Editor’s Note Book [excerpt]
Expressions of deep sorrow for the death of President
McKinley and of loving sympathy with his bereaved wife have been received from
many chapters. With these came resolutions showing deep detestation of the awful
crime which has deprived our nation of its honored chief and a determination
to continue more earnestly than ever the work made ready for our hands—the teaching
of an enlightened patriotism. This is peculiarly the duty of the Daughters of
the American Revolution.
