MARGUERITE CAPEX HEARSEY, Principal A.B. Hollins College; M.A. Radcliffe College; Ph.D. Yale University We have indeed missed Miss Hearsey this vear during her leave of absence from the school. Her presence and guid- ance were always a help and inspiration in our lives, both at Abbot and away. As she returns from a well-earned rest, we want to welcome her back to Abbot where she will always be loved and sincerely respected. Our hearts were with her during her absence and are filled with joy now that she is returning. [6]

DEDICATION For her lively spirit, and because of her readiness to encourage us; for her warmth and friendliness which have made our Senior year one of our best years at Abbot; for her sincerity and complete understanding; and because she has been cheerful and sympathetic always, we, the Senior Class, gratefully dedicate our yearbook to Miss Dorothy Duff. 121816

MISS TITTLE On Miss Hearsey ' s departure for her leave of absence from the school. Miss Lucile Tuttle, a former teacher in the English department at Abbot, returned to us to become Director of Resi- dence. At the very beginning of the year we marveled at the ra- pidity with which Miss Tuttle learned all our names, and as the year progressed we also saw how quickly she fitted into our lives and became to us a friendly, sympathetic and understanding adviser. She has gained our con- fidence and affection during this one short year among us. MISS SWEENEY In the absence of Miss Hear- sey, Miss Sweeney, in addition to her customary responsibilities as Director of Studies, has done a praiseworthy job as Acting Principal. The whole school has known a verv real sense of security in her quiet direction not only of our intellectual growth, but of our approach toward school life. Through her generous guid- ance we have been ever aware of the twinkling humor with which she has lent sparkle and gaiety to the serious moments of our Senior vear. [7
