EARLY BOVINA PICTURES Glass Negatives I believe these pictures were taken by David Fletcher Hoy in May 1900. I had the prints made in June 2001. Notes in italic type are from information enclosed with the glass negatives and are believed to be written by David Fletcher Hoy, (circa 1900). Other Notes are information that I have added. --Ed Davidson
