I have no proof but I suspect it is the name tag from his travel bag.

Successor to the White Diamond Line of sailing packets which failed in 1857, they bought up many of their ships and continued the Liverpool - Boston trade as George Warren's Line of Liverpool and Boston Packets. The company started passenger steamship sailings in 1865 as George Warren & Company. They became the White Diamond SS Company in 1898. In 1912, Furness Withy & Company acquired a controlling interest in the company and a new company - George Warren & Company (Liverpool) Limited was formed. In 1922 the the name became Warren Line (Liverpool) Limited and in 1934 they took over the Johnston Line and Neptune Steam Navigation Company to form the Johnston-Warren Line. They became known as the Furness-Warren Line in 1947.

So do u agree it's a luggage/cargo label and do u think it's from the 1865 time period or 1900s?
