Description
English:

Most of the people who poured into Dawson starting in 1897 were Americans. As a result, the Fourth of July was a big holiday. This photo, taken by Eric Hegg on July 4, 1899, shows Captain Jack Cawford on his horse in Dawson. Cawford was an American and a veteran of both the Civil War and the Indian Wars of the 1860s and 1870s. In 1899, he was elected marshal of the holiday parade. After the parade, he recited a poem he had written in honor of the occasion.

Original title: Capt. Jack Cawford. Marshal of the day, July 4th 99. Dawson Y.T. Original photograph: Hegg, E.A., July 4, 1899. Copied after 1975 by the Museum of History and Industry.
