    Hi, I'm an admin for a group called god creatures, and we'd love to have this added to the group!

    Here is James P. Holland at the same parade. The New York Times says he was the Grand Marshall for the New York City parade. This gentleman is wearing a bow tie, and Holland is not in his labeled photo. Willard Small was the Grand Marshall at the Newark New Jersey parade.
  • Wystan said:
    The parade took place on Monday, September 1, 1913. Turnout was low, a result attributed to prosperity, which led many workers to leave town to enjoy a three-day weekend. Here's the story in Tuesday's New York Times: query.nytimes.com/gst/abstract.html?res=9A05E6DB123FE633A...
