On March 6, 1857, the United States Supreme Court issued The Dred Scott decision, written by Chief Justice Roger Brooke Taney, a former Frederick resident who, when he died in 1864, was buried in St. John's Roman Catholic Cemetery between Third and Fourth streets near East Street in downtown Frederick. He was interred next to his mother, Monica. In its ruling the court declared that all blacks - slaves as well as free - were not and could never become citizens of the United States. On March 6, 1898, Grace Reformed Church, the second church of that faith in Frederick, was organized. The church held services in Trinity Chapel and Kemp Hall for its first five years. On March 6, 1974, the craze of the 1970s on college campuses reached Hood College when five coeds "streaked" in the nude across the Rosemont Avenue campus. At approximately the same time two men "streaked" through Frederick Towne Mall on West Patrick Street, Frederick's Golden Mile.
