The only identifying detail this glass negative carries is a single word, "Upshur," which the Bain News Service recorded without verification. It may name a town, a county, or a person with that surname. George Grantham Bain built his news photo service in New York in the early 1900s, and it supplied newspapers across the country with pictures of politicians, disasters, sporting events, and street scenes. With no date recorded, the exact subject and year are best confirmed by comparing the negative with related items before drawing firm conclusions about the scene.
