It later turned out that at times Mrs. sherman had left cerlaln funds on deposit in a bank until a certain date In order that the home would not lose a penny of the interest; fur- ~ ore. that she always took - t care that all deposits on hand lied the banks before the sixth the month. In order the Interest ight accrue from the first. Thus was Mrs. dhorman‘s deaf ear to Mrs. Dovis' financial advice explained. Last but not least. a little matter. which since the merng has helped uncover a number of other facts. was brought up by Mrs. Davis. . She aspreosed a great indignation ‘ because of the fact that the board 'checks of a certain Inmate of the . Home were made out to Mrs. Sher- i man and not to Mrs. Davis. as chair- , man of the finance committee. it luld hero be explained that each mbor of the Home is required.

If there are no relatives. then some , King's daughter's" circle will take it . upon itself to pay the $8 each week. Well. anyway. Mrs. Davis was roundly criticising Mrs. Sherman be- cause the board checks had been sent to Mrs. Sherman and not to . Davis.

The whole trouble is said to have ‘ ' « more than fifteen years an the time that the question of ‘ . housing a number of aged 5.. . came before the W. 23h ills. the members decided , Quoting must really be done. , were about a doses women the community at the time who on I 2.: tbevsriouaCinloafI' Maud itwaabo- check for the total amount do. port these weasea In private u..- Many of them were feeble or really too ill to do their dam home- work routine. In short they could' not take care of themselves. lo, the King's Daughters formod a Union with the King’s lens for the sole purpose of erecting and main- taining a suitable home for those financially helpless women. Great discussions then areas with- i in the Union as to where the Home should be. its oils and its com. The majority of the women figured that a oot‘ago on the outskirts of the city. perhaps West Norwalk. where there would be peace and quiet and yet plenty of comfort. would be just the thing. They argued that since there were but a very small num- ber of women to be aided in this manner. a small house would fit the i bill and also their pocketbooks. Mrs. Davis. however. was not of the same mind at all. She argued that If the Union did not intend to erect a Home which would be worthy of Norwalk and a credit to the city. then it was no use bother- ing with the matter at all. She was very definitely against the cottage Idea. and. instead con- Jured up in the minds of the Union members visions of a palatial home for the Aged which would be via- iled by admiring travelers for miles around. Mrs. Davis and her followers won out In the end. In August, 1912. the Union pur- chased three acres of land on West. port avenue for the sum of ".500. During the summer of lili. the great Home was built. Individuals and organisations do- nated the furniture and fixings. The bedrooms and kitchen were furnish- ed by various circles of the King‘s Daughters. The Home chapter took care of the dining room. The Home was really beautifully furnished and it was a beauty spot 'in Itself. Set high on the hill. sur- rounded by wide sloping grounds. tlit white plllared house could not help but command attention and admiration. Opened On Mothers' Day It was formally opened on Moth- ers' Day. 1915. and as Mrs. Davis predicted. visitors came from far and wide to see it. It certainly was a credit to Norwallr. But the matter became a little ludicrous when the visitors learned that there were only 10 or ii ladies Installed in the Home and that it took it circles and several chapters. with a membership of well over 900 to maintain the Home. Word of this passed around the state until Norwalk became known as the city which boasted an Aged Home that required: “Nine hundred workers for nine old women." And still the circlts worked in dustriously on, under the direction of Mrs.‘ Davis and the ‘Home was kept running In fine order. Three rooms In the attic wore added and one In the basement In 1016. Con- stantly. gifts were coming In. gifts which added to the general appear— ance of the establishment and which maintained the Home in proper style. as the old furnishings wore out. The Home was Insured for eighty per cent of its value. The Home really was a beautiful thing. and Is now. The furnishings are good. In excellent taste: the rooms are large and airy: there is plenty of sllnllght. There is a huge reception room and a separate large bedroom beau- tifully furnished, for each inmate of the home. A good many members did not see the necessity of so much reception room. but thought if there were more bedrooms. more Inmates could be accommodated. Mrs. Davis maintained however. that there were enough bedrooms and Inmates. It is said that quite recently. she has been contemplating an addition to the reception room as she finds there is not sufficient rev ccptlon room when the Homo is thrown open to visitors. Then little troubles commenced. In some way the Home began to be known throughout the state. not as King‘s Daughters Home for the Aged. but as the Mrs. Davis's Home for the Aged. The members rather felt hurt over this. inasmuch as they had all worked so hard to put the idea across. but said nothing. Meanwhile. throughout the years. it became Increasingly difficult to find the money for the upkeep of the Home. The circles lived In a constant whirl of sales. entertain- ments and benefit affairs for the Home. Mrs. Davis too. began. after sever- al years. to feel the strain of keep- ing up the great expense for the handful of old ladies and decided. accordingly to the story. that the responsibility was wearing on her and that she had better resign and allow someone else to carry the bur- den for a while. Couldn't Quit As President But the plan didn't work. Every time that Mrs. Davis decided to re- sign. the members gave her a love~ ly luncheon. “an annual affair.” and kept her gently but firmly In the presidency. They felt that Inasmuch as Mrs. Davis had been rtsponslble for the huge Home when the ma- Jorlty of them we In favor of a lit- tle cottage. that she should stay right where she was and "finish what she had started" even If all the gilt of glory had worn off. And so It came about that Mrs. Davis found herself in a very MW liar position Indeed. where she was unable to resign as President Each time she attempted to vacate tn. presidential chair. she found herself right back where she h“ starter. note of presents. yes. but no relief. _ Perhaps another factor enter-Ills into the situation. a factor which prevented the members from allow- Ing Mrs. Davis to stop down. was the fear that they thesaalvee would never be able to run the home win- out Mrs. Daviaatthe head" torso many years had the prsddont "sold herself" to the women and made them believe tht they could not do without her. that they anally came to that m “solve.

