Description
The image of the unveiling of Lincoln's World War I statue was most likely taken at the telephone operator's office, now the location of Rite Aid. There were speeches all day with many important people in town speaking and visiting. Plumly Block can be seen in the background. The statue has been moved and turned a few times over the years.
A new senior apartment building is now being built in this spot.
