We regret that we are not receiv-
ing our old and reliable friend the
Union Republican. of Georgetown,
due to recent fire in that building;
We understand that its publication
may not be resumed. For years Tom
Hart was a valued acquaintance,
and now a visit TO the county seat
would not be complete without drop
ping in to see Elmer Wilson and
Fred Mcgee. So We are hoping that
repairs and adjustments will soon
be made and that soon we will well
come back the smiling countenance
and cheerful news and gossip of the |
Union Republican even il its name |
is a misnamer.
