In the early years, the class crews used to row on the lake and sing at sunset, in their heavy, broad-bottomed old tubs; and from these casual summer evenings "Float" has been evolved Wellesley's water pageant when Lake Waban is dotted with gay craft, and the crews in their slim, modern, eight-oared shells, display their skill.
During the war of 1914-1915, she had charge of the linen room in the military hospital at Aix-les-Bains. On March 8, 1899, the trustees announced their election of Wellesley's fifth president, Caroline Hazard. In June, Mrs. Irvine retired, and the new administration dates from July 1, 1899.
On arriving at General Wellesley's camp, Harry reported himself to that officer for service. "I am very glad to have you with me, Captain Lindsay.

The first Tree Day was Mr. Durant's idea; no one was more awake than he, in the old days, to Wellesley's poetic possibilities.
