Excerpt from Report of the Sixth Reunion of the Grant Family Association: At the Brevoort House, Manhattan, New York City, February 27, 1914 Dear Kinsman: A meeting of the Grant Family Association will be held at the Hotel Brevoort, Fifth avenue and Eighth street, Borough of Manhattan, New York City, on Friday evening, February 27, 1914, at 7 o'clock. The election of Officers, and the transaction of such other business as may come before the meeting will first be in order, after which the banquet will be held, the cost of which will be two dollars and fifty cents per cover. In spite of the long and unavoidable lapse of time since our last meeting, the Directors and the Reunion Committee count upon the loyal support of every member in this renewal of activities, which makes our association the pacemaker among family associations. Remember, it was the first family association to be incorporated in this country, and that as a family it has a record to be proud of. In individual cases, the name is known throughout the world, but there are numerous members who are well known in a smaller sphere and with equal credit, to themselves, the family, and the community in which they have made their abode. It is desirable that all who are members of the Grant Family Association should feel it incumbent upon themselves to do all in their power to promote a general family affiliation, and thus encourage the officers and committees to further effort in this direction. As stated in notice of meeting recently sent you by the Secretary-Treasurer, Senator Burton of Ohio, a former president of our association will be present, and address us, also Hon. Elijah R. Kennedy will be with us. In addition, several other prominent persons have signified their intention to be present, and some interesting talks may be expected.
