The dwelling OF the Confederate
Monument!
From the Fort Smith Times

From the Fort Smith Times.
thursday was happy day for the
'arina Jefferson Davis chapter of the
U. Z. V. of this city. The monument
which was unveiled with such beauti-
ful and appropriate ceremonies, repre-
sented the toll of years, the fruition of
hope long deferred. Among the dis
tinguished Daughters who occupied
seats of honor on the platform were
Mrs. Abbie Sparks of Columbia, Mo.
whose late husband Captain James
Sparks was in command of the first
company Of Confederate soldiers Or
ganized In this city. Mrs. Henry A.
Meyer of Van Buren,, who with the
deeply lamented Miss Fannie Scott. Or
ganized this chapter in September.
1898; Mrs. Pagan of Galveston, whose
husband, General Pagan, was such a
valiant defender of the Confederacy,
and Mesdames Queen Scott and Philip
Scott Of Van Buren,. The heart of
every Daughter present was touched by
the sight of Miss Fannie Scots beauti-
full banner carried so proudly by the
J.T. Stuart camp, U. CIV. as we'll rs by
the magnificent tribute which Mr..
j. NJ. Hill paid to Arkansas Daughter.
Miss Sengel's rendition of Mr.. W. j.
Weaver s admirable poem, which was
composed for the occasion, was the
subject of much favorable comment.
Misses Daisy Crsvens and Jessie
McCorkle were the cynosure of all eyes
as they advanced to remove the veil
which enveloped the monument. Both
young ladies wore picture hats and
dainty gowns of white Paris muslin
elaborately trimmed in tucks and
applique.
Mrs, Kate Cabell Curry's appearance
on the platform was delightful sur
prise as many were under the impress
sion that she had not arrived and her
little impromptu address was greatly
enjoyed, This distinguished daughter
Of the South would attract attention in
any assemblage. 1t was graceful act
on the part of Col. Winchester to call
for three cheers for General Cabell and
General Cabell' lovely daughter, and
one which was highly appreciated by
the Daughters.
The invitation which WAS extended to
the Mary Lee chapter Of the U. c. V.
of Van Buren to attend the unveiling of
the Confederate monument in this city
on Thursday last failed to reach its
destination, greatly to the regret of the
Daughters of this city who had hoped
and expected that the Van Buren
Daughters would attend in body.
