 ne,ort of the Tuucunabia Chapter.
 Far a number of years the Chapter had worked with the State Division in tnfArast If the Shiloh Monument, hold ing aIwayu in mind that the plot In "Confederate Rest" marked out for memorial was yet thrilled and awaiting the fuinllment of apiedge. Al tne yelling of Shiloh memorial and the state Convention resolutions were passed to reconsider the former decis- ion of placing . monument in the ceTn- ctery, resulting in the adoption Of chapter work for Colbert County monument to be erected in the court house square.
 A comrnittee was appointed and cir cuIara were distributed far and near throughout the counties of Franklin ana Colbert counties. The press came to our ~aid and former citizens as well as our own people are enthused over sums varying from sI to s25. $50 and 4lO0 had been received for the monu- Yaaent, these collectively with the amounts received from two entertain ments gives us bank account of about $500 with the hopes of. being swelled greatly this week from proceeds of an entertainment to be given in which the Daughters themselves will take part.
 The Chapter has these few past months donated $10 to Soldiers Home, s1O to the U.. D. c. pledges for Ariing- ton, wirz. Morgan monuments, s5 to the Pettus-M Morgan memorial. and &200 4o U. D. c Shiloh fund. Under Mrs. Simpsons wise administration the Chapter has prospered and it's member ship increased to about eighty mem- bera.
 It is with regret we learn that she would not stand for reelection.
 On February at the regular meet ing for election of officers. beautiful tribute was offered to Mrs. O. c. simpson by Mrs. A. H. Carmichael. supplemented by Mrs. Thompson, in which was expressed the enlargement of our retiring President, her wise. able, loyal integrityfto the Chapter in- terests. it's harmony and successes.
