The monthly meeting of the Valentine Holt Society, Children of the American Revolution, was held last Saturday at the residence of Mrs. Samuel E. Dutton, 2511 Sacramento street. Notwithstanding the fact that it was May day anda there were many attraciions, the attendance was large and it was entjusiastic, showing that the young people of this organiza- tion are patriotic and willing to forego pleasures that are always dear to youth in order to show their veneration and love for the American flag, and those who fought to have it float.over tais country. Master Alberi Godfrey Raisch, son of Alfred J. Raisch and a descendant of Colonel Alexander Spottswood and Colonel Feilding Lewis, officers in the Virginia line o¥ the Continental army, was admitted to membership. The young lad is of the fifth generation in lineal descent from Colonel Feilding Lewis and Betty Washington, his wife (sister of George Washington, the father of his country), and of the sixth generation in lineal descent from Augustine Washing- ton and Mary Ball, the parentsof Wash- ington, The “ribbon distinction,” awarded to theValentine Holt Society by the National Children of the American Revolution | Congress hela in the city of Washington | last February, tor special patriotic work | performed by the society, a beautiful | badge, was displayed and a letter that ac- | companied it was read.
