The record names a single individual, Francis Breese, but it does not say who he was, when the picture was made, or what occasion prompted it. The title comes from caption information that the Bain News Service recorded on the negatives or on accompanying cards, and that information has not been independently verified. Bain News Service, founded in New York by George Grantham Bain, sold news photographs to newspapers in the early twentieth century, and its glass negatives make up a large part of the Library of Congress holdings. Viewers should treat the identification as a starting point for further research rather than a confirmed fact.
