The record names a judge, Atherley, paired with a second name, Jones, but the title comes from unverified data written on the negative or its caption card, so the identities and the occasion remain uncertain. The image is a glass negative from the George Grantham Bain Collection, which holds the work of the Bain News Service, a New York photo agency founded around 1899 that supplied pictures of public figures and news events to newspapers. Glass plates like this one were the standard for news photography in that era, and their size and clarity help explain why the Library of Congress keeps them as primary documents of early twentieth-century American news.
