Portrait and illustration of the Stephen F. Austin hotel. [4] pp. . pp. 8vo, plain buff wrappers with an oval cut out of the center of the front cover to show most of the portrait; the rear outer wrapper shows evidence of having been glued-into an album Pat Morris Neff (18711952) was an American politician, educator and administrator. He was the 28th Governor of Texas. This dinner was given at the Stephen F. Austin hotel (which had opened the previous May) on Saturday, January 17th, 1925. The Toastmaster was Judge Walter Angus Keeling and the Guests of Honor were six past Governors, (including the disgraced James Pa Ferguson) and one Governor Elect, (Mrs. Miriam Ma Ferguson), the first woman to serve as a Texas governor and one of two women governors in the United States.A previous owner has written a pencil note at the bottom of the menu Neffs term expired 1/20, 1925 | I was there.The menu is rather mundane, an appetizer of Shrimp Cocktail accompanied by Administration Sauce is puzzling. On the other hand, Pineapple Fritters Hawaiian served with the Milk-Fed Chicken a la Neff sounds rather good.…
