WOMEN OF ASHANTI SEND MARY A GIFT
Silver Stool Has Been Presented
 to Royal Princess

London, Nov. es. - A silver stoo, has been presented to Princess Mary viscountess Lascelles as tho wedding gift of the Queen Mothers Of Ashanti and the Gold Coast. The gift was presented by Lady Guggisberg, wife of the governor of the Gold Coast, il having been given her by Queen Mother Gewa Akoto, of Ashanti. The stool is an exact replica of the Queen Mothers own stool.
 Accompanying the gift was lot ter from Queen Akoto, describing how the stool was made and consecrated The letter reads as follows:
 T place this gift in your hands It is . gift for the kings child or her wedding.
 Ashanti stookmakers have carved 1t. All queen-mothers who dwell here have contributed toward it.
 Tt may be that the kings child has heard of the Golden, Stool oi Ashanti. That is the stool which contains the soul of the Ashanti na- tion. All we women of Ashanti thank the governor exceedingly, be- cause he has declared that the Eng. fish will never again ask us to hand over that stool. This stool we give gladly. It does not contain our soul as the Golden Stool does, but it con tains all the love of us queen mothers and of our women.
 We in Ashanti have law which declares that only the daugh- ters of. queen can transmit royal blood, and that the children of 3 king: cannot be heirs of the stool This law has given us women a power in this land, 50 that we have say ing which runs, It is the woman who bears the men,
 We hear that your law is not so Nevertheless, we have great joy ir sending you our congratulations, rnd we pray the gerat God Nyankopen, or whom men lean and do not fall whose day of worship is Saturday and whom the Ashentis serve just a! you serve Him, that he may give tho kings child and her husband long life and happiness"
