President William McKinley speaks before the Pan-American Exposition in Buffalo, New York. It is right after this speech that McKinley is shot by a leftwing anarchist, Leon Czolgosz.
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.
