The only identifying detail for this picture is the name T.J. Spellacy, which Bain News Service recorded on the negative or its caption card, and the record does not say who he was or when the photograph was taken. The Bain News Service was a New York picture agency founded by George Grantham Bain in 1901, and it supplied newspapers and magazines with news photographs of people, places, and events until about 1918. Its glass negatives, like this one, are valued today as a broad record of American life in the early twentieth century. Because the caption is unverified, the name is best read as the agency's label rather than a confirmed identification.
