    I added the subjects and year the photograph was shot to the tags here. I'm thinking it would benefit people searching :)

    "Investigator reports little actual need for earnings." He does need earnings to save up so he can later get books and tutoring once he is emancipated from the adults who pay for his other needs. They don't really care about him or they'd be giving him a basic education somehow. Plus if he gets ill or injured there wouldn't much work he'd be able to do being illiterate and disabled. [Added subjects in case they are desired.]

    One of the things Lewis Hine did to get his photos was to engage in various pretexts. Obviously, if he said he was there to shoot children working during school hours he would be told to go away. Photographers have the same issues today when they want to shoot factory or slaughterhouse conditions. Here perhaps he told the staff that he wanted to take a portrait of them, then cropped almost everything out but the usher.

    Man! What were they shooting with back then? A pinhole camera and ISO 3200 film? The full sized version is a mess! Remind me never to complain about the noise in my DSLR again!

    I did a montage "mashup" a few months ago after I returned from a trip to DC. The base photo is from the LOC (although not yet here in The Commons) and is of the crowd at Lincoln's Second Inauguration:

    There is a story, that I have seen in a number of places that says that when Lincoln approached the podium to deliver the address, a shaft of light broke through the clouds illuminating the Capitol step[s like a divine spotlight.
