Excerpt from May Iverson Tackles LifeIN answer to many letters received during the serial publication of this book, I wish to say that the convent of St. Catharine's has no existence in fact. Its great walled garden, and the wide main hall, with countless little music rooms opening off it, are features of the convent from which I graduated many years ago. The river, however, to which reference is so often made, flows through the grounds of a convent in another State, Where I have spent my happiest hours; and the mound and the Shrines are in the grounds of a third great con vent in which my sister was a pupil.Of the girls, Mabel Blossom and May Iverson herself are the only ones drawn from life - as clearly as one can draw Who must look at her models through the mists of more than twenty years. To-day Mabel Blossom's children, their mother writes me, know May Iverson by heart.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

The Commencement exercises at St. Catharine's were over, and everybody in the big assembly-hall was looking relieved and grateful. Mabel Muriel Murphy had welcomed our parents and friends to the convent shades in an extemporaneous speech we had overheard her practising for weeks; and the proud face of Mabel Muriel's father, beaming on her as she talked, illumined the front row like an electric globe. Maudie Joyce had read a beautiful essay, full of uplifting thoughts and rare flowers of rhetoric; Mabel Blossom had tried to deliver her address without the manuscript, and had forgotten it at a vital point; Adeline Thurston had recited an original poem; Kittie James had sung a solo; and Janet Trelawney had played the Sixth Hungarian Rhapsody on the piano. Need I say who read the valedictory? It was I—May Iverson—winner of the Cross of Honor, winner of the Crown, leader of the convent orchestra, and president of the senior class. If there are those who think I should not mention these honors I will merely ask who would do it if I did not—and pause for a reply. Besides, young as I am, I know full well that worldly ambitions and triumphs are as ashes on the lips; and already I was planning to cast mine aside. But at this particular minute the girls were crying on one another over our impending parting, and our parents were coming up to us and saying the same things again and again, while Sister Edna was telling Mabel Muriel Murphy, without being asked, that she was not ashamed of one of us.
