Corresponding Secretary, Mrs T C GOODWIN. Recording Secretary, Miss Annie WOOD. Treasurer, Mrs J D WEATHERS. Historian, Miss Lena HARDY. Registrar, Miss Elsie SHARP. Director, Mrs J W RADNEY. There were between 30 and 40 charter members, and many more are expected to join. Regular meetings are to be held on the first Tuesday in each month. By ballot the chapter was named “F P RANDLE Chapter.” The ladies could hardly have honored the memory of a more chivalrous gentlemen [sic], noble citizen and gallant soldier. A picturesque feature of the occasion was the presence of three Confederate veterans in uniforms of gray -- Capts W A HANDLEY, A J DRIVER and B F WEATHERS.
