Go To Concord By Rail Monday
Appeal Issued Against Auto Congestion During Celebration
The Concord and Lexington committees in charge of the observamces of the 150th anniversary of the outbreak of the American revolution today sent out an appeal to all persons intending to visit those historic towns next Monday to use the railroad instead of highway, where practicable.
