 Dayton Welcomes the G. A. R.

September 1898 

The committee offers prizes of $5, $3, and $2 for the best decorated and illuminated private places.  A great deal of work has been done about the city and preparation for the great event.  In a word, Dayton is alive and enterprising in this manner.  Many members of the general committee, and some who are not on that list, have aided in the printing committee in getting out this Souvenir.  Without their help, the book could not have been what it is.  Messrs. Bird, Hayward, Hewetson, Collins, Lytle and others, have given great aid.
