SURROUNDING AREA News

Mr. A. J. Farmer, living on Beech Creek in Haralson county, has one of Gen. 
R. E. Lee's shirts, which he prizes very highly. The way he came into 
possession of it was this: while in the hospital at Richmond during the war, 
it was given to him by one of Gen. Lee's daughters. It has the General's 
name on it. Mr. Farmer says that people from Tennessee and Kentucky have 
been to his house to see it. As we have stated, he prizes it very highly and 
nothing could induce him to part with it.
