Carter of New Bedford, was sent by the national board of the Y. W. C. A. as first general secretary to supervise the erection and equipment of the building and remained for more than two years.

She was succeeded by Mrs. Martha A. MacAdoo, the present secretary, who has served nine years. The Phylls Wheatley Y. W.
