The image shows a grand procession making its way through the bustling streets of Monrovia, with a large crowd gathered to witness the momentous occasion. President Howard, dressed in formal attire and wearing a top hat, is seen standing in the center of the procession, surrounded by Liberian officials and dignitaries. The President raises his right hand, taking the oath of office, while the crowd looks on with a mix of excitement and reverence.
