MissBates'grave,Oak Grove Cemetery,Falmouth,Massachusetts.)  \natlarine Jee Bateg  \nDied in Wellesley,March 28,1929.(Data compiled by herself)  \n# Birth:\n\nAt Falmouth,Mass.,a village on the heel of Cape Cod,August 12,1859.  \n.(For Falmouth,see in“America the Beautiful”poems en-  \ntitled  \"Home,\"\"The Falmouth Bell,\"\"The Falmouth  \nChurch,\"and in \"The Retinue,\"\"When Cap'n Tom ComesHome.\")  \n# Ancestry:\n\nEnglish on the father's side;on the mother's,English with a strainof Irish(Dalrymple).The original immigrant was Clement Bates,a tailor,who arrived,with wife,five children and two servants,atHingham,Mass.,on the Elizabeth,1635.(See in The Retinue thepoem Lydd,and in Fairy Gold the poem Rebecca and Abigail,bothwritten for reunions of the Bates family.See also,for the Irishdescent,Our Family Crest in Fairy Gold.)  \n# Parentage:\n\nRev.William Bates,_Congregationalist,who died in Falmouth,his'second pastorate,September_10,1859,at the age of forty-three.He was the son of Rev.Joshua Bates,President of Middlebury Col-lege,Vermont ,1818-39,and of Anna Poor,his wife.The death ofthe new pastor,already beloved for his genial qualities and Christiancharacter,left his widow with the slightest material resources andwith four young children.Cornelia Frances Bates,daughter ofSamuel W.Lee of Northampton,Mass.,and of Electa Bacon,hiswife,was a graduate of Mount Holyoke in the time of Mary Lyonand remained an eager student,especially of Botany and thelanguages,until her death (January 21,1908)at the age of eighty-one.She was over seventy when she began the study of Spanish,acquiring an excellent reading knowledge.(See Becquer's RomanticLegends of Spain,translated by Cornelia Frances Bates and Kath-arine Lee Bates.See also in America the Beautiful the sonnets en-titled The Rest is Silence,in The Retinue the sonnet This TatteredCatechism,and in The Youth’s Companion,April 27,1922,the poemWhen Lincoln Died.  \n# Childhood:\n\nSpent in Falmouth,then twenty miles from any railroad,a friendlylittle village that practised a neighborly socialism without havingheard the term.The yillage school gave the rudiments of education,and the elder-children went on to Lawrence Academy across theway,but Katharine had not yet attained that dignity when,short-  \nly before her twelfth birthday,the family moved to Grantville(nowWellesley Hills).She was a shy,near-sighted child,always hidingaway with a book.It was in vain that unclothed dolls were givenher to beguile her into sewing.She would promptly spin a romancethat left them wrecked on a desert isle and obliged to wrap them-selves in raiment of oak leaves secured by thorns and grasses.  \n# Education:\n\nThree years in the Wellesley High School,from which she graduat-ed in 1874,and two years in the Newton High School,more ad-vanced,graduating in 1876,prepared Katharine for Wellesley Col-lege,opened in the autumn of 1875.The oldest son,Arthur LeeBates,later president of the Union Mutual Life Insurance Companyof Portland,Maine,had left home at sixteen to earn his livelihoodand help with the family budget.Though still a clerk on a smallsalary,he was able,by patient self-denial,to advance the moneyfor Katharine's college course.Entering Wellesley in 1876,she dulygraduated with the B.A.degree in 1880.During the college yearsshe had contributed a few poems and stories to weekly papers andmagazines.(See America the Beautiful for the poem Sleep,butlittle changed from the form in which it was accepted by Mr.How-ells for The Atlantic Monthly,in Katharine's sophomore year.)She was class-day poet at Wellesley as she had been at the NewtonHigh School,and two very small volumes of her verse,The CollegeBeautiful and
