A glass negative titled *Glebe property, Miss Bowie* names a specific landholding and a person, though the title comes from notes the National Photo Company wrote on the negative sleeve and has not been independently verified. A glebe was land set aside to support a church or its minister, so the subject likely concerns church-owned property. The negative dates from roughly 1921 to 1922 and entered the Library of Congress as a 1947 gift from Herbert A. French. Streaks and other blemishes from the deterioration of the original coating are visible on the plate.
