Since when did the historians give Mecklenburg county credit for being the birthplace of Andrew Jackon? The Charlotte Observer, after Morri son la elected Governor of the State, is advised to refresh its historical knowledge. Jackson was born in the Waxhaws community, a part of Union county. It might be of interest to Morri non's opponents to know that the Charlotte Observer has iven Mr. Gardner's public utterances more space than any other paper in North Carolina, with the possible exception of the Shelby Star, published in Mr. Gardner's home county. Union coun ty folks, who believe in sticking by the "home man" should not be too hasty In criticizing The Observer for doing that very same thing. ! jhh.i: sr.( i:y j Judge.
