FINAL MINUTES OF THIS SCHOOL YEAR

Green Mount

June 17th, 1880

We have been interrupted very much of late by our examinations and been obliged to give up our meeting for two weeks, but we determined we would meet again before we part perhaps some of us forever, but hope not. We took some time getting the account straight, and found we had $1.50 which we decided to send to the Foreign Mission. Lou played "The Battle of Prague". Mattie repeated the first verse cousin Lou taught her. It runs thus_____ "If ever you're inclinded to do aught by false, unkind or worthy blame, First find a spot where God is not, wherein to do the same." I think it is an excellent rule, and it would be a great deal better if would act up to it. Mattie Kate read " __she never filled in the blank__". The author appears to have possessed a very vivid imagination. Sallie played "Crown of Roses," very well with great expression. Vir was absent as Cousin Ruth has come home & is sick. Lucy was also away as she had to stay at home on account of having to start Charlie to Missouri. We are all delighted to hear that cousin Belle & all of aunt M. Lou's little grand children are coming soon, & that cousin Bess is coming too. It did us good to see how much pleasure it gave aunt M.L. Well, this is the last day that our "Society" will meet, for the session of 1880. It has been a pleasant session. We part, some of us I fear forever, but I hope if we never meet again on earth, that we may meet in that home above.

Many of the girls never played on Green Mount's Weber piano ever again...
and

the upstairs bedroom which was used as one of the dormitory rooms, has a closet with several hooks on the interior walls. Each hook is marked with a single initial. Probably these hooks were assigned to the girls for each to hang a dress on. The closet became empty once more as the Green Mount/Evergreen Society Young Ladies departed for their homes.
