Miss Mary Nesbitt Miss Mary Nesbitt was born in 1877 at Georgetown, Illinois, and died at Georgetown on October 18, 1965. She was the only teacher during the first year of the thirty pupil grade school at Georgetown that later was to be- come Olivet Nazarene College. She taught school from 1907 to 1918. Miss Nesbitt taught in 1907-1908 with no salary. She was reimbursed to the amount of $175 at the Golden Anni- versary of Olivet in 1957. She desig- nated the money to be used for a scholarship fund. In memory of Miss Nesbitt and her brother, Orland Nesbitt, who was in- strumental in the founding of O.N.C., an upperclassman womens dormitory has been named Nesbitt Hall. She was present at the dedication of the dormi- tory. For as long as her health would permit, Miss Nesbitt was faithful in attending Founder ' s Day services each fall at Olivet. Give her of the fruit of her hands; and let her own works praise her in the gates. Proverbs 31:32

Unknown waves before me roll, Hiding rocks and treach ' rous shoal. Chart and compass came from Thee; Jesus, Saviour, pilot me. As a mother stills her child, Thou canst hush the ocean wild; Boisf rous waves obey Thy will When Thou say ' st to them, Be still! Wondrous Sov ' reign of the sea, Jesus, Saviour, pilot me. When at last I near the shore, And the fearful breakers roar ' Twixt me and the peaceful rest, Then, while leaning on Thy breast, May I hear Thee say to me, Fear not, I will pilot thee. Edward Hopper
