HISTORY OF THE SOCIETY.
The history of the jefferson Davis
Mansion IS Wen known 10 almost every
southerner But very little has been
written and said Of that noble band Of
women who have converted it TO its
present appropriate uses-the Confederate
Memorial Literary Society. After the city
Of Richmond got possession OF its pro-
pcrtv dit having owned The place for
several years prior TO the war from the
Federal Government, in 1870, it converted
the Mansion into white public school.
The historic structure served this pur-
pose for many years. and ii was held as
ominenuy fitting that the hearts and
minds Of southern children should be
trained and taught within those halloweG
walls As time rolled on, however, the
women Of the South talked about the
need OF a Confederate museum, and the
patient. self-sgerihclng women OF Rich
mond took the forefront in this move
