Big Day at Bogansville.
The .members of Putnam Camp, located
at Bogansville, are making
plans for a big time on the afternoon
of the 4th of July. They will serve ice

arranged to have speeches from several
distinguished men.

Mr. J. Miller Arthur, student at
the S. C. M. A., at Charleston, won the
"Star of the West" medal for being
the best drilled cadet in the whole
corps.
This is quite an honor and Mr. Arthur's
friends in Union congratulate
him.
Letter From an Old Soldier.
Jonesville, S. C., June 15, 1912.
Mr. Editor of Union Times:
I have been thinking of late a good
deal. The pension board of Union
county adjourned the first Monday in
March, last, all members of the board
being present?Dr. M. W. Culp, R. W.
Tinsley, H. S. Porter, B. G. Wilburn,
and N. B. Eison, composing the board.
All expressed the thought that they,
had treated all old soldiers and widows
tf soldiers justly. Since then I?r. M.
W. CulD has fiTOne. He wna a flraf
class man and did not hesitate to do
his whole duty in every case towards
our old wounded and disabled soldiers
and wives of soldiers (widows). Next
H. S. Porter, an old soldier of Co.
C, 7th S. C. Cavalry, was called to the
beyond. He did his duty as a soldier
and- as a citiden and on the Pension
board, for several years and always
tried to do what was right; and
la&t, our old true and tried friend,
R. W. Tinsley. He was a high private
in Co. C, 13th S. C. V. He was
wounded in the first battle of Cold
Harbor, Va., on June 27th, 1862, shot
through the right lung and left on the
battle-field as dead, later carried to
the hospital, and after a long time
was furloughed and brought home and
placed on light duty. After the war,
summer of 1866, I met him at my old
Uncle Andrew Floyd's, at Burned Factory,
on Tygey river. He asked me
about opening a jewelry shop some

time and told him there was an opening
for a good man in that line, old
man Powell was not doing much, and
Christian Keisler gone back to Germany
and A. Von Beiman too old to
do much, so he came in 1866 and he
rented tools from Mr. J. Ed Meng, and
later on he bought the tools. He married
Miss Sallie Rogers and continjed
in the jewelry business and raised
i large family. He lost his wife (

,he ashes of all these members of the
joard. We will have to have a new
>oard next year, as the other member,
Vfr. B. G. Wilburn, is a candidate for
;he legislature and will be elected.
On the 12th of this month, 1861, I
was color bearer of Co. E, 121 S. C.
V. I. We had a fight at Vienna, Va,
with the Yankees. We did not lose a
nan; the enemy lost 300 or more,
tilled and wounded and captured.

the Yankees, who were on board

Danville, Va., on the Potomac river.
We charged and killed the first man,
i Yankee. I saw his head shot off
jven with his lower jaw. They were
>n a flat car and were playing cards.
\11 four were killed. This Yankee
with no head, held his hand of cards,
(hearts were trumps), and he held the
ice, jack and duce, and his partner
ield the king and ten. W. H. Carlisle,

I have been requested by many
people, old and young, to write up
tome incidents of the great war between
the States. I will write again
sut hope it will not be so sad.
N. B. Eison.
The Candidates.
This is the year for the candidates.
Some are out early and some are late;
Some are merry and glad, resigned to
fate;
Others are solemn and sad and full
of hate.
There is almost a little host of them,
And some are leaving the ring;
Quite the thoughtful proper thing,
Better than defeat in the closing campaign.
Over the State has long been indebtedness,
Some of the candidates have told us;
Has the Governor with all his rudeness
Wiped out this indebtedness by
shrewdness ?
Half a million dollars in two years.
Not by any means a small affair,
Surely this is good news for all to
hear,
And some one deserves a hearty cheer.
Taxes have not been made one bit
larger,
Who can manage business any smarter?
These are facts for all to argue,
When high taxes has long been the
sorrow. _
Come every one to the campaign
meetings
And hear the wise speeches and hearty
greetings;
Come for time and chance are fleeting,
Come for woman suffrage ia increasing.
Husband be sure to bring your wife.
She will help to keep you from strife;
She needs the candidates' advice.
It will enlighten and brighten her life.
Wife don't fail to come with your
husband,
For the sake of your own dear children;
Gain some knowledge of political information,
It .s an important part of education.
Come one and all, both young and old,
Let the voice of honest justice call;
Remember that it is by our law
That we must all either stand or fall.
Eliza A. Garner.
Kelton, S. C., Route 1.

WHY HE WAS CRAZY.
(The following was contributed by
a subscriber who got the clipping
from an old newspaper):
A man in the insane asylum gives
the following reasons why he is crazy:

daughter, and the widow married me
Then my father, who was a widower,
met my step-daughter and married
her. That made my wife the motherin-law
of her father-in-law, and made
my step-daughter my mother and my
father my step-son. Then my stepmother
,the step-daughter of my wife,
had a son. That boy of course was
my brother because he was my
father's son. He was also the son of
my wife's step-daughter, and therefore,
her grand-son; that made me
grandfather to my step-brother. Then
my wife had a son. My mother-inlaw,
the step-sister of my son, is also
his grandmother, because he is her
sten-son's child. Mv father is the
brother-in-law of my child, because
his step-sister is his wife. I am the =
brother of my own son, who is also
the child of my step-grandmother. I
am my mother's brother-in-law. My
wife is her own child's aunt. My son
is my father's nephew ,and I am my
own grandfather. And after trying
to explain the relationship in our family
some seven times a day to our
calling friends for a fortnight, I was
brought here?No, came of my own
free will.

I have some furniture?desk,

can. now buy very cheap, for the prospects
are that as much as I would
like to, I may never live in Union
again. The desk is a solid walnut
one and was bought for sentiment's
sake, as well as the chair that goes
with it. It belonged to an oia iriena
of mine who has gone to his last
sleep. The filing cabinets are the best
made in oak, modern in every respect
and most convenient for anyone who
is at all systematic. They cost about
S20 each. Miss Ada Hancock, who
now occupies the building, or my

sold by salesday in July it will then
be sold to highest bidder in front of
