SOUTHERN MOTHERS ASSOCIATION.
The following are the proceedings at the last
meeting Of this association
The society met according to notice, the
vice-presideat in the chair. After reading the
minutes, the secretary presented the subject of
the preceding week, which had not been print
ed at The desire Of some Of the members, who
feared that it mightseam like an attack on the
officers Of the 81 Arkansas regiment-Col.
Hindman-and provoke unpleasant r~ecrimiua-
ton from them. though the report contained a
fair statement Of facts in regard to the atten-
ton rendered the men Of that regiment, and
their removal by Col. Hindmsn. On motion,
the meeting approved the action OF the secre-
tary in withholding the report. The Eighth
ward not beng fully represented, was passed
over. A committee frsm the Chelsea South
cru mothers, consisting Miss Rachael Rawlings
and Mrs. C. A. s. Richardson, requested that
the Chelsea society be received into union
with he Memphis association, and paid over
"a -. -, - go m Ebr VrorpF IN
their treasury. They further requested to be
allowed to take the place of the 9Th ward in
the management Of the rooms for The week
following Tuesday, 10Th, and committees were
appointed accordingly.
On motion it was decided to advertise
for a hospital orderly and another servant.
Mrs. Dr.. Sale, The clerk pro tenn. Eos the week
ending July 1st., paid into the Treasury S99'
being donations received at the rooms Mrs.
s. W. Vernon, permanent clerk, paid in, fer
the two weeks since July 1st, S47.65, and
reported that the sum of $l29.g5 would be
realized from the benefit kindly offered by Mr..
Harry Mccarthy to the society. On motion,
members having sick soldiers in their houses
were authorized to procure medicines for them,
having the prescriptions made out by the
attending physician, with the name of the SOL
der, his company, etc, and present the sc-
counts to the president for paynent- The
president PRO te1.. Mrs. DR.. Sale, was allowed
$50 for contingent expenses. A donation Of
$40 was received through Mrs. D. NJ. CurTin,
from Miss Marianne S5jth, who had collected
it from various persons, for which the 30
ciety tender their sincere thanks. The
acting secretary Of the previous meeting
having omitted to mention that the Pa
nola donation came through Mrs. L. Bal
lock, the secretary YVES instructed to remedy
the omission and repeat the thanks OF the So
ciety. The officers being all personally en-
gagged in the care OF the sick soldiers, it is
necessary that the friends Of the society should
be very lenient to any apparentlsck OF courtesy
in noticing their donations. The ali engrosss
ing duties OF the sick rooms making it slmos
impossible to do justice 10 tue may kind and
patriotic friends Of the cause. Managers
were directed to canvass their wards and 20
bring full lists Of the numbers in them to the
vice precedent, who will in their regular course,
serve on the visiting and supply committees,
so that no mistakes may occur in that impor-
tant department. The nursing is arranged by
the clerk at the rooms with the surgeon, G..
W. Curry, NJ. D., and is quite independent OF
the ward committees. Mex week will be the
week in regular course for the Fret ward to
attend the rooms, but few members in that and
tue Second ward being enrolled, both wards
we're requested to attend the meeting on Satur-
day morning, July 9th, that ne delay may &C.
eur in making up the committees.
MAR F. PoPE, Sec'y.
