-.TRIBUTE TO~MRS. THOMAS.
The Augusta Chronicle of May 22
contained the beautiful tribute paid by
the Ladles' Memorial Association there
to Mrs. Jefferson Thomas, who was
lenerally beloved here In Atlanta. The
resolutions offered by the memortal as-
locution were In part aa follows:
“Whereas, In the harvest Helds of
Me. In the time of the ripened grain.
Death, the Harvester, has taken Mrs.
Jefferson Thomas, our friend and as
sociate. in her deceaaa the family and
friends have suffered an Irreparable
loss; to her It was:
"•Golden sheaves and scattered grain.
Days aha had not lived In vain.’
“Days nobly planned, and deeds that
crowned her In the beautiful city of
virtue and godliness.
"In every relation of life she was
hobly Inclined: as wife, mother, friend
and patriot—we may add that In all of
our .Southland, could not be found a
more patriotic heart.
"In the days of the country*! crista
snd struggle, when conditions devel
oped characters, our friend stood the
lest, and no heart beat more fervently
for the welfare of the struggling land,
*nd no heart sorrowed more deeply
»hen Its hope went down. Accepting
defeat with a resignation that was a
Part of her nature, she contemplated
the condition of tho land, taking In Its
heeds and realised that, although wea
ned In the four years' effort, the women
of the South could not told their
hands, there was work to do.
"Monuments must be erected, records
kept, graves preserved. To do this
women came together and orgnnlaed
themselves In bands called associations,
each woman pledging herself to con
centrate every energy In furtherance
of the object In view.
"In our city the Ladles’ Memorial As.
soclatlon was organized, and Mrs.
Thomas was a valued member for thtr.
ty years; seven years secretary of the
association.
“How well she served other Confed
erate organizations In mother home Is
honorably recorded, and how much de
pended upon her wisdom and brave
effort!
"To the very last showing a loyal
fidelity for the cause and memories she
assisted In keeping green!
"Be It resolved. That our associate
has left our ranks forever on earth,
and there will be one woman the less
of the old days to labor for our heroes
both living and dead: that we will sor
rowfully keep In our remembrance
what she had been as a co-worker and
associate: that God has taken her from
us to His home, where she will be fsr
removed from change and human ca
lamity.