Mrs. Davis Abdicatca And so at the annual luncheon of the King's Daughters Home for the Aged. held at the Royal James Inn. last May. Mrs. Davia' resignation was made known. A handsome present of a traveling case Olllllllf'tl and a little speech of "congratula- tion and appreciation on the part of the members for all that Mrs. Davis had done for them."—-and Mrs. lla- via had stepped down from Presidential chair. A few minutes later. It was an- nounced that Mrs. Davis lilid sent In a donation of use to the Home for the Aged. Mrs. J. Milton Co- burn then made a. little speech thanking Mrs. Davis for the dona- tion and stating that with the gift of 8250, Mrs. Davis automatically became a director of the Home for the Aged. Mrs. Davis afterwards told of the little incident as a grout Joke among her friends. She said that was why she .ad given the $250 as she didn't Intelld to be Ignored in the Home for the Aged Union. just because she had ceased to be president. Mrs. Davis. at the time. is said to have stated that she had a double reason for resigning: first. that she was tired of carrying the burden of the Home all the time.- and second, that she felt there was a great deal going on In the Union of which one. as President. heard very little. How— ever. she thought. If she sat on the sidelines for a while. she could find out a great deal more. Shortly after the episode of the annual meeting. Mrs. Dalia went abroad where she remained all sum- mer long. During that time she heard. more or less Irregularly froln the members of the Union. but did not particularly keep In touch with the doings in the Home. Upon her return to Norwalk this fall. she began her rounds of Inves- tigation. Mrs. Davis. it should be remembered now holds the office of chairman of the finance committee. In addition. she has lately taken over the press and publicity chair- manship. At any rate. the cit-president cen- aidered that her position as finance chairman entitled her to investigate and to criticize If she thought It necessary. everything pertaining both to the finances of the Home and to its general management. Thus did the storm brew for sev- eral weeks before the first board meeting of the season. the fourth Monday in Sept. which was formally called by the president. During those few weeks. Mrs. Davis had got in touch with a num- ber of the members of the Home. had decided. according to the story. that everything had "gone to t" In her-«absence. that it was time e took the reins in her own hands again. and that she would have quite a little to say at the first fall board meeting. This was told to her friends. the select few who knew long beforehand that there was going to be a fine "blowup" at the board gathering. Since the memorable board meet- Ing on the fourth Monday In Sep- tember. more and more details of the'trouble which has Iain dormant for so long. but which periodically bursts Into flame. are coming to light. She Kept 'Iticss Scared. For many years Mrs. Davis has ruled the women with a rod of iron and they have not dared to combat her. It Is said that Mrs. Davis. as a lawyer. has time and time again threatened . the women with law suits for slander. should they speak against her. And so. fearing her. and her knowledge of law. they have kept still. But now the breaking point ar- rives and Mrs. Davla' iron rod seems suddenly. to be very badly bent. Whether it will end In a clean break. whether it will just remain in the bent stage. or whether it will snap back Into place. to still a matter of doubt. Certain it to however. that the women are mad enough to do al- most anythiag. And that “any- thing” might well Include a change is' the ohirmanship of a certain mm One of the big quemioaa now be- fore the members is: Who Is sup- posed to be proudest. anyway? to it she who now sits In the premden- tisi chair or is it she who now oo- cuples a place on the “slices!
