There was a silk strike in Paterson, New Jersey in 1913 led by Lessig. Lessig and Haywood were subsequently convicted of being disorderly persons due to a large protest march which formed behind them. So, this composite photograph relates to that. Read some details here: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paterson_Silk_Strike_of_1913 And their convictions were later overturned, according to this: query.nytimes.com/gst/abstract.html?res=9B00E4D8113CE633A... The Patterson in the caption may be amended to spelling Paterson in accordance with the "Paterson" inscribed on the negative.

Perhaps the Caron mentioned in NYT of July 5, 1914 query.nytimes.com/gst/abstract.html?res=9902E5DA153FE233A... as "the young man who started the free speech agitation at Tarrytown." The article is about the aftermath of his death when a bomb he was handling exploded (on July 4). The bomb was apparently intended to be used against John D. Rockefeller. NYT of June 25, 1914 query.nytimes.com/gst/abstract.html?res=9C0DE6D91F39E633A... suggests his first name was Arthur,
