In Miss Scott's home, 713 Greene where she died Wednesday. She was 98. Miss Scott was principal of two Brooklyn schools in 1912 when the Board of Education ordered her retirement as the first employe affected by its newly enacted rule requiring the retirement of those who had reached 70. STOpi OF PROTEST The storm of protests raised at the time by friends, pupils and colleagues against the board's action revealed the reverence and esteem In which Miss Scott was held. She was described in an appeal by the Brooklyn Teachers Association as socially and profes sionally so superior that her retire ment would be a distinctive loss to the school system." Today a group of Miss Scott's for- mer pupils paid tribute to her mem- ory.

They prepared a statement which said: "She was an Inspiration to thou- of teachers and her Influence will continue through them. The late Franklin Hooper, former director of the Brooklyn Institute, called Miss Scott the best-loved teacher in our city." She was born on Sept. 25, 1841, In Catskill, N. and was graduated from the Rev. Dr.

Haig's Academy in Hudson. STARTED WHEN 18 In 1860 at the age of 18 she came to the then City of Brooklyn and won her first teaching position in Public School 7, soon transferring to 25. When Vassar College was established in 1865, she became a member of the first staff there, as a professor of mathematics. Two years later she returned to Brooklyn to serve in Miss Harrison's private school on Clinton and then returned to the public system at Public School 11 on Washington Ave. In 1879, largely because of Miss Scott's efforts, the "Central Gram- mnr KrhnnT" fhp firsf Vifah chnnl Brooklyn or Manhattan, was estab- lished, at Court and Joralemon Sts.

It was moved to Nostrand Ave. and Halsey St. later, and was renamed Girls High School. REASON FOR NAME In an interview with a Brooklyn Eagle reporter in 1931, Miss Scott laughingly explained that the high school was called a grammar school "to keep from exciting the taxpayers" who were unprepared for sucli a radical advance in education and educational costs. In 1885 Miss Scott was a moving spirit in the establishment of the first Training School for Teachers on Berkeley Place, the predecessor of the Maxwell Training School for Teachers.

She served as head of the school's faculty until 1904. On her retirement in 1912, Miss Scott was principal of Public School 140 at 60th St. and 4th an Institution with 2.000 students, and also principal of the Bay Ridge Evening High School for Women, which had 500 pupils. TAUGHT AT ADELPHI During her years at the Training School, Miss Scott also taught classes in psychology and pedagogy at Adelphi College. Adelphl conferred on her an honorary degree of Master of Arts.

Miss Scott's nearest surviving relatives are Mrs. Margaret Winters, a niece, and Alfred D. Scott, a nephew, both of Springfield, Mass. The burial is to be held Saturday morning in the Hudson City Cemetery, Hudson, N. Y.

Mrs. Lemmerman Will Aids Kin Elizabeth Lemmerman, widow of former County Clerk Fred G. Lemmerman, who died at her residence, 280 Vanriprhilt. Ave nn rw 3 lpfr an estate of less than sio ooo real 1 and less than $10,000 personal DroD- erty, according to the probate peti tion filed with her will in Surrogate's Court today. Mrs.

Lemmerman left specific bequests of $1,000 each to St. Luke's Lutheran Church and her brother, Konrad Mess, of 287 Clinton St, and of all her jewelry to her sister. Lillian J. Wetzel, of 296 Sterling Place. For Mrs.

Wetzel the decedent also left real estate at 329-331-333 Washington St. and 1-3-5-7 Myrtle In trust for five years, after which time the income is to go to three sisters-in-law. Of the residue she left one-fifth to her brother, Konrad, and four-fifths to her sister, who was named executrix.
