Scope and contentPosed image of a young boy on a raft; at sea. Text on card includes: Alone on the raft in the twilight, / Afloat on the mighty deep, / A poor sailor lad was lying, / On the drifting planks asleep / For his vessel was wrecked in the tempest / That swept all the crew to rest, / All but the poor little sailor boy, / Alone on the ocean's breast.
