The record names this portrait "Comdr. J. Foster Stackhouse," though the title comes from unverified data that the Bain News Service wrote on the negative or its caption card, so the identification should be treated as provisional. The image is one of the glass negatives in the George Grantham Bain Collection at the Library of Congress. Bain's agency supplied news photographs to New York newspapers in the early twentieth century, and its negatives record the fast-moving, pictorial news coverage of that period. The record gives no date, so the sitter's exact years of service and the occasion of the photograph remain unknown.
