Taken in New Haven, this engraving from 1872 showcases the scene on Chapel Street during this historic event. As we delve into the image, our eyes are immediately drawn to a diverse group of onlookers lining both sides of the street. Excitement fills their faces as they eagerly await the arrival of these mysterious knights. The air is filled with anticipation and curiosity about this secret society. Intriguingly, mounted horsemen can be seen leading the procession down Chapel Street. Their presence adds an element of grandeur and spectacle to this already mesmerizing scene. A band follows closely behind, filling the air with lively music that further heightens everyone's excitement. The Knights themselves march proudly in their distinctive uniforms, displaying unity and camaraderie as they make their way through town. This fraternal organization represents strength, loyalty, and chivalry – values that resonate deeply within each member.
