Adding image of Hall

Note, since Hall died before the 1923 US copyright cutoff, most any photo of Hall you can find online should be addable to the article. Even if someone else "claims" it on their webpage, it's well out of copyright and can be uploaded to Wikimedia Commons. Adding an image would be a great boost for the article. Nice work, though in the future some more direct sourcing (see WP:Referencing for beginners) would make any draft stronger, but this figure is so inarguably coverable I didn't find publishing this to be controversial.
