To the Voters of Washington County
Summary
The Union Central Committee of Washington County writes that it has nominated a candidate to fill a vacancy in the county delegation to the Maryland General Assembly. It has nominated Lewis P. Firey [sic; Fiery] of Clear Spring. It urges citizens to support the Union, which doesn’t necessarily mean supporting the Lincoln administration. As a border state within the Union, Maryland can still work to bring about a settlement between the sections.
