Bush]. The cemetery was dedicated on September 17, 1867, on the Fifth Anniversary of the battle.

There are also a few other statistics in the article. Shipping : Stored in a clear acid-free plastic sleeve with one end open. Will be safely mailed flat and well-supported by cardboard in a poly bubble-mailer. I happily combine shipping for like items. Shipping for each additional newspaper is an additional $1.
