Lady's Fan, Rolled Bandages, and Patriotic Cockade
The lady's fan of the nineteenth-century was made of paper and wood. It was a necessity to cool a

joined the Soldiers' Aid Society and rolled bandages or collected supplies for the soldiers. They
wore a patriotic cockade to support the Union cause.
