Annual Parade of the 27th Annual G.A.R.
| Description: |
The annual parade began at the corner of 7th Street and Meridian and walked to the State Capitol. Streets and homes were decorated throughout the route and citizens packed the streets to honor the veterans. Many citizens watched the entire 7 hour parade, waiting for the Indiana regiments who marched at the end. The route did not pass the Soldiers and Sailors Monument which was still under construction at the time. |
