EMORY FISHER POST, NO. 30, G. A. R.

    The veterans of the Civil War organized this post July 19, 1877. The charter members were: George W. Arnold, Jacob M. Campbell, Virgil C. Elder, A. G. Fockler, J. M. Fockler, George W. Gageby, Irwin Horrell, William A. Kramer, Henry H. Kuhn, John H. Lenhart, Robert Litzinger, George F. Randolph, Frank H. Singer and George T. Swank. The Post purchased the ground and building which is now occupied by the Citizen's National Bank, and occupied it for several years, when it was sold and a new building was erected on the southwest corner of Locust and Park Place, opposite to the City Park. Here are also the headquarters of the Speer Orr Camp of the Sons of Veterans.
