Name: Mike Six on Aug 17, 2002State: NYCountry: USComments: I am writing in support of recent efforts to have the municipal dump removed from the McAllister's Mill site. I am fully cognizant of the Borough of Gettysburg's need for a dump and the attendant backlash that would result in relocating it to another site. However, the present site is totally inappropriate not only due to its Civil War connections but perhaps more importantly its Underground Railroad ties. Perhaps the town can include this site in Main Street Gettysburg efforts to attract more visitors to the downtown area. Combined with the Dobbin House and Lincoln cemetery you might be able to attract more frican-Americans to your beautiful town. This can only have a beneficial effect on the entire tourist industry. Thank you for your efforts in making Gettysburg such an important part of my family's life. MIke SixFlag

Regardless, every effort must be made to remove the dump from the McAllister's Mill area and restore and preserve this historic site.Flag

The McAllister's Mill town dump is a disgrace to the memory of those who operated and used the site as a stop on the Underground Railway. I am surprised and disappointed that the stewards of this hallowed ground are so cavalier and uncaring about our national heritage.Flag
