Hill SecOnd-SedaIia Won
First Place in Athletic
Contest.

The Union County Fair this year
was greatly hindered by the inclement
weather, that is, the attendance was
greatly hindered, although the exhibits
were quite good. The first day was so
unfavorable that the "school day" was
postponed to Friday, and the fair
scheduled to run through Saturday.
But for the weather this would have
been the best fair yet held. The rae
ing each day was attempted, but the
muddy track greatly hindered this
feature. The prize winners are given
below:
