Mcpherson Evergreen Cemetery Association.
The President, Trustees and Company of this
Society, having been legally organized, aud hav-
ing secured and laid off the necessary grounds
in sizes and shapes suitable for Family Lots and
Vaults, and being now engaged in fencing and
embelishing the same, have the honor of invi-
ting all interested, in purchasing lot in those
popular and beautiful grounds, to meet us on
the premises in Clyde, Sandusky county, Ohio,
on Friday, the Goth day of October, 1866, at 10
o'clock, A. NJ.
A minimum price has been fixed on the lots
varied according to size and location, barely
sufficient to pay for the lands and improve
ments. And the excess that may be obtained
over that price by praiseworthy competition,
the Corporation is pledged to invest in such re-
pairs and Improvements as subsequent exigen-
cies may require. Many lots have already been
selected adjacent to the grave of our lamented
General Mcpherson, adjoining the space reserv-
ed for his monument, supposed soon to be erect
ed. But desiring as we do, to allow all to par
ticipate in this opportunity for generous rivalry
no lots will be disposed of before the day and
hour appointed for this public sale
All newspapers declining this of sufficient
public Importance, will oblige US, and perhaps
promote largely the interests of worthy object
by either copying this, or calling attention to it,
as their Judgment shall dictate.
Terms of the family lots and vault sites: One
third in hand, remainder in six and twelve
months without interest.
By order of the Board,
G. W. PAGE, Sec'y.

Commis sioner.

We would impress upon the minds of our
readers the importance of electing the Union
ton. Mr.. Forgerson, the Union candidate, was
born and raised in our county. He is a most
estimable and upright man, of fine business
qualifications, and should be elected by all
means. We believe they have never had a
Commissioner. north of the pike west of the
river. There are some important interests at
stake in that part of the county, which renders
it highly important that it should have the
Commissioner. Every man interested in the
prosperity of the county, and especially in the
prosperity of Fremont, should vote for Mr..
Forgerson. The interests of the county viii be
safe in his hands.

srUDYTHE RECORDs.

If any soldier has an honest doubt whether
the history and character of the Democratic par
ty have been reasonable during the war let him
study their records and satisfy himself If
now and then one made speech at recruit
ing meeting, he had motive enough in the de-
sire to avoid the draft himself But the public
character of the words and acts of the party
were aid and comfort to the enemy. Every
Union soldier felt this. But read their platform
and speeches during the war when it was yet
uncertain whether the rebels or we would con-
quer. This party to-day is the same which, in
the most trying hours, was loudest in its de-
nuncictions of the Government, the war, the
draft, and the soldiers in the field Can the
brave and true men who saved the cOuntry in
spite of this party now be induced to vote with
it? The Cops claim it, but we have too much
respect for our former fellow soldiers to believe
it of those who we're true in the field.

EDWIN HAFF.

How ne became q soldier.
The Copperheads nominated Edwin Haff for
Auditor, because he had been soldier and it
was supposed he could get some of the soldiers
votes. 1t may be little interesting to the yo-
ters of the county to know how he came to go
into the service. Itwas in this way. Anum-
Der of the citizens of his township were togeth-
er talking about volunteering, when he, with
the intention of ''blufing'' them off, offered to
volunteer if certain other persons would do the
same These men took him at his word, and at
once enlisted. Under the excitement of the
moment he complied with his banter and put
down his name. On the organization of the
Company, Mr.. Half was missing and could not
be found. This of course excited considerable
comment among the members of the Company,
and it began to be whispered about that he
would, if found, be arrested as a deserter.-
These whisperings finally came to the ears OF
Mr. Half s father, and the old gentleman start
ed off post haste for the west, and brought the
missing volunteer back, and compelled him to
take his place in the Company And this is
the way he became soldier.

REMEMBER.
WAS HE A UNION MANI

While in the army Edwin Haff made great
professions of Unionism. He voted for Brough
for Governor, and for most of the Sandusky
County Union ticket. He could not vote for
such men as John M. Smith for Auditor, or for
Philip Short for Sheriff, and others on the
Democratic ticket. They were too much Cop
perhead for him. Even after he came home, he
professed to be Union man, and quarreled
with his Democratic neighbors and his father.
Now was he sincere in this? If SO, why do we
find him now in the ranks of the traitors, asso-
ciating and afiliating with such men as James
Parks, Bruce Lindsay, Chas. 'olapp, Vallandig-
ham and othersf Every voter knows,-and
none know better than Mr. Haf,-that these
men opposed the war for the Union, and did all
in their power to discourage enlistments, and
the filling up of our armies?, There is only
one solution to the question. Mr. H aft was
bought over by the promise of the nomination
for Auditor. In this view of the case, is there
any true Union man that can give his vote TO
Mr.. Haff9 Verify, none
