[523]
we may, with confidence, appeal to our friends to help us place our grand enterprise on a basis of permanency, so that our children may have the means of vindicating the truth of history after the actors in the great struggle shall have passed away.
We really do not know how better some one of large means could invest money for coming years and hand his name down to posterity as a public benefactor than by linking it with this effort to preserve the history of our people.
We know of no better investment for even a small amount.
We recommend that Judge George L. Christian be elected Treasurer and Manager of the “Endowment fund” of the Society.
