The "Nancy Harts" of Lagrange.

We are informed that the ladies of Lagrange, to the number of about forty organized themselves, on Saturday Last, into a military corps for the purpose of drilling and target practice. They elected Dr. A.C. Ware as their Captain; and, we believe, resolved to meet every Saturday. The following are the officers;

Dr. A. C. Ware, Captain
Mrs. Nannis Morgan, First Lieutenant
Mrs. Peter A. Heard, Second Lieutenant
Miss Aley Smith, Third Lieutenant
Miss Andelie Bull, Frist Sergeant
Miss Augusta Hill, Second Sargeant
Miss M.E. Colquitt, Third Sargeant
Miss Pack Beall, First Corporal
Miss Lelia Pullen, Second Corporal
Miss Sallie Bull, Third Corporal
Miss Ella Key, Treasurer.

The corps not having a name, and it being their determination to prepare to defend their homes, if necessary, as did Nancy Hart of olden time, we have taken the liberty of calling them the "Nancy Harts" Until the shall adopt one. We have no doubt they will prove as true as did Nancy Hart if the emergency ever presents itself; and, therefore, we do not think a more appropriate name should be suggested. The "Nancy Harts" of LaGrange! That's It, ladies LaGrange Reporter.
