1929
U.D.C. Notes:
South Carolina- The Daughters of the South Carolina
Division have been instrumental in having the legislature make an increase
this year in Confederate pensions. The ranks are thinning fast and the
remaining few deserve this increase.
A special appropriation of $100. to clean the statue
of Gen. Wade Hampton, on the capitol grounds, was also secured by the
Daughters, the need of this having been brought before the State convention
at Columbia in December and the legislature petitioned accordingly.
The birthday of Robert El. LEE was fittingly
observed at the Confederate Ho0me, Columbia, where there are 58 veterans and
16 Girls of the Sixties, the program being arranged by the Central
Committee.
MISS KATIE HUTCHINSON leader, of Rock Hill Chapter
E.M. Law has a membership of 100, while the Chapter at Greer, MISS BERTIE
SMITH, leader, has about 80 members.
