Baltimore in 1869 was a major Atlantic port and one of the largest cities in the country, with about 267,000 residents by the 1870 census. Its harbor on the Patapsco River handled grain, tobacco, and coastal shipping, and the city's canneries and oyster packers drew on the Chesapeake Bay. The Baltimore and Ohio Railroad, headquartered in the city since its founding in 1827, tied the port to the interior and kept its repair shops and freight yards busy. Only a few years after the Civil War, the city was still sorting out its divided loyalties, rebuilding its commerce, and watching new institutions such as the Peabody Institute, which had opened its doors in 1866, take shape in the downtown streets.
