Crowds Disrupt United Daughters of the Confederacy Session
In Richmond Virginia on November 7 a crowd of about 1,000 mostly women jammed into the Academy of Music for a United Daughters of the Confederacy session. Police cleared aisles as officers and infantry and militia aides tried to manage the crush. Delays delayed the start two hours while speakers and officials addressed the assembled delegates. The race for national presidency saw Mrs Virginia Putsigner McAlberry retire and four women named as entrants, including Mrs Megander of Paris Tennessee and Mrs Livingston Rowe Schuyler of New York both connected to ongoing controversy over a leader from New York City. The New York chapter is powerful within the organization despite regional tensions.
