How Republicans commemorated Thanksgiving in 1869--with a multi-racial/multi-ethnic gathering of people at a table with a centerpiece celebrating universal suffrage and self-government, and with an engraving of Castle Garden, the pre-Ellis Island point of disembarkation for immigrants.

A Harpers Weekly engraving from 1869 depicting Uncle Sam's Thanksgiving Dinner as described in the main text of this skeet. There are also images of Lincoln, Washington, and Grant on the wall.
