cided to unveil the monument to be
erected on Gettysburg Hill, in Holly
wood, to the memory OF General George
j.. Pickett and the members OF his d.
vision who lie buried near him, on the
9th day of October. This will be the
third day Of the Exposition, and will
probably be set apart as Veterans
Day" as Lee Camp and most of the old
vets seem favorably inclined TO this pro-
position

occasion has not yet been arranged in its
entirety, but those having the matter in
charge are now at work on it. The
Philadelphia brigade will reach here on
the evening of the 4th, and will be well

a social reunion around the festive board.
The base of the monument has been
completed, and the contractor gives
every assurance that the structure shall
be completed in ample time. The mon
ument will be hexagonal in shape, with
three columns on each side, and with
tablets or faces between the columns, on
which will be engraved the inscription
published in this paper many months
ago, since which time no material
changes have been made.
An interesting feature of the exercises
on the 5th will be the presentation Of a
sword captured from an officer of Armi-
stead's brigade, who was killed at the
memorable charge at Gettysburg, and
which was sent the association by Colonel
Cowan, of Pennsylvania, in whose hands
it fell. Captain Reeve, president of the
Pickett Division Association, is confident
that be has found out to whom it be-
longed, and it will, on the occasion, be
formally presented to the family of the
gallant hero from whose dead body it
was taken.
