On p99 ascribes no date to the photograph. On p399 says 1862 under the photo, but 1861 in the caption. On p101, referring to a photograph obviously from the same sitting, says "perhaps" the sitting took place before the death of Willie Lincoln in February 1862. I conclude that 1862 is still the most likely date for this photograph.

For reasons behind the date assignment, see a.62d_date_assignment.
