Description |
English: During the Independence Day celebrations in Seattle in 1898, the place of honor in the parade was held by the Fifth Regiment, Canadian Militia. The militia received a standing ovation from the crowd in a "demonstration of Anglo-Saxon unity," likely spurred on by the defeat the previous day of the Spanish Fleet off Santiago Bay, Cuba, by U. S. forces, effectively ending the 10-week Spanish-American War. In this image taken from First Avenue, the regiment is led east on Yesler Way by their regimental band. Spectators line the streets, and can be seen leaning out of windows along the parade route. Signs in image: The Mutual Life Insurance Co.; E. T. Co.; Safe Deposit Co., Merchants National Bank; Ramquist & Sons, Merchant Tailors; Handwritten on verso: English troops from Victoria B'ka parading in Seattle July 4th 1898.
