Here the Procession assumed most grand
and imposing appearance, and was SO viewed
and regarded by an immense multitude OF spec
tators, who had assembled along the streets by
which II moved and in front of the Hall TO
hear the addresses from the temporary rostrum.
The ceremonies here commenced with an Ode
