Dear Sir:- 
The Executive Committee of the Admiral Dewey 
Reception Committee takes pleasure in announcing that the - 
recommendation of its Committee on Medals has been approved, 
and that a Commemorative Medal of great beauty and historic 
interest will be struck from metal obtained from a bronze 
torpedo captured by Admiral Dewey in the battle of Manila 
Bay, May 1, 1898. 
As the quantity of metal available is limited, 
only a comparatively small number of medals can be fur- 
nished, and therefore all members of the Committee are 
asked to send immediately to Hon. Simon Wolf, Chairman of thj 
Committee on Medals and Badges, a request for a medal. 
The request should be accompanied by a check for 
one dollar, the price fixed by the Committee to cover the 
cost of production. 
Members of committees desiring more than one 
medal will please state in their request the additional 
number desired and enclose a check for the proper amount 
of money for the same, as after supplying single medals 
to each committeeman any surplus will be disposed of to 
the first applicants. 
The right is reserved to limit the number of 
medals to be furnished any one person. All orders must 
be in the hands of Chairman Wolf on or before September 
10, 1899. 
Yours very respectfully, 
Secretary 
1 
Acting 'Chairman.
