Girls' High School,

Gloucester,

let April 1913.

Miss Gilbert was Assistant Mistress in this

School from September 1910

to July 1911, and I am happy to testify to the conscientious way in which

she carried out the duties of her position. As the school numbers over 300

girls from the age of 5 to 19 years, the work is not light, and a mistress

must be both earnest and efficient to be at all successful.

Miss Gilbert's principal subject was French which she taught in several

classes, but she also taught History and English in Liddle and Upper formis

she spared no pains in the preparation of her lessons and the results of her

teaching were good. She was able to maintain good discipline without undue

offort or friction and was liked by her pupils. Miss Gilbort was uniformly

punctual and methodical in her work, a lady in every sonso of the vord, loyal,

and always willing and anxious to de ell in her power to promote the inter-

esto of the school.

Sho loft entirely by her own desire (to go abroad) and I have every con-

fidence in recommending her as an efficient and useful kistress.
