But that first Congress found the city unprepared for the influx it brought.

So many of these institutations took! in and cared for men and women of prominence that the stigma was removed, and has remained removed over since.

On the heels of this vindication Miss Margaret Mann appeared upon the Knicker-becker scene and became the most famous boarding house keeper of the day. In fact, the height to which sho carried her name and her estab lishment probably never has been equalled since. It was, in a senso, famous and known for miles Jaround.
