Memorial fund to honor Frederick county soldiers
After the Fourth of July homecoming, a $770 balance from the Frederick County Soldiers' Homecoming Celebration fund will be set aside as a nucleus for a memorial fund. Plans consider a tablet in Court House Park listing Frederick county soldiers' names, with a larger memorial funded by future contributions. The committee, including Nash E. Cramer, will decide how the balance is used and report on disbursements totaling $2,145.64 with $1,375.64 spent. The largest item was $550 for food for service men and $425 for bands. Expenditures also cover local vendors and services, with funds from Maryland Council of Defense and Frederick County sources.
