The Fort Ridgely monument commits
sion has encountered a great deal OF
difficulty in collecting the names of the
defenders of the fort during the siege
of 1852, to be inscribed on the monu-
ment These names have been collect
&C through the most reliable resources
available, but as many of them are for
eign, and severa, nationalities are en-
braced in them, the committee deems it
prudent to publish them in the leading
newspapers, in order that they may re-
ceiVe the criticism of the public. 1t
therefore Invites any suggestions re-
garding the lists, as to the accuracy of
the spelling, additions of omitted names
or any other matter that may aid in the
historical accuracy of the record.
Address all communications to
Charles e. Flandrau, chairman of the
Fort Ridgely monument committee
New York Life building, ST. Paul Mimi.
The committee will suspend action for
one week from the first publica ton of
this notice.
