The third annual fair has gone
down in history and it must be re-
corded as the best of the three fairs
held.
The first two days Of the fair there
was exceptionally fine weather. Fri
day, the last day, the rain descended
in torrents and caused the attendance
to be quite small for that day. ~
The officers of the fair and the di-
rectors deserve the praise of every
one who rejoices in the advancement
Of Union county. They were untif-
ing in their efforts to get the best
possible results in this fair, and they
succeeded. The officers of the fair
