Poughkeepsie Eagle-News, Tuesday, August 13, 1918

“Rock City:  Some of this place attended the lawn fete at Hoffman Inn Thursday evening. Friday Evening the Red Cross Society met at t he home of Mrs. Henrietta Morehouse. A very pleasant evening was spent and officers for the  new year elected.” – Old Fulton Post Cards

I don’t recall how I made the connection between the Lawn Fete and the Red Cross, but I’m pretty sure that the back of the image was marked Red Cross 1918 or something similar.
