fort to communicate with all vete-
rams who desire TO make the "trip to
Gettysburg in July on the occasion OF

rams willing and physically able to
make the trip may communicate with
their local camps, clerks of courts or
county supervisors. The railroad fare
of all veterans who are unable to pay
will be provided, and the government
and the State of Pennsylvania will
