DescriptionA group of men in military uniforms are riding in formation along a paved street. Men and women stand on the sidewalk in the background, looking on. Several small boys are running ahead of the horses. Brick industrial buildings line the street. There are trolley tracks in the road and piles of what appears to be horse manure in the foreground.
