We currently have 61 paid members. The Kankakee Public Library now has a micro computer.

an approximate cost of $185. With this computer the Society will start indexing all 

newspaper vital statistics. The Society will purchase this software. Members assisted 

in filling the Freebie Bags for the June Workshop.

THE "GLORIOUS' FOURTH" IN KANKAKEE! 

From the Kankakee Gazette, July 9, 1868 

The morning of the Fourth broke calm and clear, greeted by a • National salute of Thirteen guns 

at sunrise. At an early hour the people began to stream into town from every direction, and 

by 9 o'clock the streets were crowded by eager and patriotic multitudes. All was stir and 

commotion. The boom of cannon, the rattle and roar of crackers, pistols, guns and everything 

that would burn gun powder and "celebrate", to which many be super-added the shouts and huzzas 

of thousands, were the greetings which heralded in the 92nd Anniversary of our National 

Independence. The weather was exceedingly hot and oppressive, the mercury running up to 105 

degrees in the shade, and 120 degrees in the sun. It was indeed a sweltering day, the earth 

burning like a furnace, and yet the people were "bound to celebrate", as on many a "glorious 

Fourth" before. 

The Procession 

Owing to the great heat the line of march, as indicated by the Programme of the Day, was 

materially abbreviated, and all for the better. The procession was formed on Court Street, 

frontingtheCourtHousesquare,underthedirectionofChiefMarshalTodd,assistedbyanactive 

and efficient corps of Aides. Precisely at 10:30 a.m., the procession began to move, headed by 

the Grove City Silver Cornet Band, followed by the mammoth band wagon containing the singers, 

then the carriage with the Clergy of the city, then the Committee of Reception, etc. The line 

of march was down Court street to West avenue, down West avenue to Hickory street, thence east 

on Hickory street to East avenue, thence north on East avenue to Depot, where the procession 

halted and awaited the arrival of the Onarga and Champaign delegation of members of the 76th 

Regt., under the lead of Gen. S. T. Busey. At 11 o'clock the train arrived, consisting of four 

coaches well crowded with guests. The committee of Reception met the General and his little 

army on the platform, when he and the orator of the day, Hon. Franklin Blades, were conducted 

to carriages in waiting, the procession was "filled in" and fully completed, with the Onarga 

and Watseka Brass Bands assigned prominent positions, and the Kankakee Cornet Band and Grove 

City Silver Cornet Bank in the lead, - the line of march was again taken up, passing along East 

avenue to Court street, up Court street to Indiana avenue, thence south on Indiana avenue to 

Bourbonnais street, and thence to the beautiful grove which our respected and public spirited 

townsman, Emory Cobb, Esq., voluntarily tendered to the Committee of Arrangements for their 

use on the occasion, which the Committee had gladly availed themselves of, and made thorough 

and ample provision for a vast multitude, as to seats, platforms, and other welcome accommodations. 

All was well done in this respect, and the Committee justly entitled themselves to 

thethanksofthepublicfortheirremarkablecare,andforethought in this important matter. 

On The Grounds 

Arrivedonthegrounds,thevastassemblageofpeoplewereprovidedwithseats.Thelargeplatform 

was filled with soldier guests, the choirs and bands, and those who were assigned parts in the 

exercises of the day. The several bands were called upon for music, which they from time to 

time discoursed in an admirable manner, and to the pleasure of all. 

-8-

The "Glorious Fourth" continued. 

All being arranged and disposed of in due order, the exercises commenced. At 11:45 

a.m. the Committee of Reception, consisting of Mayor T. P. Bonfield, Ex-Mayor Wm. 

G. Swannell and W. H. Bristol, arose upon the platform and appeared before the 

audience, Gen. Busey, President of the Day, also rising, when Mayor Bonfield 

addressed him in a Reception speech of several minutes' duration, welcoming the 

General and the soldier guests of the 76th, in most warm and patriotic words, and 

in terms well adapted to the time and occasion. His neat and appropriate speech 

met with a hearty response from all. 

Gen. Busey replied in a touching and eloquent address of about ten minutes' length, 

tenderly alluding to the regiment (76th) late under his command, its hardships and 

trials in camp and on the battlefield; but when he "lovingly" spoke of the dead", 

tears started from many an eye, and though "few and brief were the words he said," 

yet they went home to the heart, and were warmly appreciated by all that immense 

concourse of people. 

At the conclusion of Gen. Busey's address, he announced, as first in order, a prayer 

by the Rev. J. M. Whitehead - the Chaplain of the Day, Rev. J. B. Dille being absent. 

The Kankakee Musical Union now sang "Rally 'round the Flag, Boys," which was performed 

in a most spirited and soul-stirring manner, and elicited great applause. Then followed 

the singing of the "Marsellaise Hymn," by the French Choir of this city, which was 

admirably executed, and met with deserved applause. The Declaration of Independence 

was now read by Wm. G. Swannell, Esq. in an able and spirited manner, and reflected 

much credit on that gentleman's good taste and appreciation of the substance and 

essential meaning of that grand "document of rights". 

The Onarga Band now played a suitable piece, followed by the singing of our National 

Anthem - "America" - by the Kankakee Musical Union, assisted by the entire audience. 

It sounded grandly, and was received with cheers. After which, the Watseka Band 

discoursed one of their best pieces, in their usual fine style. 

