Splendid Disciplinarian.
In 1852 Miss Spelman, described by
her superiors as a splendid disciplin-
arian and a perfect teacher, became
assistant principal of the school. Rock
efeller, absorbed in business, took the
books of his firm to her of an eve.

his affairs. Both of them were inter
ested together in church work, too, she
as a Congregationalist, he as a Bap.
fist; and neither ever attended a
dance or the theater.
Young Rockefeller prospered be-
yond his fairest hopes. AS soon as he
felt that he could ask her to become
his wife he did so. They were mar
ried OH September s, 1854, the eve of
her 25th birthday, and started to keep
house in {" little two-story brick resi-
dence on one of Cleveland's side
Streets. Upon her marriage, she be-
oeame a Baptist and to her religion and
her home she devoted her entire time.
"To be a good wife and mother is
the highest and hardest privilege of a
woman" was one of the sayings &C.
credited to her by the little circle of
friends she knew at this time. The
borders Of her world were her home
Her yhole life was wrapped up in her
husband and children. She avoided
all social functions and Joined nc

When Mr.. Rockefeller's wealth was
mentioned in seven figures they left
their first home for a residence re-

teller reared her four children; a fifth
died in infancy.
.&The training given the Rockefeller
children by their other inns declared
to have been almost Spartan. AL
though the Rockefeller wealth increas
ed in leaps and bounds there was only
one carriage and a horse cared for by
a man, who acted as both coachmar
nd hostler. These were used mostly
Sundays on the trip to church. Mrs

still insisted on doing much Of the
work herself.

She also supervised every detail Of
the care and training of her children

minds the lesson of thrift. It is re
