McKinley's Speech, Pan-American Exposition (Edison, 1901)

Too bad that they couldn't record the whole speech. Even if you couldn't hear the words, having the entire speech in it's entirety would be a historical treasure.

wow, amazing. i didn't know there was footage of mckinleys visit to buffalo.  this is actually the day before he was shot twice.

he didn't die until 8 days later, after improving for the first 6 days. it was infection and gangrene that ended his life.

thanks for posting this amazing footage.
