The title names a lieutenant, Jesse W. Glover, but the record notes that the name comes from caption cards and has not been verified, and no date is recorded. The print is a 5 x 7 inch or smaller glass negative from the Bain News Service, a New York photo agency founded by George Grantham Bain around 1899. Bain's staff supplied newspapers with portraits and news photographs of military figures, public events and everyday life in the early twentieth century. Because the caption information is uncertain, the negative is best read as a document of the agency's working method, with the sitter's identity still to be confirmed.
