ident, called the meeting to
order. Miss Dorothy Buzhardt,
chaplain, led the opening rit
ual.
Mrs. W. H .Tedford, historian
called attention to the four Red
Letter Days in January. Jan.
22nd was the day on which
Calvin Crozier Chapter was or
ganized in 1909. Then she pre
sented Miss Buzhardt who dis
cussed the accomplishments of
three famous Americans whose
birthdays are celebrated in
January: Matthew F. Maury,
Robert F. Lee and Stonewall
Jackson. Miss Buzhardt read
an article from the UDC mag
azine which gave some bio
graphical data.
Robert E. Lee is called the
incomparable “First Gentle
man of Virginia.” Entering the
Military Academy at West
Point at the age of 18, he
made during the next four
years a perfect cadet record,
graduating at the head of his
class of 1829. He received his
commission as second lieuten
ant in the Engineer Corps. La
ter, in 1852, he was appointed
superintendent of his Alma
Mater.
In the Confederate army he
distinguished himself as a
strategist and tactician. Sever
al years after the close of the
war he became the president
of Washington College, n o yr
Washington and Lee Universi
ty. He died October 12, 1780 at
the age of 63.
Thomas Johnathan Jackson
was born January 21, 1824.
When he was three years of
age he was an orphan. Al
though he had scant education
background, he received an
appointment to West Point. He
had a remarkable career as a
brilliant courageous soldier and
was a profoundly religious
man. His career ended tragi
cally.
Matthew Fontaine Maury
was bom near Fredericksburg,
Va. January 14, 1896. His fam
ily moved to Tennessee during
his early years. He received a
commission in the U. S. Navy
which he resigned at the out
break of the Confederate war,
serving as commander in the
Navy of Virginia and then in
the Confederacy. In 1862 he
served as an agent to England
for the Confederacy. He has
been called the “Pathfinder of
the Seas” because he contribut
ed much to improve ocean tra
vel.
After the interesting pro
gram, the president conducted
a business session during which
she welcomed Mrs. W. Roy
Anderson and Mrs. A. H.
Counts back into the chapter.
She announced that the Lee-
Jackson program would be held
at Newberry High school Jan
uary 21 at 9:15 a.m.
