Mrs. Mary Cecilia Goucher. 0 No event in the history of our college has touched as manyhearts as the death of Mrs. Mary Cecilia Goucher, the beloved wife of our President, which occurred Friday, December nineteenth, nineteen hundred and two, at her home, Alto Dale. She was the daughter of Dr. John Fisher, originally of Cecil County, Maryland. Dr. Fisherxwas connected with the Methodist Episcopal Church and its work, and his daughter became a member of the same church at the age of eighteen. When afterwards she came into possession of her fatheris estate she used it in fur- thering the activities of the church especially its missionary enterprises. In 1877 she was united in marriage with the Rev. John Franklin Goucher, and their years together were spent in perfect companionship because of their similar tastes and aims. They traveled extensively together in Europe, Egypt, Algiers, Alaska, Mexico and Cuba. There was a beautiful fellowship in ideals existing between them, manifesting itself in harmonious Christian endeavor, particularly in their comprehensive benevolence, for they recognized their steward- ship under their Divine Master. Mrs. Goucher fully realized the necessity for womanis education in order to qualify her for womanis workethe necessity for self-development and adaptation to every sphere in which she might be placed. These ideals have become those of our college, and their realization is our constant aim. Her rare personality, so impressive and sweet, defies analysis. All those with whom she came in contact were deeply impressed by her strength of character, which was united with a gentleness growing out of loviug-kindness and broad Christian sympathy with all mankind. In her home she Was the center and guiding spirit of a loving circle, controlling it with rare tact, and dispensing a hospitality as generous as it was sincere, while in her more public rela- tions she preserved a womanhness and dignity that perfectly expressed the calm sweetness of her character. The pure light of love shown from her face, and her sunny smile, so full of hope and helpfulness, was encouragement for a days work. Her life is an inspiration to earliest endeavor for the best, the enduring things, the great truths for which Christianity stands; and, in her death we realize how persuasive was her in- fluence. We give our heartfelt sympathy to him who lived in such perfect comradeship with her, and to her daughters, our companions, who have lost a mothefs loving guidance. n tt My beloved spake, and said unto me, tRise up, my love, my fair one, and come awayH
