Library of Congress photograph from a series on the Coast Guard cutter Seneca chasing and capturing a rum runner in 1924: view from the stern with the captured boat in tow. A copy is stored here.

The Library of Congress titles this print "[Coast Guard Cutter, USS Seneca chasing and capturing a 'rum runner' 1924: view from stern; rum runner in tow]." The brackets mark a staff-devised title.

The Library marks the caption data as "unverified, old data from caption card," gives the series date as about 1924-1925 and does not state the place. The frame belongs to a four-photograph series filed here: the other frames show armed men aiming at the boat, cases on its deck, and agents examining barrels.
