The caption on this glass negative names the sitter as Mrs. E.S. Coles, with a second name, Nona McAdoo de Mohrenschildt, but the record marks the title as unverified, taken from notes the Bain News Service wrote on the negative or its caption card. Bain News Service was a New York photo agency founded by George Grantham Bain that supplied newspapers with news pictures and portraits in the early twentieth century. Its glass negatives, later given to the Library of Congress, were often labeled in haste, so the identification is worth checking against other sources.
