Thanks! We'll add information to the source data and reload the description.

A church with five pointed stars on the archway? Admittedly the arch is otherwise rather like that found in a Gothic-style church, but the stars don't seem to fit, unless perhaps it is a military chapel?

This very well could be a military chapel. Vice President Elect Thomas Riley Marshall, erstwhile Governor of Indiana, arrived in Washington for the round of Inauguration festivities accompanied by an honor guard of sixty cadets of the Black Horse Troop of Indiana's Culver Military Academy. This photo shows him (and perhaps an official of the military chapel) on Sunday, March 2, 1913, two days before the Presidential Inauguration parade and ceremonies.

Culver! Culver! Culver!

See how they just walked the streets freely. Where are the security and bodyguards?

During the Inaugural Parade and the events surrounding it, Indiana Governor Thomas R. Marshall, the Vice President Elect, was escorted by sixty cadets of the Black Horse Troop of Indiana's Culver Military Academy. This photo shows cadets escorting Marshall from the church he attended on Sunday, March 2, 1913. The Inauguration was held two days later.
