Speaker Clark and Vice Pres't. Marshall (LOC)

  • cotinis said:
    Yes, Vice-President Thomas R. Marshall (Wikipedia), date is 4 March 1913, as others of this series, the date barely legible on the caption. Looking at the photo, I'm not sure which one was Marshall--neither face looks too close to the one on Wikipedia. Probably the man on the left in the tall top-hat. "Speaker Clark" is Champ Clark--appears to be figure on right.
  • Harry Angstrom said:
    Champ Clark was Speaker of the House and ran against Wilson for the Democratic Presidential nomination. He got majority of the votes on the first ballot at the convention, but he needed 2/3, and he was surpassed by Wilson.
  • The Library of Congress said:
    continis and Harry Angstrom: Thanks for your information. I agree that the man on the right looks like Champ Clark. However, I think that Vice President Thomas R. Marshall is the man seated next to Champ Clark. Take a look at another image of Marshall from the Bain News Service: memory.loc.gov/service/pnp/ggbain/07700/07701v.jpg for comparison. A similar Bain image: www.flickr.com/photos/library_of_congress/2594702473 was taken during the first inauguration of President Wilson in 1913, so this one probably was also. We will update the source data and reload the description.
  • cotinis said:
    LOC: Thanks for clarification--fascinating. Note, too, that the date is on this photo, 3/4/13 (though hard to read), so this is Wilson's first inauguration, as you state.
