Black & white photo of people looking away from camera "Patriotic Parade, So Webster O." written on back. Likely this scene is in 1918 after the Sedition Act was passed. A local farmer, son of German parents, had to apologize, kiss the American flag, pledge support for the U.S. cause, and lead a patriotic parade. It is not known what he had said or done. Simmering Market is at the left and the old brickyard in in the background.
