The name attached to this glass negative is Wm. E. Werner, but the record gives no date or description to confirm who he was or when the picture was made. The title comes from caption cards that the Bain News Service, a New York picture agency founded by George Grantham Bain around 1899, attached to its negatives. The agency supplied newspapers with news photographs of public figures and events in the early twentieth century, so its plates document a wide range of American life. Because the title is unverified, the name is best treated as a starting point for research rather than a settled fact.
