| "From Sullivan's Block, outside Park Hotel, soldiers in a square," one of four "Different Views of Parades in the Streets" identified in Dahl's 1877 "Catalogue of Stereoscopic Views." The ceremonies are on the Capitol Square for the Centennial of the United States on July 4, 1876. The view is looking toward the corner of Main and Carroll Streets. Crowds line the streets waiting to see one of the four companies of the Illinois regiment "The Chicago Light Guard" who participated in the competitive drill. A hardware store can be seen in the background. |
