Bohemian Monument Association

Illinois Staats-Zeitung, September 24, 1888

The "Bohemian Monument Association" is an organization which has proposed to erect a monument for those Bohemian soldiers, who took part in the Revolutionary War and sacrificed their lives for their new fatherland.

The following officials were elected last Saturday: William Kaspar, President; James Cermak, Secretary; J. Wemeck, Treasurer. Nearly all local Bohemian clubs were represented. A committee was appointed to draw up the by-laws. The next meeting will take place the following Sunday at the "Bohemian Athletic Club", when preparations will be made for the collection of funds.
