Yes, now we have all those safeguards in place so our history is kept intact, but way back when there were probably no archives and Headquarters and ritual safes. Most likely what happened was when the original Alpha chapter of Delta Delta Delta closed, all the items either got split between the remaining members or were all given to one person to keep. It got put away somewhere and forgotten about until now when someone found it, knew there was a market for it and decided to sell it.

Unfortunately, Kappa Kappa Gamma no longer has most of their original founding documents. Like many GLOs, our Alpha chapter was forced to close by College officials not long after our founding and much of the notes and records of those early meetings were either lost or destroyed by fire. About a year ago, a letter of the official dissolution of the Alpha chapter to Monmouth college came up on eBay. It's funny how things just show up and I agree, some of the more historical items could very possibly be stolen.

I sincerely hope that those collectors of GLO items understand this document absolutely needs to be returned to Delta Delta Delta for the sake of their heritage and not kept for personal gain. I also hope they are not bidding just to bid the price up as some are fond of doing on other items.
