fame-she who was It's gracious mistress
during the reign of Buchanan. Judge
Gresham was a cousin of Mrs. Helen
Plane OF Atlanta, the mother of the At

recent letter to Mrs. Plane, Mrs. Gres-
ham said the Idea OF the Spirit of the
Confederacy" came to her in a very prov
idential sort of manner. She suggested
her idea to the committee of the Mary
land Daughters OF the Confederacy. and
they in turn made the suggestion to Mr..
Ruckstuhl. the famous sculptor, who car
ried 1t out 30 wonderfully.
The sculptor now has a studio in New
York, but comes from Missouri He is a
warm Sympathizer with the South, and
said of his group to the committee:
1T Is an apotheosis of the Confederacy

patience. 1t also suggests the splendid
role of the Southern woman who. by her
