Ingersoll of Point Bonita Lighthouse looks upward at the flag as his daughter Estelle “dips the colors” to salute and officially welcome the Great White Fleet to San Francisco on May 6, 1908. It was a great honor for a lighthouse keeper’s daughter to be chosen to perform the patriotic task. (Courtesy of Nancy DePue-Allen)
