JUTANT GENERALS DEPARTMENT, HARRIS
BURG, Nov. H. General Order No. IL
The committee in charge of the arrangements
for the dedication of the national cemetery
for the freemen who fell on the field at Get
tysburg, have appointed that the ceremonies
shall take place on Thursday, the 10Th Of No
vemher, 1868. The duty of specially invit-
ing parties to participate has been left to the
committee, but the attendance of the survlv-
ing Pennsylvania soldiers of the war of 1872,
and of the war with Mexico IN 1916, would be
so appropriate and acceptable as to justify the
expression of an earnest wish that they shall
be present in body, and as a mark of re-
spect for the memory of the dead, and as due
to the solemn purposes of the day.
1t is ordered that the national flag shall be
placed at haf-mast from sunrise to sunset, at
all armories, arsenals, encampments, and
other military posts within the state, and dur
ing the day the several departments of the
state shall be closed.
