DAR steamship SS Prince Rupert at the Digby Wharf on the St. John - Digby service. Running in direct competition with the Bay of Fundy Steamship Line's SS Monticello, Prince Rupert's superior performance forced the competing Monticello off the run. Photograph estimated to be circa 1895. Photographer is Paul Yates based on an identical photograph in Tony Kalkman's Collection marked as taken by Paul Yates: Tony Kalkman Facebook Post July 17, 2023

Note:The vessel has sometimes been identified as the Bay of Fundy Steamship Company's SS Monticello. However the vessel in this photo lacks Monticello's walking beam and white paint scheme. This longer vessel is the DAR's SS Prince Rupert.
