Which founder was the first to enter the chapter for deceased brothers?

• A. Henry A. Callis
• B. Eugene Kinckle Jones
• C. Charles H. Chapman
• D. Vertner Woodson Tandy

Answer: (C)

Remember that chapters keep a memorial record for deceased brothers, and names are entered as each founder passes away. The one who was the first to die among the listed founders is the first to be entered into that chapter memorial. Charles H. Chapman died before the others, so he was the first founder to be entered into the chapter’s memorial for deceased brothers. The remaining founders were added later as their lives ended, in the order of their passing. This shows that such entries reflect the timeline of death, not who founded the organization or who contributed most.
