Daughters of the King, the,

A religious society of the Protestant Episcopal Church, founded in New York City, Easter evening, 1885. It is often confused with the King's daughters (q. v.), a society from which it differs in many respects. Its chief purposes are to aid rectors in their parish work and to extend Christianity among young women. In 1900 the president of the council was Mrs. E. A. Bradley; secretary, Miss Elizabeth L. Ryerson. The office of the council is in the Church Missions House, 281 Fourth Avenue, New York City.
