Text	[a colored Emancipation Celebration procession in Hudson, N.Y., 9/3/1867] At 1 o'clock the procession was formed in front of the City Hall, under the direction of the Chief Marshal, Peter Van Loan, assisted by many Aids, all mounted, some in magnificent style, with batons and other insignia of office. The order of the procession was as follows: Chief Marshal, speakers and invited guests (in carriages), Committee of arrangements (in carriages), Jamaica Base Ball Club (in uniform.,) United Brothers (of Kinderhook, with splendid banner), Kinderhook Colored Band, citizens and visiting brothers, Colored Drum Corps (in gaudy uniform), carriages with ladies, Female Benevolent Society (of Troy, with beautiful banner, and decorated with white sashes and blue rosettes.) The whole forming a very imposing spectacle, novel in the extreme, and quite interesting.
