Fairfax, June .1, 1927—A distinguished company gathered at Hutmark Friday afternoon on the Lee Highway, two miles north of Fairfax, to commemorate a hitherto unrecorded Civil War episode which ouccred on the morning of May 27, 1861, sixty-six years ago. Fairfax Chapter, United Daughters of the Confederacy, unveiled a monument to Peyton Anderson, the first Confederate soldier to be wounded in the War Between the States.
