Excerpt from Singleton's Nashville Business Directory: For 1865 In April, 1862, S. C. Mercer, who had been exiled from Southern Kentucky by the rebels, where he had published the last unconditional union newspaper which existed in that region, by invitation of leading unionists, started the first loyal newspaper in Nashville, since the outbreak of the rebellion, under the style of The Nashville Union, of which he continued sole editor, with eminent success, till the winter of 1863-4, when, for the purpose of promoting the welfare of the national cause, he started The Nashville Times and True Union, which immediately obtained a wide circulation. Its position has been national and anti-slavery from the first, and the great truth of human equality its basis. It has lived to see the partial success of its principles, and will see their triumph consummated, or will perish willingly with the ideas which gave it birth. The Times having a very large circulation, is the best advertising channel in Nashville. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
