The record catalogs this glass negative under the name E.J. Chamberlin, but it gives no date, location or description of the scene, and the title is noted as unverified. It belongs to the George Grantham Bain Collection, made by the Bain News Service, a New York agency that sold news photographs to newspapers in the early twentieth century. Captions on that agency's negatives often came from information on accompanying cards, so the name may refer to a sitter, a subject or a story the agency was covering. Anyone researching the person or scene should treat the name as a lead to be checked rather than a settled identification.
