Rensselaer Semi-Weekly Republican, Volume 34, Number 87, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 1 July 1902 — Big New Flag For the Court House. [ARTICLE]

Big New Flag For the Court House.

Janitor Morlan of the court house has just received a fine new flag to be run up on the court house flag pole on appropriate occasions. This flag is a very fine piece of work, and is made of a a good heavy quality of bunting. It is a big one, being fifteen feet in width by thirty feet long and was purchased through A. F. Long of a Chicago firm. The price paid is $24. This flag will replace the one given by Daughters of American Revolution some four or five years ago which has become badly frayed and tattered. It will likely not be run up before next Friday, the 4th of July.
