Downtown Shakopee is in background and; foreground is a banner suspended by wire or string that reads "Gen. G. W. Hancock for President," other writing is illegible. A gas(?) light post is in left corner across street is line of buildings with horses and wagons hitched our front. A clock hangs in front of one building and is almost legible--maybe two o'clock.

Street scene in Belle Plaine with horses at a hitching post. The building on the north side was once the Chard Shoe Store and was torn down in 1901. The building on south side was Miss Mersen's candy and millenery shop.
