Festival
Summary
The newspaper writes to urge support of a festival sponsored by the Ladies of Hagerstown to benefit the Sanitary and Christian Commissions. It will be held at Lyceum Hall and there will be refreshments for purchase as well as an exhibit of the contributions to the State Fair. The commissions provide valuable assistance to soldiers in the field and in hospital, so citizens should be "active and liberal" in their support of the festival.
