In her will, she left $125,000 to four colleges, Radcliffe, Wellesley, Smith, and Bryn Mawr; the bequests were demonstrative of her long-lasting interest in the advancement of women's rights, and her belief that women were the equals of men.
No seu testamento legou 125 000 $ a catro colleges: Radcliffe, Wellesley, Smith e Bryn Mawr, doazóns coas que demostraba o seu perdurable interese no avance dos dereitos da muller e a súa convicción de que as mulleres eran iguais ós homes.
