The caption names a "Leslie" at Harvard, but the record does not say who Leslie was or what the picture shows, and the title comes from unverified data supplied by the Bain News Service on the negative or its caption card. The Bain agency, based in New York, sent photographers and staff across the country from about 1900 into the 1920s, so this glass negative likely reflects that period of newspaper picture work. Harvard University, in Cambridge across the Charles River from Boston, was a frequent subject for such photographers because of its students, faculty and campus life. Viewers should treat the name and location as a starting point for further research.
