A carriage carrying the Hains brothers on its way from court, according to the caption, dates this glass negative to October 1908. That year the brothers were in the news over the fatal shooting of William Annis at a Long Island yacht club, and the case drew heavy newspaper coverage. Bain News Service, a New York photo agency, recorded scenes like this for daily papers, but the title was written on the negative or caption card without independent verification, so the identification is best read as the agency's own label.
