The most tragic event ever associated with Lambda was the fire of 1890, started at the praeceptress’s party for birthday girls. A Mother Goose cap, made of paper and tufted with cotton, took fire from a gas light. Two girls died that night and another later; five others were badly burned. The whole college mourned. | The most tragic event ever associated with Lambda was the fire of 1890, started at the praeceptress’s party for birthday girls.
