Dear Sir: The records in the War Departmeiu show that Union county is one of the few, if not the only, county in the United States that has furnished more men in the service of its country than it was called upon to furnish. If every other county had done as much as Union county it would not have been necessary to have the draft system. I cannot let this opportunity pass without expressing to the people of Union county my sincere appreciation of their loyalty and patriotism. Holding the position that I do on the Military Affairs committee and having stated at various times I believed the people of the United States would furnish sufficient men to voluntarily raising an army, I wish to thank Union county for more than coming up to my expectations. PUasp your people my sincere congratulations and thanks. Sincerely yours, Sam J. Nicholls. CARD OF THANKS. We desire to express our sincere thanks to the many kind friends who ministered so faithfully to our mother, Mrs. Mary Jane French, during her last illness and death. May a kind Heavenly Father give to each one of you, friends, to minister to your needs in the hour of trial. ,'10-1-pd Mr. and Mrs. W. S. Dill. EXECUTIVE BOARD TO MEET.
