Page "lore" Paragraph 863

What was called an `` accidental meeting '' with Miss Packard in Washington turned her attention to Spelman.

Here was a cause she believed in.

After correspondence with Miss Packard and to the joy of Miss Packard and Miss Giles, she came to Atlanta, in the fall of 1888, to help wherever needed, although there was then no money available to pay her a salary.

She served for a number of years without pay beyond her travel and maintenance.
