THE HOUSE Ol
LOCKHART
Lock hart, Nov. 12.?The Union
county fair this year was real jrood
in many respects; the poultry department
was irood, the fancy work was
splendid and what the farmers had
there was trood. Kvery farmer oupht
to have each year something to take
to the county fair. It would be well
for each community to have a community
booth; yel up a community
spirit in this way and every section
of the county would he represented
at the fair. Ilriny your fine ho^s,
your best sows and sheep, uoats; in
fact, the best you have and make it a
point to raise something specially for
the fair. The grounds are too far
away from town and too hard to jret
to?this may be the reason the farmers
take so little interest. The crowd
Friday was large, well-dressed, good-1
looking and very orderly and the dinners
that were served l>y the ladies
were elegant and well prepared and
plenty of it and the price most reasonable.
I had the pleasure of meeting
the secretary of the fair association:
he is a very busy man, but
stop perl long enough to talk to me
awhile. Taking it all in all, the Union
county fair was a success for 1917

lease, Mr. President,
Turn Me Loose.
Judge Henry C. Hammond has in
s possession a letter written by a
irke county negro to President Willi
asking that he be excused from
my duty. The epistle is interesting
om several points of view. ^The ne o's
poor spelling is one of the feares
that is rather refreshing, while
s manner of expression is just as inreesting.
The letter to the President was
ritten, after the negro had been ex
nined and accepted by the exemption
>ard and his application for exempon
had been denied by the district
>ard at Macon. Judge Hammond
is the original letter, which bears
le White House stamp, showing that
reached the capital. The Presimt's
secretary turned the letter over
i Provost Marshal General Crowder,
ho in turn sent it to the adjutant
eneral of Georgia, and he sent it to
herifY Sam G. Story, of Burke counr.
The sheriff presented the letter
i Judge Hammond while Burke counr
court was in session, he thoughT it
) interesting that he interrupted the
>urt procedure long enough to read
aloud.
The letter, just as the negro wrote
, reads as follows;
