INCOME TAX RETURNS State and Federal j. ed McConnell 1324 Washington St. Phone 276-2755 UDC Chapter hears reports The Drayton Rutherford Chap ter of the United Daughters of the Confederacy met January 5, at 4:00 p.m. at the home of Mrs. Tom Pope, with Mrs. Gor don Clarkson and Mrs. B. A. Buddin, associate hostesses. Mrs. R. B. Baker, President, opened the meeting by calling on the Chaplain for the ritual. The minutes for the Novem ber and December meetings were read by the Secretary, Mrs. Leon Nichols, and approv ed. The treasurer, Mrs. Lonnie Gilliam, gave her report. The third Vice-President, Mrs. Ralph P. Baker, reported from the Executive Board meeting of the Division Children of the Confederacy, with Mary Baker, Division President. All mem bers were present, except one who was absent due to illness in the family. The purpose of the meeting was to plan for the State Con vention to meet in Rock Hill in March. Mrs. Carolyn Senn of Rock Hill, the newly elected third Vice-President of the South Carolina Division of the U.D.C. attended to advise the children of the Confederacy Executive Board in planning their convention. Committee reports were heard. Mrs. Walter Summer re ported on the project that she and Mrs. Thomas Pope did for the boys in the V. A. Hospital and the Fort Jackson Hospital in Columbia, at Christmas. Mrs. Steve Griffith introduced the speaker for the afternoon, Mrs. A. B. Schriver of Whit mire. whose subject was Ro bert E. Lee. “The Son. Hus band and Father.” She gave a most interesting historical back ground of the Lee family; which made Lee a man of strong views, leader of men, loving son, and gentle and compassio nate husband and father. Robert Edward Lee was the son of Anne Carter and Henry Lee. He was born on January 19, 1807. He was the last of five children, and while in his teens, was left at home with his mother. His father was in Ber muda for reasons of health, at this time. There deveioped a great un derstanding and mutual love be tween mother and son. She taught him the principles of virtue, thrift, and economy. Robert attended Alexandria Academy and later a school conducted by Benjamin Hallo way, a Quaker. It was decided by the family council, that Ro bert should go to Westpoint at age 18, partly to relieve his mother’s financial strain, and partly to enable him to follow the military career of his an cestors. In this young man were blend ed the character of the Carters and the intellect of the Lees. He graduated from Westpoint second in his class, but first in Civil Engineering and Mathe matics. His mother passed away one week before he graduated. After graduation, he plighted his troth to Mary Curtis, daugh ter of George Washington Parke Curtis, son of Parke Curtis and adopted son of George Wash ington and son of Martha by her first marriage. Lee was very fond of his children and “tagged’ each with a pet nickname. His affec tion was returned by his family and friends, his horse, and his dog. Everyone loved this quiet, unaffected man. His blessings were almost beyond comparison. Health, sanity, fortune, an as- surred place in life, and Arling ton, as a home. All these were his. He was distressed over con ditions existing in our country in 1861. He made it known in Virginia that he stood by the Union, but if Virginia succeeded, he would follow the state with his sword. All are familiar with his he-, rioc deeds and all are familiar with his military career as Ge neral of the Confederate States during the War. He did not surrender until the foe was in front and behind his army with out food and clothing. When he returned he had no home and no business. He was a paroled prisoner of war and was incapacitated from hold ing office. Arlington was now a national cemetery. It had been sold for taxes and lost to the family forever. General Lee was offered a position as Presi dent of Washington and Lee Col lege. He accepted. It was to Lexington in a ram bling brick house that General and Mrs. Lee moved. The Ge neral became bright and even gay. as he awaited the arrival of his family seated on his horse. Traveller. Religion became the old sol dier’s existence. His favorite hymn, “How Firm A Founda tion” continued to guide and inspire him. It was here at Lexington, af ter attending Grace Church, the General walked up the hill to his home. Dinner awaited him. Slowly moving to his place at the head of the table, he stood, as was his custom, to ask the blessing. His tongue failed to function. The summons had come. From the couch on the recess window of the dining room, where they laid him, he did not move again. At nine o’clock on the morn ing of October 12. 1870, the heart ceased to beat. A great gentleman was dead. After closing prayer by the Chaplain, Mrs. Pope invited the members into the dining room for delicious refreshments and a social hour. Mrs. Ralph B. Baker poured coffee and Mrs. James E. Wiseman poured tea at a beautifully appointed ta ble.
