REPORT Of
THE COMMITTEE
Which Has Been Entrusted with the
Task of Finding Homes for the
Confederate Veterans

Confederate Veterans
To the Good People of Ocala:
We, the committee soliciting homes
with entertainment, also rooms for
the veterans who are to be here Oct.
9th, 18th and 10Th, submit through
the press the result. If we have fail
ed to call on any one it has not been
intended. We have tried to visit ev-
cry house; many, no one was at home.
We do hope that every citizen of our
city that can take care of one or
more of these grand old men either in
their homes or by sending them to
some hotel or boarding house, will as
once telephone to 381 just what they
will do. The time is short and we
must know just what we can expect.
We cannot afford to have them come
and not be prepared to take care of
them. We appreciate every offer of
assistance, as well as every condition
that exists where some cannot.
Wishing each and all joy and hap
piness for the many kindnesses to US
in cooperation for this entertainment,
and trusting all will join in making
their stay with US the sweetest and
best of all the reunions.
