Two men and several women and children are seated on a small, modestly decorated float pulled by two horses. A large sign reading “BAPTISTS” has been erected over the women and children. One of more than 20 floats in this over one hour long parade, the float is passing in front of the Majestic Theatre at 4th and Main Streets. The number 1364 is written on a label that has been stuck to the lower left corner of the slide.
