the monument to be erected in this Town in
memory of our noble dead; and there is something
constantly being done to prove our loyalty in all
things Post No. 6S has now its roll about IS
members in good standing, and so long there
are enough comrades in Bradford County, just SO
long Will our organization be maintained; then
the real work of the Sons of Veterans will have
begun and continued until this country shall fade

onded by an appreciative and loyal people, and
when called upon for any aid OF any character
