In addition to the ~15,000 spectators, attendees included 6 state governors: Andrew Gregg Curtin of Pennsylvania, Augustus Bradford of Maryland, Oliver P. Morton of Indiana, Horatio Seymour of New York, Joel Parker of New Jersey, and David Tod of Ohio.〔 ((pdf version) ) :p. 2: 〕 Reporters present included Joseph Gilbert (Associated Press), Charles Hale (''Boston Advertiser''), John Russell Young (''Philadelphia Press''); and ''Cincinnati Commercial'',〔 ''New York Tribune'', & ''The New York Times'' reporters.〔 ==Planning== Following the Battle of Gettysburg, an Evergreen Cemetery Association plan to create a soldiers annex requiring fee payments for interments (e.g., by families) was replaced by a plan by local attorney David Wills for a cemetery funded by the states. The Pennsylvania governor designated Wills the commonwealth's agent, who was authorized to purchase for a cemetery, paying $2,475.87 for the land ($ as of ). Wills' September 23 invitation〔 to Edward Everett requested an Oration on Wednesday, October 23; but Everett asked for a later date to prepare (the ceremony was rescheduled for Thursday, November 19). On November 2, Lincoln received formal notice of Wills' invitation to participate. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Consecration of the National Cemetery at Gettysburg」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
