When Seneca became a station on the mnin line of thc Southern Railway they moved there where they becamo public-spirited citizens, bending all energy toward making the small hamlet into a town. Mrs. Cocinan possessed an unus ual degree of untiring energy and will power, and her accomplishments along civic linos were wonderfu, Even at this early period she was a firm believer In tho advancement ot woman. It was mainly through hoi inspiration along this lino that thc Once-a-Week Club was called to gether, and later that that culb.with her leadership, called the convention tn .Tune, 1 80S, which resulted in ibo formation of this magnificent organ ization, standing ready to honor her, and of which she was the firs? presi dent.

She was always greatly interested in tho education of the young peoplo of thc mountains. The aged and the poor of that section were often grateful for ber bounty. Through her Influence and gen I eroslty tho Once-n-Woek Club was enabled for years to koop traveling libraries circulating through Oconec and sevoral other counties.
