am afraid. even If she is much bette
by Friday. it will not be possible to
her to receive nj the Assembly tina
night. And many Of us will be yer
disappointed not to sec that charmin

natrouesses. II is likely that Mrs
o. H. Perry Pepper will not rrceiy ih
that night, either, on account of tn
death of Doctor Peppers cousin, Mrs
C,laxtop. The other patroncsses of tn
hall arc Mrs. John Il. Thaycr, Mrs

Yarpall and Mrs, Charlie Chcston.
