This is the last day of the Constitution Week celebration, commemorating the signing of the constitution back in 1787. Melrose Bagwell of Fordyce is a member of the Trace Chapter of the D-A-R.. and in an interview on KQ-102.3's South Arkansas Today, Melrose said the 1st  amendment to the constitution was made by George Mason.

Mrs. Bagwell told us how you become a member of the Daughters of the Revolution.
