Makes an Appeal to Mayor
And Citizens of Rome.
ASKS ’HE HILL CITY TO
Do Her Share Towards Geor
gia’s Entertainment of Vets.
Headquarters: Room 112 Kim
ball House.
Atlansa, Ga., July 6, ’ l jß.
To the Mayor and Citizens of
Rome, Ga. Sirs :—The Reunion
of Confederate Veterans will be
held in this city July 20—23
next. They will be the guests of
our state. It is desired to give I
them royal welcome. To do this,
we want your cordial and gener
ous assistance.
The Reunion of 1893 was
held in Richmond, Va , and the
great people of the “Old Domin
ion” united in accordL g the
Veterans loving welcome.
No loss grand was thesponta- '
neons entertainment given them
bp the loyal-hearted Tennessee
ans in Nashville in 1897.
Georgia must not, and with
your aid shall not be excelled in
this regard, by either of these
great states
The Cons derate Veterans As-;
sociation of Nashville called on
the people of Tennessee for sup
plies with which *o feed the
many worthy Veterans who
could not afford hotel expenses
That call was responded to with
lavish profusion.
In like manner do we call on
the people of .Georgia, and all
who cherish the memories of the
“Lost Cause,” and who honor
the survivors ot that cause. 9
show their appreciation by liber
al contributions of provisions
and supplies, or money. Money
is more desirable, as provisions
can be procured here, and save
express and freight, Every dol
lar will be applied solely for the
use of the commissaries.
The General Commanding the
1 Georgia Division U. C. V. has
appointed Assistant Commissa-j
ry Generals in every county in ]
Georgia, who will secure and
forward such supplies as can be
obtained.
I now appeal to our city sisters
to aid usia money contributions
to assist in providing for all
old needy Veterans.
Res pc ctfully.
