 Miss Ellen F. PendIeton of Westerly, ! dean of Wellesley college, has secured ] a novel privilege for one of the pupils | that probably will not be accepted | Miss Bertha L. Robinson of Cambridge ! the unprecedented privilege of leave 1 of absence to be married. Miss Rob 1 inson had promised her fance to wed 1 in May in spite of the fact that she | course at Wellesley and the probability that the college authorities would re 1 quire her to withdraw as a student if she should become matron.
 Dean Pendleton became interested and laid the matter before the faculty | with the result that the fair junior was given a leave of absence from May 10 | for the balance of the college year, tember and completing her course.
