Excerpt from Register of Members of the Society of Sons of the Revolution in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, 1903: With the Constitution and by-Laws and an Account of Its Work In accordance with the custom of the Society, a Register should have been published in 1901. Registers had been issued in 1893, 1895, 1897, and 1899, appearing every second year after the organi zation of the Society m 1891. When the time arrived for the publi cation of a Biennial Register in 1901, the Society was engaged in carrying out its plan for the Montgomery Memorial, the most important and extensive undertaking up to that time entered upon. As it was obviously necessary to curtail all expenses of a general nature, ln order to accomplish this project, the Board of Managers deemed it best to omit the issue of a Register for that year. A full account of the Montgomery Memorial, together with all corre Spondence on that topic, will be found. In the present volume, and will explain fully the reasons for the ultimate abandonment of the plan. The Publication Committee have followed the general arrangement of there'gister of 1899.
