Book excerpt: Excerpt from Beaumarchais and the American Revolution In the winter of 1906 - 1907, the General Society of the Daughters of the Revolution offered a prize of fifty dollars in gold for the best essay which should be submitted on any phase of the American Revolution. The competition was open to members of the class of 1907 in any of our colleges for women. The judges awarded this prize to Blanche Evans Hazard of Radcliffe College, and the gold coins, enclosed in a blue and buff case, were presented to her at the Class Day exercises of the Radcliffe graduates of 1907. By vote of the Society, the accepted essay was to be owned and published by the General Society of the Daughters of the Revolution, and it is herewith given to the public so that the younger and older students of American History may know more of the problems and patriotism of their revolutionary forefathers.
