Description
Georgia becomes the last state needed to ratify the 13th Amendment - ending slavery in the US, President Theodore Roosevelt states his corollary to the Monroe Doctrine, and the Irish Free State is born. The birthday club includes Cornelia Meigs, Ira Gershwin, and Stephen Wright - with a reading from Edith Wharton's "The House of Mirth."
