Hobart Band: Woodmen ceremony

Evidence note · high confidence

What the evidence supports

July 2, 1908 Hobart Republican reports that the band led the local Woodmen of the World camp to the cemetery for G. A. Coffman’s monument unveiling.

Limits and open questions

Completed activity reported for the preceding Sunday; publication date is not performance date. Participation does not make the band a Woodmen-owned ensemble. Strengthens existing Hobart record without proving its stated 1903 founding or continuous identity.

Confidence detail: high. Evidence notes are not a count of distinct ensembles.
