This photograph shows a brass band and a group of soldiers in front of Col. Sporing's house in St. Peter. The Church of the Holy Communion is partially visible at the far right. The soldiers were very likely members of St. Peter's Company I of the Second Minnesota Infantry Regiment.
This photograph shows members of a St. Peter band. The members are shown in matching uniforms, with their instruments. Names of some of the members are on the reverse side of the photograph. Another copy of this photograph also has the names of a number of band members.
