I should now request the First Vice President,

2

James Clark, and Second Vice President, Senator William

3

James, if they will please escort Mrs. H. Vernon Eney to

4

the rostrum.

5

Mrs. Eney insisted on a very, very special

6

seat in the balcony all during this Convention, and she

7

insisted on sitting there this morning. That is the

8

reason for the little delay.

9

Mrs. Eney, will you please come to the rostrum

10

assisted by Vice Presidents James and Clark?

11

(The Convention arose and applauded as Mrs.

12

H. Vernon Eney was escorted to the rostrum by Vice Presidents

13

Clark and James.)

14

HONORARY PRESIDENT TAWES : Now, I should like

15

to yield to the Chairman of the Committee for Special

16

Presentations at this time, Delegate E. J. Clarke.

17

DELEGATE CLARKE: Will Delegate Addie J. Key

18

please proceed to the rostrum with a token of our appre-

19

ciation for Mrs. Eney?

20

(Delegate Addie J. Key presented Mrs. H. Vernon

21

Eney with a bouquet of yellow roses.) (Applause)
