Gate Memorial for Ottawa Soldiers Captures Town Spirit

The Forest Park Memorial gateway honoring Ottawa’s boys in Company K, 20th Kansas Infantry, returned from the Philippines, was dedicated Nov 3 1899 after a year of planning and donations totaling 2000 dollars. A Flower Parade crowned Miss Inez Wightman queen, and a huge welcome train the next day featured a crowd cheering as soldiers stepped from the train.
