And one there was, her talents used In teaching district school. Well versed in Browning was the child Who came beneath her rule. But Mercer cared not long to be A wielder of the birch, Her writings show her interest deep In psychical research. ' Twas thought that Florence Fletcher ' s voice Would make her choose the stage, But architecture, strange to say, Doth all her thoughts engage. She ' s won more fame than e ' er she ' d gain Within the calcium ' s glare, In great demand she finds her plans Of castles in the air. That dark-eyed lass, lone Bedell, The art of music chose ; And after years of study hard, To prominence she rose. No longer does lone declare She ' s wedded to her art, Since Cupid with unerring aim Sent home a fiery dart. And though they know that on thro ' life Their paths must be apart, A love for Abbot and the girls Lies deep within each heart. The dear, old school has many friends, But none you ' ll find more true Than they who formed the senior class Of nineteen hundred two.
