White paper with typed black text
Mrs. Herbert Vance, President of Florida United Daughters (FL UDC) of the Confederacy forwarded a letter to Florida Governor Collins from Retired USAF Colonel Read B. Harding recommending Florida erect a monument to the men who fought for Florida at Gettysburg in 1863. A Monument for this purpose has already been erected in 1954 at Vicksburg. He also writes “I feel sure this project will have the sympathetic support of the press in Florida as well as that of many patriotic organizations besides the UDC and SCV.”
