Beautiful Flag Gift to Dickinson School
A large crowd gathered at Dickinson school on April 9 to witness the presentation and raising of a United States flag donated by Lafayette Post of the Grand Army of the Republic. Gen R I H Hall recounted the flag’s history and the duties of citizens, noting its journeys from Philadelphia to ports worldwide and its rise to 45 stars. The flag now belongs to Dickinson school and is to be cared for by its students and community.
