Indianapolis (IN) Freeman, July 8, 1905, p. 3.
NEW ALBANY, IND.
A delightful society event was the complimentary breakfast given last
Saturday by Mrs. Mary E. Washington in honor of her foster daughter, Miss
May Grundy, a junior of Livingston College who is at home for the summer
vacation. The graduating class of '02, Scribner High School, of which Miss
Grundy was a member, was present in a body. The menu was appetizing, amply
and admirably served. The guests included Dr. and Mrs. W. O. Vance, Mr. and
Mrs. R. W. Thompson, Miss Rowena Dorsey, Drs. S. C. Alexander and M. A.
Blackburn, Messr. Roy Rickman, Oliver E. Manuel, L. J. Demby and Rev. B. G.
Shaw. Brief speeches, abounding in wit, humor and a dash of philosophy,
were made by each member of the company, and Mrs. Washington responded most
eloquently to the cordial vote of thanks tendered her for her bountiful
hospitality. Mr. Thompson acted as toastmaster.
