A teacher in the Philadelphia girls
normal school tells story of girl of
humble parentage, who gave her
name as Bridget when she was first
enrolled. During her first year
Bridget changed to Bridgetta. Dur
ing her second year the first syllable
was dropped, and she became Eta.
That developed into Margaretta, and
when she received her diploma her
name was Marguerite. From Bridget
to Marguerite seems far cry, but
they do such things at the normal
| school.
