BRANIGIN POST OFFICE BOX 345 — AREA CODE 317 736-6171 49 WEST MADISON STREET - FRANKLIN, INDIANA 46131 December 16, 1969 Mr. George Emory, Superintendent Gettysburg National Military Park Gettysburg, Pennsylvania Dear Mr. Emory: Thanks for your letter of December 4, 1969. We had thought that the plans submitted by Mr. Codori could be approved without the approval of the text at this time. In view of your letter, we have called a meeting of the Commission and hope to be in a position to approve the text on Tuesday, December 23, so that the entire plans can be submitted to the regional director. In the meantime, we are receiving calls from various monument makers about the status of the monument. We are advised by the Attorney General and the Department of Administration that we must advertise for bids and we have therefore decided that we should advertise at the earliest possible date after receiving the approval of the regional director. It is hopeful that this can be done by no later than the middle of January 1970. We will keep you advised of developments as they occur. Very truly yours, [signature] Thurman M. DeMoss TMD:ph
