The Llamarat a IN MEMORIAM We have here to record the death at Atlantic City, March 16, 1908, of Mrs. Mary Lyon Dame Hall, alumnae trustee since 1905. After her graduation at Mount Holyoke in 1870, she taught for some years in Oaho College, Honolulu, and later was married to Hon. E. O. Hall. Since her husband’s death Mrs. Hall has resided in New York and Detroit. She served several terms as president of Sorosis and was made president of the Michigan Mount Holyoke Alumnae Association. In this latter position and as trustee, Mrs. Hall proved herself devoted to the highest interests of the college, a generous giver and a wise friend. A feeling of personal loss must remain with those who have met her as a guest in the college halls and have felt the charm of her gracious presence. Among Mrs. Hall’s gifts to Mount Holyoke may be named the Mary Lyon Dame Hall Scholarship, established here in 1891, together with the recent bequest of $ I 0,000 toward the general endowment fund. Mrs. Hall also gave timely help in adding to the collections in Dwight Art Building. 9
