Daughter. of the Confederacy

AS compliment to a beloved mem
Der and with a desire to perpetuate
itself in constructive and lasting SER
vice, the Alabama Daughters of the
Confederacy this morning raised al
most $140O for the Virginia Clay -Clop
ton sch olarship, with which a girl is
to be educated at the Girls Industrial
school at Montevallo. With a tear in
her voice and on her cheek, Mrs. Clay
Clopton, who was on the rostrum,
thanked her associates for the compli-
ment in the name of the scholarsh ip
and the alacrity with which they sub
scribed the money.
The incident and that of the reading
of a report by mere child, Miss Rosa
May O'Neal of Huntsville. were high
points in the enth usiasm of the ses-
sion. One of the delegates evidenced
the popular feeling by saying: I'VE
wanted to give Mrs. Clay-Ciopton the
happiness now of having this money
in hand, so we just raised H." And
an hour after, when she was talking
that earnest daughter had not lost the
revived emotions that permeated the
session while the money was being
raised. The report of the child, part
of the reports of the work of the
children, was given hearty and sympa-
thetic reception.
The reports were all satisfactory
In addition to six new chapters or
ganized, there were four old ones re-
vived and the secretary reported 400
new membership certificates for the
year. Mrs. ]. N. Thompson of Tus-
cumbia, showed good work done for
the Shiloh monument, which Col HI
larry A. Herbert says must not cost less
than $4,000, and Mrs. Chappelle Cory
stated that the fund for the Airing
ton memorial was being raised rapid
ly. Miss Mary Kirkpatrick reported
that the memorial to the late Col.
j. M Falkner, which took the form
of stone scroll. is now ready to be
placed upon the grave at Marbury.
In addition to the Virginia Clay
Clopton fund for a girl at Montevallo,
the division has a boy at Auburn now
being educated, and the children have
q fund with which a second boy is
being sent to school. The resolutions
on the death of Margaret Jefferson
Davis Hayes, read by Mrs. Virginia
Clay-Clopton, brought about a feeling
of sorrow among the ladies for this
daughter, who has passed to the great
beyond.
