Almost every page is filled with handwritten warm wishes of friendship pithy phrases and short poems such as "Not like the rose shall our friendship wither but like the evergreeen live forever" and "Our school soon will end. And I am going away. But try to remember your friend at some far distant day." "Is there no other tie that binds Has love the only claim Yes there is one that binds us fast And friendship is its name." Many of the inscriptions are dated to months in late spring or winter when academic semester would conclude and students would travel to their hometowns to visit with family. "Dear Mary May guardian angels their soft wings display To guard my friend from every dangerous way May health and happiness your steps attend May you always have an never want a friend In every state of life may you most happy be And when you're at a distance thing of me." "In future years when thou shall see Thou lines that I have penned Oh then may memory bring to view The image of your loving friend." "Something you wished me to write So something it shall be And when you think of something Think of me." "As gold more splendid from the fire appears So "Friendship" brightens by the length of years." "Twine thy brow with a lofty wreath with a wreath made not of glittering jewels from some far off mine." Some classmates listed their hometowns along with their autographs including places as far away as New York City and even Canada. The Golden Hill Seminary was founded in 1856 as a boarding school that would provide a moral literary and domestic education for young ladies. An extensive collection of autographs notes and well-wishes from classmates at a boarding school for young ladies. <br/><br/>Women's colleges proliferated in the mid- to late- 19th century to fill the void created by their exclusion from most institutions of higher education. The prevailing notion that women were too delicate for a rigorous academic education was openly challenged when Elizabeth Cady Stanton spoke at the Seneca Falls Convention of 1848 "Man's intellectual superiority cannot be a question until woman has had a fair trial.When we shall have had our colleges our professions our trades for a century a comparison then may be justly instituted." Young women were quick to step up to the challenge; as quickly as female colleges opened they filled up. This document dates only from 14 years after Seneca Falls. unknown books
