush completed four cruises in Alaskan waters. Thereafter the cutter was based in Port Townsend, Washington.[2] In 1882 Rush was at San Francisco where the Royal Navy corvette HMS Comus took aboard the Marquis of Lorne, Governor General of Canada, and his spouse the Princess Louise, daughter of Queen Victoria, for their trip to Victoria, Canada.[4] An anonymous note threatened the British ship with destruction when the couple boarded, but a search by the crew of Richard Rush yielded nothing, and Comus was escorted out to sea by the American cutter." from wikipedia.
