O knihe

Excerpt from History of the Cincinnati Chapter of the Daughters of the American Revolution: April 27, 1893 April 27, 1908

The first question to be decided in writing this history was how to treat it. Possibly the best plan may not have been chosen. But the one adopted was to give our work by subjects, each as a whole, instead of reporting their progress through months and years, in connection with the other work of the Chapter.

Lack of Space necessitates the omission of many things, as, for instance, mention of the interesting and valuable presents given to the Chapter-loving notices of respect to our deceased members, etc., etc.

And, again, the history gives the work of. The Chapter more than the work of the members, for it would be impossible to mention all who have done good work, even if such lists were accessible. So the plan has been followed of mentioning only the chairmen or heads.

This treating of our work by subjects has sometimes left a regency apparently bare, when, in fact, it was full of activity; but all plans had objections.

A full list of the officers of the Chapter and of the members of the Board of Management is placed in an appendix, and also a list of the papers and recitations given before the Chapter by its members and by outsiders.

With these explanations, and begging your indulgence for all imperfections, we present to you the history.
