So I was reading an old issue of the Asahi Shimbun and I came across this:

What does ゑ mean here?
It's the archaic hiragana, 'we.' It was declared obsolete after WWII but when
it is rarely used it's usually read the same as え. I think it's meant to mean
へ is this context, just dressed up. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/We_(kana)
