Chattanooga Fountain Square Post Card

Marie Postcard Collection: This is Fountain Square, Chattanooga. On the back it says Junction of Georgia Avenue and Lookout Streets showing Fireman's Memorial Fountain and Cannons captured by the U.S. Troops at Santiago de Cuba by U.S. Troops. Cannons captured by the U.S. Troops at Santiago de Cuba by U.S. Troops? It seems to me with all the Civil War and early train relics lying around Chattanooga it would more fittingly as a memorial park to have something of Chattanooga's past - hey! Let's not forget that in Chattanooga was where the 'Trail of Tears' Native Americans was first herded together to cross the Tennessee River on Ross's Ferry (Ross was a Native American also).
