| Remember, on every copy of The
Record sold this week above our
regular circulation, all the profit
goes to the monument fund. We
will have about 700 or 800 extra
copies for sale. Copies sold at this
Office or orders filled will be duly
credited and account rendered.
Col James Armstrong, the liveliest
and wittiest of the States silver
tongued orators, will be with US at
the unveiling. 1t is treat to hear
him at any time; to the flights Of
poesy and patriotism this occasion
will inspire him fancy paints a flat
tering picture. Come and hear this
gifted speaker.
In the way of cuts, photographs,
the extra expense necessary to get
out this edition amounts to more
than thirty dollars; yet every dollar
of profit will be given TO the monu-
ment fund. This is our contribu-
ton. Every extra copy sold means
two cents for the monument.
Haven't you some absent friend to
whom you want to send copy?
To help out the monument fund
the girls will pin tags on liberal
looking gentlemen, charging mod
est sum for the good judgment
exercised in selecting the subject.
It's compliment to be tagged by
pretty girl and those who wear the
little badges of honor do so with the
knowledge that their contribution
is helping to make possible the
beautiful memorial to the Confeder-
ate soldiers.
We return appreciative thanks to
Dr w f. Whitlock of Scranton and
Drs L w Moore and L H Thomas of
Lake City, m mbers of the
graduating class of the South
Carolina Medical college, for in
vitations to the commencement ex-
ercises held on Wednesday even
ing, May q, in the Academy of
Music, Charleston. The annual ad-
dress was delivered by Prof Yates
Snowden, member of the faculty
of South Carolina University.
We are working this week under
a great strain with many different
things to look after besides the get
ting out of the Memorial Edition.
We ask, therefore, to be pardoned
for failing to do something expect
ed of us that may have been
overlooked. We are trying to give
due attention to everything, but
one mind cannot grasp many trif-
ing details without danger of over
looking some of them. For sins of
commission, as we'll as commission,
we ask, in advance, kind indulgence.

The above cut is fair represen-
tation of the monument to the
Williamsburg Soldiers of the Con-
federacy to be unveiled here next
Tuesday, except that the figure in
the picture will be replaced by the
statue of Confederate soldier in
the uniform of a private. On two
sides of the monument, facing east
and west, will be chiseled inscrip-
tions. The side facing the railroad
is inscribed as follows: Erected
by Williamsburg Chapter U D c
and the Citizens of the County, May
10, 1910, to the Memory of the
Soldiers of Williamsburg County,
Who Fought for the Rights of the
Southern Confederacy."
On the opposite face, towards the
river, appears the following inscrip-
ton:
ITO the Gallant Band of Volun-
teers from Williamsburg Whose
Courage, Zeal and Devotion Fed the
Fires of Patriotism During Four
Years of Arduous Conflict. They
Sacrificed their all on the Altar of
Their County Without Hope of Re-
ward Save Honor"
The monument is a granite shaft,
80 feet in height, supporting the
figure of a Confederate private
soldier in uniform. This statue
will be chiseled out of the finest
Italian marble.
