Miss Tillie H. Moore had served ns Matron of the Margaret Morrison Carnegie College from 1908 until her illness, which took her from active service in September, 1932, and in that capacity had known intimately most of the students in attendance during those years. M iss Moore’s office in the basement of the Margaret Morrison building was a favorite retreat. The Carnegie Handbook for many years contained a rather formal paragraph or two—“In case of illness call for medical aid at Miss Moore’s Office ’— and Miss Moore’s name was a familiar one on the bulletin hoards when lost articles were advertised. Probably not one student in a hundred know Miss Moore as a “matron” but simply as “Miss Moore,” or, in earlier years of the school, as “Aunt Til.” Miss Moore’s death on January 16th after a long illness brought to an end a long and cherished connection with Carnegie and particularly with the Margaret Morrison College.
