Frances Haven Moss reflected on the founding in a 1912 Crescent article that is today's blog post, if you're interested in reading it.
Thanks for sharing! I always enjoy reading your history posts.

Frances's great-great-great granddaughter was just elected to the executive board of her chapter, on Founders Day!
