Page Three Williams asked if the RCHS has indicated a willingness transfer ownership of the picture. Beisswenger did not believe they wanted to relinquish ownership; and further stated she had asked the Board of Directors to be in contact with the Society; they said that nothing given to the RCHS was to be given to another Society.
