US Brig Niagara

 * Reason:large, relatively clear image; pretty sure that this is one of few photographs (maybe the only) of the original Niagara.
 * Proposed caption:The original US Brig Niagara raised for the centennial of the Battle of Lake Erie. The Brig Niagara played a pivotal role in defeating the British at the Battle of Lake Erie when Commodore Oliver Hazard Perry transferred from the US Brig Lawrence. It was sunk in 1820 for preservation.
 * Articles this image appears in:U.S. Brig Niagara (replica) USS Niagara (1813)
