It guides each decision, purchase, and policy; it is our foundation, guiding principle, and inspiration. We do not waver from it. We saw that mission accomplished in myriad ways last year from academic success and athletic prowess, to artistic expression and community empowerment. We celebrated the countless victories and Albert Throckmorton triumphs together. Likewise, we challenged each other to work through the inevitable difficulties and disappointments with kindness, respect, and civility. Those who know St. Mary’s often say that the school “feels like family,” that it is like no other community they know. We hear time and again that parents choose St. Mary’s because of an interaction or acquaintance with a St. Mary’s student or alumna whose character defines her as a St. Mary’s girl. For me, these stories are living examples of our mission at work in the world. It is an honor to lead a school respected nationwide for its academic excellence and commitment to the development of intellect and curiosity. I am equally grateful for the opportunity to lead a school that values and fosters faith, respect, responsibility, and courage. St. Mary’s thrived last year because you and 2,100 others invested in the mission, propelling the Annual Fund beyond the $1 million mark for the third consecutive year. Your personal philanthropy helped provide the resources that enabled us to nurture, teach, counsel, mentor, nurse, coach, protect, direct, and encourage 817 girls and young women. I hope you enjoy the following stories of those who believe in St. Mary’s and whose gifts bring it to life for every girl, every day. Sincerely, Albert L. Throckmorton Head of School 3 ST. MARY’S COMMUNITY FUND The St. Mary’s Community Fund is a student-run organization founded in 1998 for the purpose of educating young women about the importance of philanthropy through hands-on fundraising, community service, and grant-making. Since 1998, the group has raised more than $430,000 and funded more than 40 local non-profit agencies that benefit Mid-South children.

Kathryn and Elizabeth led the way in grant making, while Susan was liaison to the Lower School. Although they led and worked in different ways, they agree that the SMCF changed their lives.

  • Thomas Bancroft of Dedham and Reading, Massachusetts and Some
    1940] Thomas Bancroft and Some of His Descendants 215 THOMAS BANCROFT OF DEDHAM AND READING, MASS., AND SOME OF HIS DESCENDANTS Contributed by JOHN KERMOTT ALLEN, of Boston, Mass. 1. THOMAS BANCROFT, of Dedham and Reading, Mass., a native of England,* born about 1625,t died at Lynn, Mass., 19 Aug. 1691.t He married first at Dedham, 31: 1 mo. 1647, ALICE BACON, who died 29: 1 mo. 1648, daughter of Michael Bacon;§ and secondly, at Dedham, 15: 7 mo. 1648, ELIZABETH METCALF, baptized at St. Benedict's, Norwich, England, 20 Sept. 1626, died at Reading 11 May 1711, aged 85 years, daughter of Michael and Sarah (Ellwyn) Metcalf. (See REGISTER, vol. 6, pp. 171-173; vol. 78, p. 64.) The exact date of Thomas Bancroft's arrival in the Massachusetts Bay Colony is unknown. He may have come with his brother John Bancroft in 1632. He was made fatherless in England in 1627, but as his stepmother lived until 1639, it is probable that he remained in England rather than, when but ten years old, make the migration to America with his brother. The death of his stepmother in 1639 in England would have left him free to follow his relatives to America in 1640. In his "History of Lynn" Newhall includes "Lieut. Thomas Bancroft" among the newcomers in 1640. Thomas Bancroft, the subject of this article, was then but eighteen years old and could scarcely be correctly described as "lieutenant." However, he ac­ quired this title later, and was thereafter always r-eferred to as "Lieutenant Thomas Bancroft" or as "Ensign," so it is probable that he did come to Lynn among the newcomers in 1640.

St. Swithin’s Day, (July 15), a day on which, according to folklore, the weather for a subsequent period is dictated. In popular belief, if it rains on St. Swithin’s Day, it will rain for 40 days, but if it is fair, 40 days of fair weather will follow. St. Swithin was Bishop of Winchester from 852 to 862. At his request he was buried in the churchyard, where rain and the steps of passers by might fall on his grave. According to legend, after his body was moved inside the cathedral on July 15, 971, a great storm ensued. The first textual evidence for the weather prophecy appears to have come from a 13th- or 14th-century entry in a manuscript at Emmanuel College, Cambridge. You can find lots more history about him, but he is perhaps one of the more commonly heard of saints, even if its only the legend about the weather.
