“Unconditional Surrender:
An Evening with General Grant”
President Ulysses S. Grant
will live again - at least in the
eyes of an audience at the Main
Feature Theatre in Waukon on
June 7th.
Pete Grady of Marshalltown
will reprise his performance of
the famed Civil War general
and president at the event
Friday evening as a part of the
Thunder in the Park Civil War
Re-enactment event.
Grady, a native son of
Allamakee County and a 1971
graduate of Waukon High
School, will portray Grant in a
one-man show, “Unconditional
Surrender: An Evening with
President Grant”, at 6 p.m.
The event is open to the public
and generously sponsored by
Dave Martin, Martin Funeral
Home of Waukon.
Admission is $5 per person
and all proceeds benefit the
Thunder in the Park Civil War
Re-enactment,
Allamakee
County Historical Society and
Main Feature Theatre. Food
and beverages will be available
for sale.
Grady not only performs
the one-man production, but
he also wrote, directed and
produced the play based on
Grant’s memoirs.
It took Grady approximately
three months to research and
another two months to write
and format the play.

told me that I resemble General
Grant.” Grady explained. “Once
I was told of the resemblance, I
began to look for a play where
I could combine my interest in
the Civil War with my interest
in theatre. I couldn’t find such
a play, so I realized that I
would never be able to play the
General unless I wrote a play
myself.”
Grady created the play as a
fundraiser for the Marshalltown
Community Theatre and has
performed it eight times,
including two performances at
the State Historical Society in
Des Moines and performances
at the Iowa Veterans Home in
Marshalltown.

Civil War Monument rededication
by Lissa Blake
A rededication of the Civil
War monument next to the Allamakee County Courthouse in
Waukon will take place Friday
evening, June 7, following the
weekend’s kick-off event at 6
p.m. that Friday: “Unconditional
Surrender, An Evening with
President Grant,” performed
by Waukon native Peter Grady
at the Main Feature Theatre in
downtown Waukon.
MONUMENT
Following Grady’s performance, participants are invited
to proceed to the Allamakee
County Courthouse for a rededication ceremony for the
county’s Civil War Monument.
Those attending are encouraged to bring a chair or blanket
to sit on during the ceremony.
The original purchase of the
monument was described in an
article from the Postville Herald, dated January 2, 1920:
“County Buys Soldiers
Monument
The Soldiers Monument
Commission of Allamakee
County, appointed some years
ago, and consisting of W.B.
Cowan, Robt. Wampler and
Judge H.E. Taylor, met with
the Board of Supervisors yesterday afternoon and decided
upon a monument for the Civil
War veterans of this county. A
contract was entered into by
the Board with E. J. Roggensack of Lansing for its erection in the city park at Waukon. The monument will be of
white Barre granite and its cost
is $8,000. The base is 8 feet
and four inches square and 16
inches thick, with a die 3 feet
and six inches square upon
which is mounted a soldier in
the pose of “rest.” The height
of the monument will be twenty
feet and the total weight 70,000
pounds. G.A.R. and other emblems will adorn it, including
the artillery on one side, the
infantry on another and a large
eagle. The inscription for the
face of the monument has not
been decided upon. If possible,
its erection is to be completed
in time to be dedicated next
Decoration Day.”
According to event co-organizer Al Lyon, additional research is being done on the
monument’s history.
CEREMONY
The rededication ceremony,
which is expected to last about
30 minutes, will include a short
introduction, invocation, reading of a list of names of those
who died during the Civil War, a
reading of a letter by “President
Lincoln,” a short speech about
where the men from Allamakee County fought, laying of
the wreath, a rifle firing by the
American Legion and Taps.
The Courthouse lawn will
be ablaze with 192 luminaries representing Allamakee
County soldiers. Twelve orange
luminaries will represent the
men who died in Andersonville
Prison. The orange represents
the red Georgia soil where the
soldiers are buried.

Meet President Abraham
Lincoln as portrayed
by Lance Mack
Through his nearly mirrorlike portrayal, Lance Mack
will seemingly bring President
Abraham Lincoln back to
life for those attending the
“Thunder in the Park” Civil
War re-enactment event being
held at Waukon City Park
June 8-9. Mack will present a
series of “Speech Giving by
President Lincoln” sessions
throughout the “Thunder in
the Park” weekend. Check the
Schedule of Events printed
within this special publication
for additional information
about those sessions.
Adorned
in
President
Lincoln’s signature stovepipe
hat and black frock coat, Mack’s
stunning physical likeness
to the 16th President of the
United States only serves to
add to his presentation. His
tall, lanky body and natural
black beard are just part of his
overall Lincoln near carbon-
copy appearance that initially
drew the attention of Mack’s
family and friends and soon
became the basis for him to
pursue his portrayal of the
former president.
Mack’s core presentation
in his Lincoln portrayal often
includes the following:
• An official presidential
introduction and entrance to
“Hail to the Chief”
• A recitation of the Pledge
of Allegiance along with the
audience
• A speech about “Liberty
and Law”
• An autobiographical sketch
of Abraham Lincoln’s life
• A recitation of The
Gettysburg Address
• A question and answer
session.
