説明 | Card Text (transcribed from postcard): This venerable though unsightly structure was erected in 1824; its belfry (now untenanted) being used to summon loitering members of the Legislature during its sessions, and also to give warning of fires in the City. In the lower floors a guard-house and armory were maintained. During the war its tocsin frequently sounded 'alarms' upon the near approach of the enemy.Manufacturer: Southern Bargain House, Richmond, Va.Date Postmarked: Not postmarked.Rights: This item is in the public domain.
