&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;New page&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div&gt;WALKING STICKS. The mark of a gentleman. Walking sticks, carried by wealthy merchants, politicians, or elected officials, conveyed the feeling in 19th century America that the person being observed no longer had to labor. Some walking sticks concealed weapons, and most were capped with a weighted head. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
One famous Dubuque resident known for his use of a walking stick was [[HENDERSON, David B.|David B. HENDERSON]] who had a leg destroyed and amputated during the [[CIVIL WAR]]. One of Henderson&amp;#039;s walking sticks was fashioned from a sapling cut by President Madison. Another of his sticks had a silver head and a hole in the cane&amp;#039;s side showing a view of the U.S. Capitol. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Senator [[ALLISON, William Boyd|William Boyd ALLISON]] carried a silver-headed walking stick during his career as a United States representative and senator from Iowa. His name encircled the cane&amp;#039;s elongated head that sat at a right angle to the cane&amp;#039;s shaft. &lt;br /&gt;
