i Report of the IT. I>. O. Convention to
The Charleston Chapter.
At the aonual meeting of the
Charleston Chapter D. C., lire,
Smyth's report of the Camden Con
vention was so pleasant a one, that
it was moved and seconded ttiat
the Secretary be asked to forward a
eopy of this report to the John D.
Kennedy Chapter.
"Having had the honor of aoting
as ch airman of your delegation, It
is my duty and .pleasure to report
to you . the.reauit of our mission.
The Convention lately held in
Camden was one of the most suc
cessful in our experience. Manyu
Chapters were represented, very few
by proxies, but generally by dele
gates, and delegates of intelligence
who were alert and active in the
work, showing great interest and
appreciation of all its branches.
The number of Chapters in thjp
State ie increasing with great
rapidity, seven being added to the
list in the last year ? if I have not
been misinformed. This is in a
great measure attributable to the
good work of the officers who have
now retired, leaving their places
occupiod by worthy euooesaore.
Among these officers we have
a special right to be very proud of
Irhe, retiring President, our Chapter
President, Mrs. James Connor, who
rightly won the admiration of all
by the manner In which she pre
sided. Her Impartiality, justice,
and ease sad indomitable good
humor gave universal pleasure, and
as It was impossible to re-eleot her
as president, she was by acclama
tion. made 1st Vice-President. . For
President, the only trouble wss too
much good material. It was hard
ta ohooee bat the result, the elec
tion of Mrs. Andrew Burnet of Cam
den, could not fail to please any*
Who had come under the Influence
of her personal attraction. ... ?
No one needs assurancs that the
hospitality of Camden wss charm
ing. All the arrangements of the
Convention both for b\Uluees and
pleasure were perfect, and those of
ue who were fortunate enough to
be at the receptions were much Im
pressed bythsir elegance and dig
i titlf*
I ' I need oply add that while the
pages and- ushers of Charleston won
