The faithful and efficient treasurer. Mrs. K. K. Hill, w;is greutly missed as she left that day for Montreat. How ever, she left u fine report, which was read by the secretary, and the entire chapter rejoiced that they had gone "over the top." and would he ready Monday morning to turn over to the finance committee the sum of $500, the amount tin* chapter pledged for the Reunion. The president thanked the Chapter for the unity, loyalty and splendid work, nnd they all agreed that it hud tn'en a "l'olly Anna Job," that had brought gladness and gratification.
