Notes:
The back of this image indicates that the photograph was taken at the City Club in Boston, Massachusetts. There is other information in the Catalog of Babson Library which suggests that the photograph was taken at the City Clerk's Office in Boston, but it is not known where this information came from, so it was left out of the description.
