Every member of each committee Is
requested to meet at the office of Wynne,
McCert & Steadman Thursday evening
at ) o'clock, when and where
they are expected to make
fun report of what they have done.
The outlook is that the veterans will be
entertained in Fort Worth in manner
that will make them glad they came
here. The committee appointed to raise
Messrs. W. f. Lake, Nj.
B. Lloyd and K. NJ. VanZandt, are
meeting with fair success. This is one of
the occasions where money is needed to
insure good results. and where good re-
suits must not be allowed to escape.
sThe committees are able to assure the
Texas veterans who assemble in Fort
Worth on the anniversary of San Jacinto
that their sojourn here will be at no ex-
peuse to themselves. The citizens of
Fort Worth will take care that the pres
ence of the heroes of Texas shall not go
within the walls of this
city.
