I love looking through historical records....
From the Kappa Alpha Order Journal of 1895.
In that cantle of the fraternity world, known as Richmond, Va., on the 9th of October, the Eleventh Biennial of Conclave of the Kappa Sigma fraternity held forth. It was opened amid a pyrotechnic display of eloquence that first and last proclaimed the idea that everybody was glad to see everybody, and that everybody was glad to be seen. The Mayor sent the keys of the city and the boys could stay out late and come in without disturbing the inhabitants. When Kappa Alpha held a convention there, the Mayor didn't extend us such hospitality; but perhaps he didn't have any keys at that time, for there were no gates in evidence. One sees from the account of the conclave contained in the November Caduceus that Kappa Sigma still clings to its relics of antiquity, and glories in the idea that somewhere, at sometime, in the old world Kappa Sigma was organized. Well, well, if it sheeps them, well and good.
