Page 34, Whhby Free Prou, Weckiesday, June 7. 1M9 CWri bsotIos jIrious ast Massey donation made possible Trafalgar addition By Bria Winter, Towa of Whltby Archivist One hundred years ago, a generous gift from Toonto's Mlasayfamily made possible the constrution of Frances Hal at the Ontario Ladies' College (now Trafalgar Castle School). The construction of Frances Hall, which was named - after Hart Mass.ys daughter, iàllian Frances Masey, was part of a plan by the principal Rev. Dr. John JmeY a re, te turn the ichool inte a female univeruity affiliated with the University of Toronto. In 1893, the principal found that lho had te reject applications from American students because there was net enough room at Trafalgar Castle. The board of directors set out te rais. $50,000 but by the end of 1894 subecriptions amounted te only $36,000 te build a new wing that would link the original castle with the prmnipal's residence te the south, nOMw as « The Cottage.' With prospects for continuing the fumd-raising drive uncertain, a surpris donation from a wealthy Toronto industrialist saved the prcdject and assured copetian of the addition i less thna year. On March 7, 1895, Hart A. Masay, president of the Massey Manufacturing -Company, the largeat maker of farm machinery in the world, prmsed a gift of *10,000 once the college had raised *40,000. The grateful directors unani- mnously elected Massey te the board of ODntario Ladies' College and announced that the addition would be narned the 'Lillian Masy EHall' after Massy's only daughter. LILLIAN FRANCES MASSEY «TREBLE Whitby Archives photo As a member and supporter of the Methodist Church, Massey' would not aliow card-playig, dancing, alcohol or tobacco in bhis home, and restricted bis daughter's social life se, muchi that she did not maMr until after ho died. , However, ho alo omm a characteristic of many wealthly Méthodiste -- a sense of obligation te, use bis money for' the betterment of bis fellow men and women. Massey bad already prvded Toronto with Massey hal andý the Fred Victoi Misson, and with bis special interest in education, had made generous gifla te Victoria College; Albert College, iately on a 'three-sýtory wing which was to include a dfining room, concert hall to seat 400 people, a itchen, and dormatories and baths on the upper floor. On June 19, 1895, special trains brought a hoet of ,dignitaries from Toronto to attend the layng of the corner atone for Franicesal. Geor-ge A. Cox, president of the Ontario Ladies' College board of directors,, presented a silver trowel te Iàllian Frances Masey, who asaisted mi prading the mortar. Hart Massey, although aged and feeble, delivered an address to the large crowd. He compared the modemh facilities of the college with what female students had te contend with 50Oyeas before, and statedh "What a magnrnicent homne these young lady students have." Frances Hall, as the new bilding was eventually called, was completed during the summer and fali of 1895. Franis Hall, construction.
