Replacement carriage for cannon

Donation protected
My name is Gary Rushford and I am a life member of Lamoille County Veterans of Foreign Wars Post 9653. I also served as chairman of the Morristown Veterans Memorial Fund. We were sucessful in raising in excess of $80,000.00 to build a monument honoring all Veterans serving from Morristown. In addition to the Veterans Memorial we have a Civil War Monument standing guard over Monument Park. This is an original 3 inch ordance rifle tube, built by Phoenix iron company of Pennsylvania, and cast in 1864. We feel it should be mounted on a replicia of it's orginal carriage.

To complete the project we need to purchase a carriage for the authentic Civil War cannon that has been at the Park for many years. The cost of the carriage is $14,500, excluding shipping. The money raised from this campaign will make it possible for our community to honor our Veterans that served in all wars and during peacetime. Your donation, no matter how large or small will be greatly appreciated.
