    books.google.com/books?id=CRMbAQAAIAAJ&pg=PA170&l... indicates that Gaynor Park was dedicated on Dec 20, 1913 (which doesn't match the date deciphered by Wystan) with pageants and games under the direction of William J Lee. The NYT of the following day talks about the historical pageant. query.nytimes.com/gst/abstract.html?res=950DE0DD1F3BE633A...

    Thomas Riley Marshall (1854-1925) was Governor of Indiana when he received the nomination to be Woodrow Wilson's running mate in 1912. He served as Vice President for both of Wilson's terms.
  • The Library of Congress said:
    Thanks for the full name and contextual information. Will submit it for review and possible update to the catalog record.

    Found an 1912 NYT article about Col. Edgar Z. Steever's promotion to Brigadier General (pdf) during the Mexican Revolution and the accompanying cross-border troubles. He was born in Pennsylvania and graduated second in his class at West Point. He was commissioned a Second Lieutanant in 1871. He fought in 34 battles and skirmishes in the Philippines. BG Steever was forced to retire (pdf) in 1913.

    shouldn't the title be "Comd G" instead of "Comp. G"?
  • The Library of Congress said:
    yeknod: Thanks for noticing the transcription error. We changed the title to transcribe the letters in the negative rather than the caption card.
  • Bean Isabella said:
    If he became Brigadier General in 1912, wouldn't this have to be 1910-1911? I mean, wouldn't they have mentioned that level of rank? Even whether they wuld write that or not that remains murky, clearly it could not have been later than 1913 if that was when he retired.

    Could this have been at Fort Bliss?
