TO MARK THEIR GRAVES

Rev. J. S. SMITH has received the blank applications from the war department at Washington,
D. C., for headstones to mark the graves of the old soldiers that are buried in the cemetery at
this place. He desires the names, rank, company, regiment and date of death, of all the old
soldiers whose graves are unmarked. The government furnishes the headstones and prepays the
freight to the railroad station and the G.A.R. will see that they are set. This should be
attended to immediately so that all stones may be ordered at one time.
