Scope and content:

A.L.S. Misunderstanding re Vice Regent rooms. Unfortunate that Mrs. Hudson put her name over door upstairs and not starting work in lower parlor or giving up room to Illinois. Mrs. Eve still insists she selected the parlor when Association first began furnishing the Mansion. Sorry Mrs. Sweat read the confidential letter to Mrs. Halsted. Mrs. Yulee has central hall and Mrs. Walker's room on other side. Hall left with original flooring. Comments on Mrs. Pitch's memorial gateway, brick walls from each side of garden to gate. Council gave Hollingsworth $100 gift and two weeks vacation. Council was pleasant, much work done, largest attendance on record. ER-18, p. 229
