Wilson notified (LOC)

  • Dean Z said:
    I made a similar comment here www.flickr.com/photos/library_of_congress/14709949112/ This image appears to be taken September 2, 1916, following Woodrow Wilson's notification that he was nominated as the Democratic candidate for President for the 1916 election. The photo was taken at the Shadow Lawn estate in New Jersey, which served as Wilson's summer White House. The house burned down in 1927. A photo from the event is seen here: The Washington times. [volume] (Washington [D.C.]), 03 Sept. 1916. Chronicling America: Historic American Newspapers. Lib. of Congress. (chroniclingamerica.loc.gov/lccn/sn84026749/1916-09-03/ed-...)

    The man to the right appears to be Senator Ollie Murray James. Who official notified Wilson of the nomination per the Washington Times photo
  • Jon (LOC P&P) said:

Wilson's speech is found here: (millercenter.org/the-presidency/presidential-speeches/sep...) and is described as "In an address to the National Democratic Convention, incumbent President Woodrow Wilson accepts the party’s nomination for the 1916 Presidential Election. Wilson spells out his first term successes and the fulfillment of his promises prior to taking office. In addition, the President reiterates the country’s position of neutrality in World War I, a staple of the party’s 1916 platform."
