Ualkioii, N. C, Aug. 31, 18!)4.
The announcement of t'ie untimely
death, i . Chapel Hill of Miss Coriinie
Ifa rison, will lie read with deep regret
by the teachers of North Carolina. She
was one of the foremost women of the
Sim. . iu .d! that makes for good. Her
scholar ; papers and brilliant addresses
at the leaolicr : Assembly were among
Us ber-t contributions to educational ad
vancement, and her inspiring presence
will never bo forgotten, by those who
were privileged to Know her work.
Miss Harrison was a native of New
fJornp. the home ofcultivation and refine
ment in the east, which was the custom
of our fathers to call the Athens of North
Carolina.
She had taught with success in the best
:.clioo"is oi' Boston, and for several years
pi.st had I'ocn m charge ol the llemenway
sclu ', at Norfolk. With her attractive
Dei'S'inal t v and great talents, she took
rank w'.ih tho first of her profession 'n
this coo nrv.
AppohV.ed upon n committee charged
with a special mitlon, by the North Car
olina teachers Assembly m June last,
she wr.3 prompt in attendance at tho
Natioii.il Educational Association iu July
to discharge the lis!:, in behnll of h;r
state, and of the higher culture of wo
manhood. The writer had tiie privilege of hearing
her address. "What makes what mars
the teacher i" delivered beforo an audi
ence of more than seven thousand, in the
great auditorium at Asbu-y Park, em
bracing tho leaders of social aud educa
tional prog'ess in America. The masicry
of her subject, the felicity of expression,
anil g aco ot manner ol the ta r Southern
er, wdio lo-:i not one trait of the true wo-
mimliae,s el her Ci.rof man home captiva
ted that immense body, and the audience
hung upon the eloquent tongue until a
rave wave ot enthusiastic applause greet,
ed her modest farewell.
The writer does not recall in his re-
mouibrance a more perfect union depth
of intellect and graceful precision ofcx-
p 'ess.ou.
At the ''Kound Table'' conference of a
small g.onp of die thinkers and writers of
tins country upon certain prooiems in tne
psychology of education, and presided
over by President lie Garmo, of Swarth-
more Coi'ege, Miss liariisou asked a tew
incisive questions, and it is not too much
to sav, that upon being challenged her
self, tho wiiter was amazed to see how she
band'ed lotr.cate ques ons in mentul phil
osophy, and won the astonished and ad.
miring regard of ho men whose works
have Ion;; been tiie classics of-the modern
library ot teaching.
It is not ilw partiality of private friend
ship alou'j which prompts the declara
tion, that in her dealt, her profession,
and her be ,o veil native State have sustain
ed a great loss. Had her lite been spared
her lofty character and grent intellect
would have won national fame, in a high
er sphere of labor. By many a Southern
girl in the ranks of the educational army
her memory will bo cherished as one
whose great attainments blended with the
sweetest graces ot womanly reserve ana
refinement. And her brethren revereutly
lay the palm branch upon her new-made
grave. ... ,
