Armies Denied Admission to Capitol as Private Citizens
One hundred armed Confederate veterans from Tennessee were refused entry to the United States Capitol until they lowered their flag and disarmed. They came from the Richmond reunion, visited the White House, then marched along Pennsylvania Avenue. Capitol police insisted they could enter only as private citizens, not as a group. Congressman John Wesley Gaines accompanied them and protested. The piece links the incident to Coxey’s earlier march on the Capitol and notes public crowds visit the building but not as an army.
