The inscription on drawing Somes Sound, Looking Southerly, 1850 (inv. 178), presumbably by Stevens, reads: "Lane made this sketch sitting in the stern of the boat General Gates as we slowly sailed up the sound at Mt. Desert on a lovely afternoon of our first excursion there. He painted a small picture from this his first sketch of that evening. It was sold by Balch to Mrs. Josiah Quincy Jr. and to Mackay."
