MRS. DAISY McLAURIN STEVENS, PRES.-GEN. UNITED DAUGHTERS CONFEDERACY
Mrs. Stevens is a charming, womanly woman. Her ardor for Confederates and the Cause is constant. Other references to her are in the report. Her father, Anselm Joseph McLaurin, was reared on a Mississippi farm. At the age of sixteen years he enlisted in the Confederacy. At the close of the War he returned to school. In 1870 he married Miss Laura Ranch. In 1871 he became District Attorney, in 1879 a legislator, in 1895 Governor of his State, and in 1900 he was elected United States Senator. Losing health, he resigned because he was unwilling to take pay for a service that he could not perform.
