Inaugural Pageant for Western Territory Governor Arthur Sc Clair
A grand procession honors Arthur Sc Clair now governor at Gray's Ferry tending to the western territory. Citizens cheer, arches and laurel decorations frame the bridge spectacle. A civic crown lowers unseen as a vast crowd greets the chief to a banquet and a day of toasts and fireworks. He then delivers his inaugural address to Congress.
