    2. "The Free Lance" Issue May 13, 1904 A Valuable Relic The company flag of company "A" 13th regiment of which Captain B. T. BROCKMAN was captain has been in the sheriff's office for some time. As to how it came and how long it has been there is unknown to the sheriff. The flag is valuable on account of its historic associations. It was saved on the night of the evacuation of Richmond - April 2, 1865, by Dr. T. A. LATAR [ or LALAR] and presented by him to the state of South Carolina. It was made by the sisters and daughters of Capt. David ANDERSON. Sheriff WHITE is anxious to know who left it there and who secured it from the state, in order that it can be returned through proper channel to its rightful owner.
