The stiff oil cloth protected their shoulders and upper body against fiery embers and water, and the decorative painting served to identify company members at chaotic fire scenes or on parade. The capes were often painted by local sign painters, some skilled artists like John A. Woodside, who also painted the company\u00e2\u0080\u0099s hats and banners and decorated their fire engines. Many of the capes in the firefighting collection display patriotic names and symbolism, reflecting themes important to 19th century volunteers, as well as the pride they felt in the early founding date of their fire company."}, {"label": "Description", "content": "This oil cloth cape has been painted red overall with the name \u00e2\u0080\u009cGood Will\u00e2\u0080\u009d written in gold, with the date \u00e2\u0080\u009c1804\u00e2\u0080\u009d below.
