APPEAL FOR CONFDER ATE
RELICS.
In behalf of the memorial museum
now established for the preservation
of Southern memorials and relics in
the mansion occupied by Hon. Jell'
Davis while president of the Confed
eracy this appeal is made, to which
every citizen of Georgia is earnestly
asked to give sympathy and support.
This historic building wis given by
the city of Richmond to the Confed
erate Memorial Literary Society, an
association whose object was to teach
future generations the true history of
the w ar. Every State is to have a
distinct resresentation on the Board
of Managers by a lady regent from
that State, and also a seperatc room in
which to deposit • its sacred relics of
the glorious past.
It should be the pride and glory ol
the South to furnish the Memorial
Museum in the former e. pital of the
Confederacy, for no city in the land is
so associated with the unparalelled
heroism of the Souther i people as
Richmond, wlpj.se hills overlook these
battle fields immortalized by tUt chiv
alry of soldiers from every state. And
surely within the walls of the mansion
wjiepe so often gathered the valiant
men and true, those lasting ipeniorials
of the noble sons and daughters of all
the South should be sacredly guarded
that the past may ever be held in
honored remembrance.
In furtheranre of this design the
Association asks for contributions of
original documents, pictures and ar
ticles of juiy kind that tend to show
the habits and manner of living of the
people, or of the soldiers of the South
ern States, from 1801 to 1805. Ihe
Society suggest that these contribu
tions be given as a memorial of some
soldier, sailor or patriot; or of sonny
battle, siege or march, the mernqry
of which the donor desires to preserve.
To each article should be attached a
record uf the person, customer event
it commemorates. The Museum is
thoroughly fire-proof and guarded so
that the relics placed there will be in
no danger of destruction.
Through the generosity of Mrs.
de Renne, of New York, formerly of
Savannah, Georgia has the nucleons
of a magnificent collection, as yet far
exceeding in yalue that of any other
state. Let Georgia keep to the front
in this patriotic work,
i,Among the ladies in charge of the
.Museum are Mrs. Joseph Bryan, Fies
ident; Mrs. Lizzie Cary Daniel, Cor
responding Secretary; Mrs. James R.
Wertb, Chairman of Relic Committee ,
Miss Winnie Davis, Regent for Mis
sissippi; Miss Mildred Lee, Regent for
Virginia; Miss Daisy Hampton, Re
gent for South Carolina; Mrs James
P. Harrison, Vicc-Rcgent tor Georgia,
and other well-known Southern
women.
It is desired that all ’ contributions
from Georgia be fowayded as early as
possible to Mrs. Joseph Bryan, Presi
dent, Richmond, Ya., or to
ROBERT E. PARK,
for Georgia, Macon, Ga.
