Excerpt from Wellesley College Bulletin: Annual Reports, President and Treasurer, 1918-1919 I have the honor to present a report for the year closing June 30, 1919. As usual the supplementary reports of the Dean, the Librarian, and the Chairman of the Committee on Graduate Instruction are published in full. During the year death has removed one more member of the early faculty of the College, Miss Mary Elisabeth Horton, Pro fessor of Greek from the opening in 1875 to her resignation in 1887. Miss Horton died at her home in Wellesley, July 30, 1918, the last of the heads of department appointed by the founder. Miss Horton was largely self - taught, but she had the nature of the true scholar, - precision, enthusiasm, a keen and original mind, and power of intense application. As a resident of Wellesley, she was from the first cognizant of Mr. Durant's plans, and she entered with characteristic ardor into the realiza tion of them. Her students loved her Greek and they loved her. Year after year as they returned to visit the College, they sought Miss Horton for sympathy, for renewal of inspiration, and not less for the enjoyment of that delicate, Sportive humor which completed her vivid charm. In bequeathing to the College her estate on Washington Street, a gift most gratefully and reverently accepted, Miss Horton set the seal upon a life time of devotion. The College has also lost by death two active members of the teaching staff. On March 5 Caroline Angeline Hardwicke, Assistant Professor of Reading and Speaking, died in Jamaica Plain after an illness of several months. Miss Hardwicke came to the College as instructor in 1912 and received her promotion in 1917. She brought to her work the qualities of a logical and constructive mind, appreciation of aesthetic values, clear judgment, tireless energy, enthusiasm, vital interest in her students.
