{126} Since this essay was written, I have been sincerely delighted to
find that my wishes had been anticipated at Girton College, near
Cambridge, and previously at Hitchin, whence the college was removed: and

before the London Association of School-mistresses in 1866, on “Physical
Exercises and Recreation for Girls,” deserves all attention. May those
who promote such things prosper as they deserve.
