(Special to The Bulletin.) ‘Washington, April 20.—Mrs. Sara T, Kinney, Connecticut State Regent, Daughters of the American Revolu- tion, handed in her report for the year just closed, this morning. The report was not read, but will be printed with the proceedings of the congress. In prenwn; her report, Mrs. Kinney said, ifi parf “It is always a happiness to be able to report that the Connecticut D. A. R. continue in well doing along their several lines of patriotic endeavor, and that their adheremce to the objects and aims of the national society is as urquestionable as it is encouraging and invigorating. “Our very efficient state committee for this department has recently pre- pared and sent out to each ehapter a new circular outlining the work for the coming year and a set of 60 stereop- ticon slides have been purchased to be American history to be given for the benefit of our foreign citize1~ “Thirty of our forty-sevea chapters are now earnestly engaged in what we call, patriotic-educational work, and in doing this work we feel that we are not only obeying the injunction of the FPather of our Country, as incorporated in the npational constitution, buut in ed- ucating angd trying to make good Am- erican citizens and patriots of a cer- tain class of American and foreign- born children, we are doing the very best kind of patriotic work for home and country, An interest which is dear to the heart of every Connecticut Daughter iz the care and maintenance of the Ellsworth homéstead, This place con- titues and as’ long as its four walls shall stand it will continue to be & Mecca for patriotic pilgrims, During the last season and up to the middle of November 8§66 guests visited the homestead. It is beautifully cared for | by the custodians. “Our membership remains practical- Iy the same as last year. Among our gains this year, we count two newly discovered “real daughters,” and Mary | Wooster and Hannah Woodruff chap- ters claim them for their own. These additions to our record of real Daugh- ters brings up the number to 103 of those whose names are, or have been, ppon our membership roll. Since our last repor, fifty-four of our members have passed on to other spheres of usefulness, and prominent among those who have gone from us are Mrs. Lydia Bolles_Newcomb, Mrs, Abbie Gunn, Miss Rhoda Thompson and Miss Sa- rah Pritchard. Miss Thompson was one of our few remaining real Daugh- ters. “Since 1895, exclusive of fees and dues sent to_the national societ the Connecticut Daughters have expended upon_ their historical, commemorative, eaucationa] and patriotic work the sum of $180,000. The_chapter reports presented by Mrs. Kinney, were, for eastern Con- necticut, as follows: The Anna Warner Bailey chapter of Grotori and Stonington has raised sev- eral thousand dollars this vear, which will be used for the purchase of land adjoining, and to be incorporated into the old Fort Griswold tract. This land is a part of the historic revolutionary | battlefield on Groton Heights, but has never been state property, as has the fort itself, This wise expenditure of money will greatly aid the state com- mission in charge of the property to carry out its plans for desired im- provements, including a memorial gateway, in this interesting locality. A contribution for Continental hall will be made at the coming congress. Anna Brewster Fanning chapter of Jewett City has erected a flag pole from which floats a fine new flag, near the chapter's memorial boulder at Old Patchaug. This boulder commemorates the lives and services of 17 revolu- tionary soldiers who died upon the field of battle, or while prisoners in the custody of the British. This chap- ter has presented several valuable books to the borough's public library, | and has celebrated various historic | days with interesting commemorative exerclses. ‘Anne Wood Flderkin chapter of Wil- limantic has contributed a $100 schol- arship for a boy at the Suffield acad- emy and $30 to the local Y.

About $25 have besn expended on the ‘Wolf Den property for roadway repairs and for a new flag to flout over the den. The public library has, as usual, been remembered with papers and magazines and new supplies of Liter- ary Art club pictures are hung there each month. Faith Trumbull chapter of Norwich. During the year this chapter has added. $311 to its fund for @ memorial foun- tain which is to be presented to the city of Norwich a few months hence, on’the 250tk anniversary of the found- ing of the city, John C.

Fanny Ledyard chapter of Mystic, ‘This chapter has given $30 to the Con- tinental hall fund, $25 towards a sch larship at the Suffield academy, $10 to the Southern Educational associa- tion for the education of illiterate whites. It has also responded gener- ously to an appeal for useful articles to be used in the industrial depart- ment of certain southern schools.
