BALTIMORE — A crowd of worshippers braved the rain in Baltimore’s Mount Vernon neighborhood Wednesday morning, walking in a procession from the Baltimore Basilica to the Washington Monument.
The procession followed a morning mass at the Baltimore Basilica, a national historic landmark on Cathedral Street; signs on the outside gates bill it as America’s first cathedral. The building’s architect also designed the U.S. Capitol Building.
