A Card.

The committee is makinga very earnest
effort to get a editable historical COL
l. ction for the Union county exhibit at

to the world. Those having relics are
hereby urged to put them into the col
lection that is to 60 to Charleston and
are assured that they will be carefully
guarded and return' d to the owners at
the close of the Exposition. Answers to
the following questions are requested at
once from those who possess any knowl-
edge If the facts:
DID Union county furnish any soldier;
h the war of 1912?
If 50, who is he? Is any relic of him
or of his service to be found lin the
county?
Is there anyone who can give the name
of the first Union county man killed in
the Civil Wa,? Has amy one any article
of interest thai bei,mVrd to him?
Does any one know the list of "killed"
for Union County during the Civil War?
Has any me i'm the county medal

of them in tn" town, is there another in
the county?
Any info nation pertaining to the
history of the county will be greatly ap-
preciated by
