Subsequently the child was a student with Professor Babcock, on Eighteenth street.

Genevieve remained in the university two years, keeping second place in a class of thirty boys studying Greek. Thence, well equipped in classics and mathematics, Genevieve went to Vassar, where she immediately arose to distinction by reason both of natural talents and unusual accomplish ments. Her health began rapidly to fail and at the end of a year she was obliged to withdraw. The principal, Miss Terry, wrote: I regret that Miss Jones must leave us, as Vassar would have been very proud of her.
