Students in Philadelphia parade, 1887

School band and formation of students marching in a parade down Market Street in Philadelphia, showing crowds and buildings on both sides of the street. The photograph was probably taken on September 15, 1887 when the band and students marched in a parade in Philadelphia to commemorate the centennial of the adoption of the Constitution. Press reaction to the school's representation in the parade is quoted in The Indian Helper Vol. 3, No. 7, September 23, 1887.

The Cumberland County Historical Society has another very similar image (10-B-28).
