when I was there, and quite exhausted me. There is a girl here by the name of Rhodes who is only seventeen and has read Caesar, 8 orations of Cicero, 8 books of Virgil, Sallust and the Germania and Agricola of Tacitus. She is studying Levy, German, Astronomy and French, and is going to take up Eng. Lit. in order to have her time occupied. Moreover she is a very thorough, careful student. Likewise Miss Glover is something remarkable. She went through the Lawrence Schools without making a single failure in any of her classes. She does recite wonderfully - She told me that the last part of the time she studied Xenophon that they took six pages a lesson and were expected to parse as accurately as if it had been six lines, which she coolly said "made it very hard." I like her very much she looks like Hattie Goodell - Miss Starr is coming in after study hours to read over her Greek lessons - I like her better each time I see her - Isn't it funny that her name is Sarah? She is an only child and an orphan. Wears deep black, and has no relative nearer than a cousin and only two of those. She admires Sara's picture very much and always asks me something about her when she comes in here. Also she takes a deep interest in mud turtle, which is thriving finely and an object of much interest