Oration 

The oration by Hon. Franklin Blades, of Watseka, Iroquois County, Illinois, came 

next in order, and was one of the most able and eloquent productions of the kind 

we have ever listened to. It was repeatedly applauded, and did that gentlemen great 

credit. As we hope to be able to procure it for publication in these columns, we 

defer further notice at present. 

At the close of the oration, the Kankakee Musical Union sang in beautiful style the 

patriotic song - "A Shout for Columbia," which was highly praised. Then the 

Kankakee Cornet Band discoursed an excellent selection, and the French Choir sang 

a stirring piece, entitled "The Song of the Zouave". This choir is one of the best 

in the city, and its services on this occasion will be long remembered. 

Dinner 

The long expected dinner hour now came, it being about 2 o'clock. Refreshments of 

all kinds, and in great abundance, were provided in various ways, and the " multitude" 

were led. None went away without a "good square meal." 

-9-

The "Glorious Fourth" - continued. 

After Dinner, Toasts, &c. 

After dinner the audience re-convened at the stand, when the President of the Day, Gen. 

Busey, introduced Hon. D. S. Parker, who had prepared a series of thirteen Toasts 

suitable to the occasion, which were offered in their order and responded to by gentlemen 

present, - General Busey, Hon. A. W. Mack, Rev. F. W. Beecher, Rev. James H. Moore, 

Judge Chas. R. Starr,Ex-Mayor Swannell, Captains Chiniquy and Seguin, W. H. Bristol, 

James McGrew, S. R. Moore, W. S. Decker and others, being of the number. The Toasts 

were excellent and appropriate in character - and were responded to in a spirited 

and happy manner. We regret that our columns are too much crowded to admit the Toasts 

as we at first intended, and must content ourselves with this brief mention of them. 

Remarks 

At a late hour the conclusion of the Toasts and responses came, and the audience was 

dismissed, with three cheers for the "Day we celebrate". Taken all in all Kankakee 

never witnessed so grand a celebration. It is estimated that from 12,000 to 15,000 

people came to the city, and all passed off without accident of any kind, and everybody 

was pleased with the "ways things were done," and none more so than the brave soldiers 

of the 76th, who were guests of the city. See resolution passed at a meeting of the 

members of the regiment in Durham's Hall, on the evening of the 4th. 

Of the other amusements and attractions of the day, we have not time and space to 

speak, except that in the evening the fireworks were splendid, and were kept up until 

the grander fireworks and artillery of heaven took precedence, and a heavy rain, 

setting in, put a stop to anything further on the part of the citizens. This was much 

regretted, but it could not be helped. 

In conclusion, the thanks of the community are due to the Committee of Arrangements 

for the admirable manner in which they carried out their plans for the celebration, 

and to one and all for their interest and liberality at all times shown. May we have 

many such occasions hereafter.

GREATS AND GREAT, GREATS 

Looking for the birthplace of MARY BELZEMERE DALLEN born on March 27, 1864, in 

Illinois. Father JOSEPH MICHAEL DALLEN, mother MARGARET MOISANT: also looking for 

where in Canada JOSEPH MICHAEL came from. Looking for where in Canada GILBERT 

FORGUE was born in 1839 or 1840. His parents may be ABRAHAM FORGUE, mother MARY 

BRODIN. Could Abraham been married twice? Found ABRAHAM FORGUE married July

WAKE UP! KANKAKEEANS!! 

Taken from The Kankakee Gazette, November 9, 1871 

All citizens who feel an interest in the prosperity of our city and county 

are requested to meet in Swannell's Hall, Friday evening, Nov. 10, at 7 o'clock, to 

concert measures to induce manufacturers to locate here. The following measure is 

proposed: 

To publish a circular setting forth the advantages here; abundant water-power, building 

stone, and building lots. Very soon we shall have two cross railroads in operation, 

giving us a ready communication in every direction with all parts of the country, with 

the advantage of competing rates; coal abundant in the west part of our county, and 

on the Vermillion, a little further west; hardwood timber from Indiana and Ohio, and 

pine from Michigan, cheaper than at Chicago; abundance of good iron ore in Indiana, 

which can be brought and manufactured here. 

Will not owners of vacant lots give building lots to the manufacturers, that were 

burnt out in Chicago, if they will build here? Cannot money be made by thus giving 

away lots? 

The east and west railroad through Gilman runs half a mile south of the old court house 

site in Middleport. The owner of the land there supposed the depot must necessarily 

be built there, and hence he asked an exorbitant price. The owner of the land on which 

Watseka is built, offered to give land for the depot buildings. His offer was accepted, 

and he became rich by selling the balance of his farm in town lots. 

Some years ago Mr. Enos offered to give good building grounds to a woolen manufactory. 

Would he not do the same now? Could he not make money by it? 

Now is the time. "Strike while the iron is hot". Send the proposed circulars to the 

Chicago manufacturers who were burnt out, and to Eastern captalists. So favorable 

an opportunity will not soon occur again. Every intelligent citizen knows that the 

only chance for the growth of our city depends on manufactures. St. Louis and other 

cities are moving in the way here recommended. Shall we be so unwise as to let the 

present opportunity pass unimproved, and let others reap all the advantages of the 

present time? Come one! come all!
