Housetops in the vicinity were crowded, and the small boys even occupied every avail able tree. With an appropriate speech, Colonel Walter A. Harris, chairman of the gen eral reunion committee, placed tfie crown on the queen’s beautiful head of auburn hair. Mayor John T. Moore then presented her with an immense golden key of the city, General C. Ir vine Walker presented her with a dia mond ring, the gift of the Sons of Vet erans, and Mrs. W. D.
