After srrious consider ation of many sites, the recent con ference in Johnston voted to accept ne at Tomassee in Ocone? county,, ten miles from Walb.alla and three j a miles from the government forest re- ' nnmnrispi; Itfl acrM.

As this price is considerably below J the present value of tlie land it shows * the confidence of these public spirit ed people in the sincerity of the D. A. R. and reflects the desire of the community for such a school. Site Is Pickens Home. Of special historic interest to tbe people of South Carolina is the fact that this is the region of the govern ment land grants ma<?e to Gen. [An drew Pickens for his Revolutionary services and he retired to this moun tain spot to spend his declining years at Tomassee. Those who have seen tie wonaerrui views irurn ut'i c uu uut. | marvel at his choice. From a utilitarian standpoint the ?ite is desirable for many feasons. I The considerations which the Daugh ters have had in mind in determining the location of this school are that it should b3 remote yet accessible, where the need was greatest, and ouv ooming be in answer to a manifested desin? of the people for the aid we sffer. This place is ten miles frosi the'terminal point of the railroad, yet has excellent roads with R. F. D. service by auto once a day. The only schools within many miles of this spot are held in small, crowded build iags greatly in need of repair, ana j open for only two or three raontas j in the year. The eagerness of the people for our school has been evi denced by their generous contribu tions toward the building fund, ana uieir promise of labor and coopera tion. School 0*>ens >e\t Fall. The conference which accepted this site created a school board of seveu j members with the State regent ! ohairman, three members elected by conference (now Mrs. Duvall, Mr*. Carlisle and Mrs, Hayne Jones, all members of the D. A. R.), these four to .elect three additional members, who may be either men or women all terms to be for three years.

She was 3u years old. Mrs. Boiss vain was siricken sad denly while addressing an audience i..i this city during the rece.it political campaign and fainted on the platform. She was removed to a hospital and her j liusband and parents rushed from New York to join her here. Miss Viaa Milholland. her sister, was with her when she was stricken and has been ' in consta.-t attendance since that, time.

A few days ago physicians stated there was practically no hope for Mrs. Boissevain, but thereafter she rallied and it was thought she might re cover. I.ate Saturday she began to sink. Her husband, Eugene Boiese vain; ner parems, Air. ana .urs. ouun E. Milhollaud of New York, and her sister, Miss Vida, were present when she died. It was stated that Mrs. Boissevaiu'3 trouble originated in her tonsils, which became inflamed as the result of too constant speaking during th* campaign. She had been weakened by over-exertion and when she became ill her system failed to resist thc advance of the disease. Arrangements were completed Sun Jay to send tue body of Mrs. Boisse vain to lier home in New York tonight for burial. No funeral service will be, held here, it was announced. i Many messages of sympathy have \ been received by members of the j family frcm friends and prominent | workers in the woman's suffrage) cause. Iaex Milholland Boissevain had been I for many years widely known for n?r activity as a woman suffragist, a so . lal welfare worker, an advocate ot i socialism and as a practicing lawyer.

She ^lso made a name for herself as an athlete, being captain J of her class hockey team and won} the college championship, and a\ member of the 1909 track team, at which time she established a new rec ord for the college in the eight-pound shot put at 31 feet 8 7-8 inches. Aside from .her college activities,' she worked among the poor children; of the city of Poukeepsie, and had j her self appointed court probation of- { ficer During her first college vaca tion she visited London and there turned the Panknursr sunrageuea, making several speeches and being twice arrested. During the 1908 presidential cam paign she won new fame as "the girl who broke up the Taft parade." While the parade was being held in New York city she stationed herself in a window and shouted "Votes for wo-j men!" through a megaphone. Some of the marchers fell out of the parade and gathered around her to hear her make a speech for the suffrage cause. Miss Milholland received her de cree in law at the 'New York univer sity law school in 1912, and began the practice of law in 1912, as a cterK id the offices of James W.
