About the Picture: March 17 1947 / Mayor James Michael Curley, dressed in his raccoon coat, hands out flowers during South Boston’s traditional Evacuation Day parade on March 17, 1947. Mayor Curley’s wife, Gertrude, in a smart green hat with a pink ribbon is sitting to his left and Edward J. “Knocko” McCormack in his Yankee Division uniform is in front. The parade originally commemorated the day the British left Boston on March 17 1776 and now it also honors St. Patrick, the patron saint of Ireland.
