Three surnames give this negative its title, Lindley, Christensen and North, though the record notes that these come from unverified caption cards. The plate belongs to the George Grantham Bain Collection, the work of the Bain News Service, a New York agency that Bain founded around 1899 to supply news pictures to newspapers. Its glass negatives were made for quick reproduction in print, so many record people and events of the day. With no date or confirmed caption in the record, the exact occasion remains open, but the glass plate format places the picture within the agency's active years in the early twentieth century.
