Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Address, Delivered by Miss. Mildred Lewis Rutherford, Athens, Georgia, Historian General, the United Daughters of the Confederacy, 1911-1916: The Civilization of the Old South; What Made It; What Destroyed It; What Has Replaced It
It has brought me in close historical touch with distinguished men and women all over our land, and it has enabled me to form many charming friendships, for which I thank you. The beau tiful words of appreciation I have received from all have touched me greatly, especially the tender, loving words of encourage ment, cheer, and help that have come to me from our Veterans. God bless and keep them with us many more years to aid us in righting the wrongs against our South and her high ideals.
I must not lose this opportunity, Daughters of the Confederacy, one and all, to thank you for the lovely roses you have so freely cast into my life! I have ever believed in the doctrine of throw ing the roses while one lives - so there will be no need for you to send any ?oral tribute to lay upon my casket when this life on earth shall have ended.
