1812 War Veterans Parade in Frederick July 4
A 1862 Frederick chronicle recounts the July 4 parade with 1812 veterans in hacks, a procession led by General Edward Shriver, and a Declaration of Independence read by Dr I Steiner. The event featured a Welcome hall address, rockets, and a celebration marred only by some anti-Union sentiment. It notes local hospital inmate numbers and a cement pavement laid on Market Street, with fires of incendiary origin and no ice supplies in town.
