A man identified in the caption as Geo. Levy is shown making a statement for a Mrs. Carman, though the record gives no date or setting to confirm the scene. The glass negative belongs to the George Grantham Bain Collection, the work of the Bain News Service, a New York picture agency that supplied news photographs to newspapers from the early 1900s into the 1920s. Captions on the agency's cards were written quickly for daily publication, so names and details like these are worth checking against other sources before being treated as settled.
