Daughters of the American
Revolution, at its meeting
April 20th, paid tribute to two
deceased daughters, Mrs.

many years of loyal service to

objective which our Founding

to secure “the blessings of
liberty”. In definition no
distinction can be drawn
between liberty and freedom.
They are one and the same.
The chapter was especially
happy to have two members
from a distance in attendance,
Mrs. Daisy Harper from
Brunswick and Mrs. Anne
Biles Pope and daughter,
Johnna, from Athens. Plans
were discussed for the lunch
eon meeting to he held May
