The morning news. [volume] (Savannah, Ga.) 1887-1900, 1900-05-06

Thursday was the most perfect day In
the week of ideal spring weather we have
had and was happily chosen for the
ladies' tournament at the golf links

event. and the beautiful little cup which
Mrs. Gibbes presented made the contest
doubly interesting. To those who are not
members of the club il was a revelation

see how picturesque it is. From the old
fortifcations-that make the course such
an interesting one-the view is really fine,
with the river and shipping on one side
and to the westward the distant spires OF
Savannah wrapped in haze. The pretty
club house adds greatly to the scene,
and here, after the last contestant had
made her score. the cup was presented 10
