Part of In Memoriam - Rachel Lloyd, Ph.D.

extracted text
Indeed, it was while working so assiduously at
these matters, that she experienced her first break
down, which came in an attack of partial paralysis,
which affected her right side, and from that time on,
she never fully recovered her former health and use-
fulness. But her indomitable will would not let her
give up for more than a year until at last realizing her
inability to properly fulfil all the requirements of her
position, she resigned and undertook less arduous
duties in a smaller school in Wisconsin, These few
lines, clipped from the Lincoln papers, help to show
the public regard for her.





Mrs. Rachel Lloyd left Sunday for Chi-
cago, where she will make her home in
the future. Dr. Lloyd is one of the few
professors who has the gift of always
seeming to take a personal interest in
cach one of the pupils and in consequence
there is not astudent who has had work
in the Chemical department who will not
feel a sense of loss at Mrs. Lloyd’s depart-
ure. In the long time she has been con-
nected with the University, Mrs Lloyd
has done a wonderful work in building up
the Chemical department; how large a
place she has filled will only be realized
when she is gone The love and good
wishes of all her pupils go with her to her
new home.
