The Proposed Monument.
The grand jury of June Court will be
f called upon to pass judgment on tbe
questkn of approving an appropriation t
of $8,000 for tbe erection of a suitable
tuemorial in behalf of tbe valor of the
Soldieis and Sailors who went from
Snyder county In auy of the wars in
behalf of this country.
Tbe above la an illustration of the
od a' .-. uia er-1-

Orand Jury In February did not ap
prove more than $3,000. According to
the Act of Assembly tbia amount must
be approved by another grand jury and
by the Court, before the County Com
mitdioners are authorized to erect the
monument.
The attention of this Grand Jury is
directed to the unusual privatious en
dured by the soldiers on duty. This
was true more especially during the
Civil War and since Suyder county bad
so many soldiers lu this great conflict,
it is just and fitting that their valor be
commemorated by erecting a suitable
memento.
The jury is composed of the follow
ing geutlemen to whose favorable con
sideration we couiuieud this proposed
marker.
