Gettysburg veteran General Daniel Sickles at the Great Reunion in 1913. He died the following year at age 94. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Daniel_Sickles
BobMeade said:
Interesting to caption this as "Cheering Sickles". General Sickles himself appears to also be cheering, and every person in the photo appears to be looking at one place. Would Sickles have been cheering himself? Today that would seem unlikely, but I'm not sure of the etiquette for cheering in 1913.

Sickles was in his 90s at the Great Reunion, he was allowed to cheer for anything as he pleased. ;) And from the stories about him, I doubt etiquette was ever a major consideration in his life, at any age.

As a legislator he had pushed for the establishment of Gettysburg as a park. Perhaps that was what the cheering was about. bioguide.congress.gov/scripts/biodisplay.pl?index=S000402 has a briefer bio than Wikipedia, focusing on his political career in New York State and Congress. See comments on www.flickr.com/photos/library_of_congress/3681834943/ for more about him and his female companion, Mrs. Wilmerding. This picture was used in a longer biography at www.sicklesatgettysburg.com/Sickles_Biography.html NYT of June 30, 1913 reports on his visit to the Gettysburg reunion: query.nytimes.com/gst/abstract.html?res=9502E6DD153FE633A...

The two lads are probably footmen as they are not actually in the 'cart' proper. The same lads are seen in the newsreal below at 1min 30secs in looking stiff as bricks. The other two women are the Queens daughters, Princess Christian and Princess Beatrice. Mason's photograph was most likely taken on the way to the Phoenix Park from Kingstown(DunLaoghaire) on the 4th April 1900.....around midday.... as cortege reached Viceregal lodge at 2pm. www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=q9gwn...

O Mac They've got medals. Do you not think they'd be genuine soldiers?
National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
O Mac derangedlemur Which end of Grafton Street would you say? (for my map) I am inclined to go with the medals argument, I still say we will have their names before the day is out. For a while I thought the big man might be John Brown but it is not him.

In this photo of Brown he is wearing the same (very similar) uniform as our men in the Carriage. Click Here
