Return To Gallery Menu   President William Howard Taft Campaigning at Batavia I'm not sure of the source, though the picture is credited to a Donald Jamieson. I believe I found this on the Clermont County Historical Society web site… but cannot confirm. Trivia note about William Howard Taft… he is the only man in US history to take and give the presidential oath of office. He took the oath of office in 1909, and gave the oath of office as chief justice of the supreme court to Calvin Coolidge (1925) and Herbert Hoover (1929)   Location: Batavia, OH Date: 4/1/1912 Source: unknown Photo ID: 240 Categories: People |  Batavia Depot |  Norfolk and Western |  Passenger Cars |
