191 yjy ILLIWOCO KK 1-W.C ROSEMARY ' S FOR REMEMBRANCE. The late suniniei days of last year marked the passing of two elect ladies wlu) wei ' e intiniately associated with the College in its early history. Mrs. Matilda S. Andrews, wife of Rev. Reuben Andrews, president of the College for one year, 1855-56, was a lady of rare grace and sweetness of char- acter, and yet was positive and strong in her convictions regarding all matters of faith and duty. She was quietly preparing for a homeward journey from the summer ' s stay in Michigan, when the gates of the heavenly home opened to hei , and she entered in. At the home of her daughter, in Denver, Mrs. Lydia C. McCoy, widow of Rev. Asa McCoy, who had presided over the College two years, from 1856 to 1858, received the summons that called her to her coronation for a well-spent life. Every demand that life brought to her was met with ready, glad response, and with buoyant faith this mother in Israel heard the distant call. No former president of the College is numbered with the living. Mrs. W. H. DeMotte, widow of President DeMotte, resides in Indianapolis. Mrs. W. F. Short is with her daughter, Mrs. Wadsworth, in Providence, R. I. 26

1915 ILLIWOCO I.W.C. Tlie name of the praeceptor irliose uisdom has blessed the house. ' In those days there was added much substance to the College, and its bor- ders were extended. Builders came with bricks and stone and mortar and added other chambers and a house of music, wherein were all manner of musical instruments and a place of assembly, where with the organ and the stringed instruments, all could unite their voices in the melody of song. And the name and the fame of the house of the Woman ' s College spread abroad until so many were the fathers who sought there a place for their daughters, that the counsellors were constrained to once more summon the builders together to raise a house greater than any yet built, and to it they gave the name of the preceptor whose wisdom had blessed the house and strengthened its foundations for all the years to come. ■. : THE MAMB:0F.r ' ,-: -?
